A SUPPER TO SING FOR!
Two deaths and SOS non-fatal ac
cidents occurred in the w ork o f the
II. S. forest service in Oregon and
Washington during the calendar
year 1932, according to report just
issued by the regional office at
Portland, Oregon.
Douglas Decraft, laborer, was
struck by « failing tree w hile sleep
ing in a tent on the Mount Baker
national foiest last fa ll, and killed
instantly. James Dumont, who sus
tained hack injuries in a fall while
w orking as a laborer on the Ump
qua national forest September 22.
1929, died July 18. 1932.
Most o f the injuries were incurred
w hile fighting fire and were eaused
by falling, slipping, use o f tools,
fa llin g of trees anil other objects,
and liftin g or pulling.
Most of the injuries were to the
back, 16 in all. Next in order are
38 knee injuries, followed by some
