Irish Free State To Hold
 First Senatorial Election

DUBLIN, Aug. 12. R-The first elections to the Free State Senate heretofore an entirely nor;nated body, will take place this autumn, Because of the complicated system of election it is expected to take three months to determine the results. Of the 60 members, 15 are to be elected in addition to four who have been filling vacancies.
 Y The mode of election provides for a panel containing three times as many names as there are seats to be filled. The Senate nominates one- third of this panel and the Dali two- thirds. In addition outgoing Sena- tors may appear on the panel with out nomination, so that for the 19 seats the panel will contain 76 names.
 The constituency is the whole of the Free State, and votes are limited to persons over thirty years of age. The voting is by proportional repre- sentation, and the distribution of preferences among 76 names will take many weeks to count. The Senate has no real power, the maxi mum of which is to hold up for 27O days any bill, except a money bill, passed by the Dali.

EVERY INDUSTRY HAS HAZARDS, SURVEY OF
 EYE INJURIES SHOWS

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, (P)-There is no such thing as a non-hazardous in- dustry in the opinion of the National Committee for the Prevention of Blindness expressed in the report of an extensive study of eye hazards in industrial occupations, made public today by Lewis H. Carris. managing director of the committee.
 "Of the 100000 blind persons in the United States approximately 15,- 900 are the industrial blGd persons who have lost their sight in the pur- suit of industrial occupatone says the report, 'and there is in addi- tion to the totally blind | much larg CT number of men, women and child ren whose vision has been so impair ed by the eye hazards of industry that they are handicapped thruout life. Both of these classes, the industrial blind and the workers whose vision has been seriously impaired by the hazards of other indus tcial environ ment, grow larger each y3ar."
 There is hardly an industrial oc- cupation in America, according to the National Committee, which does not add each year to the steadily increas- ing number of the blind and the near blind. Referring to the experience of just one insurance company which in three and a half years settled claims involving 1,O49 cases of in- juries, the report says: "The loss of 82 eyes in the presumably safe oc- equations of merchandising, farming, and textile manufacture is further proof of the statement that serious eye accidents are likely to occur wherever men, women and children are employed. There is no such thing as really non-hazardous oc- cupation."
 The committee found that although from national point of view the metal manufacturing industries are the source of the greatest number of serious eye injuries, in Pennsyl- vania the coal mining industry ranks first as a cause of industrial blind ness. In Wisconsin it was found that hand tools constitute by far the greatest single cause of eye injuries, being responsible for A per cent. As an example of the important part that eye injuries play in the whole problem of indus trial accidents the report cites the expe- rience of large shipbuilding com- pany in whose dispensary 38 per cent of all injuries treated were eye cases were treated in the dispensary of this one company in one year.

AT THE THEATER

The feature at the Liberty Theater last night proved to be a master piece; those people who saw it are loud in praise, and are advising ev- eryone to see it tonight. It is ten reels, but it could go on to twenty of the same wonderful acting with out tiring the audience. Many Phil bin and Norman Kerry prove their right to stardom in this play. All the actors carry their parts perfect ly, and the settings are exactly suit ed to the playing. Outside, every theater advanced their prices on this feature, but it is being shown here at the regular prices.
