REPORT IF THE PRESIDENT’S
“HOMES COMMISSION.”
(Senate Document No. 644.)
(Continued from last issue)
The “Pull Dinner Pail.”
“Maltruition, whether the result of in
sufficient or improperly prepared food,
or the consumption of cold victuals, is
a fruitful cause of Intemperance.
In our sociological study of 1,217 fa
milies it was found that 750 wage
earners carried dinner pails and 250
were reported as being accustomed to
consume alcoholic beverages with
their meals. The number in each case
was greater among the white than the
colored wage-earners. Every one at
all familiar with the subject knows
that badly cooked food, especially
when consumed from the “cold dinner
pail” propudes derangements of the
stomach and a craving for alchoholic
stimulants, which in turn aggravate
the original gastric disturbance and
readily lead to the drink habit.'1—Page
224.
“Upon a conservative estimate, the
total mortality from accidents in the
United States among adult male wage
earners is between 30,000 and 35,000,
of which it should not be impossible to
save at least one-third and perhaps one
half by intelligent and rational me
thods of factory inspection, legislation
and control.”—Page 91.
“The reports of the Interstate Com
merce Commission indicate a constant
increase in the number of injuries
from railway accidents. The number
of employes killed by accidents aris
ing from the movement of trains, lo
comotives, or cars, as distinct from
those of other causes, in 1906, was 3,
700 of whom 2,310 were trainmen, and
42,962 injured, of whom 34,989 were
trainmen. The number of fatalities
to trainmen, in this class of accidents
is nearly equally distributed among
collisions, falling from trains, loco
motives, or cars and being struck by
trains, locomotives or cars. When all
classes of employes are taken into ac
count the last named cause is respons
ible for the greatest number of fatali
ties.”—Page 72.
The commission then proceeds, on
page 72, to give a list of railway acci
dents from years 1888 to J906 as fol
lows.
“The mining of coal is, even under
the best conditions, one of the most
dangerous industries. A report of the
United States geological surves shows
the number of men killed for each 1,
000 employed in the United States and
in the four leading European count
ries, the figures being averages for
five years.

“Mr. Henry Louis, in commenting
upon these statistics in Oliver’s ‘Dan
gerous Trades’ page 516 says:
Forty-one and six-tenths per cent
or two-fifths of all the accidents could
have been avoided by proper care and
intelligent thought on the part of all
concerned, and in the second place,
fully one-third of the accidents can be
ascribed to the faults of the victims
themselves.
“According to Revue Scientifiqne
the past fifty years there were no less
than 603 mine explosions in Europe
with a loss of over 5,000 lives. The
number of men killed in coal mines of
the United States is appalling amount
ing to 22,840 during the seventeen
years ending with 1906. In 1906 the
total killed was %061 and about 5,000
iniured.''—Page 70.
The Homes Commission Report
makes two specific attacks on the
profit system. On page 246 it gives a
list of nearly 400 proprietary com
pounds, sold to the American people
for the profit there is in it, and all
containing a per cent of alcohol, which
the commission in each case names,
and which renders them promoters of
intemperance. The report calls it
“nefarious traffic in secret and proprie
tary medicines.” On page 256 of the
report a list is given of some forty of
these nostrums that are sold for profit,
all of which are alleged to contain co
cain, opium or morphine and to prom
ote the drug habit which the Commis
sion pronounces to be widespread.
Another point in which the profit
system is attacked is the arraignment
of the pawn shop and the man who
makes the poor pay almost unbeliev
able interest. The arraignment is
made to include those insurance com
panies which, in order to make the
worker feel in a measure secure incase
of death or accident, drain him of his
very life in weekly payments. On page
308 is given this report of money-lend
ing establishments in the district of
Columbia, which was for seven years
the home of Roosevelt:
“There are many money lenders, and
money lending concerns in Washing
ton, (about 72) with an invested capi
tal of approximately a million dollars,
loaning money at exorbitant rates of
interest upon mortgages of furniture
and household effects, other personal
property and indorsed notes. The rate
•f interest charged varies very much;
often the rate is as low as 10 per cent
per month; sometimes as high as25 per
cent, and occasionally even a higher
rate of interest is exacted.”
