Red Cross First Aid
Popular in America
AS Accidents Gain

The rapidly mounting toll from
trafic accidents has brought home to
the public the necessity Of being pre-
pared to render prompt assistance
while awaiting the doctor. During the
past year $50 chapters Of the Amer1-
can Red Cross were instructtng
classes in First Aid, and in the same
period certificates were issued to
2O,6O1 persons qualified by Red Cross
experts.
Many cities throughout the United
States are showing interest in secur-
ing first aid instruction for their po-
ice and FIRE department personnel,
and through the work Of local chap
ters, practical results have been OBJ
tanned in such cities as Washington,
D c.; Toledo, o.; Boston, Mass;
South Bend and Indianapolis, Ind;
Port Arthur, Texas, and other commu-
mites. In cooperation with the State
authorities, intensive training in first
aid and rescue methods has been
given to State police and consta bulary
members at four State training
schools.
Instruction In these subjects in
public and private schools, colleges
and universities has increased during
the year. Attention has been given to
training teachers at institutes and
summer schools.
The Red Cross hrst aid railroad car
has been in continuous operation
throughout the year. 1t covered
10,S4O miles, visiting 1877 cities, where
LOO meetings were conducted by the
surgeons. with q total Of 1887
people.
Industries particularly have aVailed
themselves of the instruction Afforded
by the Red Cross. The Western Elec-
tric Company, for example, reports a
reduction Of the accident rate per
