L. OF r. ANNOUNCES
NOTABLE DISCOVERIES

PITTSBURGH. November lo.-Two
important discoveries which will aid
materially In cutting the high cost OF
living have been announced by the
Mellon Institute of Research OF the
University OF Pittsburgh.
One lis the perfection OF a new method
OF milling -four that increases the
value of wheat approximately per
cent. The demand in this country is
for white -four, and in milling about
20 per cent OF the wheat produces this.
Another 10 per cent goes into second
grade flour. and the remaining 20 per
cent is animal food. Experiments
made for a large milling company have
added per cent more white -four. a
new process of bread-making worked
out at the institute has been adopted
by the French and English govern
ments and the Belgian Relief Com
mission.
Another discovery Of importance is
method to preserve orange and grape
fruit juice. Citrus fruit growers have
been compelled to waste large portions
of their crops through "culis" For
years efforts to preserve orange Juice
have been made, but the product was
unfit for consumption. The institute
has found a way to sterilize the juice
without boiling. 40 that Il new industry
will be established that bids fair to
rival the grape juice industry and find
n use for tho culls.
1t was also announced at the insti-
tute that the first gas masks used by
the allies were made here. When the
Germans threw the first gas waves at
the battle of Ypres chemists were at
work developing protector from
smelter smoke. Believing that chlorine
gas was being used, Director Bacan
made experiments with the mask,
which proved successful. The mask
was turned over to J. p. Morgan for
the use Of the allies, and it is now
being universally worn

full-timc (30o-day) workers and
severity rate of twenty seven days lost
per 30O-day worker. while yard labor
has frequency rate Of 22l aud
severity rate Of twenty mine days lost.
The high rates of the boiler shops are,
primarily. tho result OF insecure trestlcs
ana scaffoldinE. For the excessive
rates In the yard department, RESPONSE
biiity rests upon the general neglect
OF safe location and construction OF the
transportation systems of many plants
coupled with lack OF safety Drccnu-
lions and instruction.
One of the fundamental Inquiries in
study OF this character Is whether
or not accidents arc decreasing A
precise answer is difficult. because Of
the factl that very few plants had re-
liable accident records over a period of
years. For one group OF plants for
which such information was obtainable
FOR the years 1910 to 1918, tho fra.
quency rate shows no decrease, but tn.
severity rate. after running as high
as six days in 1910. eight days In 1911.
and seven days In 1912, drops to threc
days In 1913. This decrease may re-.
meet the more thorough safety organi-
zation Effected In some Of these pIant,
In 1912. The fact that tho frequency
rate shows no decline is certainly due
TO the more complete reporting OF
minor accidents in the later years. .
striking method OF showing tho
IL
uent prevention Is to compare the acct
uent rates In plants having. with those
In plants not having, well-orEanized
systems. This Is done for three i'm
portant groups OF plants. In every case
the plants not having good safctv
organization show accident frequency
rates three or four times as high ms
those having well-developcd system.
Ihc report presents very careful
study OF the very important subject OF
accident causes. For the industry as
a whole. failing objects" stands out
as the most frequent cause of acct
dents. the frequency rate being four
teen cases per 1000 300-day workers.
AS measured by severity. Cranes and
hotsts' assumes first place, the severity
rate varying from IL to "a DAYS lost
per 3O0-day worker In different pro,Ips
of plants.
In discussing the question Of safety
IN the MISUNDERSTANDING industry. II lis
important to remember that that in
dustry not only uses machinery which
needs to be safeguardcd, but that its
work consists of the production Of
nachineS Tor use in other industries
The extent to which the machines thug
manufactured will later be n course OF
danger TO the workers in those other
industries depends in considerable
measure upon the character OF their
original construction. The subject of
machine design-of building n machine
In such a way as to offer the minimum
OF hazard to its future operators
thus becomes OF very great Significance.
This subject Is covered in considerable
detail in the report

AGAINST AN

Gas Co., turn out successfully, it will
be next to impossible for another such
complete snut-off of the natural gas
supply to Paris and other towns II

several days ago.
The company has announced at all
its offices that it is preparing to lay
two permanent gas mains across the

the main trunk on both sides of the
creek. and with valve which in case
of a break or washout on either line.

other. The pipes will be screw-jointed
in the most stable and permanent man

completed on the line and the connec-
tion with the temporary line was made
without the slightest Inconvenience To
