Kennecoff Betters Average Employes at Kennecott's Nevada Mines Division have turned in a safety record for the year 1956 that is, on the average, twice as good as the national average for similar operations. The frequency rate nationally, the number of accidents per million man hours worked, is 12.59, while at Ruth and McGill, Ken-necott Copper Corporation's personnel suffered only 5.63 accidents per million man hours worked. During the year Kennecott employes turned in a total of nearly 44 million man hours of work with only 25 disabling injuries. Close attention to safety practices on the part of each employe during 1956 is evidenced by the fact that the rate 5.63 for the year is 68 per cent lower than the 1955 rate.

In announcing the low frequency rate, J. C. Kinnear, general manager, said, "Reducing the number of accidents from 17.9 million man hours worked in 1955 to 5.6 in 1956 is a fine accomplishment and was possible only by each employe giving close attention to safe working practices. Each member of Nevada Mines Division has my wholehearted thanks." The newly created position of director of communications at Kennecott Copper Corporation's Nevada Mines division was filled today when J. C.

Kinnear, general manager, announced the appointment of John G. Smith to the post. In announcing the appointment, Mr. Kinnear said, "Mr. Smith, in his new position, has assumed the heavy responsibility of establishing and improving, where necessary all appropriate written, visual and oral employee communications and he will devise and institute effective means of reporting communication efforts, both up and down the line." Kinnear went on to say that a proper, smooth' functioning communications system is necessary to a modern corporation if management is to have the information available to make the proper decisions and also to inform employees of company events and the reason behind them.

John G. Smith has been associated with Kennecott's Nevada Mines division since Oct. 20, 1954, first in the industrial engineering department and later in the safe F. Goodman, an attorney who spearheaded the incorporption movement, and Fred I. Tourtelot, tied with 316 votes each; Lawrence M.
