CHICAGO, Sept. 25. CUP)-Death
claimed IL per cent more children
under five years Of age in l943 than
in 1912 accidents. the National Safe
ty Council announced in its 1914
edition on "AcciC ent Facts" despite
an l8 Per cent decrease in auto
mileage and additional scientific
life-Saving drugs available to doc
tors.
Neglect of children by 1943 Amer
leans at war was to blame accord
ing to Interpretation of the causes
of accidental ceathS among chill
dren who suffered the greatest
death rate rise in 1943 of all groups.
Burns were responsible for "a per
cent of the accidental deaths of
children under five. Automobile ac-
cidents constituted the third most
frequent cause for death and drown
ing the fourth.
Deaths of children in school were
up 5 per cent, and deaths in the
home rose 7 per cent. Nearly half
of the fatal accidents at home took
place in the yard or the kitchen,
while the playground or gymnas-
ium claimed the most at school,
Half of those on the playground
was attributed to "unorganized
play"
Traffic deaths, which lead the
nations fatalities for 20 years, fell
into second place in 1943, giving
falls the lead as the nations No l
cause of accidental deaths The
Ceath toll from falls was q 400 COM
pared to the % 400 traffic deaths.
Accidents killed more than $1,000
of Americas farm people. Farm
work accidents accounted for 4500
of the fatalities, and about 7500
farm residents were killed by acci-
dents in their homes.
The Safety Council pointed out
that an accident death occurred
every five and one-half minutes in
1913, and an injury every three
seconds.
Every 16 minutes someone Suf-
fered a fatal accident at home and
every six and one-half seconds
there was a non-fatal accident.

Holland Battles
Reveals Some
Strange Tactics
BY WALTER CRCNKITE

WITH U. S. AIRBORNE
TROOPS, Holland, Sept. %. De-
layedl battle of the
corridor CT Holland is one of the
Strangest and most daring engage
ments in history.
Never before. even in Civil War
days cavalry raids, has an army
ever thrust so deep into enemy ter
ritory along so narrow a ribbon.
The airborne troops pushed the
Germans aside far enough to per-
nit Northumberland Sir Miles
c. Dempsey'S column TO roll through
free of email arms fire. When they
can bring up big guns, however the
Germans can shell the road at al
most any point.
Apparently we'll organized, the
German panzers from the east are
making thrust after thrust at the
road while from the west the cor
ridor is under constant threat by
disorganized but desperate Germans
attempting to flee back into Ger
many.
We have not been free OF some
SORT of attack since Monday when
the Germans first appreciated
possible entrapment to all western
Holland.
They have attacked with tanks
twice from the east and with strong
infantry supported by heavy artil-
lery and twice from the west along
this stretch of the corridor this unit
holds.
These threats to the corridor, al
though they have temporarily sue
ceeded in cutting DempSey'S supply
column. are now Systematically pc
ing reduced by advance thanking
columns of British armor relieving
the paratroops.

International's ITS Pleasure and
it's a pleasure seeing little Sonia
back in grease paint again after a
years absence.
This time the writer's saveo them
selves a lot of headaches. They cast
Sonia as an ice skating star. After
six years of Hollywood stardom,
getting the little lady on and off
the ice and still sticking to the
story was quite a problem.
The authors of one of her movies,
you may recall, gave up in disgust.
After wrecking six typewriters and
losing a months sleep, they had
Rudy Vallee toss some paper snow
into the air. The camera did a
quick spin and there was Sonia
spinning with a chorus of $50 boys
and girls to the accompaniment of
a l00-piece orchestra. 1t didn't
make sense.

scene establishes La Henie as an

permit and skating on green ice.
She's married to an ice hockey star,

meet on ice. have their first kiss
on ice, are married on ice and live
happily ever after on ice.

goes around throwing paper snow

Its pleasure" Sonia said 1T
was getting so bad l figured it
would be only a matter of time be-
fore they would have me walking
into a cocktail bar, ordering a drink
and then skating on the ice cubes.
A recent dispatch from New York
said Sonia and her husband, Marine
Capt. Dan Topping, are planning to
purchase the New York Yankees
baseball team. Sonia wouldn't talk.
It's cookin'," was all she'd say.
Director william Setter was di-
recting Sonia in a scene in which
she receives a bouquet of flowers
from an admiring fan. She read
the note:
Roses are red,
"Violets are blue,
II love you"
But it came out "Wiolets." Direc-
tor Setter chuckled and chided
Sonia about her accent. Sonia
grinned right back and said: Il
speak better English than you do.
It's only because I've been working
SO hard 1t broke up the set.
Sonia has been working" hard.
She rehearsed her skating numbers
for three months. She's never sat-
isfied with herself. Neither is her
mother, who always sits on the side
lines when Sonia skates.
Sonia also dances in this picture.
With Don Loper as her partner. It
is the most elaborate dance routine
she's ever attempted on the screen.
