dustries.
Lead poisoning is no, so terrible a disease as "phosyjaw Often
the los OF health is 5 o gradual workers do not realize thar il is caused
by their occupation. Great waste of human life goes on because of
ignorance of the cause
Studies IN Europe have shown the poisoning is largely pre-
Nentaoie, and legislation has been enacted for its prevention. There
has been no specific legislation in the United States. except in Illinois.
DIR. Alice Hamilton made the studies of the factories manufacture
ing white lead in the United States. Ii is interesting to note she
combines the housekeepers instinct with her scientific research. Lead
poisoning is largely due 10 dust. She speaks Of the lack of ordinary
housekeeping. when it happens tina; great heaps of the poisonous stuff
are allowed to lie about, exposed TO drafts and the passage of workers
10 and fro.
Careless management of a beautiful new factory brought about
such a condition of things that during the fourth and fifth months
OF It's operation eleven men out of a payroll of fifty developed severe
lead-poisoning In contrast TO this. one of the oldest factories. EN-.
ploying seventy men. had only one case during four months. The
difference, DIR. Hamilton says. could not be attributed TO ANYTHING
except difference in management and control.
Among the standards she lays down for good construction of a
white lead factory are light enough TO show dust and dirt. abundant
and well distributed water supply. $ the floors can be easily sprinkled
and efficient dust-collectng system.

14-INCH GUN EXPL0DES
Gives Way Under First Full
Pressure Test at Sandy Hook.

A l4-inoh coast defence gun that was
being tested at the Sandy Hook proving
grounds yesterday was badly damaged at
the first shot Of the day. A part OF the
muzZle was ripped off and blown dis
tance OF about a hundred yards. striking
the railroad tracks and tearing up the
ground. while the breech block was blown
several hundred yards. The officers and
men had gone into bombproofs before
the gun was fired and no one was injured.
Several small buildings were damaged.
The gun was resting on a temporary
carriage. which was also damaged. IT
had been fired four times before yester-
days accident. and after each test there
was nothing to show that 1t had been
weakened.
Only one soldier was in any way exposed.
This was Michael Brennan, who was
standing near the gun carriage. He was
thrown several feet. landing on his hands
and knees In the sand.
An examination showed that the explo-
sion had ripped the steel jacket OF the
gun. but no one would venture an opinion
as to the direct cause OF the damage.
The gun was the first constructed OF
it's type. and n In the intention OF the
government to tortify the Panama Canal
with this style or ordnance. The cost OF
the piece was about $4,000. II will have
TO be almost entirely reconstructed.
