i» Indianapolis, Oct. 7.— A procla--4 mation designating October 3 to 9 as Fire Prevention Week was issued today by Governor M. Clifford Townsend. Fire departments, fire chiefs, schools and civic clubs were urged to “promote measures of public and private fire protection, extend instruction in fire prevention and arouse the people generally to the need for habits of greater care.” The proclamation called attention to the fact that “almost all

WPA WOMEN MAKE CLOTHES FOR CHILDREN Sewing Projects Now In 80 Indiana Towns i . Indianapolis, October 7. —Approximately 2,400 women employed on Works Progress Administration sewing projects in eighty Indiana cities and towns at present are concentrating on making wearing apparel for distribution to needy children, John K. Jennings, state WPA administrator, has announced. Demands for children’s clothing are heaviest now because of the opening of school, he said. Within the next thirty days, according to the administrator, an adequate supply of children’s garments will have been made' and work on adult winter clothingl will get under way. The projects! are sponsored by township trustees' and ’all articles made are distributed through their offices. Six months ago more than 5,000 women were employed on state WPA sewing projects. Efficiency of the workers, consolidation of the projects within ceyunties, and general improvement in business anti industrial conditions have been responsible for a fifty per- 1 cent reauction in .the number of employes, the state official said. Children’s garments now being turned out on the projects include dresses, shirts, underwear, trousers, helmets, slips and bloomers. Need for children’s clothing now is greatest among cities and counties affected by the recent Ohio river flood and in southwestern counties including Parke, Vermillion, Gibson, Warrick, Monroe, Lawrence, Knox, Pike, Greene and Sullivan. Garments for winter distribution to adults will include trousers, shirts, underwear, dresses, night clothing, skirts and blouses. | Sheets, pillow slips and towels also are made on the projects. |
State Bureau Offers 1
Death:Reducing Plan
Indianapolis, Oct. 7. A thigee-i point program to reduce maternal; deaths in Indiana was outlined to-1 day by the State Bureaus of Ma-i ternal and Child Health and Public | Health Nursing. The two divisions of the State Board of Health are working in cooperation with the sub-commit-tee on maternal health of the Indiana Medical Association on the 'program. One point calls for the broadening of the educational program of the Health Board by wider distribution of literature, health ex_
fires are caused by human carelessness or improper construction or maintenance, and are preventable.” Clem Smith, State Fire Marshal, said many Indiana cities and towns were planning to hold inspections during the week in addition to educational programs. “The individual citizen can greatly aid the fire departments by becoming conscious of fire hazards and eliminating them in his own property,” Mr. Smith said.
author of the Declaration of Independence and our third president, says: “Confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism. Free government is founded in jealousy and not in eonfifjence which prescribes limited Constitutions to bind down those we are obliged to trust with power. . , . Our Constitution has accordingly fixed the limits to which and no further our confidence may go. “In ,questions of power then,” concludes Jefferson, “let no more be heard of confidence in man but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” Copyright 1937 by Max Berns
Students In State i Get Federal Aid'j Total of $29,760 Is Allocated'! for Indiana College Assistance ! | Indianapolis, Oct. 7. —Monthly s wages amounting to $-9,760 are, to be paid to needy college stu- | dent? in Indiana throughout the ’ school year through the facilities L of the National Youth Administra-, tion, it was announced here today by Robert S; Richey, state NYA director. Thirty-eight Indiana colleges have received monthly quotas sufficient to provide work for 1984 students, at sls a mouth. In many schools, however, officials arrange the distribution so that more students may be employed at smaller wages. Schools’ quotas are based on eight per cent of the combined enrollment of graduate and under-graduate students un- ' der 25 years of age in October, 1936. Graduate aid as a special, subdivision of the NYA college aid ; program has been eliminated this . year. Separate allotments have I been made to states in the past, ;! and separate quotas established J for students pursuing graduate studios, with monthly payments averaging $25. This year gradui ate students are to be paid from the same funds as undergraduate students. To be eligible for assistance, . students must be between sixteen ; and twenty-four years of age. , They are required to submit evid--1 ence of their inability to con- ‘ tinue their studies without such assistance, to carry at least threequarters of a normal course of i study, and to maintain satisfact-' ory grades. They may work a maximum of thirty hours a week. The projects' on which the stu- ’ dents are employed are designed' ' and supervised by school officials. | i They include clerical work, li-| brary and departmental service, j ■ construction of apparatus, models and equipment, research work, and laboratory assistance. Community projects, in which the students lead recreation groups, conduct nursery schools, or provide punch room service <to public ■ schools, are being operated in' | many college communities.
I hibits, motion pictures and quali- ' tied speakers on maternity probI lems. J The second phase, now under j consideration, proposed an extensive study of mortality and morbidity rates of maternity cases in Indiana. The third abjective is the placement of specialized maternity nurses in selected counties. They will assist physicians of the county medical societies in a home delivery service and prenatal and postnatal care of mothers. Such a demonstration already has been established in Allen County. Funds will soon be available for other demonstration and offers will be made to counties with a high maternal death rate. The Health Board stated, “Various studies of maternal and child health reveal that the maternal ’ death rate is still high in spire of 1 modern scientific knowledge, and ■'that there is a close relationship ibetween the death rate of mothers' land infants and prenatal super- * vision. Where the prenatal super- ’ vision is inadequate, the death ■ rate is nigh. “Health workers have done so 1 well in convincing communities of 3 the benefits of school health work, ■ that it is now the duty to be just 3 as convincing in teaching the people that health work should begin long before the school period. Englishman Invented Kilt The Scottish kilt was the idea os an Englishman, Thomas Rawlinses, (1728). “The whole modern trend in safety work is toward prevention—prevention of traffic accidents, fires and all types of accidents. “We feel that Fire Prevention W’eek serves a good public purpose by calling attention to the . need for greater caution. Thousands of dollars and scores of lives could be saved annually if just a little more attention was paid bj the individual citizen to fire prevention.” The Fire Marshal’s office is providing speakers and motion picture films for use throughout the state during Fire Prevention Week.
