S. Department of Labor, at Washing­ ton W. H. Cameron, managing director of tfte National Safety (.’ouncih said: ' “ In .my opinion the extension of the l i l t e d States Bureau of Labor Statistics machinery to collect, tabulate and analyze the data on industrial accidents in the United States, will be a decided step in the nght direction. Such institutions as the National Safety Council will cordially assist in the educational problem of Keeping the records, and in achieving the goal of minimizing the terriffic and unhecessarv losses of life and money.** * • ' Mr. Cameron outlined the courier!’s efforts to collect and present the accident statistical records of eleven of the sectional groups now contributing statistical infor­ mation. 1 IlCSC are: automotive, clm m icn l ennatrnntiA n dustrial sections are already tending their Statistical coiri- ]»ilations to other agencies and the council is not: making .an effort to comjiete nor to duplicate these reports. They are: Steam railroads, now reporting to tho Interstate Commerce Commission; the public tnilliibs, reporting to tlie Amercian Das Association and the National Electric Light Association; the mining companies, to the V. H. Bureau of Mines; the electric street railway companies, to the American Electric Railway Association; and the cement companies, to the Portland Cement Association. Casualty insurance companies are cooperating in 6v- ery possible manner in the campaign against accidents. LIGHT AND POWER When the late Charles Albert boffin set out in the '90s to sell electricity to the people, he was inspired, ac­ cording to his own words, by “ n holy faith.” That faith has l»een abundantly justified, though 'there remains plenty o f opportunity for his successors in the industry in the development of new fields of activity. As late as 1912, according to the Washington statistics, the electric light and jwwer stations produced 14,000,000 thousand-kilo­ watts of current. In 1924, the public utility power plants alone produced 60,000,000 thousand-kilowatts. The num­ ber of customers served by the central stations Was less than 2,000,000 ¡n 1907, but nearly 13,000,000 in 1924. With insurance, electric current holds the rare distinction of escaping the post-war price rise. compared with 1913 prices iu 1924 would show a perceptible decline. 4 . /JL’l % fi There «re those who foresee social revolution, by the elimination of our ovefgrown cities, through the distri­ bution of power to smaller-centers. There is to be a less­ ening o f the lure of metropolitan life by endowing the small town with the comforts of the urban apartment and the splendors of the mctroi>olitan gay white ways. Tlie same ageijcy will be employed for running express trains and dish-washing machines. One advantAge which electricity holds over its elder sister, steam, is cleanliness. The latter brought poWet, and wealth, hut Along with fhein it brought dirt Hhd grime. Electric current offers power in eomhiiiatioh with cvcanlihees.
