Needlessly So.


Needlessly So.
OF 100000 blind persons IN the
United States there are 80 per cent
who are needlessly so, according to in
formation received by the Utah state
industrial commission from the ma
tional safety council. For that rea.
son the commission, in prosecuting it's
safety campaign, is urging upon work
ers that goggles or other forms Of
glasses be worn when the eyes are
exposed to danger by flying splin-
ters or particles of metal.
Estimates made by the national
safety council show that annually in
the United States about 10000 work.
ers are killed and approximately
100000 injured. This means that
one is killed in every 10 minutes and
one injured in each 16 seconds.

DEFENDED HONOR
/. OF RED CROSS is
CLAIM OF SPENCE

John Spence, of 273 Congress street,
arrested yesterday charged with as
sault upon Ewald Eurat, fellow ma
chinist employed at the Singer Sew
ing Machine plant, was before Judge
Wilder today in the City Court and
his case was continued until tomor-
row.
The two men while at work yester-
day afternoon became engaged in a
heated argument over the recruiting
campaign which Manager David
Skelley of the foreign transportation
division of the American Red Cross
is conducting in Bridgeport. Eurat
became abusive when referring to the
Red Cross, winding up, it is alleged
by shouting, "To with the Red
Cross" 1t is said he was hit by
both a hammer and a file by Spence.
Eurat fell and a call was sent in for
an ambulance. 1t was found his head
was lacerated by the file which struck
him full force, while his left leg was
bruised where the hammer landed.
Spence was discharged by the fore
man of the shop, and disappeared.
He was sought for until late hour
last night when he was found in Main
street and taken into custody.
According to workmen in the plant
Eurat provoked the assault and little
sympathy is felt for him. Spence
claims he threw the hammer and file
on the impulse of the moment when
he heard one of Americas greatest
institutions maligned in a vicious and
uncalled for manner.

alien, spent today in the East Cam
bridge Jail while agents of the Depart

clared counsel had been engaged to
protect his interests.
Hans Sulzer, Swiss minister to the
