Has the Industrial Accident Rate Declined Since 1913?

Abstract
The condition and form of our federal and state accident statistics do not permit the formulation of a satisfactory answer to this question. As United States Commissioner Ethelbert Stewart has continually pointed out, adequate machinery for the collection of industrial accident statistics simply does not exist--it is as thought we were so little interested in these deaths and injuries that we did not care even to count them!
