THE BURDEN OF ACCIDENTS

Why is it that with all the safety
appliances and Safety First talk,
there were $4,000 Killed and 100000
injured in accidents in this county
last year?
One human characteristic that
makes accidents more frequent, is a
certain tendency to recklessness
when a group of men get together.
Most men are inclined to be rather
careful when by themselves. But
when doing anything with a group Of
others, they seem ashamed to show
fear or exercise precautions.
Factory managers should take the
utmost pains to explain all the dan
gers of their machinery to workers,
particularly to those who do not
speak English. One strong reason
for instruction of aliens in factories
is that it will help reduce the acct
dent cases and the burden of com
pensation payments. These accidents
not merely cause family want and
suffering, but they add to the cost of
production and tax every resident in
Northeastern Vermont and every
where else.
