Accident Statistics
Are Scored by Neill
Chicago, Sept. 17.—Laws
bracing a uniform system for re¬
porting industrial accidents and
that will prevent the use of phos¬
phorus in the manufacture of
matches were demanded in reso¬
lutions to be forwarded to con¬
gress passed by the American
Association for Labor Legislation
at the closing session here.
Following an attack by Charles
P. Neill, United States commis¬
sioner of labor, on methods em¬
ployed by some of the states in
gathering industrial statistics,
the association appointed a com¬
mittee to draft a substitute bill
providing a form of reporting
industrial accidents and occupa¬
tional
“The statistics that some of
our states hand out pertaining to
industrial accidents and occupa¬
tional diseases," said Commis¬
sioner Neill in discussing the res¬
olutions, ’' ‘ ‘are vicious and should
be suppressed. Unless we can
prepare better statistics bearing
on these great problems there
should be none at all."
The resolution urging an anti¬
phosphorus law was based upon
recent investigations in Europe
and America indicating that phos¬
phorus is not necessary in the
manufacture of matches and that
phosphorus poisoning in the
match industry can be eliminated.

Announcement
“To the Voters of the Third
congressional District: I have the
ambition to represent the Third
district in congress. As to my
fitness and worthiness, I propose
to submit that to the voters of the
district, along with the other gen¬
tlemen who may aspire to the
honor, in a democratic primary.
“I am a farmer, was born and
reared on a farm in this district,
e contribute^ all that t I
possibly could to the advancement
of the farming interests of my
section of the country.
“As a member of congress I
would be controlled largely by the
same desires and purposes that
have actuated me as a private
citizen in advancing the farming
interest of the state and country,
which ultimately is the interest of
every person, whether merchant,
lawyer, doctor, banker, mechanic
or citizens following other callings.
“I shall be glad to meet the vo¬
ters face to face in every county
of the district before the day of
election.
Sincerely
