New Mexico Election Hope Abandoned In Mexico Crisis

Father and Son Injured in Duplicate Workplace Accident
Olympia Oct 14 The most peculiar coincidence in accidents since the workmen's compensation act went into effect was reported to the industrial insurance commission. A father and son of the same name, John Melcher Sr. and Jr., both ages 40 and 18, were injured at the Tillicum Development company plant in Loomis Okanogan county within an hour of each other. Each sustained a mangled left thumb while cutting wedges with a drealer saw. The son had the more severe injury and remains disabled, while the father has returned to work. The commission investigated the twin mishaps, noting the near-identical injuries as evidence the same accident occurred twice. A soft mark is nearly always hard up.
