July 25—tl'nited Press) — Seven times as many American motorists are killed in grade crossing accidents each year as are killed in Great Britain, according to a bulletin issued by Charles H. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor Club. The American casualty list is five times that of France, he said. “True, we have more automobiles, more miles of highway, and more . grade crossings, but the figures are I based on the number of accidents com- ' pared to the number of registered motor cars,” Hayes said, “On this basis one motorist out of every 9,000 in the United States lost I his life in a grade crossing smash: in I France It was one out of every 45.000 ’ and in Great Btitain one out of every 65,000.” Os the 232.755 grade crossing in the United States used by motorists, only 27,161 have protection, leaving 205,593 unguarded, he continued. o — .

infants Car. Id Hot Weather | “Summer has been called the l"' r |] gatorv ot motherhood because moth-ji ers are more apt to have trouble with , the health of their children during the hot season than during the cooler pel- ] iods of the year”, says this weeks ( | tin issued by the Pnblici-y Bur- , eau of the Indiana Medical Associa- , tlon. i "Health statistics have shown thatji the majority of deaths among every (( young children take place during, the warm months of the year. | "This Is true because some children are so frail at birth that the slightest , change in feeding them throws their j weak organs out of balance, often with fatal results. Most children, however, are born with healthy bodies and if care dfor properly, will pass this time of danger easily. "The great cause of high death rates among babies is the lack of knowledge, on the part of the persons entrustedwith the care of children. It matters] not how poor the parents of a child may be, if they will but use proper precautions and care in feeding they can usually bring their children through this period of danger in safety. “The chief cause of sickness and deatli among infants is improper food Probably 25 per cent of the deaths of children under one year of age may be traced to intestinal diseases. The possibility of food becoming unfit for use is greater in the warm months because at this time the chance for infection from disease germs is greater. “If the child does not retain its, food and shows continued signs of distress, it is well to consult your phy- ( sician. “The best food for babies, of course is mother s milk. The greater number of children who die every summer are those who have not been fed in this way. It' a mother is able to nurse her child satisfactorily, it is her duty to do so. Many mothers give up nursing their babies too easily.

No baby under cne year of age should be weaned during the hot months of summer if weaning can possibily be avoided. Eveiy day that the baby receives its nourishment from its mother adds much to his chance of survival. “A nursing mother should never take any drug without the advice cf a physician. Alcohol in any form should never be taken by the nursing mother. It used to be a common practice for mothers to take malt liquors to stimulate the flow of milk While under proper medical supervision the use of malt drinks might have some slight value as a temporary measure, the safest rnlo has always been to avoid all alcoholic beverages. Good results may sometimes be secured by taking an increased amount of fluids in the form of cocoa, beet tea. buttermilk or pure o Women Drivers To Take Part In Speed Boat Races Wawasee, Ind., July 25—(INS)—Women drivers at the wheels of some of the fastest speed boats on the northern Indiana lakes will feature the day regatta July 30 and 31 under the auspices of the Wawasee Yacht Club, according to the announcement of the sponsors of the races.

Every Week Safety Week during the last two years drivers of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) vehicles crossed more than 88,000,000 railroad crossings without a single fatality. That record is the result of continuous concentrated work. The safety campaign of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana: has been steady and persistent—carried on day after day and week after week and year after year. By means of unceasing effort and the splendid cooperation of all employes, the impressive safety record of this company has been accomplished. The driver of every Standard Oil Company Indiana) vehicle is conscious of his own tremendous personal responsibility. This realization of the responsibility involved is a necessary part of safety education. As motorists and pedestrians are made conscious that safety is their own daily responsibility, accidents will be reduced. The situation is more serious than the average person realizes. Twenty-two thousand people are killed and 660.000 injured annually by automobiles, according to the News Tribune of Duluth. The quotation below is from an editorial of this paper for May 9th. "There is still an imperative need of more systematic study of the means of preventing or gradually reducing automobile accidents. It has been shown that only a small percentage of the accidents which happen are due to defects in the cars or can rightly be called unavoidable. For that .reason the situation js not hopeless nor incapable of control. ‘‘But it requires vigorous and effective work throughout the entire country and the cooperation of all drivers and all pedestrians, and all factors of our national life, including schools, civic and public organizations, parents and children.” . I he Duluth News Tribune has vividly presented the safety problem that confronts this country and has made a sensible suggestion for its solution. Each week during safety week automobile acci,f nts are far less numerous in the United States than they are during any other week of the year, according to the report of the National Safety Council. „ 9 1 * 8 s h°"' 3 what can be done by making people salety conscious.” Every week must be made safety week. The cooperation of “all factors of our national life” must be enlisted. Industry can help. The conspicuous success of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) employes in keeping safety rules is P°t surprising, considering the fact that even- day • in their business they are trained to think of others. This company is pledged to the promotion of satety by the very character of its organization. ~Thi s < £! npany ex ' sts to serve the people of the Middle Vest, and its jetive part in the humanitarian effort to reduce unnecessary loss of life is in accord with the spirit of the organization.
