Avoid Accident Hazards

DO you remove hazards which
may cause accidents before damage
IS done? The results Of accidents
can be costly in many ways The
loss Of wages, cost Of medical and
hospital care can seriously effect
the financial status Of any family.
The untold amount Of suffering is
often needless. An ounce of eau
ton is the sensible solution.
Accidental mortality is rapidly
rising to a high position among the
leading causes of death. In Della
ware during 1949 it ranked fourth.
Home accidents were second to
those involving motor vehicles.
From go to 65 fatal home accidents
occur each year in Delaware. The
major causes are from fires and
falls.
CAUTION should always be the
WatchwOrd in the home. Never
nor leave matches or flame-making
leave young children home alone
devices within their reach. Teach
your children the danger of fire.
A slkiddy rug on a glossy floor or
a highly polished floor in itself is
an excellent set-up for accidental
falls, which may result in broken
bones with possibly more serious
complications. When climbing or
reaching in the home avoid a shaky
ladder or totteTing furniture. A fall
can be disastrous no matter how it
happens.
A life saved through avoiding an
accident is just as valuable as one
saved by any other means.

Fakes Attack
By the Associated Press

WINCHESTER, Va, July g.
Mr.. and Mrs. Leonard Caldwell,
both 26, went to a late movie
Wednesday night.
After the show Mr.. Caldwell
drove his wife home and then
went to work. He is a rookie
|patrolman on the Winchester
force.
The first assignment he and
another officer received was to &c
to his own home and investigate:
Some one had dialed the police
department and left the phone of
the hook.
Mr.. Caldwell found his young
wife bound and gagged. She said
Ia man was in the house when she
entered, had tied her hands and
legs and then attempted to Grim
Iinally assault her.
She said she just managed tc
get to the phone and dial.
Mrs. Caldwell was sent to the
Winchester Memorial Hospital fol
a checkup and dismissed.
Then Capt. F. M. Funk ano
Sergt. Warren Rudolph questioned
Mrs. Caldwell. Every time she
repeated her story it had a new
variation. The officers called these
discrepancies to her attention
She broke down and confessed hel
alarm was a complete hoax.
No one had attempted to assault
her, she said. She tied her owl
hands and legs, she admitted.
Why did she do it?
She wanted to scare" her huS'

Hits New Hiqh Of 605,900

Employment in the Washington

today.
About 1900 workers were added
to the Federal pay roll during the
month, and 1,700 to service indus
tries between May and 81. These
major increases, and others, were
offset partially by losses-mainly
in conStruction-to give the area
Ia net employment gain of 1000
over April.
Total employment here during
the month was COS 900, as COM
|pared to 604 300 in April and $751;
900 in May, 1850.
The Employment Service re-
ported at the same time that the
|areas Ii1anpower shortage still is
acute.
