MINE RESCUE MEETHERE ON LABOR DAY

Teams From All Parts of Indiana Will Come to Demonstrate Life Saving Eipciency,

Delegates attending the convention of United Mine Workers, district No. 13. heard an interesting talk on first aid work at the close of Tuesday's ses•eion and were given an opportunity to view the new rescue truck stationed in this district when William Forbes, in charge of mine rescue truck No. 5, appeared in tbi9 city.

The new apparatus is a Ave-ton truck capable of attaining a speed of five miles per hour. It is large and has the same equipment as the railroad car stationed here. The truck is being operated by the United States Bureau of Mines and employs 13 men, according to Mr. Forbes. There are' two of the cars in Indiana.

Mr. Forbes informed the convention that a mine rescue contest will be held here on Labor day with teams from all parts of the state invited to participate. It was also announced by William Mitch, secretary of the miners organization in this district, that all expenses of the winning team to the national convention in Pittsburgh next Septemiber will be paid by the district.

In speaking to the convention yesterday, Mr. Forbes said in part: "We want to teach you the methods of first aid. The Unite?. States congress appropriates $1,500,0c? every year for this training. It is'paid for and if you don't get it, it is your fault. I have so far received very few requests for training. "At present I have been Kept busy training for the state contest to be held in Terre Haute on Labor
