This figure is noticeably lower than the total for 1924 which was $6.122,- 820.3- . While compensation award- ed has been less. the total number of accidents has been greater, amounting in 1925 to 60,012 as compared wi‘n 58.675 during 1924. -L‘ ‘LA «100;- a‘IIIUUIILIll‘ u -v_- compared wih 58.675 during 1924. One notable feature of the acci- dent statistics. however. is the de- crease in fataltes. the total num- ber of fatalities in 1925 being 345 which is considerably less than the figures for 1924 which were set at 402. This alone is a most impor- tant item to the whole Province. It is evident from the figures is- sued by the Board that while minor accidents show an increase, prob- ably due in part to better reporting. the serious and most costly types of accidents are on the down grade. In this connection. Mr. V. A. Sin- clair. K. C .. Chairman of the Work- men's Compensation Board. giving out the figures for 1925, states: “There has been a great deal of attention paid during the present year to accident prevention work. which no doubt has been in some measure at least responsible for the lessened cost of compensation. and the safety organizations are ex- pecting to carry on a much more intensive campaign during the com- ing year. and they are in hopes thereby to reduce the frequency. severity and costs of accidents in all classes."
