Cooperation Sought in Home Accident Prevention Campaign
The Winchester Frederick Red Cross chapter plans an Accident Prevention drive this fall seeking household cooperation to cut home accident deaths. Andrew Bell says forms and inspections must reach all homes, with schools and groups helping. In 1936 home accidents killed 38 500 people and disabled 170 000. Falls and burns cause most fatalities. The program extends to farms with 18 000 occupational deaths, 4 500 in agriculture. Safeguard your home to prevent human suffering.
