According to the National Safety Council bulletin
Americas accidental death toll reached a total Of
$4,000 lives in 1880. It Is the highest figure for any one
year on record. There has been a steady increase each
year since 1921. Three billion dollars is a modest esti-
mate Of the economic cost OF a year Of accidents In
the United States and the sum represents direct cost
only. Motor vehicle toll was $4,000 lives. Another all
time high record. Home fatalities ran a close second
with approximately 10000 deaths. Automobile fatality
rate has increased 500 per cent since 1913 whereas the
death rate for other accidents shows more than a 80
per cent decline. Thirty per cent Of the motor driv-
ers involved in fatalities were under IS years OF age.
And get this:
~NINETY-FOUR PER K OF DRIVERS IN
vOLVED IN Fatal WERE MALES.
OFT CRITICIZED WOMAN DRIVER BEING
INVOLVED IN ONLY SIX PER CENT OF II
DEATHS.
Speeding was a factor In 10 per cent OF the injuries
and 10 per cent OF the fatalities. In at least one state
more pedestrians were reported drunk than motorists
In addition to the death toll there were some 2,5O0,-
600 ~non-fatal injuries and the direct cost OF accidents
to industry were about $3.50. Large industrial
plants are making by far the greatest strides in cut
ting down accidental injuries and deaths.

Mayor Cermak Holds the Fort

Mayor Antony J. Cermak Of Chicago faced 1000
striking city employees who deserted their jobs because
a walking delegate said that Cermak had discharged
500 union men and replaced them with political sup
porters. Mayor Cermak refused to bulge. He blunt'y
told the strikers that the man who said he had hired
non-union workers was bald-faced liar and the truth
was not In him. This settled the controversy. The 1000
who had walked out. reconsidered- and then walked in
again. A man with a backbone is needed in high exc
cutive place. A Eyes" man never made an efficient
executive. It is the man who has the courage to say
mo-, when no is necessary, that makes a high level

After All, Tnere's More To New

Hardly Deserves the Paving Over
That Authors Give IL
NEW YORK-Only In recent
years has Broadway been so paw
ed over by So many writing gents.
1t has been cheered. jeered and
feared; 1t has been laughed at, wept
over and interpreted in every lang
uage, including Arabic: each cor
ner has been peered into and 1t
has been called by more tricky
names than a new brand OF cigar
that had offered $4,000 for the
best trade mark.
I'm not certain IL deserved all
this. After all, there Is consida r.
ably more TO New York than

that all its %frequenterS grabbed

Now the tales Of Bercovici are
stories or the foreign neighborhoods:
they are OF the coffee houses of the
East Side and they are OF the
fiddlers in little Hungarian cafes;
they are of the ways OF the Arme-
mans and Turks in the downtown
belt and of the old Spanish dwell
lers in the mid Chelsea belt.
There is music and color in these
stories. and a quality Of drama
