‘F. S. A. Reports Successful Group Medical Care Plan in. 25 Staten
By Science Service
PITTSBURGH, Pa. Oct. 19. oe, ‘Medical care plans with which both physicians and families participating are well pleased,-on the whole, ‘have been worked out and put into operation in 25 states by the Farm Security Association, its chief medical officer, Dr. R. C. Williams, of
ported today to the American Public Health ‘Association. The FSA medical care program. is based on the finding that “a family in good health was a better credit risk than a’ family in bad health.” The familiés participat- - ing in the program are those “nearrelief families” to whom the FSA has loaned money to enable them to continue farming and make a ‘living. The farm families with incomes up to $300 a year obtain medical aid by the pre-payment of $15 to $30 a year into a pooled fund. A bonded trustee is in charge of the pooled fund, and he pays all physicians’ bills ‘for the group as fully as funds will allow on a monthly, pro rata basis. This is the plan followed in most = communities. ~ There are a few variations, chiefly to meet local conditions. The families can go to -any doctor they choose who is participating in the
plan Most of the plans include the following benefits: Ordinary medical

Life- Saving Scalpel
By Science Service rt PHILADELPHIA, Pa; oct. 10— A life-saving instrument that surgeons may take to war with them
js attracting attention at the American College of Surgeons here. Soldiers or other patients. in such desperate shape from a bullet wound of the abdomen, for example, that they cannot be operated on may be saved by this new instrument. Called a peritoneoscope, it gives the surgeon in effect an-eye at the end of his knife. It is a long slender instrument, carrying a telescope and tiny electric light at-its end and is equipped with a forceps for ‘grasping a ‘piece of bullet or piece of “shell: or clamping shut a bleeding artery.’ The instrument can be passed through ‘the bullet wound or a stab wound made by a knife, saving the need of cutting open the abdomen, an operation which might prove fatal to desper-
care, including diagnosis and treat-

2 PEDESTRIANS “DRUNKENNESS. | TRAFFIC PERIL]
~ Tipsy. Drivers, Safety _ Council Told.
. .ATLANTIC CITY, N. J,, Oct. 19:—
share of condemnation for ‘traffic
that there are more -drunken pedestrians involved in traffic. accidents than there are _ . drunken drivers. This new conclusion was refiorted to the National Safety. Council here today by: its special committee, which for three years has ‘been studying the pedestrian problem. Drunken pedestrians are involved in 13 per cent of the accidents reported. volved in only 9 per cent.
Control Helps Pedestrians
Traffic control for the pedestrian definitely helps decrease deaths, said Leslie J. Sorenson, chairman of the committee and city traffic engineer of Chicago. In cities of over 500,000 population the percentage of pedestrian fatalities to total traffic deaths is 74 per cent in cities where there is no con-
trol, whereas with control the figure
drops to 65 per cent.
uncontrolled in his right to walk anywhere, must be protected, the committee agrees. . The greatest increase: in traffic accidents in the winter months—40 per cent in northern :states and 20 per cent in southern states—is not simply due to slippery pavements and poor visibility, a special committee on winter driving reported. “The average raotorist is a fair weather driver,” the report said. “He has not the proper respect for Mother Nature when the going gets tough.” He asks too much of nonskid tires, chains and abrasives and
‘too little of his own care and com-
mon sense.” - Wreck Scenes Photographed
Speeds of more than 20 miles an hour on icy pavements, even with chains, were disapproved. Insurance companies are now using miniature cameras to photograph scenes of accidents and to

check up on accident-prone truck drivers, Thomas T. Grimsdale, fleet engineer of the Travelers Insurance Co., reported. “Use of the camera,” Mr. Grimsdale said, “in observation reports on various drivers has been most valuable in reducing accidents. The driver cannot deny the fact that he has made a serious mistake when he is shown a photograph of his own truck driving on the wrong side of the highway.”
