URGES SILICOSIS
DUST HAZARD
Be REMOVED

Geneva (ILNS). 49, Addressing the
World Silicosis Conference here, DR..
R. R. Sayers, Senior Surgeon of the
Division of Industrial Hygiene of the
U. S. Public Health Service, declared
it was the view of his division that no
worker should be removed from work
to which he is accustomed, and at
which he is able to earn his living.
merely because a diagnosis of simple
silicosis has been made.
eve hold, rather DR.. Sayers ex-
planned, that the atmospheric dust
in which he works can and should be
brought within safe limits. If this is
done, his siiicosis will not, we feel, adj
vance appreciably more rapidly than
if he were made clerk or given out
door employment. And if it is not
done, removing him and putting a
fresh man in his place will expose an
other worker to the same hazard.
We urge that the man be left
and the dust removed, rather than
that the dust be left and the man
removed
when active tuberculosis exists, it
is another matter. Every tuberculous
, worker should be removed from a
dusty industry, put under treatment
and not permitted to return. Any
further exposure to silica will BE harm
ful to him and he constitutes a danger
to his fellow workers.
"Since infection is the main cause
Of serious progression Of silicotic f.
brosis, the adoption Of those preven-
tive measures which will materially
reduce the possibility Of contact with
pulmonary infection may serve to
postpone, # not actually stop, the
progress Of early changes (fibrosis)
in the lung tissue.
We feel that such preventive meas
ures may and should be 50 efficient
that no disability due to silicosis will
develop in the usual working lifetime
It appears quite possible that the
worker with a non-disabling simple
silicosis will be safer continuing in i
so-called dusty industry where the
dust is properly controlled and from
which tuberculous workers are care
/ fully excluded, than if he we're trans
ferred to non-dusty work with less

Thousands Attended
Labor Day Outing

Thousands of laboring men, their
families and friends attended the La
Dor Day celebration and outing at the
Butler County Fair Grounds last Mon
day With an ideal day all set for an
outing, it certainly was it.
In the afternoon the crowd was not
so large, but in the evening swarms
Of people came by foot, bus and in
their own automobiles. By o'clock,
thousands were there, and with them
went pleasure dealt in different va
rieties.
The members of the committee who
were present from morning until clos
ing time did good job with the scant
help on hand Too bad, indeed that
many who were appointed on the com
mittee did not even appear on the
grounds all day. However, the labor
movement in Hamilton has not lost its
identity under the guidance of the Co
operative Trades and Labor Council
and the American Federation of Labor
There was not single hitch to mal
the festivities of the day and the com
mittee and the volunteer workers
should be congratulated and thanked
for the success of the Labor Day 1895
outing and celebration.
