Old Death Certificates
Wore Not Quite Definite
Troy, N. Y. ill'' Records at the
office of the Troy Health Center
reveal that many years ago the
causes of death were indefinite
and varied anything from "decay
of nature" to "visitation of God."
Recently Dr. James H. Flynn.
Troy health commissioner, perus
ed the old death records. Here are
a few contributory causes listed
In records of seventy or eighty
years ago:
"Born still," "sore mouth,"
"worms," "killed by stagecoach,"
"fits," suffocation,' 'fright," "sud
den pain Internally," "killed in
clay bank," "kicked by a horse,"
"killed by cars," "dry mortifica
tion, age 60." '
Today, however, physicians are
required to give the primary and
contributory causes of death in
signing a death certificate.

effoit. Statements of availbllity
Issued by employers or war man- j
power commission officials serve'
as evidence that transfers are 1
beinc made In the furtherance of !
the war effot. !
Q. loes the regulation "freeze"
workers In their present lobs?
A. It does not. In areas where !
employment stabilization pro
(Trams are in effect workers may j
terms of such programs. In other
neas they may transfer to Jobs
at the same or lower waKc rates.
No restriction, however, is placed j
upon the transfer netwif-n activi
ties not Included In the essential
activities list and from such ac
tivity to essential activities.
Q. What effect does this regu
lation have on existing rights of
employes under agrc-ements with
thi-ir present employers?
A. Xone whatever. Since this
regulation Is concerned only with
transfers of workers to other em
ployers the rights with the pres
ent employers are not affected.
Q. John Smith Is working In a
plant making musical instru
ments. The Job pays $1 an hour
and he works 40 hours a week.
He wants to take a Job in a rail
road round house where his pay
will be SI 10 an hour and he will
work 48 hours including eight
hours of time-and-a-half. Will he
Ik- permitted to change Jobs under
these circumstances?
A. Certainly. Production of
musical instruments is not classi
fied as an essential activity. Rail
road transportation service is
classified as an essential activity.
Tlie fact that the railroad Job will
mean more pay does not prevent
Smith from making this change.
Q. Sam Jones is working full
time at his highest skill in a war
Industry in Detroit earning SI.25
an hour. He can get a Job doing
the same kind of work in another
var plant where he will receive
SI. 30 per hour. Will he be author
ized to change Jobs?
A. No. The fact that he can get
moi-e money in a new Job is not
a valid reason for making the
change.
Q. Ben Harris Is working as a
lathe operator in a war plant. He
w ishes to transfer to a similar Job
In another war plant at higher
py. Can he make the transfer?
A. No. Unless the new employer
Is covered by an employment sta
bilization program.
Q. Could Harris move from the
present Job to another war Job at
a higher skill and a higher wage?
A. Yes, if his new employment
is in an area or industry covered
by an employment stabilization
program.

Centuries before Hammamet's

Barbary pirates had fought and

fort was as characteristic as its
church. Travelers made a point of
seeing the ancient citadel with its
grass-covered courts and rusty
cannon. The lofty tower of the
neighboring mosque made a bear
