this practice because surplus and
undivided profits make up a smaller

items do in the capital structure of

AS the action Of the supreme court

Attorney Phillips urged the adop.

declared that the adoption of The

Safety Economics

Ohio employers who are today en-
gagged actively and sincerely in the
work of preventing accidents are in
fluenced by two considerations-the
interest they owe to the physical wei
fare Of their employees and the neces-
sity for eliminating a form of eco
nomic waste that is largely inexcus-
able and which can exert heavy in
ence on production costs.
Ohio employees who are properly
imbued with the spirit of sfaety will
accept evidence of the interest of in
dustrial management at it's full value
and cooperate fully and cheerfully in
the carrying out of any measure de-
signed for their protection and the
improvement of their physical and
economic welfare.
It will profit YOU to go along with
any safety program in your plant.
