ACCIDENTS!!!
WASHINGTON. July X Hugging
the earn of workers in munition fac
tories has been suggested in Kngland
as si means oi lessening the growing
number of acidents arising from «f
forts lo increase speed in production.
“Speed of production inevitably is
tending to a more than proporionate
increase of accidents," says the re
port of an investigator for tin* M ini
* ion Workers' committee, received
here in consular dispatches '‘Acci
dents depend in the main an care
lessness and lack of attention of the
workers, and so the more one can
eliminate this lack o! attention and in
crease concentration upon work, the
I more will accidents be reduced.
“One wants to induce in all workers
throughout their hours of labor the
same mental outlook as is present in
the night-shift workers in the early
hours of the morning These work
men have for tin- most part forgotten
the pleasures and excitements in
dulged in shortly before coming on
night shift, and they have nothing but
an unexhilarating breakfast and bed to
look forward to.
“Such a mental state is impossible
ot a< hievement b\ the day-hilt men,
but something in the way of mental
calm and equilibrium can he attained
by stopping all conversation except
that relating to tin- work in hand,
it the workers would consent to if .and
so shut out the noise of the machinery,
which is in itseli an important cause
ot distraction and fatigue
Again, if it were pracitcabel. it
would be of value to shut out the
sight ol surrounding objects, h> sep
.it.tling the lathes or other machines
from one another- b> partitions
"At a fuse factory, when the oper
ativ« were working a 1. hour day.
the women s a< idents wen two and a
hall time- moie iiimiernii than in
the subsequent ten-hour period; but
the men's accidents showed no di!
lVreiice. \t all lactories inquired into,
the night shift workers su I feted fewer
accidents than the day shift workers
the average defect being lb per cent
This was due to the night-shill
workers settling down to a calmei
mental state than the workers on th»
day shift, and so becoming less rare
less and inattentive
In all of the factories, the ac i
dents increased considerably as tin
weather grew colder and diminisheii
as it grew warmer
