2 ARUBA ESSO NEWS February 10, 1962

ANTILLES, BY LAGO OIL & TRANSPORT CO., LTD.


Pain Knows No Strangers
Although Lago employees established an all-time company safety
record last year, there can be no let-up this year on safety at Lago.
A winning athlete who is content to rest on past laurels cannot
remain a champion for long. In safety, particularly, resting on one's
laurels complacency could prove detrimental to safety goals that
Lago employees have worked so hard for in the past.
Lago employees have every right to be proud of their 1961 safety
record. With just three disabling injuries, the company established a
record low frequency rate of 0.34. Compared to other years, this is a
significant achievement. The reduction of disabling injuries, if by just
one in a given period, is well worth working for.
But let's not lose sight of Lago's ultimate safety goal. This goal
necessarily must be the elimination of all accidents, both serious and
minor. As long as one injury occurs to an employee at work, there is
still a safety job to do at Lago. It's a high, almost unattainable goal.
But the higher the goal, the greater the rewards even though the ulti-
mate goal may always be slightly out of reach.
Any injury, to a degree, is painful. Minor injuries may cause slight
discomfort temporarily. Serious injuries may cause permanent dis-
comfort. It is the latter type injury that has wide-spread repercussions.
If an employee is disabled in an accident, he may face a long period of
healing and recuperation before he can resume his duties. During this
time there may be great pain. A handicap resulting from the injury
may affect the worker's future earning ability. Much of this directly
affects family members.
The employee isn't immune to disabling injuries after he punches
out at the end of a shift. Far from it! Both he and his family are
exposed daily to hazards in the home, on the playing fields and on
the highway. Here is where the Lago employee can put his safety
attitude and training to good use. He must impress his family that
pain knows no strangers. Not only does an accident cause suffering,
but an injury to a mother can cause hardships for little ones. If it is
a disabling injury the effects can be far reaching economically. If the
injury disables her permanently, the effects can be disastrous.
It is not enough to talk safety, to warn those at play and in the
home to be aware of safety hazards. To protect everyone, Lago em-
ployees at work or home and members of their families, we need safety
action. Accidents just don't happen. A careless act, an attitude of un-
concern or inattention can lead to sudden, tragic events. Wherever you
are act safe, play safe and be safe.


Terreno di Seguridad
Maske empleadonan di Lago a establece e mehor record di seguridad
den historic anja pasa, no por laga seguridad drumi e anja ski na Lago.
Un atleta triumfante cu ta content pa sosega ariba fama di pasado
no por keda campeon pa largo. Den seguridad, particularmente, sose-
gando ariba fama complacencia por result detrimental pa ob-
- hetonan di seguridad cu empleadonan di Lago a traha duro pa logra
den pasado.
Empleadonan di Lago tin tur derecho di ta orguyoso di nan record
di seguridad pa 1961. Cu unicamente tres desgracia incapacitante,
compania a establece un frecuencia tan abao di 0.34. Compare cu otro
anjanan, esaki ta un prestacion significant. E reduction di desgra-
cianan incapacitante, ta un meta cu vale la pena traha pe.
Pero lags nos no perde for di vista e obheto cumbre di Lago den
terreno di seguridad. E obheto aki necesariamente mester ta elimina-
cion di tur accident, tanto esnan serio como esnan menor. Tan tempo
cu ta secede un desgracia cu un empleado na trabao, ainda tin trabao
pa haci den terreno di seguridad na Lago. E ta un meta halto, casi in-
alcansable. Pero mas halto e meta, mas grand e premionan aunke e
obheto cumbre podiser semper ta keda algo for di alcance.
Tur desgracia, na un grado, ta penoso. Desgracianan menor por
causa inconveniencia temporario. Accidentenan serio por causa incon-
veniencia permanent. Ta e ultimo sorto di accident cu tin repercusion
asina extenso. Si un empleado worde incapacity den un accident, po-
diser el mester pasa door di un period largo di curamento y recupera-
cion promer cu el por cuminza traha. Durante e tempo aki el ta sufri
hopi dolor. Un incapacitacion resultando for di e desgracia por afecta
ganamento di e trahador den future. Esaki ta afecta directamente
miembronan di familiar.
E empleado no ta liber di desgracia incapacitante ora el sali for di
trabao. Leuw di tal! Tanto el y su familiar ta exponi diariamente na
peligronan na cas, ariba terreno di hunga y ariba camina. Aki e em-
pleado por pone su actitud y entrenamento di seguridad na bon uso.
No solamente un accident ta causa sufrimento, pero un desgracia na
un mama por causa pesadez pa e chikitonan. Si e ta un desgracia in-
capacitante, e efectonan por ta serio economicamente tambe. Si su
desgracia ta trece incapacitacion permanent, e efectonan por ta
desastroso.
No ta bastante pa papia seguridad, pa spierta esnan cu ta participa
den recreo y na cas di e peligronan cu ta existi. Pa protega tur hende,
empleadonan di Lago na trabao of na cas y miembronan di nan fami-
lia, nos mester accion di seguridad. Accidente no ta socede di nan mes.
Un acto di descuido, un actitud di sin percuracion of inatencion poi
causa eventonan inespera y tragico. Unda cu bo ta, trata cu seguridad.

Brings 190 Midshipmen To Aruba


A welcome respite from their seven-days-a-week
studies came for 190 midshipmen enrolled in the Massa-
chusetts Maritime Academy when their training ship,
"Bay State," made its annual cruise recently to Aruba.
Also on board the former World War II troop trans-
port were the twenty-one officers who help school the
midshipmen. Included in the officers' complement were
Rear Admiral J. W. Thompson, academy superintendent,
and Capt. R. T. Rounds, "Bay State" commander.
The vessel docked at Oranjestad Harbor the morning
of Jan. 25. Ahead for midshipmen, and officers, lay
four days of fun in Aruba's sun. It wasn't all play and
no work, though, as shore leave was alternated with
ship-board duties.
Following protocol, "Bay State" officers and the ad-
miral exchanged calls with the Savaneta Marine com-
mander and Lt. Gov. F. J. C. Beaujon. During their stay,
officers and midshipmen were given open invitations to

Acceptance to the academy is
conditional upon candidates passing
highly competitive examinations.
During their enrollment they must
adhere to rigid class structure, dis-
cipline and obedience that marks the
U S. Army and Navy military aca-
demies at West Point and Annapolis.
The Massachusetts Maritime Aca-
demy is one of the most highly rated
schools of its kind in the United
States. Founded in 1893 in Hyanni-
sport, the school was moved to Buz-
zards Bay to gain better mooring ac-
commodations. The midshipmen live
and attend classes on board ship. At
present there are no buildings or
grounds but appropriations are be-
ing considered to construct class
rooms and dormitories ashore.
The training ship was built in 1943
Sand was originally 440 feet long.
Forty feet of the stern have been
removed. This housed landing craft
and beaching gear, used in the ves-
sel's wartime role, which are not
needed for training.


Lush Aruba Foliage Ideal

For 1963 Lago Calendar Pics
Because last year's heavier-than-normal rainfall was mostly con-
centrated in the last three months of the year, the cunucu is ver-
dant, flowers are in fine blossom, tropical plants are lush with
heavy leaves and trees are full and shapely.
This means that employees and annuitants interested in compet-
ing in the Public Relations Department's 1963 employee calendar
picture contest should start shooting colored transparencies now
while Aruba is at its beautiful best.
Although it is much too early to set contest rules, they will follow
last year's basic requirements. Colored transparencies will be ac-
cepted from Lago employees and annuitants. Judges will select
twelve Aruba scenes to fill out next year's calendar. For each col-
ored transparency accepted, Fls. 100 will be paid. Contest rules and
deadline date for entries will be announced later.
This announcement is to prompt photographers to start filling
out their transparency files now so they'll have substantial scenes
to choose from. The number of scenes any one photographer can
submit is unlimited. Color film used can be any size.
