First Attention in
Coming Safety

Mayor Mitchel's Safety Committee,
which was appointed recently, came in
for praise last night by Arthur Will
Jams, president of the American Mu-
scum Of Safety, at the annual meeting
of that institution in the United En-
gneering Building. Mr.. Williams told
just what that committees plan of
work would include, and said that an
effort would be made to lessen the ap-
pallng loss Of life on the highways.
He pointed out that roller skating on
the streets and the use of glaring
headlights on automobiles were two
dangerous practices which could be
regulated in the interest of public
safety, and encouraged night traffic
from terminals and storage plants and
in wholesale deliveries.
DR.. William II. Tolman, director OF
the museum, read letter from Presi-
dent Wilson, telling Of his attention TO
the safety campaign. In it he said
that "the conservation OF human life
through the prevention OF accidents
and the safeguarding of health en-
gagged his DEEPEST interest"

trial Accident Board. He told of the
influence exerted by the Museum of
Safety in other states and Joined Mr..
Williams in urging that such a build
ing be erected in this city on a plane
equal TO the Metropolitan Museum of
Art and the Museum of Natural His
tory.
He also told Of the working OF the
workmen's compensation law in his
state, and said that 90 per cent of the
money spent for industrial insurance
could be saved if half the accidents S
generally believed to be preventable-
could be done away with. In the last
year, he said, more than s2,299 800 has
been paid to workers or their depend
ants in Massachusetts,.
Many millions of dollars were rep
resented by the trustees Of the museum
and guests who were on the platform.
Those who occupied seats included
Mrs. L. II. Hartman, Mr.. and Mrs.
James Speyer. Mrs. Anthony y. Brady
and Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas F. Brady.
The eight medals awarded through
the museum were presented by Pro-
lessor Frederick r. Hutton, the vice
president. When Dennis Joseph Cas-
sin, the New York Central veteran, re-
ceived his, Mrs. Hartman, the donor,
crossed the platform and congratulated
him.
OF the eight medals presented, the
most picturesque award was the bronze

tend to other cities in the country, put
IT. working out the details it was found
that il was impracticable at TINS time
to bring this about, and so the matter
for the time being is deferred. The an
nouncement expressly states that the
"as you were" attitude in the ranks OF
the two forces does not mean warfare,
but implies that all Is peace and per-
feet amity. Bang goes another news
story.
Take this from no less a parsonage

NEW HOME FOR HOSPITAL
Beth Israel Plans Building to
Cost 100000.

Beth Israel Hospital is TO have new
home at IL Livingston Place. The an
nouncement was made last night at
meeting of the hospital association in
the synagogue of the Congregation
Kehillath Jeshurun, at 112 East Eighty
eighth Street. Ground has been &C
quired and the building is to cost
$l,000,000. -.
Abraham Rothstein, vice-president of
the association, read the report of the
treasurer, showing that s307,3 43 had
been obtained. The new building, which
is TO be twelve or fifteen stories IN
height, will have accomn odations not
only for charity patients and those who
can afford to pay we'll for attention,
but for those in moderate circum-
stances. Directors of the hospital have
found many applicants who do not wish
to be treated as public charges, but
who cannot afford the present hospital
rates without severe strain upon their
resources.
The annual report showed that A.
OF patients were treated during the
wear, 90 per cent being charity patients.
More than 100000 received aid at the
di5pensary. The death rate of 5h per
cent is the lowest in the history Of the
institution.
