AshURsT SEEKS TO suY
 LOWER CALIFORNIA

WASHINGTON. Jan s.-Speaking in the senate today in support of his resolution for acquisition by the Unit oi States. through negotiations with Mexico. of Lower California and part cf the state of Sonora. Senator Ash urst of Arizona declared the Mexican government was unable to control the terrotory or protect il from foreign invasion. Annexed to the United States, he said it would be converted into imme-se agr,.ulthral value by ir- r.gs:ion from the Colorado
 Lower California. said the senator is the yermiform appendix of Mexico and the Achilles heel of the United States"
 The Mexican republic is both un- wiling and unable to police the pen insula he added and is unable to resist aggressions from or settlement by oriental powers; hence a base of supplies or military and naval opera tions. with comparatively ease and se- crecy. could be established among the numerous islands on the Pacific coast"
 Enforcement of law and order in Lower California. MT Ashurst de clared, is left wholly to d governor holding over from the Diaz regime
 Senator Phelan of California inter rupted Senator Ashrust with the com ment thu. there is always danger Of acquisition by foreign powers by pur- chase or otherwise by means of Zim- merman notes CT otherk.se of Lower California
 He added however. that he would not consent to acquisition of the pen insula by the United States. except by complete agreement with Mexico
 Senator Weeks of Massachusetts in quired whether Senator Ashurst would apply the prin pie of self-de:ermina- ton to the territory and the Arizona senator replied that he advocated this plan and had received hundreds of letters from residents of Lower Cali fornia urging the purchase.
 While Senator Ashrust was speak ing in the senate, Representative FL ston Of California. Republican. intro duced a resolution in the house. re- questing President Wilson 10 open ne gotiations with Mexico for the pur- chase of the Lower California benin sula and other Mexican land along the international boundary "as shall by topography promote harmonious rela- tions by reducing to minimum all in ternational border difficulties"
 The resolution was referred to the house foreign affairs committee.

January 7.- Aside from the inaugurial ceremon- ies and the attendant crowds about the capitol building. a stranger would not have observed that there was gen eral shifting about in official life in the state house Monday.

Safety First Notes

The subject of Safety Education is
not only one of the most talked of
subjects of today, but one of the best
subjects which a be used.
There has been much written and
much said, but it is always we'll and
worth while to carefully review open
minded1y the accomplishments and
failures and profit thereby.
Of almost any industrial plant. What
do we find? Accidents caused by care
lessness, about ninety per cent. Acct
dents caused by lack of mechanical
safe guards about five per cent, and
accidents caused by unforeseen things
which could not have been prevented,
about five per cent. We say right
away that is just what we have in our
plant, the personal equation ninety
per cent. That is the field for our
safety educational work. 1t is always
with us. We are always going to
have it just as long as we have men,
and we have to stand up and meet it.
We will not be able to sit back and
say, 1--WE have solved it," simply be-
cause we put in some of the well
known safety schemes. 1t will rise
up and smite US just as surely as we
follow this plan of action.
What is Safety Educational Work?
Let me answer by analyzing the
methods that have been used searching
carefully for their strength and weak
nesses so that we may profit. First,
we have the safety committees and
that is we'll known. Let us see what
they are. We have the foreman's
are acknowledged telling the super
visors. What are their duties? They
are to make inspections. They can
investigate an accident and see If
there are any ways or means OF pre-
venting a recurrence, and submit a
written report and then, per chance,
from time to time, use their influence
in c%autioning their fellow-workers.
These reports are submitted in writ
ten form. Furthermore, they must
be followed up by being acknowledged
by somebody higher up. Unless they
are acknowledged telling the super
visors the disposition of each of the
items, you are not likely to get the
best out of your committee.
The great responsibility which rests
upon all of US is to revise the methods
toward constantly reducing the num-
Der of accidents, and while it would be
extremely difficult to reduce the num-
Der of accidents to the vanishing point,
anything that can be contributed to
that end is of the very highest value.
In addition to furnishing proper
safety appliances and instructions, how
and where to use them, it is fair to
make it mandatory upon the employee
that such appliances should be used
and that every device or method which
may be approved as desirable toward
the prevention of accidents shall con-
scientiously be employed.

The DUPONT Company is making re-
neHed efforts to solve the problem of
providing employment for the men
Who left il 70 go into the military SER
vice. This is an unusually hard prob
lem for this company, because nearly
80 per cent. of its work was "a work,
which came to an end with the signing
81 the arInistice ard left it in q posi-
lion Of having available only a small
proportion OF the positions it had
when is men went into the service.
II had in the service more than half
as many men as it now has employees.
When the soldiers began to return
every department, acting under in
5tructions from the officers Of the COM
pany, ~endeavored to reinsta5e them.
But as the REIMBURSEMENT to peace
time conditions continued to reduce
he working force the difficulties in
creased.
lrenee DUPONT, President Of the COM
pany, in an effort to provide employ
ment for as many returned soldiers
as possible has issued a e order to
the heads Of all departments in which
he says:
"Realizing that it is becoming in
c~reaslngly difficult to reinstate former
employees returning from military SER
vice, we wish to especially emphasize
at this time the necessity for giving
Jhis matter closest attention.
Although the total working force of
the company has shrunk from approx
imately $4,000, during the summer of
1918, to about $4,000 at the present
time, due to the cessation of u wal
activities and although the lumber OF
our employees who entered the service
was in excess of 5000, these facts
do not relieve US of the obligation to
make every reasonable effort to pro-
vide employment for those who apply
to US for reinstatement, ven though
these men were formerly employed at
one of u many plants now entirely
closed down.
"In cases where a plant is unable
to offer employment to a former en-
ployee of the company returning from
military service, every effort should be
made to place him in contact on a
favorable basis with other employers
locally, and also with existing agen-
cies for the employment of men dis
charged from the service. Failing to
secure employment for him by these
means, the mans name and perman-
ent address, together with copy of his
former employment record should be
forwarded Immediately to the Per-
sonal Relation Section of the Service
Department, which will follow up each
case individuality"
In demobilizing its wal workers the
company made every effort to feed the
men and women back into peace-time
industries with as little hardship as
possible. 1t carried many thousands
of employees on its pay rolls until
they could secure positions elsewhere,
and it aided them in every way pos
sible to secure such positions.

Anyone who uses the roots of beets

of its recommendations being that it
is much xsed and enjoyed by the
wealthy. Very conveniently beets have
to be thinned until they stand not less

them to his wife who prepares them
