Ohio Child Labor
Facts Released

An analysis of child labor in
Ohio has disclosed big drop last
year in employment of minors
under Is and a rise in the rate of
injuries to these minors.
The child labor analysis, pub
lished by the Ohio Department of
Industrial Relations, shows minor
employment dropping from 95,o62
in 1853 to 57688 in 1854, a drop
of 80 percent.
Last year injuries occurred at a
rate of seven for every 100 youths
employed. This was one-fourth
greater than the 1853 rate.
The decline in child employ
ment in 1854 broke off a long up
ward trend. Employment figures
are the number of work permits
issued minors under 18.
Director Margaret A. Mahoney
of the Industrial Relations De-
partment, in commenting on the
analysis, said it is the first ever
published in Ohio. She added that
it not only will help her Depart
ment enforce child labor laws, but
will be useful as well to legiSla-
tors, government agencies, and
the interested public.
The analysis shows that employ
ment of boys fell more than girls
last year. Work permits issued
boys went down 43 percent as
against a drop of 35 percent for
girls. Director Mahoney commen-
ted that an unusually large de-
crease in minors working in manu-
featuring industries, where most
ly boys are employed, helps ex-
plain this difference.
The child labor law analysis pre-
SentS data from as early as 1949.
Additional facts brought out by
the analysis are: II girls are
steadily becoming a larger proper
tion of the total employed, p
about one third of work permits
are issued for regular full-time
employment and the rest for part
time or vacation work. - heaviest
employment of minors is in retail
and wholesale trade.
Miss Mahoney said the child la
Dor analysis is available upon re-
quest to the Department of In
dustrial Relations, 221 State Of
flee Building, Columbus.

Streams Face Red
Menace In Ohio

COLUMBUS, O., = Ohio's Real
Red Menace, is the title of an art
icle in the current issue of the
Ohio Conservation Bulletin, auth
ored by Charles A. Dambach,
Chief of the Ohio Division of Wild
life. AS the name implies the Red
Menace is an estimated two and
a half millions tons of sulfuric acid
which annually flow from coal
mines into the Ohio River basin.
The Bulletin article further
points out that "at least one ma
jor stream in each of 26 Ohio
counties where coal is mined, has
been adversely affected by these
wastes; additionally, seventy-eight
streams in the fifteen leading coal
producing counties have been SER
iously damaged. All in all more
than 300 named streams are known
to be affected in the state" Rae
coon Creek, once considered the
finest smallmouth bass stream in
Ohio, is almost completely devoid
of fish life and dozens more are
likewise gone.
In answer to the question, what
can and should be done about the
acid mine waste problem in
Ohio?", Dambach points out the
first step should be positive rec
ognition that the problem is of
real significance and that we are
short-changing future generations
to allow it to continue unchecked.
There are means available to cope
with many situations. Funds
should be provided for research to
constantly seek more economic So
lutions to the problem and al
though the nature of the problem
requires government participation.
major responsibility should rest
with the coal industry"
"Ohio, with but two percent of
its coal reserves mined and, with
most of its production coming
from type of mining which acid
waste f ormation can largely be
prevented (strip mining) should
not permit further drainage to its
streams. Certainly this generation
in utilizing the coal resources
should not forever impair more
vital resource for future genera
tions."

Weed Burning f.ot
Good For Topsoil

COLUMBUS, OHIO About
this time each year wildlife Off
cials are concerned because too
many people get the urge to start
a fire and such places as fence
rows, stubble fields, roadsides,
grassy fields and railroad margins
feel the brunt of this BURNING.
Few persons know why this burn
ing occurs but some people think
burning off controls serious insect
pests and weeds. Actually, author
tiles of the u. S. Department of
Agriculture make no mention of
the use of fire in controlling HARM
full insects; good farming practices,
however, are stressed. The use of
insect and weed killing sprays,
proper harvesting methods and
crop rotations are used effectively
in modern agriculture.
1t is unfortunate this burning
takes place about the same time
that Ohio's first rabbit litters are
born, during the entire month OF
April. Many young rabbits, still in
the nest, are killed by these
ground fires. Since the first lit
ters of rabbits and the young they
produce will make up a large per-
centage of this falls bag, it is nec-
essary that they be given as much
protection as possible.
Apparently farmers who burn
have given little thought to the
loss of wildlife and have no idea ot
the value of organic matter in the
soil. Burning destroys materials iy
the upper soil layers that form hui
mus. An accumulation of debris
improves the water holding CAPT.
city of the soil and destroying this
upper layer may increase the need
for costly fertilizers. Metal and
wooden fences, utility poles and
guy wires are damaged extensig-
ely each year by burning highway
berms and fencerows.
Burning has little or no practi-
cal control over dormant insects
and live weed seeds, in fact, some
woody plants like blackberry
plants are encouraged by burning
and potash added to the soil by
burning, many times produces a
more vigorous growth of certain
weeds. Pests Immediately occupy
the bare spaces created by burn
ing existing grasses and harmless
plants.
Wildlife officials are urging
farmers and others not to burn if
they wish to be helpful to both
their soil and their wildliSe.

$1,000 Days Lost
In Ohio Strikes

Industrial Relations Director
Margaret A. Mahoney today re-
ported big increase In ONO
strike idleness during February.
despite a drop in the number OF
strikes.
Miss Mahoney said there were
81 strikes recorded during the
month, involving 25,000 workers
and causing 1900 man-days OF
idleness.
According to the directors re-
port, there were five fewer strikes
than in January, but the idleness
was almost four times January'S
idleness. There were also fewer
strikes than in February OF last
year, but idleness was nearly three
times the amount year ago.
Director Mahoney reported that
three big strikes were the CHIEF
reason for the jump in idleness: at
the B. F. Goodrich Co. plant IN
Akron, idling 5000 for five days;
at Ford Motor Co. plants in Cleve-
land, idling 5000 on the last day
of February: and at a number OF
foundries in Cincinnati and Day.
ton and thruout the Miami Valley,
idling 1000 for six days.
The II 1000 man-days of working
time lost in February was equal TO
loss of IL minutes for every OHIO
worker.
The Akron metropolitan area
suffered the most strike idleness
of the eight metropolitan areas.
with $4,000 man-days of loss. Gin
cinnati was next with $4,000 man
days.
The other metropolitan areas in
order were: Cleveland, $500 man
days; Dayton, 4100 man-days; Co
lurnbus, 100 man-days; Youngs-
town, 600 man-days, and Canton
and Toledo, no reported strikes.
NOTE: Work stoppages are de-
fined as either strikes or lockouts.
In this report, work stoppage and
strike are used INTERCHANGEABLE.

meeting in Columbus last week
predicted farmers some day will
raise dairy cows that produce 20
600 pounds of milk a year. peren-
NAL wheat, disease resistant live
stock and corn beef on the hoof
Researchers made their predict
ions at the National Farm Chem
urgic Council Conference. Partic-
ipating were a score of research
workers from the Ohio Agricultur-
al Experiment Station at Wooster,
Ohio State University and the u.
S. Department of Agriculture.
Keynote speaker was L. l..
Rummell, dean of the College of
Agriculture, OSU, and director of
the Experiment Station. Rummell
declared that farm efficiency had
increased 40 percent since Pearl
Harbor but the future will demand
even more. He said an expected
Ohio population of IL million by
1875 and a decreased number of
farmers would put heavy load on
the states research facilities.
F. E. Deatherage, a researcher
in biochemistry, described new de-
velopments the Ohio Station has
made in meat processing. One of
these involved use of antibioticS
infused in the vascular system of
a freshly killed steer to produce
what he called, corn beef on the
hoof."
I'VE can produce the equivalent
of six weeks of aging in a beef
carcass by infusing it with anti
biotics and keeping it at body tenn
perature for "a hours" Deatherage
declared
The scientist called present
methods of handling and storing
meat out-of-date. Butchers and
meat packers, he said, are using
cracker barrel methods, hampered
by old fashioned meat regulations.
L. o. Gilmore, associate chair
man of the experiment stations
dairy science department, said we
need more research on improving
the mineral, protein and vitamin
content of milk. Past emphasis has
been on butterfat of which there
is now an oVer-Supply.
Gilmore predicted that farmers
of the future would get 10000
pounds of milk from a cow with
out feeding any grain.
An animal nutrition specialist
from the station, O. G. Bentley
said research is pointing the way
toward greater efficiency in live
stock feeding with wider use of
poor roughage, new supplements
and hormones resulting in higher
quality and leaner meat.
