Spinning
Notes
Sofefy First!

II the company officials refuse to
take any more safety measures in
the future than they have lately, I
will head this column Obituary"
In Block 2 on a Sunday recently,
construction workers were fixing
the cooling system with the usual
(un) precautionary measures found
In the Shipping Dept. While a GER
tain spinner was making his change
q large piece of 2x4 with big spike
In the end fell and actually brushed
his head and shoulders, breaking
down some ends on the machine.
After this occurred the company
finally placed three planks in the
girder above his head and rounded
up a helmet for him TO wear. I
even noticed the fellows on the
reels wore helmet that day also.
Our suggestion is that after this
they take the necessary safety
steps first.
Two OF our more prominent COM
pany officials must have lost some
thing plenty valuable i'm back of
the machines or up on top lately,
judging from the numerous trips
they have made in the last few
days. II anything has been found
that belongs 10 them, please return
it so they won't get any more gray
hairs than they already have.
or course, there may be some
other reason for all this running 10
and fro. Is there, boys?
