A "noar accident" may bo defined aa a happening, the nature of which Is dangerous to persons, but which did pot result In Injury owing to the for iunato absence of a man from a par ticular spot, or to his quickness, or to the merest other chance, but the recurrence of which Is always a peril— a peril which should be abollshod by proper care. A familiar Illustration of a near acci dent is the case of n person caught be tween two trains traveling in oppo site directions on different tracks, but who escaped death or Injury by lying down between the tracks. There are many other such instances of esuapod Injury, Inside as well as outside tho Industrial shops. Tools and materials flopping from scaffolds and roofs, but etrlklng no one. Ladders falling or slipping with men who land unhurt, vehicles skidding and Just missing pedestrians or other vehicles—all these are common occurrences. These aro but few of tho many In stances that will suggest themselves to the average reader, but In every Instance of this kind there is a lesson from Which every one should profit "Near accident*" are a fruitful source of suggestion, for precautions to be observed, and for rule* to be formu lated tor the avoidance of dangerous practice*. Regrettable as It may bo, however, the tact remains that too little atten tion is paid to "noar accidents." It seems to require actual accidents to startle us sufficiently. This should not be so. There is Just as much in struction to be had from "near acci dents" as from actual accident. "Safety nrst" work Is a study and prevention of accident causes, and It should not require the theft of a Horse to make you redUlse the Importance of locking the bafn. Good safety work Is seeing that there Is a lock on the barn door before the attempt Is made to steal the horse.

STATE DEPARTMENTS HELP All Buildings Where Food and Sup plies Are Stored Will Be Guarded Against Destruction By Fire or - Waste. Organization of one of the most ef fective patriotic bodies In the statu has recently been perfected by spe cifU agents, Inspectors and field men of virtually all Are Insurance com panies doing business in North Caro lina. It Is the purpose of the organi zation to make Inspection of all build ings whero food supplies or clothing supplies may be concentrated to guard against possible loss by Are of any goods which are needed In the prose cution of the war. The organization was perfected re cently at a conference of Insurance men in the office of State Insurance Commissioner Jamm R. Young in Kalelgh. Present at the meeting were Governor Bickett, Commissioner Young, a. Y. Tupper, of Atlanta,. Southern manager of the Queen Insur ance Company, Milton Dargan of At lanta, Southern manager of the Royal Insurance Company and A. M. Schoen, engineer foe the National Board of Fire Underwriters. The conference .was also attended by J. M. Broughton, Jr., and A. T. Bowler, president and secretary respectively of the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce and Prof. W. A. Withers, president of the Raleigh Rotary Club. Co-operation of all the machinery of the State Executive and administra tive departments was pledged by Gov ernor Blckett and Commissioner Young. A committee of insurance men was appointed to arrange the de tails of the campaign and the plan to be carried out contemplates the dis tricting of the entire state, each dis trict to be under the supervision of one oT tho Insurance men who will make frequent Inspections of all whole sale houses or food depots, grocery stores or other places where food stuffs are concentrated. Other In spector* will look after cotton gins and cotton warehouses and all kinds of depots. Tho work thus done is under tho supervision of experts who will give without cost their trained experience to aid In the National campaign against unnecessary Are waste in the stringent war period. While these men are representatives of Insurance companies, the work thus undertaken la under the direction of the National Government and the direct supervision of tho Council of National Defense. Recommendations will be made and Instructions In fire prevention given to citlzehs and property owners and where It Is necessary property owners may be compelled to follow these In structions given by these Inspectors as war measures. Tho campaign Is part of the nation wide plan adopted by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. Similar organizations have been made or are being made In every state. Represen tatives of tho National Board at the meeting held in Raleigh atated that the work was better understood by the Insurance men in North Carolina and tho campaign gives better promise of accomplishment here than in any state they hod visited. Commis sioner Young has been urging work of this sort—that Is the adoption of measures to prevent fires and the subsequent unnecessary waste of food ond supplies—since the war started and through a continuous series of appeals to the cltixens of the state, city and icounty officials, a considerable amount of success has been accomplished and it is the bellof of the commissioner that the people are familiar enough with the situation to carry the plan on to a greet suc cess and in this manner to add to the campaign North Carolina's "bit" In a valuable work. PREPAREDNESS. The man or woman In the United State* who is not aroused to the ne ceaslty of preparedness for what the men must bear and do for the coun' try and civilisation in this war does pot realise the seriousness of the sit uation. We should, we must think. We must act. Take In the situation and thon aa true North Carolinians, true Americans, measure up to the occas ion. We must give, we must invest fn bonds of our country. We must raise foodstuffs and all that Is necessary to feed and clothe ourselves and our sol dlers, our allies and their soldiers. Make it, save It, protect it from fire.

It Is unfortunate that the re -1 port should have gone out to newspa ' pere throughout the nation leaving the * impression that there might be an 1 organized protest or a protest of any ' proportion from North Carolina against a condition such as the country now faces. North Carolina Is fortunate in ' being more than 99 per cent. Ameri can. Recent war .census figures show 1 that less than one per cent of the ' population of the state Is foreign born. The people of North Carolina ' t will be found always ready to support the powers that have charge of the [ conduct of the war that has been thrust upon America. In some parts of the country serious s complications have arisen with Indus trial socialistic organizations. State F and county officials and In some in stances troops have had to be called ' to cope with the situation. In the Dakotas army officers have been warn j ed of an organized plot to destroy I great crops of grain as It is harvested I and stored. Throughout various parts ( of the country have come reports of arrests of supposed German spies or pro-German agitators. But none of this sort of activttiy has been reported in North Carolina so far. i There remains but one enemy of the j people of North Carolina and that i enemy by proper effort is the easiest l' of them all to cope with. It is care . lessness. Abundant crops are now i ready to harvest or have already been harvested. The urgent need in North i Carolina is what may -be termed a i 'burning need. It is that every | farmer, every farm wife, every farm | employee, every boy and every girl on •every farm in the state should use i every care to see that these food crops I and tills cotton Is protected against the [ danger of destruction by fire, t North Carolinians have little to fear i from alien enemies or their sympa ! thlzers because there are few if any ! here. Incendiary fires are few and ! those that occur are the outgrowth of * personal enmity and not the acts of I enemy agents. It is incumbent upon i every citizen to see that preventable i fires are reduced to a mnimum. Every | I ounce of food destroyed or unnecesari i ly consumed ,1s an ounce of treason 1 ignorantVor intentionally committed. 1 The fact that insurance is carried | and that the value of the burned food stuffs may be collected In money doee 1 not even tend to mitigate the loss. When foodstuffs burn in a time like this money will not replace it. Every ounce of foodstuffs produced is needed somewhere while thousands are suf fering from the lack of sufficient food. The duty which so plainly faces North 1 Carolina Is the duty to guard against themselves. A little care and the practice of ordinary precaution against the destruction by fire of crops in , barns and warehouses will conserve the foodstuffs that the promised boun tiful crops will yield. It Is the duty of each to see that carelessness does not permit their destruction. If North Carolina crops are destroyed in barns or in storage it will not be by the ' hand of an alien enemy or an erratic | pacifist for there are none of this class I roaming this section. Nor will it be | "an act of Providence," but the inevi table result of purely human negli gence. IN THE WAR AQAINBT WABTE.

Washington.—The Forty-first nation al guard division, comprising troops from Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho and Wyoming, has been ordered to train at Camp Oreene, Charlotte, N. C., and Camp Fremont at Palo Al to has been abandoned because the California state health authorities have decided that a latarine sewerage system such as the war department proposed would be Injurious to health of the community. Secretary Baker, announcing the change, said that the war department could not see it* way clear to spend half a million dollars for such a sew erage system as the state health authorities thought necessary In a tem porary camp. Decision to transfer the division to Camp Greens caused much speculation as to the possibility that the troops would be sent to France at an early date. No confirma tion of the report could be obtained In any official quarter, however. "It would mean a month's delay to build a water carried sewer system and the camp at Charlotte is now prac tically ready. The transfer of the di vision to Charlotte, Secretarly Baker explained, would make it posstble to get the division under training with out delay and bring it 2,600 miles Closer to Its paint of embarkation. Reports that the Forty-first division might soon follow the Twenty-sixth and Forty-second divisions to Franc* apparently were founded on the fact that the far west Is not strongly reip resented In the Forty-second or "Rain bow" division and the Twenty-sixth Is composed entirely of New England troops. The Twenty-Sixth and the For ty-second are In process of concentra tion and both probably will be ready to go as soon as shipping Is available. SITUATION IN RUBSIA GROWS ALARMING Washington.—Russia's critical Inter nal situation, aggravated by the new German drive against Riga threaten ing the capital, Is watched by official* here with grave concern. It became known that official advice* are closely In accord with press dispatches de scribing grave political conditions. The outcome of the forthcoming extraordinary national council to be held In Moscow Is awaited here with interest scaroely less keen than in Russia Itself. The Immediate fate of Russia, it Is felt, depends upon It. Out of the great gathering, lni which the conservative elements of all sorts are expected to unite In an effort to compel the provisional gov ernment to throw off the socialistic control of the soldiers' and workmen's council, one of two results Is expected: "The formation of a strong central ized government capable of rapidly reorganizing the army and resuming the offensive against the central pow ers or open civil strife."

MW HOOVER BY ■SHI FOODS FROM LOSS BY FIRE GREATEST CO-OPERATION 18 PROMISED BY WAREHOUSES, COTTON GINS, GRAIN ELE VATORS, ETC. The National Board of Fire Under •writers has recently received Its first report covering the first three months ot the association's campaign toward the prevention of firs which is a part of the conservation campaign In aid ot the war under the general direction of Herbert C. Hoover, President Wil son's food supply director. The re port cites the fact that President R. M. Bissell, of Hartford, Conn., Presi dent of the National Board to start the work wrote letter* to the gov ernors of the cotton producing and grain growing states urging their co operation with the National Board and its affiliated organisations for the safeguarding ot warehouses, cotton gins, compresses and grata elevators, all manner of mills storage properties and such works. The strongest co operation has been received, the re port says, from all these sources. The advisory committee ot insur ance officials were appointed In dif ferent sections of the country to work with state officials on inspections and safeguards. Meetings have been held .In alxiost every state and property owners as well as state officials and insurance men attended. Great inter est and hard work have resulted and ,th« special agents of companies In every field have been mobilised for conservation work. The inspectors on this work have been given special authority In the form of a letter or Identification card carrying the photo graph and signature of the bearer with the proper authorization attested. In spections have been educational and owners have been very quick to fol low suggestions for Improvements. The National Board Committee has been In close contact with the activi ties ot the conservation board under the administration of Mr. Hoover and has prepared a thorough list ot elev* tors with their grading and specifica tions for fire dangers. In addition to the conservation service the National Board has furnished valuable Infor mation to the Council ot National De fense in classified lists of factories oapable of manufacturing munitions and other rar materials.
