FOR ACCIDENTS

What Industry Pays

Accidents cost British industry about £30,000,000 yearly, according

to Dr. H. M. Vernon, formerly in- vestigator to the Industrial Health Research Board. Не Elves his estimate in "Accidents and Their Prevention," published by (Cambridge University Press, 158).

"When over 200,000 persons are killed or injured every year on the road," Dr. Vernon comments, "the pedestrian cannot but realise that he runs a by no means negligible risk of being one of the victims whenever he takes a walk; but Dr. Vernon poirits out that huge as is this tale of road accidents, it is surpassed by the accidents oc- · curring in our homes, factories. and coal mines."į

Figures, which he has collected show that there are some 17,000 fatal accidents in Great Britain a year, while the total of non-fatal accidents in the last year quoted amounted to 377,376 for Great BM- tain and Northern Ireland. Dr. Verón Bófitiddes that there are forty times as many accidents for which no coffipensation is paid. Including the home, he puts the total number of accidents which take place every year at more than

50,000,000.
