Accidents Rise As
War Output Soars
Deaths Jump Eight Per Cent
In 26 Industrial
States
Chicago (ILNS).—Expending war
production is taking an increasing toll
ol' accidental deaths and injuries, as
foreseen by organized labor, safety ex
perts and others.
With the Fnited States passing
through the early stages of conversion
to all-out industrial war production in
1041, accidental deaths reported to
workmen's compensation commissions
in 26 principal industrial states jumped
S per civit above the l'.MO total, the
National Safety Council reported.
Compensation commissions in .these
states received reports of 8,381 acci
dent deaths for 11(41, compared with
7.732 reported in 15)40.
The largest increase in accidental
deaths was reported in dnnectieut—
in 12)41 against 4!) in 1940, an in
crease of 1M per cent.
Drops in Some States
Increases ranged downward from the
Connecticut finures to 2 per cent for
both Illinois and Minnesota. New York,
one of the outstanding industrial states,
recorded a 0 per cent drop. Other state
commissions which received fewer re
ports of accidental deaths In 1S)41 were
Georgia, 7 per cent decrease Vermont,
14 per cent drop West Virginia, 15
per cent decrease.
Ohio and Pennsylvania, two other
highly industrial states, both showed
increases. In Ohio there was a 7 ier
cent increase in 11)41 over 1940, from
1,011 deaths to 1,ON1. Pennsylvania
reported a 5 per eMit increase—from
t,28U accident deaths in 11)10 to 1,339
in 1041.
Deaths t'p in December
The council's information is obtained
from reports received each month from
the state industrial commissions.
For December alone, accident deaths
reported to the commissions totaled
74S.conipared with 690 in December,
11)40.
Although reports on non-fatal acci
dent Injuries in occupational pursuits
are not yet complete, available infor
mation indicates the non-fatal acci
dents are increasing at a more rapid
rate than the fatal accidents.
Disabling Injuries Soar
"State industrial commission reports
for the first six months of 11)41, plus
reports received from many industrial
corporations for contest purposes, in
dicate that while deaths are up only 8
per cent, the total number of disabling
injuries has increased 25 or 30 per
cent," said W. H. Cameron, managing
director of the National Safety Coun
cil.

THE POTTER* tJERALD
LABOR NEWS
FROM BRITAIN
GREATER MANPOWER
BACKED BY TRADE I NIONS
CONSCRIPTION OF WOMEN
London.—By a coincidence which
may, or may not have been foreseen,
new and far-reaching measures of man
power mobilization in Britain syn
chronized with Japan's declaration of
war it|on America. For three days
just lefore this stujiendous event, the
British House of Commons debated the
government's new manpower proposals.
They are of the most revolutionary sig
nificance—but they have leen accept
ed, practically without demur by the
Trade I'nions, partly because Trade
Cnion representatives were associated
with the formulation of the new plans,
and Trade Cnion recommendations for
the safeguarding of the workpeople af
fected have been accepted. The pro
jected changes are of the most sweep
ing kind. But they are taking effect
without the smallest perceptible jolt in
eni-ployer-unlon-government relations.
The changes are of two kinds: (1) a
wide extension of liability for compul
sory national service affecting Imth
men and women, and (2) a radical
modification of the system of reserva
tion for industrial employment, as
against claims of military service. Con
scription for the armed services has
hitherto Iteen confined to men of mili
tary age, the age limits being from 1'.)
to 41. Practically all these age groups
have been called up, leaving in indus
try only those men of military age who
have been reserved on an occupational
basis for jobs of national importance.
The government has now tabled a bill
to extend liability for military service
to men up to the age of 51, and also to
women from the age of 20 to 51 with
the proviso that the immediate liability
in the case of women will fall only
upon the age groups 20 ,to 41.
Simultaneously, the system of bloc
reser vation for the war trades is to be
abandoned and a new method of indi
vidual reservation will
come
Conscription
into op­
eration for both men and women In
war industry.
How Women Will Be Conscripted
of women for
military
service is an innovation which lias been
accepted without a tremor of public
feeling. Such safeguards have been
agreed to by the government that there
is no serious apprehension of any dan
gers or difficulties arising in the appli
cation of compulsion to women for en
rollment in the forces.
The women aged 20 tn 30 nre to he
called up for the Women's Royal Naval
Service (otherwiit^junwn as the W. It.
N. S.) the Auxiliary Territorial Serv
ice (A. T. S. for short) the Women's
Auxiliary Air Force (the W. A. A. F.)
and any civil defense forces. They will
be given the option to service in any
of these auxiliary organizations, in
civil defense services, or in certain
specified vacancies in industries.
No married woman is to be called
up, although they may volunteer. Ex
emption is also provided for any wom
an who has living with her a child of
her own under the age of 14, or a step
child, an adopted child, or an illegiti
mate child.
Women engaged In vital war work or
service will be reserved from calling
up—but tills brings into sight the other
major change in tlie system of reser
vation for industrial employment.
Changes in Reservation Methods
Reservation of both men and women
on an occupational basis is to be dis
continued, and henceforth those who
are engaged in key jolts will have to
claim deferment of calling up notices
on an individual basis those claims
being decided by district manpower
boards. De-reservation is to take place
on the present schedule of reserved
occupations in rapid stages. The pres
ent age limits in all categories are to
be raised by one year every month, so
that men reserved at the age of 35
(say) will reach the upper limit of 41
in six months' time.
As calling up notices reach the de
reserved workers, it will lie the re
sponsibility of the employer in the first
place to apply for deferment in the
case of a key man (or woman) for
whom an efficient substitute cannot be
found. At the instance of the Trade
Unions, who feared that if claims for
deferment were left exclusively in the
hands of employers, injustices might
occur through favoritism or other dis
crimination. It has been agreed that
the individual worker shall have a
right to apply for deferment at the
time of his medical examination. It
lias also been agreed that unions will
lie free to assist in making
good
indi­
vidual claims for deferment thus put
forward.
Using Are to Release Youth
The manpower boards, which are to
deal with applications for deferment,
number 15. They will be composed of
representatives of the Service and Sup
ply Departments that is to say, a lalior
supply officer, a military recruiting of
ficer, a deferment officer, a woman
power officer and a chairman. These
are all government appointees.
It does not by any means follow that
when a board rejects an application
for deferment that the applicant will
be transferred at once to military serv
ice. Men of sedentary occupation over
the age of 41 are not to be considered
as fit for military service. Most of
them will be transferred no doubt, to
other civilian vacancies if they belong
to certain scarcity occupations alter
natively, they will enter the forces to
release younger and more fit men from
static and semi-civilian work—clerical
occupations and the like—for mobile
active service

Senator .Means Johnson of C.reenwood
was the author of the bill and steered
its passage.
The bill makes it a felony for any
person to threaten to use violence to
prevent another from entering into
any lawful vocation within the state.
Any person found guilty would be sub

not over .two years. The measure makes
it unlawful for one or more persons
to assemble at fir near any place where
a labor dispute occurs or exists and
attempt to tempt any person from en
gaging in any lawful vocation.

strikes. The Senator acclaimed: "If
your boy or my boy wants to work he
should be iierinit.ted to do so without
being forced to pay tribute to some
individual or labor union." Mississippi
has a very low labor scale.
