device or piece of machinery that
comes into the plant,
Their report goes on to say that:
"Out of the war there was brought
home to America the realization
tia; its industrial activities had
been carried on at a tremendous
sacrifice of workers. We were ap-
palled at the need for surgeons and
nurses and great hospitals to care
for the wounded. Had the wounded
soldiers of industrial America been
placed on cots each six feet long
and arranged end to end. they would
have made continuous train 568
miles long; had those killed through
carelessness in American industrial
plants during the past year been
laid shoulder to shoulder, there
would have been formed a solid row
of human bodies 8 IS miles long"
Realizing its responsibility to its
workers, the Ford Motor Co. has
conducted aggressive safety work
with the idea of eliminating the
causes of accidents. 1t has been
emphasized over and over to Ford
employees that accidents are not
necessary "by-product" of their
work and that no man will be asked
to take chances" The acrobatic
type of man who used to think that
he was doing his employer a great
favor by hanging "by his eyebrows"
from some lofty perch or by doing
some other equally foolhardy stunt,
S being rapidly separated from the
Ford organization. He is not
needed, is a menace to himself, his
associates and his employers.
Accident prevention work should
bear fruit in a greatly reduced num-
Der of accidents. There were six
within the Ford organiza-
ton three years ago; yet last year
has been passed with but one. And
the men are working in veritable
forest of high speed machinery, with
great cranes, elevators, conveyor
systems and other equipment in ac
ton "a hours day.
Out of 3S,OO0,O0O of factory work
ers in the United States, approxi-
rnately $4,000 are killed each year
at their work. Applying the same
ratio to the Ford plant, there should
be % deaths through accident with
in this plant alone, each year. Or,
to reverse the order, if the Ford
record of but one death per year in
a group of $4,000 work1nen were
followed throughout the country,
but 760 men would be killed yearly,
instead of 22,000-the present num-

Four-Wheel Drivers
and Tractors Haul
TN. T. Up Mountains

On the top of Mt. Pocono in
Pennsylvania, the U. S. government
is storing millions of pounds OF
T. N. T., to care for the hun or any
other aggressive nation which might
be tempted to take liberties with
Uncle Sam.
The explosive is brought up to
Tobyhanna on the railroad and then
hauled II miles back in the woods
to the. magazines. For this work
40 F. w. D. trucks and IS caterpil-
lar tractors are used.
The roads are so bad that a set
of solid tires lasts 1000 miles. Fab
ric tires used on Dodge cars will
not hold up at all, and cords last
only 1000 miles.
Before permitting the Four Wheel
Drives and tractors on the work,
several types of rear driven trucks
were tried, but the wear and tear
was so great that they could not
hold up.
In the matter Of repair costs. the
F. D. DIS are far lower than the
tractors, and they get over the
ground faster and haul more tom
mage.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will you
please tell me how to make my hus-
band less jealous OF me?
He won't take me any place and
won't let me have any Of my friends

been true to him and always keep
the house clean. Please tell me what
to do? MRS. G.
A wife has her rights Just as well
as her husband has his. 1t is not a
bit unreasonable for you to want to
entertain your friends, and there
fore think you should do so without
consulting your husband. Entertain
during the day and tell him quietly
but firmly you intend to continue do
ing so.
The way to a mans heart nova
days seems to be through attractive
clothing. Look your best and your
husband will want to take you places.

years old. Last June I was engaged

married the Fourth of July, but he

departure and frenzy Of new enter
prise, to have mislaid. But l remem'

How far away in time and space
seems New York and all that went
with it only six days ago! Although
we are still a day away from the
continent, already the shadow OF a
world at war has enveloped US. Ones
own affairs become so dwarfed In I'M
portance before these millions upon
millions Of supreme tragedies we are
nearing. One feels shame-faced to
think how much this or that turn OF
affairs troubled one back in that land
Of peace. Tomorrow when / arrive
where death now wears the most IA
miliar aspect and mutiliated survival
is the greater tragedy, any personal
concern short of these will seem even
more triling.
Let me hear from time to time how
you and Walt are getting along. The
office will send me weekly reports OF
the magazine.

some Of Miss Garvin's work and send
me samples of it?
