THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

HEAVY HOLIDAY TOLLEXPECTED Doctors, Nurses Prepare for July 4 Mishaps. 'if United Press WASHINGTON, June 29.—Doctors, nurses, hospitals and dispensaries throughout the country are preparing for the usual rush of Fourth of July accident cases. At this season of the year the death and sickness rate is generally at its lowest, but the celebrations on Independence Day will bring the number of patients far up. Many casualties already have been reported. The total number will not be known until some days after the Fourth, for lockjaw, which takes a big toll each year, does not develop under twenty-four hours and may not develop before several days. In the last few years an enormous increase in the number of motor accidents is shown after each holiday, particularly this midsummer one, when a reckless spirit of celebration is added to the presence on the roads of large numbers of Inexperienced drivers. Accidental drownlngs are another of the Fourth of July perils. Unprotected bathing beaches are a source of danger; so are boats, unless handled by experienced persons.
