Increased Efficiency?

North Dakota mines turned out
1882 72 tons Of Ignite coal in 1888
with the expenditure Of 1885, 04 man
hours Of labor. thereby showing q
marked improvement In efficiency
over 1892 when It required 2,os2. 246
man hours to produce l.739, SIS tons,
according to data issued by the fed
eral government.
That Improvement in efficiency,
however, carried with 1t cost Of an
other kind which, II 1t Is not cur
tailed, viii prove q serious boomerang
to the Ignite industry.
This Is the cost Of accidents, both
fatal and non-fatal.
While working at the slower pace
of 1882, two men were killed and l55
were injured, but under the stresses
OF 1883 production, six were killed
and IA were injured. The death
rate jumped from 1855 per million
hours Of labor to 3.3ll per million
hours. The accident rate jumped
from 74.0S3 to 77.063.
On the whole, the smaller mines
had the highest accident rate, those
in Morton and Grant counties lead
ing the list with death rate OF
41.17l per million hours and an &C.
cident rate Of 226.40. Mclean was
next with q death rate Of 1892 and
accident rate Of 77.76o, and Divide
county was third with . death rate
Of 4.945 and an accident rate Of 1886.
Burleigh county had no fatalities but
its accident rate of l3l.669 was Sec
ond on the list.
Underground mining continued to
be the most dangerous with the death
rate of 4.4o8 per million hours and
an accident rate OF 50.697. Open cut
mining was the safest with q death
rate of 1927 but an accident rate Of
142827. Surface mining showed .
death rate Of 2.4l6 and an accident
rate of 48.328.
The survey makes no effort to dis
close the reasons for the increase In
accidents, the probability being that
they are almost as numerous as the
total number Of mishaps reported,
but two general explanations suggest
themselves.
One Is the effect of too strenuous
competition on the workman himself
The man who knows that q score of
others are willing to take his Job is
liable to over extend himself and take
too many chances in an effort to
make a good showing before the boss.
The second is tendency on the
part Of employers to disregard safety
measures. It costs money to keep
equipment In the best Of condition
and to maintain sound safety prac-
tees. A faulty brake on mine car
would be replaced in good times, but
under the pressure OF economic con-
ditions there Is always the temptation
to make 1t do q little longer. The re-
suit, occasionally, Is q death which
might have been prevented.
All Of which constitutes q sort Of
cock-eyed economy. The increase II
tons ol coal mined per man, when
compared with the cost OF increased
accidents, must make rather Q sorry
showing on the industry's ledger, fol
every death must be paid for and
every injury must be treated at the
industIy's expense.

Q.N.S).-Reading Of love letters

DR.. J. Preston Kennedy, the man

State in an attempt to show

Defense Objects
Reading of the letter was per.
mltted over the objection of de-
tense attorneys, who already have
presented and identified las let
tiers from DR.. Kennedy to the wom-
an, who is charged with having
mixed him a poisoned whisky

match letter for letter.
In reply to the objections of the
defense, Mr.. Jordan declared:
Through these letters we
hope to show malice for the
crime, If any crime was COM

Charges made by Charles A. Nc

Middle West Utilities Company
as "a bucket shop" were on rec
ord today in the "town meeting"
hearing before Federal Judge
Walter c. Lindley.
Mr.. McCulloch made the charges
in defense of his receiverShip of
the giant holding company. An
annulment of the receivership is
being sought on the charge that
collusion existed between Mr.. In

and the banks. Mr.. McCulloch
said:
"There was a three million
dollar employees investment ac-
count, built up from the saw
ings not only of officials but
of wage-earner employees, and
the insults had sunk it in

MINIMUM WAGE
LAW URGED
-- so 4 Mai

BOSTON, Feb. IA G.N.S3.-An
interstate minimum wage law af-
fecting only women and minors,
had been drafted today by rep
resentatives of seven States, de-
spite the efforts of woman
to have men included in its pro-
visions.
Maine, New Hampshire, Massa-
chusetts, Rhode Island, Connecti-
cut, New York, and Pennsylvania
were the States represented at the
conference and into whose legis-
latures the provisions drafted by
the conference will be introduced.
Miss Charlotte Carr, commits
sioner of labor and industry of
Pennsylvania, sought to have a
minimum wage law laid down for
men on the ground that it would
accelerate the movement for the
protection of male workers, even
though the provision was not
adopted by the legislatures.

LAND|S DOUBTS
EXCHANGE BILL
VALIDITY
Trade Commissioner Says US.
Power To Regulate Mart
Is Not Certain
BY International News Service
James M T,ondiS Federal Trad

James M. Lands, FEDERAL Trace
Commissioner, today told the
House Interstate Commerce Com.
mittee that the constitutional
power Of the Federal Government
to regulate stock. Cxchanges "is not
free from doubt"
Reviewing decib ons of the Su-
preme Court in d any cases, how
ever, he conclud.d that a care
fully drawn kI would be held
within the power of Congress be-
cause of the effect of stock ex-
change transactions on interstate
commerce. He added:
81 myself have had doubt
about some Of the bills intro
duced in Congress, among them
the LaGuardia bill in the
Seventy-SecOnd Congress"
The most powerful argument
for constitutionally, cited by
Lands, consisted of decisions of
the late Chief Justice Taft in
upholding constitutionality Of the
packers-stockyard act and the
grain exchange control law.
He said:
"SureIy the stream Of Sc
curities moving in interstate
commerce is something in
which Congress has an interest
and power to control"
While transactions on the New
York Stock Exchange are all
within the State of New York,
he argued, interstate business is
affected. The solvency of banks
depends largely upon the stock
exchange, commodity prices are
affected by the prices of stocks,
and the tax collected by the
Government is affected by move
ment of the market.

Hits Bill as Burden

NEW YORK, Feb. IA Q.N.SO-
Opposition of the New York Stock
Exchange to the proposed national
securities control measure before
Congress was recorded. today by
Richard Whitney, president of the
exchange.
Whitney declared the measure
would destroy the odd-lot business,
and would probably prove so bur-
densome to many corporations
that they would be-. unwilling to
keep their securities listed on any
exchange. He added:
However, the exchange is in
hearty sympathy with the pur-
pose Of the bill insofar as it
seeks to prevent manipulation
Of security prices and unwise or
excessive speculation"
