MORE ABOUT FOOTE equipment. For over thirty-five years it has vigorously promoted 1 mechanization and the modern - i ization of all phases of mine op eration and serves as a clearing house for minnig in the Nation's Capitol, keeping the industry in-1 fomed as to matters in Congress; and in the numerous Govern.! ment agencies. The Congress fur-1 ther works for constructive ac tion which will adequately re cognize mining”s special pro- ! blems. . ... . t Representative Burns told em- j ployees that Foote Mineral’s safety retord has gained national reciognition. and that he made use of every opportunity to re mind other members of the Con gress about the six-year safety. record at Foote. Since most of the large mining areas of the United States are located in the Midwest and Northern sections of the country.: it is seldom that a Southern min ing company receives national recognition. "1 thoroughly enjoy telling my colleagues about the success of Foote Mineral”, Burns said. "And the entire mining industry is proud of your record”, he told employees. James R. Reeves, safety repre sentative of Liberty Mutual In- i surance Company, reported to the ; employees that the record estab- i lished by Foote Mineral employ ees is the best in the state, and is comparable to any other safe tv record anywhere in the nation. "Six years without a loss-time aivident is almost unheard of”, said Reeves. “And the people of, Kings Mountain should be ex tremely proud of this achieve ment”, he added. A national safety award given an.iually to the mining company which has the greatest number of ■ man hours worked witnout a loss time accident, and the larger mining company’s have a tremen dous advantage of the smaller plants because of the large num ber of workers. Mining Congress representative! Bunns told the« mployces that al- : though a smaller operation does-, n't have the opportunity to accu mulate a large number of man hours worked during a given i year. Foote's six-year safety ree | ord is probably the longest period j of time* that any mining opera lion in the nation has gone with out a lost-time accident. Upon receipt of the Safety A ward. President Neil Johns<«.i ex pressed his appreciation to the employees and praised their ef forts for making the Foote Min eral Company one of the safest operations of its kind in the Unit ed States. "This award is one which al] of us here ar-> proud of.” Johnson saiii, “And it it our primary ob jective here at Foote to make still further strides in safety a ehievement”, he concluded. More than 7,000 medical re- I search projects are being con-1 ducted in facilities of the Veter- ! 3.200 professional personnel with more than 1.100 technical and administrative assistants.

Correct inforjnaiion is invaluable to a free people and for keep ing a free people free. ' Few other nations of the world are as fortunate as the United States, which, through the wisdom of their forefathers, is le gatee of a heritage of freedom of speech, of assembly, of re ligious worship, and of the press. Maintaining of these freedoms has not always been easy, but they have nevertheless been maintained through the years. A free press is the cornerstone of the others. Without the disse mination of the news—factual information gathered by train- ( ed professional newsmen — the other freedoms would soon be abrogated in practice, if not in the text of the United States Constitution. .>* 1*. m trout i\m* a m.
