BENEFITS OF SAFETY WORK
When the Motives Are Purely Human
itarian the Best Results Have
Seen Attained.

In an article in Safety Engineer
ing it is suggested by George A.
Cowes. manager of the bureau of
safety of the Utica Mutual Compen-
saiion CORPORATION. that the funda-
mental motive in establishing safety
work in an industrial plant should be
humanitarianism. He writes:
Manufacturing corporations In
all parts of the United States have
testified that efficient safety organi-
cations. as conducted in their facto-
rieS, have, on an average, reduced the
number of accidents in their plants
at least 80 per cent. In some plants
accident records have been reduced
as much as 65 per cent. The indus
trial accident board of Massachusetts
has found that, through the organi-
zation of efficient safety committees
the employees of Massachusetts, may
eventually save on each injury An
average of $40. Statistics show that
such organizations have saved at
least so per cent of the losses In
wages sustained by employees on ac-
count of preventable accidents. En-
ployers may expect, therefore, ulti-
mately to save the entire cost OF
insurance on the preventable cases.
At least 60 to 20 per cent of all acci-
dents are preventable. No employer
should, if he desires to make it a
success, organize a safety committee
solely for pecuniary gain. Humani-
tarianism should be the primary mo.
tive to inspire employers to perfect
such an organization"

AMERICAN IDEAL is DEFINED
General Wood Says II Is Prepared

Culver, Ind, May 25.-The "Ameri
can ideal' for preparation for wal
was defined here by Major Genera
Leonard Wood, in addressing 200 higf
school boys who have just completed
two weeks of military training. Train
ing constituting preparedness 'againsi
war, not for war" was advocated by
General Wood.
The American ideal of preparation
would seem to be a large number o.
men trained and ready for service il
time of need and the smallest possi
BILE number for peace needs with the
colors at other times" he said.
such an ideal would be realized
by something like the Austrian OF
Swiss system, where every man who
is physically sound receives enough
military training to make him an ef
ficient soldier"
