Mr. Field’s letter follows:
You will be interested in knowing
that two recent decisions have been
handed down by the Industrial Ac'cident Commission inthe matter of
applications for silicosis awards filed
The first applicant had worked as
A few of these years were spent at
some iwunidentified mines in other
States. The applicant definitely was

but the history showed that he had
lung trouble ‘for a long while. Of
course most of the early years mining as done under conditions of dry
drilling and probably the ventilation was not up to the excellent
standard of today.
It was proved that the Idaho
Maryland Mines in Grass Valley had
no silicosis hazard and that the dust
contained no harmful quantities of
silica—in fact the surface dust analysis as well as those in the City of
Grass Valley were aibout equal and
in some cases slightly more than in
the underground mine samples.
The second applicant ‘had some
thirty years of mining mostly in
other states; only about three years
having been worked in Grass Valley.
The commission’s ruling in effect
was that the applicant had failed to
establish that the Grass Valley mines
had any harmful dust exposure,

at Riverside;
“For centuries Asia had great civilizations and great empires at a
time when Europe was plunged in
the dark ages,’”’ he said. “Then,
whereas Asia went to sleep, Europe
forged ahead and built up the great
civilization which is ours. Today it
would appear that the balance is
once more shifting toward Asia, and
it is now up to Europe to heed the
warning.”’
Although Asia is beset with a
great number of movements and revival of national feeling, Dr. Lobanov-Rostovsky asserted that there is
throughout a fundamental similarity
of moods and fears in all these tides
surging over Asia.
“They also reveal a tremendous
dynamic surge of energies,” he stated. “Just at the time when Europe,
after the World War is sinking into
dark night, tremendous ~ creative
nia, who spoke recently before the fforces have beeh unleashed in Asia.
Nations,which less than a century
ago were awakened by western civilization, have, after a period of gratitude, turned on their ‘benefactors,’
Propelled by greed and lust of. conquest, the westerners in the second
half of the nineteenth century proceeded to expand their colonial .possessions at the expense of the ancient and highly cultured Asiatic na‘tions.’’:
Dr. Lobanov-Rostovsky contended
that the wave of revolutions still
sweeping Asia today started immed»
iately after the Russian defeat at the
hands of the Javanese.
“From aggressive nationalism to
imperialism there is but one step and
this step has now been taken,” he
said. “But it must be. emphasized
that there is as little unity in Asia
as there is in Europe. The ChineseJapanese feud and the enmity of the
Jew and the Arab is witness to
that.”’
