CLEVELAND. o., oct. 3.-Safety ques-
lions dealing with practically every
kind Of human activity were discussed
today ai The eighth annual Safely Con-
gress OF The National Safely Council
held here. Health service. public safe-
tv public utilities. women In industry
and many other phases were the subs
iecis OF papers by experienced engl-
neers. One of the most interesting
features Of the day was the discussion
i'm The chemical section. Chemistry
work has received such a renewed
amount Of interest IN this country dur
ing the last four years that II merits
special attention from safety engineers.
Among the papers read was one by
A. II Massey. Of the dupont Company,
Of Wilmington, Del. on some Expert
ence in Accident Prevention in the Dye
Industry" Mr.. Massey called attention
10 the fact that the dye industry Is so
extremely varied that the work OF the
safety man IN one plant Is different IN
detail from that OF the man In another,
or the man In a general chemical plant.
He pointed out, however. that the fun
damenial problem is the same-the pre-
ventlon Of accidents and the preserva-
tlon Of health. In many instances, he
said. the health problem Is a more seri-
Gus one than that which we commonly
term accident prevention
Mr.. Massey took up number OF In
stances Of safety work which had come
under his observation in dye making
and discussed tho problems arising and
tho best way 10 handle them. He said
that the superintendent or safety man
may provide every known safety device,
but their usefulness and efficiency Is
only proportlonale TO their use. Il Is
the tendency Of many workmen TO
ignore and In some Instances practically
refuse to use safety appliances and he
said that this can only be overcome by
patlent education and by lining up
tho foremen. He also discussed the
value OF educational work in regard to
safety.

nuRKIN CASE DISMISSED.

Judge Churchman, in Municipal Court
this morning dismissed the charges OF
breach OF the peace and non-supp0rt
against Thomas Durkin, which case has
been pending since June. In dismissing
the case Judge Churchman remarked
that the trouble between the defendant
and his wife has been caused by the
wife's improper use OF money. It APP
peared that Mrs. ~Durkin has taken
$1,000 which Durkin had deposited in q
building and loan association oflPhila-
delphia for their children. and invested
IL in house, unknown TO her hus-
band. The money the court thought,
should be put in a trust fund for the
children, but this, he remarked. Mrs.
Durkin has expressed her unwillingness
to do. The breach OF the peace charge
grew out OF their dispute over the
money.
Harry p Joslyn was counsel for the
