Plan To
Reduce
Accidents
Pennsylvania High Total Of Indus
trial Casualties Means Not Only
Hardship to Men But Heavy
Labor Loss

Reduction of Industrial accidents
in order to make labor work without
waste to win the war, is the aim Of
great drive for industrial safety in
Pennsylvania, undertaken by the
Pennsylvania Labor Safety Commit
tee, which has received much inspir-
alton from the work OF ne National
Safety Council. The Department of
Labor's maximum production cam
paign can be furthered, the men pro-
noting the campaign believe, by
guarding the safety of workmen.
Fully half the accidents in Penn
sylvania, as they were reported last
year, might have been prevented, &C
cording to persons who have investi-
gated the problem Statistics show
that about 5000 were killed and 300,-
injured in that State alone during
1917. This heavy toll, which almost
equals the casualty lists in France,
can be reduced by full so per cent,
thus promoting the productive power
of the workingmen, it is declared.
Through union meetings and in ev-
cry other way possible, the workmen
will be shown how they can contrib
ute to safety in industry. The neces-
sity of labor power in winning the
war will be emphasized as a special
reason for care during this critical
time when maximum production is
the most urgent need Of the nation.
The loss of mans labor power.

preventable accident checks by that

and when 100000 accidents are TAX
en- into account it is apparent that
the loss of labor power is tremen-
dous.

REGARDING NON.ESSENTIALS

some time ago, when the work or
fight order was first mentioned, a New
York newspaper told of the long lines
Of men that were seen at an early
hour one morning, besieging employ
ment offices and other places where
various kinds of labor was supposed
to be needed. The talk of non-essen-
tials had stampeded thousands who
decided for themselves that their
work work was not regarded as de-
sirable or necessary. No doubt a
great many men thus leaving one en-
ployer found another, and probably
the change was beneficial to the ma
jority. There were men, however,
leaving one job, failed to secure an
other, and hits meant a loss of pay
and possibly much discomfort.
The idea became prevalent that
anybody working at mon essential"
employment was likely to be captured
and perhaps Jailed. At any rate the
penalty seemed to be understood as
leading up to immediate drafting into
the army, and this possibility fright
ened some and made others nervous.
Other men, believing that some slight
physical disability would cause their
rejection from the army or navy, did
not know what might befall them il
they continued to work on the Jobs
they had worked at for years. "Non-
essential" lists seemed to be long and
severely drawn. Some felt that tho
enforcement of the order would force
the suspension of industries and bust
ness enterprises that had been con-
sidered important in the economy of
life.
1t is now given out with emphasis
by those in authority that men at
work, even in the places listed as
non-essential, should stick to their
counters and desks and places until
they are fitted for, or until they ara
they are fitte dior, or until they are
called for some war work. Uncle Sam
positively needs no drones in the
great united States beehive at pres
ent. We must store up honey as
well as fight, and every man should
be working at something. The orders
intended that there should be trans
ferring of work to bring about the
best results, and never contempla, ~
idleness for anybody. Leaving a 20.
sition which gives support to a man
and his family in order to seek work
elsewhere is about the worst thing
that could be done at this time.
Look about and inquire as to pos
sibilities, make the calculations and
then determine what to do, is the adj
vice now offered. The employers who
appreciate the work orders and un-
derstand that their business can be
carried on in way different from
the the usual, will be glad to have
their help remain until something
else is found for the workmen to do
in the recognized essentials. Hold
your job, is now the recommendation
of the best informed, and look about.
Better to be found at work than
looking for work. Jacksonville

trant has been made.
i Claims in Behalf Of Necessary
Employees
A further duty with which the ad
wiser is charged is to confer with EN-
pioyers of necessary farm workers
and to instruct them as to their righ
under the regulations to file a claim
for deferred classification in respec
of any registrant who has failed o,
refused to file claim for deferred
classification in his own behalf. This
in the opinion of the War Depart
ment, is very important matter
| The apparent injustice of placing
many registrants in Glass 1 is often
due to the fact that employers have
, failed to make claims for deferred
classification on behalf of necessary
workers. It is to avoid a repetition
of this trouble that farmers should
see that all Of their necessary en-
ployes, whether sons or other labor
ers, of the draft age have been made
for them just claims for deferred
classification
One important explanation is made
in the new Selective Service Regula-
lions in connection with the express
sion skilled farm laborer." The
questionable provides deferred clas-
sification for the necessary skilled
farm laborer in necessary agricultur-
al enterprise" The new regulations
provide that in Glass II shall be
placed any registrant found to be en-
gagged in a necessary" agricultural
enterprise, and found to be neces-
sary to such enterprise in the capac,
ity of farm laborer-"especially
fitted for the work in which he is en-
gagged" This quoted phrase consti-
tutes an explanation of what is
meant b y"skilled" as applied to farm
laborer. The expression will make
easier the determination of the status
of many registrants.
War Service in the Right Place
The purpose in the appointing o.
advisers is to place men where they
can do most to help win the wal.
These advisers will be able to help
greatly the district boards to keep in
agriculture the necessary workers.
These workers, whatever may be their
inclination to enter military service,
should stand ready to serve in any
capacity in which they can contribute
most toward speedy ending of the
war. In order that this may be done
frank statement should in each case
be made to the boards. 1t Is believed
that it will frequently require as
much courage on the part of many
men to remain in their civilian occu-
pations as to waive deferment.
This effort to keep men in industry
rather than to send them to the
camps and the trenches, should not
be abused so as to permit the Stacker
to escape military duty. The necessi.
ties for raising an army are para
mount. Every man that can be spared
will be needed and needed badly to
bring the enemy to his senses. The
adviser should be assisted in every
possible way by every legitimate agri-
cultural interest to find the men that
can be spared for military duty, bu,
