Bad Practice

1T is bad practice to steal rides on mov-
ing trips. If the nature of your work does
not necessitate your riding cars, stay
off them. Many state laws and mine
rules forbid the riding of trips by any
persons but those whose work has to do
with the haulage work except in special
trips at certain times of day.
I'm riding in these trips certain precau-
tions should be taken. Cars should be en-
tered only while at rest. Many persons
are injured jumping on moving trips. III
the hauage is electric, enter the cars from
the side opposite the trolley and sit in
such a position that your head will be on
the side away from the trolley. 1t is good
practice to sit low and arms and hands
should be kept within the sides of the
car DO not ride on the top of the loco
motive. Under no circumstances should
explosives be carried when riding on an
electric haulage trip. Many serious acci-
dents have occurred by powder being ig-
nited by the open lamps of the miners
riding in a trip. There is also danger
OF the explosives eing ignited by. electric
current which is almost constantly pass
| ing through the drawbars. car irons and
car Wheels particularly when the locomo-
| tive is sanding the rails. Several very
| serious accidents have occurred in just
| this way.
sSe that the state law In regard to man
ways wide side of the road, shelter holes
clean roads. etc, are rigidly obeyed. DO
not allow the miners to ride on the haul
age trips unless authorized by the man
agement under the proper precautions
| Guards should be put on trolley wires al
! all points where men must pass under
them and preferably at all places where
men must travel. Have the track inspect
| ed frequently. that bad places can be
repaired avoiding the possibility of a
wreck. Provide a light for the end of al
\ trips. Have a drag or other safety de-
vice on the rear of every trip ON the
| slope

inspectors to keep constant surveil-
lance over the operations of the mines.
Our department will of course continue
earnestly to do all 1t possibly can in
that direction. For the good of all we
desire to bring out efficiency, to i'm
prove the working conditions, to util-
ize every means to avoid accidents and
to save human lives
Supervision and inspection, educa-
tion and instruction, discipline and Wig
lance are the only antidotes for the
causes of avoidable accidents in coal
mines. Try the safety instructor and in
spector at your mine and help put Ala
bama at the head of the list for low

Duty of Operators

ut Is your duty to humanity to pre-
vent loss of life and limb of your en-
ployes occurring through ignorancel
Never let them say we did not know
and If a man then insists upon com
hitting suicide, don't let him do it on
your premises Fire him first The
records show that the cause to which
the most frequent fatalities are at
tributable is falls-of-roof. The effective
way to remove the cause, or, at least
to diminish the toll, is to employ con-
slant vigilenee and an efficiency of
higher standard than is possessed by
the average mine employe. To maintain
an eternal watch on the man in close
proximity to the working faces will
always accomplish very much There is
no real reason why we should not pro-
Iduce at least from three to four hun
dred thousand tons of coal each year
for each lift lost, which would place
our operations on a parity with other
important producing states-because it
cannot be truthfully said that natural
conditions and hazards with us are
worse than those in the other coal
fields The natural advantages here are
equal to those elsewhere; therefore. as
the record stands, 1t would seem that
we are not employing the proper safe
guards. / trust that | will not be op-
posed in the statement that it is en-
lcumbcnt primarily upon the operators
themselves to protect their employees.
The mine officials are on duty every
working day and would be in better
position than our force of state min
