State Factory Inspector Calhoun Recon-
mends Legislation by the Yer
mont Legislature.

State Factory Inspector Allan Calhoun,
in his second biennial report for the year
ending August |, 1915, recommends a
program of legislation covering variety
of subjects He would have section 55l2
of the public statutes amended so as to
prohibit the use Of ladders for fire es-
capes. Where more than 20 women or
girls or minors are employed, he would
have fire escapes extending from the Sec
ond floor groundward. Factories, in his
opinions should have the same sort OF
fire escapes as those required for schools,
theatres and public halls.
"AIl doors used by employees as en-
frances 10 and exits from any factory,
mercantile establishment, mill or work
shop, shall open outward. and be so con
structed as to be easily and Immediately
opened from within in case of fire or 9TH
er emergency
| Stairs in factories, mercantile estab'
hshments, mill and workshops should be
provided, he says, with substantial and
proper rails and the treads should pro-
vide a safe foothold.
"All hoistways, hatchways, elevator
openings in factories, mercantile estab-
! lishment, mills or workshops, should be
guarded by automatic gates or floor
doors; persons using elevator should
not, for any purpose, be permitted TO
wedge or prop gates unused sides OF
shafts should be cased in to height OF
seven feet at least, either with jointed
boards or substantial wire screening; ca
BILE. shives, safety catches and all ele-
vator machinery should be examined fre-
ouently to see that it is in order; peri
odieal tests of safety catches should be
made by the suspending of the elevator
cage by a light rope, and then cutting
rope to ascertain whether the safety
catches will work or not, instead OF
waiting for an accident to prove that
they do not; no minor under 10 years
of age should be permitted to operate
any elevator. If any elevator, machine
electrical apparatus or system OF wiring
or any part or parts thereof, in any fac'
| tory. mercantile establishment, mil or
