CAMPAIGN TO PREVENT
ACCIDENTS IN PLANTS

More than 5000 industrial plants
to one million men and women will
participate in the campaign for the
prevention OF accidents which will
be launched during the week of
October s to ID by the Safety Insti-
tute of America through the Public
Safety Committee of which Ebert
Il. Gary is chairman. This an
nouncement was made today by
Laurence Vail Coleman, director of
the Safety Institute OF America fol-
lowing the appointment of Henry d.
Sayer. commissioner of the New
York state Department Of Labor. as
chairman of the Industrial Commit
tee for the Safety Week Campaign.
In asking Commissioners Sayer to
accept this post Judge Gary wrote:
I'VE are sure you share the convic-
ton of every progressive manager
of industry that community safety
has a vital bearing on industrial
safety, that when workmen are
reached in their homes they come
back to the plants not only interest
ed in safety as employees but believ-
ing in it as fathers and citizens.
I'm the city wide campaign the
industries are each to be called up
on to take advantage OF the wide
spread community interest and to
conduct an aggressive safety drive
among their employees so that he
workmen will not only work safely
In the factory but will also preach
and practice safety In their homes
and among their neighbors.
During the sixteen years of the
safety movement In industry we
have demonstrated, as you are well
aware. that rs per cent of all deaths
and serious injuries can be elimi-
mated. l am convinced from my
study of the experience of other
large cities hat just as we have
been able to so organize safety In a
plant that the interest of every mar
is gripped, 80 1t is possible to de-
velop in New York an organized eff
fort with sufficient influence and
man power to conduct q year round
campaign of education through the
schools, the press, the industries
and the various civic agencies that
every man. woman and child of the
six millions in our city will be
reached.

URGE MANUFACTURERS
TO AID FIRE PREVENTION

TRENTON, Sept. 30.-Commis-
sioner Lewis T. Bryant. of the State
Department of Labor, in a public
letter to more than 5000 New Jer-
sey manufacturers, members of the
Lions, Kiwanis and Rotary clubs,
vention Week. which Governor Ed
wards has proclaimed from October
2 to o. The labor head directs the
attention of every man, woman and
child to the necessity of acquaintins
themselves with the everyday raw
ages of fire and the fire hazards
that are present daily by careless
ness.
In calling thelr attention to the
great losses by fire to carelessness,
Commissioner Bryant points out that
the last twelve months have regis
tered a total of nearly $4,000 human
lives by fire. while during the same
period over $4,000 persons have been
seriously injured. Careful analysis,
says the commissioner, shows that
over so per cent of these are moth
ers, children up to the end of school
age, and inlrm and aged persons.
all of whom are dependent upon
strong. able bodied men for pro-
lection.
The official further points out that
the burning rate Of property for 1921
rose to the startling total of more
than $485,000, 900, a sur greater
than was spent in the same period
for the education of the country'S
children. He states the public in
general has displayed little interest
in this phenomenal waste because
they are not advised as to how it Is
borne.
Another feature hat has escaped
our notice" declares the commits
sioner. lis the item Of regular taxa
ton. Municipal and state govern
mental functions depend upon taxa
ton upon existing valuations, for
their financial supply. Every build
ing burned is removed from the tax
duplicate and the amount it would
have produced is assessed as another
invisible tax upon the remaining
property owners 1t is estimated
that in 1922 we will have to pay an
excess of over $40. 200. 900 in our
taxes by reason of the properties
burned in 1921.
Eighty-seven per cent of ali prop
erty losses and ninety per cent of
losses of life and injury are found
by analysis. to be the result Of our
lack of education as to the causes
Of fire and our careless, yes, reckless

ager of the New England district of
the bureau and who for two years
was a trade commissioner for the
bureau in England.
Philadelphia's importance as one
of the greatest industrial centers in
the United States made it the logi-
cal choice for the location of an Of
flee to serve this territory. Informa-
ton on foreign trade subjects and
the opportunities for the sale of
American made products in foreign
markets will be Immediately avail
able to the business man through
this office. This will avoid the de-
lay of writing to the Bureau of For
eign a. Domestic Commerce in Wash

assistance to the individual business
man and to aid him in turning the

porting to Washington regularly by
mail and cable the opportunities for
the sale of American goods, the
conditions of foreign markets and
the competition that American
manufacturers are meeting from
producers of other countries. This

reau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce in Washington where it Is
carefully checked by the appropri-
ate division and then given to the
business man through the district
offices.
Each of the major industries in
the United States is represented in
this bureau by a division, in charge
of a chief who has not only q tech
nical knowledge of the industry but
who also knows how the goods SIRE
sold in the different foreign markets
of the world. These divisions keep
the district Offices supplied with
data on the particular commodity
which they handle. All of this In
formation Is available to all firms
that satisfy the district office they
are under American control.
Among the things which the
Philadelphia district Office will be
able to do for the business men In
its territory may be mentioned:
Indicate where there Is a market
for American goods of any descrip-
ton.
How best to enter that market
and the best methods Of selling.
Terms on which goods are sold.
Furnish lists of foreign buyers.
These lists indicate whether these
buyers are importers on their own
account, commission merchants.
agents or retailers. They also indi-
cate the nationality of the firm and
relative size in its territory.
How best to pack goods, the most
advisable shipping routes, what
documents are necessary, the rates
of duties levied on the goods and
whether the goods are subject to
further taxes after entering the
