Wilbur Suchard pushes safety drives to cut factory accidents

Last year 679 local workers suffered lost time due to accidents, with carelessness responsible for about three quarters. A cleanliness campaign at Lititz is highlighted along with February comparisons to 1986. A cautionary anecdote on quick decision making follows, plus a plant-wide clean-up contest results and notes on cocoa consumption in 1936. Birthday mentions close the item.
