Safety Director Cites Case- p.

Of Accidents in Factories. _ CHICAGO, Oct. 6 (U, P.).—When 8 male supervisor tries to kiss a woman scooter truck operator during working hours, he is taking an awful chance, She may run the truck over his toes. Mrs. Ann Fox, head of the woman's safety program of the air serv:ice command, yesterday described

. the incident of the amorous su- f=

pervisor in an address about pre- §

cautions taken to safeguard women *§

in aircraft, at the. national safety

' 33d annual meeting.

congress But the case of the supervisor and § the scooter truck operator, it was a matter of safeguarding the man, Mrs, Fox said. = : ; The safety engineer's answer to the standard question on the injury § report as to what action was to prevent recurrence was: “instruc ted supervisor to discontinue amor- | ous advances to women employees.” Especially women who Operate trucks, It's things like that which!

turn a safety engineer's hair white, &

she said. Another argument in favor of slacks in the plant, besides the fact

that they can't get caught in ma-|%

chines as easily as skirts is that neither can slacks blow over a girl's headin case of a sudden wind, Mrs. One plant accident occurred when & messenger, driving a scooter over a warehouse dock, turned loose of the wheel to catch her skirt when it suddenly blew up over her head. “She caught the skirt,” said Mrs. "Fox, “but unfortunately, nobody caught the scooter.” 2 Rings Are Hazards The biggest problem is getting women to take off their jewelry,.and 8 wedding ring is considered an industrial hazard, she said. “Women started out in a very modest way in the aircraft industry, working as clerks and stenographers, | ! but today 45 per cent of air service command employees are women,” Mrs. Fox reported. Now, women who before couldn't Operate a can opener are firing steam boilers, welding, tinkering

with aircraft instruments, and generally handling any job a man ean | handle.

With intelligently conducted | safety programs, usually headed by | women, the female defense workers |

have put away their high-heels and pompadours and have brought their

injury rate down to 1.92 per cent, |

she explained. “Women have decided they would |

rather wear a safety cap now than!
