Very good results are being obtain
ed by the provision of the safety act
Of 1913 which requires manufact-
urer of machinery to guard all dam
gerous points in the machine before
offereing it for sale in this state.
Since October LIST, 1913 when the new
law went into effect, inspectors have
reported 20 types of machines sold
in violation of this section. They
were manufactured by II different
firms and handled by 13 local deal
ers. All manufacturers and dealers
were ordered to discontinue the sale
of the machines until they were pro-
perly safe guarded.
Two other firms voluntarily wrote
the department asking the provisions
of the law and promised to, comply
with them, It is expected that dur
