WASHINGTON (U) i spallation
v up-to-date dust control by Ameri
can industry would .vt approxi
mately $300,000,000 annually, J. J.
ayoomfleld. O. 8. public health sanl
tarr engineer, estimated today.
He said that 1S.000.000 workers In
manufacturing, mechanical and min
eral industries would have better
health, fewer accidents and longer
life If current knowledge In con
trolllnc dust were utilised, tjnder
his proposal, particles would not
fill workshops where men were
doing those hazardous activities
which are necessary for our present
civilization.
"It has been estimated that the
minimum expectancy In ;vlngs to
employers and employes from an In
dicated reduction of the accident
rat and of the time lost on account
of Illness (or an equivalent reduc
tion In mortality), demonstrated as
attainable. Is 20 per yeai per em
plove." Bloomfleld said.
"This estimate Is for plants whose
accident rate la considerably below
the average, and In which there are
no occupational harards. It Is quite
apparent from these figures that
the savings In plants where haz
ards are known to exist shculd ne
far In excess of this conservative
estimate.
"When one realties that In this
country there are approximately
1.1.000.000 workers enfragort In manu
facturing, mechanical and mineral
Industries, then It 1 evident that
the magnitude of the problem has
not been overemphasized."
Bloomfleld said that there are
four methods of dust control In
operation at present:
1. Substitution of non-dust-pro-duclng
or harmless substances: A
non-slllca compound has been used
successfully for foundry molds, with
resulting saving on the lungs of
workers, who otherwise would have
breathed the harmful silica. Dm of
steel Instead of sand in blast rooms
Is another example.
3. Isolation of the dusty opera
tion: In the up-to-date abrasive
cleaning room, only the person work
ing is exposed to this hazardous
process and ho Is equipped with a
protective helmet. In some f the
old-fashioned plants, this work la
done In the open and all laborers
are exposed to the bad effects.
3. Wetting the dust at Its source:
Appllcatlcn of this principle cut ex
posure risks more than 00 per cent,
according to tests made In anthra
cite coal mine operations. Under
this process, msny less particles of
dust had an opportunity to float
In the air and thus, permit some
of them to get Into the miners'
un& .
4. Local exhaust ventilation: This
Is one of the most effective and
widely applied of dust control
methods.
"In some dusty occupations the
methods of controlling dust have
not been developed." Bloomfleld
said. "Industrial operations, such
as removing cores from very large
foundry castings, sand-blasting,
handling of used storage battery
plates, paint chipping and cad
mium oxide manufacture, appear to
offer no practical means of ade
quately controlling dust generated.
"In such cases. It is necessary to
furnish the worker with personal
respiratory protection devices to
prevent his exposure to the harmful
effects of the dusts present. These
devices consist of various types of
respirators, masks and helmets."

New Starter Device
A new attachment for automo

The new device holds the starter
shaft In a fully extended position,
thus Insuring full gear mesh, and
bringing Into full use the back
parts of both gears, even thouga
the teeth of the fly-wheaj gear ar
cut back, or badly worn. It also
supports the starter drive spring to
such a degree that spring break
age Is reduced to a minimum.

ACCIDENTS ARE MENTAL
" If we had no brakes at all on our
cars, we'd drive along at a crawl (and
probably injure nobody).
When our horn won't work, we al
ways drive a lot more carefully.
Actual statistics show that fewer
people are killed (in proportion) in
accidents on slippery, icy streets than
on dry, safe streets.
The moment an ordinary road is
changed into a fine, safe, four-lane
highway, the accidents become more
numerous .and more serious.
All these things prove that accidents
are mental. We have them when we
are surest that we .can't. In other
words, we have them when we want to.
They're within our control. They're
mental.
The answer is, LET'S NEVE
THIXK WE CAN'T.
We crash and kill whenand when
things seem safest.
The lesson is, when everything seem!
rosy for a little reckless driving, let's
not start feeling our oats.'Sg I i
Let's not, for instance, be fooled into
a false sense of security by a fine wide
road.
It is apparent safety that is the most
dangerous. Most of the 36,000 people
killed in automobile accidents last year,
and most of the 954,000 injured,
according; to statistics of The Traveler!

BY NEAPOLITANS
FOR KIND ACTS
NAPLES. (UP) Prof. Giuseppe
Moscatl, charitable physician who
died here eight years ago, haa been
sainted by the Neapolitan populace.
McW-att enjoyed n wide fame
throughout the Naples area during
his lifetime for nls goodness and the
purity of his life. The revered phy
sician carried on his profession pure
ly for philanthropic purposes, al
though he was a poor man. His sole
purpose In life was the alleviation
of suffering and Illness among hu
manity. Moscatl was one of the four emi
nent physicians who gave up hope
for Enrico Caruso at the Hotel Ve
sure of this city on August 2. 1921.
at the solemn consultation which was
held by the four specialist over Uic
great tenor's Illness
Their Judgment was borne out, for
next day Caruso died.
The spiritual, devoutly Catholic
Neapolitans today consider the pro
feasor a saint, rfls body; by special
permission from the archbishopric c!
Naples some time ago. was exhumed
and placed In a crypt In the Church
of Jeaus In this city. Moscatl'a body
is worshipped by th clty'a populace
as though the holy physician had al
ready attained sainthood.
Before the profeaaor'a tomb In the
church large numbers of faithful,
mostly in ailing health, kneel and
pray to him. They place lighted can
dies before the tomb and tn return
ask miracles and cures of the phy
stclan as they would ask miracles of a
fully canonized saint.
The church was compelled to bow
before this popular sentiment of ne
cessity tolerating this veneration of
a layman.
Proceedings Tor beatification of
Professor Moscatl were begun some
time ago by the church authorities
The body was permitted to be pla-:d
In the church crypt because It is
expected that his beatification will
one day be realized.
Keokuk. Icwa, was named after a

OTTAWA, Ont. (UP) Canada's
unemployment relief camps, where
from 20.000 to 40.000 young single
me have been earning their keep
an 2t cents a day by building roads
mi aarycrta for the last four years,
t fee gradually abolished by the
Damlnlon government.
The camps were established
throughout Canada In 1032 in an ef
fort to slve the unemployment prob
leei among single youtha living in
lara urban centers. The Idea proved
popular. In the last two years the
camps have been a "happy hunting
ground" to communists for foment-
'ng trouble and the scene of many
riotous disturbances.
The government's first move In the
scheme to abolish the campa will be
Ut transfer them from the super
vision of the department of national
defense to the labor department. The
Dominion hopes that improvement In
trade and employment which la ex
pected to follow In the wake of the
new trade agreements with the United
States, Japan and other countries
gradually will provide outlets for the
camp dwellers, and enable the gov
ernment to close the projects.
Millions of dollars have been ex
pended In the maintenance of the
relief campa during the last two years.
The 20 cents a day allowed the youtha
for luxuries alone cost taxpayers 91,
500 .000 a year, and mil 1 ions were
spent on food, clothing, bedding, fuel
and other necessities.
Since the camps were Inaugurated
about 70.000 single, homeless unem
ployed men have obtained relief.
About 40.000 have been dropped for
various reasons. Many stayed for a
few months only. Hundreds have
drifted frome one camp to another.
The chief complaint against the
camps haa been that tena of thou
sands of young Canadian were herd
ed together, prevented from living a
normal life, and deprived of amol-tlon.
The y-uths themselves grew more
and more discontented with their
monotonous existence in the camps
and were willing vlctlma of commun
istic agitation. The discontent blos
somed into a series of riota In Sas
katchewan and British Columbia,
scene of the largest camps, end the
abortive "hunger march" to Ottawa
last summer.
Lending a willing ear to agitators.
12.000 youths living liv campa from
coast to coast fell in with an or
ganized plan to march to Ottawa and
demand work loat summer. Federal
authorities stopped the march and
forced the strikers to return to the
campa.
After an Investigation, R. B. Ben
nett, then prime minister, of Canada,
charged that the march was organized
by Soviet agents for the purpose of
kidnaping him and establishing a
"Red" regime.
Liberal leader always have opposed
the projeotfl and have branded them
as "slave camps." The policy of the
newly-elected liberal government will
be to eliminate rather than perpetu
ate the campa.

suffered from rheumatism.
Tills waa shown by the skeleton
of a stone age man dug up in re

barrow, in the Cotswold hills, in
the west of England. This atone age
veteran showed extensive signs of
osteoarthritis. Indicating that when
alive he waa crippled with rheuma
tism. Experts take this as a sign that
the climate of these Isles was at
least as chlllaome in winter as it

this discovery were glad to know
that they are not the only auffer
era from rheumatism, or "the

ing to Mr. Abbey. Mrs. Susan B.
Robards of Ashland and R. E. Dou-
Rherty of Rogue River purchased new
1936 Lafayette Victorias. Mr. and
Mrs. Claud- Stevens took delivery
of a new 1936 Lafayette special
sedan and John Mace of Central
Point is the owner of a new Lafay
ette sedan.
Mr. Abbey says: "The Lafayette
line la proving exceedingly popular
because it provides Nash quality la
the low-price field. One of the
outstanding features, aa in all other
NBsh models, is the roominess of
the seats. The car, rated as a five
pansenger model, really seats six
persona with great comfort due o
the width of the seats. The front
seats will accommodate three per
sons without crowding the driver
at all.
"In the Lafayette line the aeats
were designed aa result of extensive
studies of the problem of seat de
sign from the standpoint of human
anatomy.
"Recent road teata of all Nash and
Lafayette models have demonstrated
the fundamental efficiency of the
cars from the standpoint of ope
rating economy."
