Falling rocks and dropped tools represented an obvious danger during the excavation phase. Workmen claimed the "right to bear tools," whether they were needed or not. After ordering 144,000 wrenches, Crowe explained: "Gentlemen, I want a freight car load of crescent wrenches, for until every man on the job gets one under his bed, one in his automobile, and one in his hip pocket, I can't get any work done."46 Safety miners inspected the tunnels after a blast and, if loose rock remained, they sent in scalers with ladders and pry bars to smooth the curved surface. |
