~ HALLENGED by the Grim
Reaper who stalks American
~ highways, claiming thousands
Of automobile accident VIC
Tins annually, the American Red
Gross Is establishing Nationwide
chain Of roadside first-aid stations to
give immediate care to injured mo-
toristS.
In the last II months highway ac-
cidents claimed more than $4,000 lives,
injured more than a million and q
quarter persons and permanently
crippled 10000.
This is an emergency which faces
every community in America" de-
clared Admiral Cary T. Grayson,
chairman of the American Red Cross,
and steps must be taken to prevent
and minimize the effects of such acci-
dents if our splendid highways are to
cease to be lanes of horror.
'"The Federal Government is con-
cerning itself and State and munich
pal police are all conscious of the
too-apparent gravity of the situation.
Already action has been taken through
the enactment of hcense-driver laws,
the enforcement Of traffic regulations
and educational measures. Public
concern is expressed by the press,
whose members, great and small, are
constantly waging campaigns against
reckless driving.
But in spite of this general awak-
ening to the seriousness of Americas
highway accident problem and the
beneficial effect which the efforts Of
the aforementioned agencies un-
doubtedly will have, highway acci-
numbers for some years to come, and
there must be more definite provision
made for emergency care Of those in
1ured.
"rTHE Red Cross has accepted this
responsibility because it believes
that 1t is in the best position of any
organization to do the Job. With more
than q quarter Of century of first-aid
experience behind it. the Red Cross
realizes that many of the lives lost as
the result of highway accidents might
have been saved If intelligent help had
been available on the scene of the
emergency.
"Our organization is able to under
take this huge project because Of its
more than 12,700 chapters and
branches, reaching into every State
and virtually every county of the Ma
ton, with whose cooperation sites can
be selected, personnel trained and
constant supervision be maintained
over q large number of stations.
ITO perform this service the Red
Cross has established in the last sew
eral months more than 200 highway
hrst-aid stations along important
routes of travel as a beginning Of a
chain which will eventually include
some $4,000 roadside first-aid sta
tions."
Prominent physicians in many parts
of the country who have become ac-
cuainted with the highway first-aid
program are enthusiastic in Its sup
port.
Or. Robert H. Kennedy, surgical di-
rector of the Beekman Street Hos
pital-which has one of the largest
opportunities of treating injuries of
any hospital in New York City-said,
IN q recent address:
when an accident occurs and some
one Is hurt, 1t Is a natural human
impulse to try to do something to
help. The great majority of these
accidents occur upon stretches of road
remote from immediate medical care.
About the only thing an unframed
person present can think to do is to
