Fighting the Industrial Accident Hazard
Devils Lake Journal)

NDtVIIS Lake JOurNaO
Industrial accidents cost the nation the gigantic sum
OF $5.O0O,000,00O a ear-mo than IL per cent Of total
earnings OF ~29,OOO,OOO industrial workers, according to
H. w. Heinrich, insurance official. He estimates that
compensation paid to injured workers, including medical
aid, hospital expenses, ETC., brings the total direct cost
OF the average injury to $246. while the hidden cost, due
to delayed operations, loss Of time and the like, is four
times as great as the direct cost. This is a tremendous
financial burden to both workers and industries.
Yet great progress has been made in recent years in
safeguarding machinery and instilling the doctrine OF
safety first" in both employers and employees. It is
said that extensive data on accidents Is the principal
need of the accident prevention program. The state OF
Mississippi IS now conducting a campaign to combat in
dustrial accidents and sickness that might well be emu
lated by other states. Under this plan, factories are
asked to fill out cards giving monthly details Of mis-
haps. This will provide the groundwork for necessary
safety measures.
Only unceasing vigilance on the part Of the workers
ployers, can conquer the industrial accident menace.

TODANTlS;THEA
eAgHA

On June 18, 1917, the province of
Catalonia, which embraces the city Of
Barcelona, was in political ferment
and threatened to secede from Span
ish dominion.
The revolutionary protest in Cata-
lonia was provoked because of the
pro- German feeling of the Conserva-
tives, led by Eduardo Dato, the new
minister.
Barcelona's deputy. Senior Lerroux,
said that SPANS failure to enter the
war Oh the side of the Allies would
be indication of her impotence, fear
and incapacity.
Reports from Madrid on this day
indicated that the demand for radi-
cal reforms was acute all over Spain
and that a thorough liberalization OF
the electoral, military and economic
laws was inevitable.
On this day on the western front
the French captured a German sa-
lent in Champagne between Mont
Carnillet and Mont Blond; and the
British fell back east Of Monchyle-
Preux.

There is something revealing in the news dispatch
which tells how business places at Mohall closed w
while everyone in the village went to one Of the foul
churches to join in prayers for rain.
Atheists might think about that fact when they plar
to convert the world to a hard materialism and a dis.
belief in everything which cannot be seen, touched OF
proved to the satisfaction of the finite mind.
When desperation grips the soul; when the last re-
source has been exhausted and all else seems to have
failed, human nature turns instinctively to a higher
power. A mans prayers may not be Immediately an
swered but very often the fact that he has prayed proves
a source of new strength. He finds hidden resources
which enable him to go on to final success.
This may account for the fact that some of the great
est and most successful men the world has known have
been firm believers in the power and efficacy of prayer

kind for some thousands of years,
but it was recognized as a contagious
condition only in 1900. It usually
manifests itself as an acute inflam-
nation of the skin, but because of
it's severity it's effects are felt
throughout the whole body.
The beginning of erysipelas may be
a wound or abrasion of the skin so
small that it cannot be seer with the
naked eye. Into this wound the
germs enter, the ~causative organism
being a form of the streptococcic or
ganism of the same family that
causes scarlet fever, heart disease,
septic sore throat and innumerable
other complaints. If it were not for
the resistance that people usually
have in their bodies, erysipelas would
be much more frequent than it really
Is.
The name in which erysipelas
affects the body generally is to set
up a severe fever with a chill and, as
ISOLATED with this, all of the symp-
toms of an acute intoxication or pois-
oning of the body, such as headache,
loss Of appetite, vomiting, and even
delirium.
Erysipelas starts most commonly on
the face around the nose and eyes,
but other places in which 1t appears
not infrequently are around ulcers
of the leg and in connection with sur
gical wounds. The condition is such
a virulent inflammation that it has
been called st. Anthony,s fire. Be-
cause of the speed with which erysi-

Citizens Of Tarrytown, N. Y, are trying out a simple
scheme which some of them believe will enable the town
to wipe a lot of old accounts off the books by the end
Of June. The chamber Of commerce instituted the sys-
tenn, which merely consists Of passing along certain
checks as fast as they are received.
The chamber sells the checks for S. each to service
clubs and chamber members. AS soon as a check is re-
ceived the recipient must use 1t within "a hours to pay
a debt or to buy merchandise. The checks are to be
kept moving until June 81. Not until then can they be
deposited in the banks. Promoters OF the plan believe
it will take care of $4,000 worth Of old debts in that time
Four hundred checks were in circulation the first day
Business houses used them to pay employees. Each check
is supposed to change hands 80 times, doing $50 worth
Of business.
This looks like a neat and clever plan. The same re-
suit could be accomplished, of course, without the cham

New York, June 18.-Once upon a
time, the tenderfoot was pictured as
a ludicrous figure dancing to the
tune of six-shooters, while playfully
cowpunchers roared with delight.
Now it's the wild westerner who is
learning to dance-and to the tune
OF cash registers played upon by the
tenderfoot. For the dude" invasion
It would seem, has stampeded the
10-gallon hated gentry into compe-
tition for the tenderfoot trade.
And since the t%enderfoot remains
the tenderfoot, he demands to be
whisked into the midst of the prairie
with comfort and ease and speed.
Wandering into my office the other
day, Joe Cahill, dude ranch ambassa-
dor from Cheyenne and way points in
Wyoming and Montana, leaves the
information that a dude ranch" spe-
cial train will run out Of Chicago
regularly through the summer, and
airplane service will deposit the po-
tential wild weSternerS' in the
midst of the cattle country.
Shades of covered wagon days and
mule teams!
But 1t seems that the tenderfoot
don't want to "go western" until they
get there.
Dudes" are now roped and
branded in the foyers of the fashion,
able hotels; they are herded in the
SWankiest sections of the "avenOos"
and dude ranch" headquarters are
maintained these days within easy
reaching distance of school marms
and social register matrons who want
to rough it.
AS a matter of fact, it's becoming
quite the smart thing among a few
of the society folk to buy their W
western rancheroS.

Gangland Not Immune

Efforts of the federal government in breaking up the
AL Capone gang, for the plea of guilty Of its chief Car
hardly be construed as anything but abdication. serve
notice upon the metropolitan cities that the gangster
can be run down and made to pay the penalty society
imposes upon such outlaws.
1t is a sad commentary upon the police administration
of the cities where gangs have operated and terrorized
since the adoption Of the volstead act, that a few honest
fearless and bribe-proof officials could get the results
which eliminated in Capones plea of guilty in the fed
eral district court at Chicago.
Attorney General Mitchell comes in for praise. The
transfer from the treasury department to the department
of justice of the handling of the liquor violations was
a wise step and sufficient proof of its wisdom is con-
tanned in the results gained in the last ten days at Chi
cago and Joplin, Mo.

IT'S an Ill Wind

The old adage "'Tis an i'll wind that blows nobody
good" finds apt illustration in the fact that current
economic conditions are forcing increased use Of Ignite
coal in areas where 1t formerly was sneered at.
Even the best Ignite is a ~low-grade fuel when com.
pared with bituminous Goals from the lower middle west
which formerly were used in this area. It requires more
Ignite than bituminous to make a given quantity of heat
and for many years there was a Discrimination on the
part Of industry to monkey" with 1t.
Now, however, the story is different. Where it is pos.
sible to save money by using Ignite that fuel is getting
the call. The old prejudice Is vanishing and this fuel
is being given a chance to show what it can do. New
appliances and sound engineering practices, applied to
this new fuel. are helping to make its use profitable. A
q result. q new era Of prosperity for North Dakotas coal
mining region may be dated from the time that economic
necessity forced industrial users in this area to recognize
lignites merits.
That the swing toward Ignite is on Is demonstrated
by recent statistics, compiled from the reports Of North
Dakota railroads. They show that during the five-week
period ending April 10. 5,842 tons Of Ignite were shipped
out Of the state Is compared with 1882 tons during q
similar period In 1880. This u an increase Of nearly
1000 tons. It points the way.
