FOUR INJURED IN
 AUTOMOBILE CRASH People Badly Cut Up When Car Goes Through Fence in E. Berlin HAILED FROM NEW BRITAIN
First Meeting of Berlin School Board Miss Helen Carter and BunliaIn Williams to Be Married Oct. 24.- Triangles Win---Otllcr Items.

Four people were cut up, one of them seriously, when seven passen. ger Studebaker touring car yesterday afternoon about o'clock, crashed through fence on the East Berlin flats and stopped about 100 feet over in the lot.
 The car was driven by Manuella Barbo1e of 45 Cherry sereet, New Britain. Those injured were Jack 9Rever of 4 Lilac street, New Britain, badly cut about the mouth; Mrs. Jack Rever, cuts and bruises; Maggie Spinola, 33 Cherry street. New Brit ain, cuts.
 According to the story told by the police, the car was on it's way to Mid- dletown and just before leaving the stretch of concrete road on the way to East Berlin, the driver attempted fto pass out two cars. In some un- known way he lost control of the car and it plunged off the road and through a ribbon wire fence, finally stopping in field. The windshield and top were completely torn from the car and the radiator cap was also taken off the wire. The steering wheel was also taken off. /
 Seven people were in the car and it is thought that if some of them had not ducked, the wire would have done more damage.
 State Policeman Lavan was on the scene soon after the accident and is- ,iAued a summons for Barboze to ap- pear in the Berlin town court on Wednesday evening.
 The injured people were taken to the home of Dr. T. C. Hodgson in Berlin. where their hurts were at- tended to-, several stitches being necessary to close up some of the cuts.

Philippine Epidemic
Stopped by Workers

Manila, Oct. L ca. T. by MALI
Eradication of all dangerous epidem-
les in the Philippine Islands, organi-
cation of an efficient commissioned
| personnel, and survey Of malaria
and hoolkworm infested areas prelim-
mary to campaigns carried out with
the cooperation of the Rockefeller
Foundation, were the outstanding
achievements of the insular health
service during last year, according to
the annual report Of the director OF
health.
Invaluable knowledge - to the ex-
tent of malaria and hookWorm was
made available for health workers
through the survey of conditions In
several portions of the islands in
itiated by the Rockefeller Founda-
ton, the report says, thus making 1t
much easier for the service to draft
plans for combating the two diseases
The general birth rate during 1922
increased, while the death rate be-
came lower. The better showing is
attributed to the general improve
ments in sanitary conditions in most
parts of the islands.
With reference to the anti-typhoid
and smallpox vaccinations which are
being given by health officers from
time to time, il is declared that from
the results obtained, there is evidence
that immunity from typhoid and
smallpox on the part of large num-
Der of the people during 1922 was due
to NEGOTIATIONS.

Americans Live Longer
Due To Hospital Acts

Milwaukee, Oct. % CA. P.)-People
| or the United States and Canada are
living longer because of means en-
ployed by hospitals to promote
health, according to Asa S. Bacon of
Chicago, president of the American
; Hospital Association, who opened the
twenty fifth annual conference of
hospital executives, trustees and
| nurses here today.
Mr.. Bacon said that the thousands
OF people who pass through hospitals
during year become messengers of
good health in their respective homes
and communities, and thus spread the
good work of the institutions.
Hospitals make public health SER
vice possible and reduce the death
rate in cities and towns" he continu-
ed. without the hospitals physi-
clans could not possibly make the
great advances which are being re-
corded in medical science. Because Of
this steady advance Of medical
science, and the efficiency of hospi-
tails, the average stay of patients in
hospitals is IS days less than it was
% years ago when this associa ton
was started.
AT that time the cost of caring for
sick person was about the same as
that of caring for a well person plus
the physicians fees. Gradually the
advance made in medical science
called for the installation of labora-
tories with expensive equipment and
high salaried persons in charge to aid
the physicians in their work. Occu-
pat1onal therapy, social service, diet
etics and other specialties were also
added as departments of the hospi-
tails to increase efficiency and de-
crease suffering.
The high cost of running modern
hospitals on the one hand and the
limited financial resources of many
whom we serve on the other, compels
US to look to charitably- minded per-
sons in the community for help to
finance the work. Every generation
amasses more wealth than it needs,
therefore it is a benefit to humanity
that men and women bestow their
wealth upon standardized hospitals
of proved efficiency. 1t behooves us
to keep the work Of our institutions
before such charitable persons to the
end that health may be promoted and
life be saved
One OF the features Of the confer
ence this year will be the enlarged
educational exhibition covering two
acres in7 the Milwaukee auditorium
where scientific instruments and hos
pltal equipment will be displayed.
