7-Point Pla | ~~ To Save Hat M aterials

ty ; Times Special Writer :- WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.—The millinery industry has come § out. with a 7-point plan for voluntary co-operation with the gov--‘emment to save hat materials. No hat will be made with a brim '| circumference of more than 48 inches, nor a beret with more than | 38-inch eircumference. Fabric hats can’t use more than six yards | of cloth for a dozen hats. Hats made from flat felt are also limit- ' | ed to an average of one-half yard.

The = |. next two months will see an increase in the beef supply over June 2 and July, but the usual January increase is not expected this year, because stock probably won’t be held for fattening, No beef at all ‘18 going to our allies. Russia gets a good deal of pork, but dur own civilians get about three and one-half pounds of every five pounds

WITHIN A FEW weeks there will be a decision in the compulsory enrichment of flour controversy. The war food administration feels the present compulsory enrichment of white bread does not

Only one and one-half yards “of ribbon will be’ used per hat, not including the headband.

Large di industries main‘taining safety j . directors and medical stafls 3 have accounted for a relatively small proportion of eye inJuries. ; Practically every occupation is hazardous to the eye, but those where flying particles are frequent, ‘molten metals may “ bé splashed, acids or idjurious £ light rays are obviously dangerous.

Check Eye Condition

A preliminary physical exainination before entering industry should include a careful examination of the eye. Uncorrected visual defects not only lead to poor work and increased error, but to greater likelihood of accidents.

Protective goggles are of many kinds, and must be adapted to the risks present. Occupations in which flying objects are likely to occur call for goggles having © hardened glass and equipped with . gide shields. Fine particles and dust can be occluded only when " the glasses completely enclosé the eyes. Goggles of the eye-cup type should be employed when: the . hazard is the splash of acid or molten metal, Such glasses, without holes for ventilation, will pro- ~ vide protection against fumes or gases, When glare must be eliminated, colored lenses made of hardened glass should be used. Infra-red and ultra-violet rays may be filtered out by colored lenses. Y Electric are and hydrogen weld-

Most Industrial Injuries “To Eyes-Can Be Prevented

By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Times Special Writer The unprecedented drive for war production has many angles, and the prevention of eye injuries is certainly not the least important of these.

proper correction should °be ground into the goggle lenses. Goggles should be’ fitted with the same caré as corrective glasses. If they are not comfortable, they may be taken off just when they are most needed. Condensation of moisture on the lens may be re duced by applying soap to the glasses, and rubbing them until a high polish is produced. . Although goggles are probably the most important single factor in preventing eye injuries, machinery and tools designed with safety in mind, or the employment of protective shields are also ime portant. The best eyes become fatigued in the presence of faulty illumination.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20 (U. P.).— The former luxury liner Normandie rode at an angle of 30 degrees today, with the hull pumped dry of the 100,000 tons of water that capsized her when she was ravaged by fire a year and a half ago. °
