More Killed
By Accidents
Than By War

Accidents on the home front took
a far greater toll of American man.
power in 1912 than did the Axis
powers on the battlefronts, accord
ing to the Montana Highway Traf-
fic Advisory Committee. Accident
prevention is one way you can help
win the war, if you can't join the
armed forces.
There were nearly $4,000 fatal
accidents in the United States in
1912. according to preliminary fig
ures compiled by the National Safe
ty Council and published in pub
lie Safety" This. includes 27,80O
killed in traffic accidents, 1880 in
lother public accidents, $4,000 in the
home and 1880 in occupational ac-
cidents. These fatalities on the
home front were about nine times as
many as the number killed in ac-
ton, and about one-third greater
than the total casualties of all types
in the war. A recently published
summary showed l0.145 American
soldiers, sailors and marines killed
10,895 wounded, 38,026 missing anc
6,132 taken prisoners in the frs
IA months sof the war
To win a war, it is just as inn
portant to conserve your own man
power as to inflict casualties on the
enemy. ManpoWer must be con-
served wherever possible, both or
the battlefield and on the home
front. A loss of $4,000 killed anc
many hundred thousands. injured ir
accidents is a serious drain on the
nations manpoWer The figures
emphasize the need for practicinf
and preaching safety, driving care
fully, walking carefully, and being
alert for hazards in the home, a
work, or wherever you are.
Although the 1912 traffic fatal
ties were $4,000 less than the 1896
all-time high in 194l, losing 27,80'
persons, of whom 1850 were work
ers, in preventable accidents is
calamity. Traffic accidents alst
brought approximately one million
non fatal injuries, of which abou
10000 left some permanent dis
ability. Direct economic losses arr
estimated at $1,500,000, includ
ing wage losses, medical expense
overhead costs of insurance, ant
motor vehicle property damage.
Montana traffic fatalities in 1874
were 101, according to prellminar.

Patrol. The 1941 total was 1874.

WORLDS LARGEST MEDICAL
JOR"

Under the above caption the story
of the Red Cross blood donor prof.
ect is told in the March copy of the
Red Cross Courier. Following the
last war research workers discov-
cred that blood plasma-the liquid
part of blood after taking out the
red and white corpusles-Was an
ideal blood substitute because it
eliminated the need of matching or
tipping blood for the victim. AS a
result, in February 1941, at the re-
quest of the surgeons general OF
the Army and Navy, the Red Cross
Blood Donor Service was inaug-
urated. Under the terms of the
agreement, the Red Cross at its own
expense establishes, maintains and
operates blood donor centers and
mobile units out Of the centers, OBJ
tains volunteer blood donations; and
ships the blood to laboratories deS-
ignated by the Army and Navy.
The entire cost of this is borne by
the American Red Cross and the
chapters participating, except in GER
tain instances where, in view of the
shortage of doctors, the Army and
Navy have assigned doctors to the
centers to supplement the medi-
cal Stats employed by the Red
Cross. All technical aspects of the
service are under the direction OF
the National Research Council, and
the responsibility of the Red Cross
ends with the arrival of the blood at
the laboratories in good condition. :
The Army and Navy carry on
from there, processing the blood
into plasma and serums and own
and distribute them where needed
Anyone interested in reading more

others similar may find information

Record of "Firsts'
Late in January, Mr.. Roosevelt re-
turned to this country from his his
tory-making trip to the Casablanca
conference with Churchill-a jour-
ney that took him to French Moroc-
CO, Liberia, Brazil and Trinidad
and added two more 'firsts" to his
record as a precedent-making chief
executive. He flew both to and from
Casablanca to become the first
president ever to fly to foreign soil
in time of war.
In April, Mr.. Roosevelt met with
Avila Camacho at the government
palace in Monterrey as the high
light of a 7,652-mole wartime in
spection trip through 20 states and
Mexico.
No "Acting President
During the periods when Mr..
Roosevelt has been on foreign soil
there has been no acting presi-
dent" The Constitution provides
only that the powers and duties OF
the presidency shall devolve on the
vice president in case of removal,
death, resignation or inability of
the president to perform his duties
and powers. Absence from the
country never has been held legally
to constitute an inability so there
was no necessity for delegation of
powers to Vice President Henry A.
Wallace.
