The “recess” of school days might be profitably introduced in
industrial plants accidents, studies made by the New York State
Department of Labor incidate.
The studies, made to ascertain the fundamental causes within
the individual that tend toward industrial injuries, particularly in
machine operation, show that age, intelligence, experience, general
health and fatigue are the ranking factors in the worker’s tendency
to be injured in machine operation.
Statistics shows that persons under 20 are more subject to in-
jury than older employes. The age of 32 seems to mark the time
of greatest resistance. This resistances holds nearly steady until the
56th year is reached, when the resistance curve declines.
Age and experience curves of resistance run closely together. It
is fair to assume that lack of experience largely explains the liability
of youth to injuries. Thorough preliminary instruction, with strong
emphasis on the dangers of industrial accident, would lessen this
tendency.
Fatigue of workers clearly explains the fact that accidents usual-
ly occur toward the end of the morning and afternoon working per-
iods and more still, at the end of the work-week, the New York
Labor Department says. Short mid-period rests or “recesses,” have
been found effective in lessening accidents and in increasing produc-
tion. The remedy is simple and easily applied, and there seems no
reason why it should not be in more general use. '

THE UNION REVIEW
Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins in her Labor Day address
presented a much-needed plea for the aging worker in industry. The
age limit in employment has been extended and tightened until now
it is “a menance and a terror to thousands of family breadwinners
when they reach the age of 45 or 50.”
“If this age limit policy continues to develop,” she said, “the
economic problems of many workers will start at 45 instead of at
65 or 70.”
The secretary gives figures. In 3,871 establishments studied in
Massachusetts, 230 factories had no male workers 45 or over; 137
had less than 10 per cent of such workers, and 434 had 10 per cent
but less than 20. In the radio industry, only 7 per cent are over 45;
in insurance companies, 23 per cent. Chain stores give only half as
much work to older men as regular retail stores; in banks, 40 per
cent of the workers are above 45, and in the manufacture of silver-
ware, 54 per cent of men employed were above that age.
Age limits come chiefly from two curses of modern industry: the
speed-up in manual occupations, and the go-getter demands made
of salesmen, as in the insurance business.
Labor has recently begun to correct this evil. In the settlement
of a painters’ strike in New York, the terms expressly required the
bosses to employ a certain proportion of older men. But govern-
ment and industry must co-operate before the problem can be solved.
We would like to see an all-day Sunday closing law
for grocery stores, fruit stands and meat markets. A
state law authorizing incorporated cities to regulate their
Sunday closing of various lines of business and a city
ordinance with public sentiment behind its enforcement
should accomplish a satisfactory solution of this problem.

Idaho is meeting an emergency with emergency treatment.
During the first six months of the year, Idaho’s traffic deaths
increased alarmingly. Idaho officials didn’t attempt to correct the
situation with talk and vague suggestions. Instead, the governor
ordered the department of public works and lawenforcement to util-
ize, their joint man power, finances and equipment for the purpose
of properly policing, and supervising roads. Vacations of all patrol-
men were cancelled, and seven new officers were added. Additional
patrol cars equipped with radios, loud speakers and special lighting
devices, were purchased.
It is too early to know the result of this emergency action, but
Idaho is doing something. Traffic deaths and accidents have in-
creased lately in most all states. Sporadic safety campaigns are start-
ed in bursts of enthusiasm that soon die. Brief law enforcement
drives are instigated and then forgotten. And the accident toll
soars.
Dismissing all humanitarian considerations, and looking at the
accident problem from the economic standpoint alone, accident re-
duction is a burning necessity. Last-year the direct cost of highway
accidents was more than a 'billion and a half dollars—and the indi-
rect costs were several times as great. Today we actually spend half
as much money, directly, to pay for accidents,, as we pay for gaso-
line. The average cost is $43.00 per family per year.
Will Idaho make a dent in highway slaughted? Other states
should watch the experiment.
