ADVOCATES STATE INSURANCE.
Carl Hookstadt Urges Radical Steps to
Aid Men Crippled in Industry.

Radical remedies to solve the prob
lem Of the man permanently crippled in
industry are advocated by Carl Hook
stadt in an article in the December num-
Der of the Monthly Labor Review, issued
by the bureau of labor statistics of the
United States department of labor. His
proposals are:
The compensation scale OF benefits to
be materially increased to approximate
the loss of earning capacity.
Adequate medical and surgical treat
ment to be furnished by the state.
Vocational schools closely correlated
to rehabilitation hospitals.
Unemployment at suitable jobs and at
fair wages.
Establishment of exclusive state in
sursnee fund or an employers mutual
association to be substituted for com
petitive casualty companies.
Establishment of central authority,
preferably of an Industrial accident com
mission, to administer and supervise the
entire rehabilitation problem.
Interesting figures brought out by sew
eral investigations show that in Massa-
ehusetts the average period of total dis
ability for the loss of a hand or arm is
1874 months, while in California it is 1911
months. For the loss of a foot or leg
in Massachusetts, 248 months are lost.
while 1874 months are lost in California
for the same accident.
tAT.syr, stand nrsf IS
writes Mr.. Hookstadt. "One is the great
err severity of the foot and leg injuries
over those of the hand and arm and the
other the unexpected long period of dis
ability in all cases One-third of the
workers losing hand or foot are dis
abled for Is months or over The aver
age length of total disability for the
lesser injuries Is: Loss of eye, as
months; one thumb, "a months; one fin
GER 81 months; two or more fingers, 3.S
months
The seriousness Of the disability in
creases with the age of the workman, the
investigation conducted by Mr.. Hook
stadt prove. The average total dis
ability for those under 45 years and
those Is years and over is as follows:
Loss of one limb, men under As years,
1872 months; men 40 years or over 20.3
months; loss of one eye, men under As
years, A months; men As years or over,
SIS months; loss Of one thumb, IL and
4.6 months, respectively; one finger, .
and 81 months; two or more fingers, "a
and 81 months.
"About one.third Of the persons sus-
tanning a major injury return to the
same employer" writes Mr.. Hookstadt,
"and about one.fourth re-enter the same
occupation, while in the case of minor
injuries three.fourths return to the same

TWO MEN INJURED.
When Supporting Wall of Power Plant
Collapsed.

Middlebury, Feb, 3.--Chester Ingalls,
Of Salisbury assistant superintendent
and Arthur Bird, craftsman, of Brandon,
of the Hortonia Power company, engaged
in erecting a large plant on the site Of
the Green Mountain Pulp cOmpany's old
plant, were injured when one Of the
side walls Of the plant went out with
the heavy pressure Of water, carrying
with it q portion of the roof on which
the two men vera
Following the discovery of water leak
ing into the machinery room they had
gone to the roof to look for the cause.
Hardly had they reached the roof when
the wall of cement three feet thick,
about rs by so feet, gave way. Mr.. In
gals was thrown into the debris about
rs feet. Mr.. Bird was carried about the
same distance, striking in Otter Creek,
which carried him with the fragment of
the roof about 10 rods.
Men who were working In the pit un-
der the wall heard the cracking and
managed to get out without injury.
y The two injured men were rescued by
their comrades and doctors cared for
them. Both are badly bruised about the
body and head and it Is feared they are
hurt internally. The loss to the company
will be several thousand dollars.
The wheels were started up for the
first time Thursday,

EARLY MATCHING.
See Your County Agent About Your
Poultry Wants.


The earlier Matching campaign is pro-
crossing nicely, and your county agent
I is now able to inform you where you can
get your own eggs Matched, or can buy
day chicks nearby. This feature
works entirely to your advantage; you
have no delay or transportation diff
culties and the chicks arrive in better
shape. Why not patronize your own
local industries?
Distant pastures are not always the
4 greenest, neither are distant poultry
plants always the best to fill your wants.
Your chances are better, or as good.
for getting eggs or chicks from good lay
ers here in Vermont as the average flock
outside the state, because over 10000
birds have been culled in the state this
fall. In other words, the elimination of
over 5000 drones in Vermont focks
means that your chances are better for
getting eggs or chicks from as good lay
ers as the average flock elsewhere, where
in some instances the fiocks have not
been culled at all.
Another point in your favor is that
these people in Vermont have been told
how TO mate up their breeders for better
egg production. You can reap the bene-
fit of this eulling as well as The owners.
< Your county agent will soon be able to
btell you where you can get your poultry
wants filed; or write directly to the
extension service Of the University OF
Vermont.

| occupation"
Inability to speak English in many
| cases lessons the opportunity for re.em-
ployment, although it is not possible to
show this Satisfactorily because OF iueom-
plete and indefinite data. In a number
of cases reported by the industrial ae-
cident board and by insurance compa
MES in Massachusetts, this factor had a
determining influence Ability to under
stand and speak the English language
may not be of vital Importance t" a ma
chine tender in a cotton mill, but it is
ESSENTIAL to watcbmen, messengers, and
elevator operators, and ii is occupations
of this character that most of the in
iured employees fill after their injury.
Summarizing the above conclusions, -
declares Mr., Hookstadt, 1T may be said
that re-employablity Of crippled indus
trial workers varies directly with degree
of oceupational skill and abilsty to speak
English, and inversely with 3yerity
of the injury and the aye Re en-
ploye.
'The period of total disability result
ing from the injury is unnecessarily long
Only about one-third Of the seriously
crippled workers return to the same EN-
ployer, and relatively few re.enter the
same occupation, The compensation ben
efits are inadequate, and practically no
restraining has been done A critical
analysis Of the several contributory
causes have their origin in, and are close.
ly related to, the absence of a central
and responsible supervising authority.
The welfare of our crippled men has
been nobody's business, Closely connect
ed with this responsibility is the lack
of opportunity. The very fact that men
are crippled has closed the door of oppor-
tunity against them They are not Civ
