ACCIDENTS ARE PREvENTABLE

About pa million persons were dis.
abled in 1914 because of industrial
injuries, Secretary of Labor Frances
Perkins reported in summarizing pre-
liminary estimates made by the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics. "This exper-
ience marks the end of a continuous
upward trend in work injuries which
began in 1888, and represents a sub
stantial decrease from 1943," she said
Injuries in 1914 were nearly 8 per-
cent lower than in 1943 and the actual
loss in working time was a least 10
million days less. This is equivalent to
full annual employment for $4,000
workers.
"Here is additional proof that at
tention to unsafe working conditions
and the elimination of unsafe work
practices through adequate instruc-
tion and supervision of workers can
bring about marked decreases in work
injuries. During the 4-year period end
ing June 80, 1914, the field safety ex-
perts of the U. S. Department of La
Dor brought working knowledge of
industrial safety technique to nearly
10000 plants engaged in the produc-
tion of war materials.
During 1945 the Department of
Labor will continue to render every
possible assistance to management,
labor and organized safety groups.
Through the consulting service of it's
volunteer and full-time field safety
force, through it's safety drives for
special industry groups, through its
safety training program, the depart
ment hopes to enable industry to make
the 1945 record another witness to the
fact that accidents can be prevented.

AS nearly a dozen small Dutch vii
lagos in the southern part of Limburg
province were recently added to Hol-
lands liberated area, each place re-
vealed identical examples of terror and
executions carried out by the Germans
during the days of battle.
The story of what went on in the
village of Susteren before it's capture
by the allies was told by 3 miners
from nearby Roermond who had been
brought to the town by the enemy
to do forced labor on defense work.
When the Germans were driven from
the villages, these men hid and saved
themselves from the fate that befell
the other inhabitants. Along with the
civilians, the Germans had also ship
ped off to Germany all the horses and
cattle they could lay their hands on in
these villages.
The miners reported that 10 in
habitants of Susteren had been exc
cuted for refusing to work on the de-
fense projects, while every made be-
tween the ages of II and So whom the
Nazis could not use for forced labor
in Holland was shipped off to Ger
many. The enemy also carried off all
unmarried women and girls, not only
in Susteren but also in other nearby
communities.
The remaining population was evac-
uated to Posterholt, a border town G
miles from Roermond, where they
were forced to live A and families
to house and on extremely short ra-
tions. The miners themselves were
in starving condition when the allied
troops found them. They were almost
the only civilians.
Similar conditions were found in
Echt, where deportations were begun
by the Germans Nov /. 7, but-unlike
Susteren and Schilberg which are now
little more than collections of rubble
the pleasant little red brick houses
of Echt are comparatively little DAM

tack" the Presbytery said. 1t further
asserted:
"Peacetime conscription would breed
distrust among the nations and would
start another vicious circle of COM
petitive armament. 1t would plunge
our own nation into course that
could end in militarism which has
plagued Europe.
Transcription is not an instrument
of goodwill but of war. We urge that
every instrument of goodwill be used
in accordance with the spirit of the
Prince of Peace, under whose guidance
our nation has thus far been richly
blessed"

Women Strike At Champion

Approximately ITS women en-
ployees of the Champion Paper & Fiber
Co. went on strike Tuesday morning
when they learned that the War Labor
Board had refused their request for a
12-cent-an-hour increase in pay.
The walkout is the result Of SINH
lar action last Friday when $50 left
their jobs for short time over the
wage dispute. After conferences Fri
day night, delegation was sent to
Cleveland to confer with the WLB in
an effort to settle the controversy.

Los Angeles Labor
Assails Peacetime
Military Draft

Los Angeles (ILNS). - Because
peacetime military conscription "has
been used repeatedly in Europe as a
weapon against labor" the Los An
geles Central Labor Council has Of
ficially denounced the proposal that
peacetime conscription be continued
after the war. The resolution says
that the conscription criticism is bas-
ed on the idea that the individual cit
izen is merely a pawn" in the hands
of unlimited state power.

Don't Force Food
On Children. Says

1.-The majority of all children
taken to child specialists are
brought to them because of lack
of appetite" So said DR.. Vir-
ginia Howard, director of the
maternal and child health divi-
sion, Mississippi State Board of
Health, discussing the fundamen-
tai principles to be followed in
making the child want to eat nu-
tritious foods.
Many parents" she warned,
make the mistake of trying TO
force their child to eat by using
threats, pleading or offering
brides. It is important that meal
time be a pleasant period, free
from scolding or nagglng. Par
ents should be casual and patient.
especially when the child daw-
dies over his food or refuses to
eat il. The best way to insure

To a large extent, the child can
choose the kind and amount OF
food that he needs, provided it
is on the table for him, stated
the physician. If he has a mark
ed dislike for d certain food, DIR.
Howard suggested that an accept
able substitute which is equally
n%ourishing should be offered him,
rather than insisting he eat some
thing to which he has a marked
aversion.
