47 Farm Survey Reporters 'Hold Organization Meet deaths; lack of guards on ma- SOLINA (Staff) -- A six-mem- ber farm safety council, which will have the power to add repre- sentatives from other rural or- ganizations in Durham county wishing to participate, was Thursday night set up in the community centre here when 47 farm accident survey reporters held their first banquet and or- ganizational meeting. The 47 reporters are Durham farm folk who assisted the On- tario Department in its provin- cial farm accident survey from March 1, 1959 to March 1, 1960. COUNCIL MEMBERS One member was elected to sit on council from each of the six townships in Durham. Glen Lar- mer will represent Cartwright. Mrs. Ralph Preston will repre- A sent Manvers. Marshall Larmer will represent Cavan, Mrs. Alfred Allin will represent Darlington. Mrs. 8. J. Lancaster will repre- sent Clarke and Milford White will represent Hope township. Mr, White, being one of the farm accident survey reporters who attended the organization meeting of the Ontario Farm Safety Council in Toronto. He represented Durham county at the provincial council organiza- tion and is a member of that| tion raised whether or not the council will cover farming com- munities, such as villages and] hamlets in the county. The president. said Durham county is in Zone 2 of the On- tario council.

Wright, provincial farm safety specialist with the Ontario department of agriculture, Guelph, guest speaker at the Thursday night meeting, told the reporters, farming is a danger- ous occupation. He pointed out construction and mining are the only two indus- tries in captivity which record more fatalities each year than in farming. SPEED BIG FACTOR "The biggest cause of acci- dents on the highway, and around the farm today is speed. Every- one seems to be in a hurry to get somewhere, or to get the chores done around the farm. In many cases this hurry, or speed, |causes the death or serious in- lury of our farm people today," the safety specialist stated. The place to teach safety is in Mr. Wright pointed out teen- agers and children were involved] in nearly 800. accidents in On- tario last year. It is this group which accounted for most of the farm accidents and deaths. AGE GROUP The 20-30-40 age group account- ed for most of the farm accident property damage in Ontario last year. In the United States, with the organization of a farm safety council and a full time safety spe- cialist farm fatal accidents were cut by 20 per cent in Minnesota from 1944 to 1952, 40 per cent in Kansas from 1945 to 1952 and 30 per cent in Ohio from 1946 to 1952.

Speaking about safety around| the home, Mr. Wright said a ter- |rific number of fires and electri- cal shock cases are blamed on "faulty wiring". FAULTY WIRING "This is definitely not the |cause of fires or electrical shock. The cause of these "faulty wir- ing" fires and electrical shock is mainly due to overfusing. People are putting too large a fuse in many places, and that is the | cause of what is commonly call-| ed 'faulty wiring', he said. | During 1959, there was only one fatal farm accident direct- ly connceted with hydro in On- tario, the Ontario Hydro Com- mission reported, Mr. Wright told| the gathering. With the use of slide graphs, the safety specialist pointed out 19 per cent of all the accidents, involving farm people during 1959, were traffic accidents. These traffic accidents account- €d for 45 per cent of the total of farm people killed during the past year, 15 per cent of the total days off work and 24 per cent of all farm medical bills. Driving tractors on roads re sulted in 79 accidents and nine fatalities. Medical bills from these 79 accidents totalled $3600 and property damage totalled $16,000. RECREATION ACCIDENTS Off the farm recreation ac- counted for 12 per cent of the accidental farm deaths in 1959. These recreational accidents to- tallied 134, 26 fatal, 108 involving personal injury, and 1344 days lost.

After the reporters voted unan- imously to form the Durham farm safety council, the agricul- tural representative urged those in attendance to point out to all groups, not represented at the meeting, they may have repre- sentation on the council if they want to. At the suggestion of Clarence Allin, Newcastle, it decided to in- struct the council to call a meet- ing at the end of 1960. This meeting will be an annual meeting and will include safety reports of what is being done about farm safety in Durham and some sort of safety promo- tion program. Those who will be invited to attend will include people who served as farm accident survey reporters, members of the safety council and representatives of af- ted organizations. PUBLIC UTILITIES NEWS IN BRIEF Commissioner Henry Baldwin was appointed public utilities commission representative to the off the farm accounted for 57 per {cent of all fatal accidents in- volving farm folk in Ontario last year.
