CONTRIBUTING CAUSES

II is deplorab bic, but not surprising
;hat the bureau Of mines OF the De-
partment Of the Interior reports the
HIGHEST fatality record in the coal min
ming industry in the last seven years.
Il attributes the increased number or
accidents to the decentralization forced
upon the industry by war timr condi-
,!ous. The death toll for the year 19l7
stands 2,69S. which is an increase OF
40 over the previous year. war con-
ditionS" is too expansive phrase in
covering the reasons for these excess
fatalities. While it is true that until
the war enveIoprd us there had been
:, constantly decreasing death rate. ON

The coal mining industry was
Specdcd and retarded systematically
during the pass year. There was an
uncertainty Of prices at the mines and
