This is an increase of 75,077 1 over the number of accidents tot employees that employers reported to the Board in 1950. There were 202,637 new work- rnen ’ s compensation claims indexed in 1951. Thus, the great majority of work accidents reported by em ployers, again in 1951 as in pre vious years, were minor injuries for which workmen ’ s compensation indemnity was .not even claimed. The number of new workmen ’ s compensation claims in 1951 (202, 637) increased by 21,318 over new claims in 1950 (181,319), but the percentage of new claims to total of accidents reported by employers was unchanged, namely, 23 per cent. The Referees of the Workmen ’ s Compensation Board held 524,482 hearings in 1951; handed down 477,942 decisions; closed 190,575 claims during 1951. (61,606 of these workmen ’ s compensation claims were closed without awards because issues of fact and law were decided by the Referees against the claimants on the evidence of record, and this is substantially the same ratio of non-compensated claims to total closed claims — 32 percent. — as in previous years.) In 1951 there were 14'0,320 medical examinations of claimants by Board physicians. For the fourth consecutive year. Court appeals taken, in 1951 from Board and Referee decisions de clined in number. Although in 1951 there were 477,942 Referee decisions and 15,150 decisions by Board panels, only 343 appeals were filed in the Appellate Divi sion off the Supreme Court, Third Department. An assembly devoted to the Bill of Rights was presented by the fifth and eighth grades of the Haverstraw Elementary School on Thursday, February 21.

One of the miracles of our life today is the fact that yesterday ’ s miracle so quickly becomes today ’ s commonplace. Take for example the antibiotics, the well-named “ Wonder ” $ drugs. They have advanced treatment of many diseases to a point un dreamed of a short decade ago. Yet now their tongue-twisting names have become familiar; their wonders an accepted fact. All antibiotics are produced by molds. But only one, Chloromy cetin, is commercially synthesized as well. In this synthesis, Methyl Dichloroacetate, one of the many fine chemicals manufactured by Kay-Fries, is a direct intermediate. The high standard of quality of this Kay-Fries product helps make Chloromycetin possible. Through technical advertisements, such as the one shoivn, Kay- Fries supplies information to American industry with the belief that these suggestions will lead to new and still, better products. The skill, pride of workmanship and cooperation of all its men help make Kay- Fries a good place to work. KAY - FRIES CHEMICALS, INC. WEST HAVERSTRAW, N. Y.
