1851 DEATHS IN June
IN MINE ACCIDENTS
Anthracite Production Shows
Total of So; Bituminous
1903, inspectors Report.

Coal mine accidents caused the
death of 161 men during June, ac-
cording to reports from State mine
inspectors to the Interior Department.
For anthracite mines alone the num-
Der of fatalities in June was So, while
for bituminous mines, where a great
many more men were employed. the
number was los. With an output of
coal during the month of 3S,l5l,OoO
tons. the fatality rate was estimated
by the Bureau of Mines to be 422
deaths per million tons of coal mined
against rate of 3.73 for June last
year and an average fatality rate of
4.22 for the month of June during the
ten-year period from 1914 to 1928, in
elusive.
June Fatalities Preponderate.
June appears to be the month when
the greatest number of fatalities in
coal mine accidents occur in relation
TO the tonnage of coal mined, for rec
ords OF the bureau indicate rela-
lively high percentage of deaths in
that month over the decade covered.
Deaths resulting from coal mine
accidents in 1924, SO far total!ng
l,302, and indicating a death rate of
40 per million tons of coal mined,
I"r 1"'H wHe0 the rate was 39l for
the same period.
Six major disasters already have
occurred IN the coal mines in the United
States this year, with a total loss of 3sS
lives. IN 1923. during the same period,
there were six major disasters. with,
however, a total loss of but I55 lives
Explosions Of gas or cold dust con-
tlnue TO be the only class of acci-
dents with increased fatality rates.
The fatality rates from accidents in
falls of roof and coal, haulage acct
dents and accidents due to use of ex-
plosives and electricity show d de-
crease.
In the Alaskan coal mines, where
we're no fatal accidents during the
first five months of the year, although
four men were injured. The total
production of coal in the territory
during the fve-month period was
s0.971 tons, with a few more than 100
men employed.

TAXI DRIVERS BRAIN IS
QUICKER THAN STUDENTS
Test Held in Washington. How Fast
The Mind Works.

WASHINGTON, d. ca college
woman thinks faster than a college
man while driving an automobile, but
taxicab chauffeur thinks fastest OF
oil.
This was indicated from a series OF
tests described here today by DIR. +.
A. Moss before the annual conven-
ton OF the National Civil Service Re
form League. He told OF a civil ser
vice examination for chautfeurs. Col
lege students and professional taxicab
operators were used.
Two revolvers were mounted on the
underside OF the running board OF an
automobile. One was fired by an eX-
aminer pulling wire and the other
was fired automatically by the appli-
cation Of the brakes by the driver The
test was to determine how quickly the
drivers brains got into motion to stop
the car after hearing the first shot.
Comparison.
The average time of all was around
half a second. 1t took 500 of a second
for a college mans brain to telegraph
to his foot resting on the brake pedal,
but it only took $50 of a second for
a college woman's 1t took only .4l3
OF a second for the taxi drivers.
