other December weekends, the
council found that accident types
and people involved were much
the same as usual.
Other facts in the report are.
1. The most common type of
accident was collision between two
or more cars. Next in order were
non-collision, pedestrian and fixed
object collisions. In Delaware two
of the fatal accidents were COLI
sion, and in the other two cars
ran off the road.
In 80 per cent of the accidents
only one person was killed. The
most serious accident killed four
persons.
8. Rural accidents were fewer
than normal in relation to urban
accidents.
4. The ages of drivers was not
much different from the normal
pattern. Driver ages in the Christ
mas study ranged from 13 to 81.
Six were under 16, and six over
rs.
5. Males were driving in "a per
cent of the fatal accidents. only
slightly higher than the annual
average of 92 per cent.
6. Victims were about the same
ages as usual, too, with one-third
aged 25-44 and one-fourth 1924.
Almost four out of fibe victims
were males, and these were most
ly drivers.
z. The most common driver ac-
ton contributing to fatal acci-
dents was driving on wrong side
of road or in center of road. Fail
ure to observe a signal or stop
sign was second. In only four of
the fatal accidents was a mechan-
ical failure or tire blowout men,

8. Pedestrian victims were prin-
cipally older people, out of 10

That was the conclusion of the
National Safety Council and the
Delaware Safety Council after a
study of the details of accidents
that occurred during the Christ
mas Holidays.
In Delaware there was one fat
al accident a day from December
% through December 26. In two
of the four fatalities, the police
Investigations showed that drink
ing definitely was a factor. Speed
was a major factor in a third
fatal accident, and failure to OBJ
serve caution at an intersection
was involved in the fourth Della
ware fatality.
All four Delaware fatal acci-
dents occurred during the dark
hours. Nationally, rs per cent of
the accidents happened during the
dark hours. Nationally, more of
the accidents occurred between
6 pm. and 9 pm. than any other
three-hour period. In Delaware,
none occurred in that period, but
all four occurred between 10 pm.
and Ais am.
The National Safety Council said
that speed and drinking had an
effect during the Christmas week
end almost three times greater
than normal. Driving too fast for
conditions or in excess of the
speed limit was a factor in 81
per cent. Drinking drivers were
involved in 55 per cent of the
fatal mishaps, although normally
they are involved in less than &c

THE DETAILS

Mrs. B. LII would like my
husband to retire, so we could
get away from the problems OF
living in large city and the diff :
f1culties of the seasons. With all
our children married, 1 think we
could enjoy comfortable retire
ment, what with social security
and a substantial amount of
money we could get by selling
our home.
My husband will not hear of
retirement. He argues that we
would wind up in the poor house
because initiation would wipe out
the value of cur social social
security and our savings.

TO keep on as he is because 1 am
afraid it may shorten his years.

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Be Sympathetic to Sufferers
By DR.. PETER J sTEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I know
you get many letters with prob
lens like mine. was very sick
last year and my family had a
great deal of worry, and most
of all, my husband. He was at
my bedside daily and tried to
help me in every way.
I had three operations and
with faith I came through. Now
I am at home and trying to get
well; I find it really hard. I lost
so per cent of my blood. I had
10 transfusions and medicine to
help me.
I know every husband likes
to have a well and strong wife
But in my case, my husband
thinks I am well enough to
carry on as I used to. In addi-
ton I have osteoarthritis and
spondylitiS which tire me out
I can't carry on my duties as
used to.
When my husband comes
home from work and doesn't
find things as he did when ]
was well, he says: What have
you been doing all day? You
have so much time and you
don't do a thing" My answer
is: Il am trying"
Thinks She's Pretending
To him it looks like / am pre-
tending to be sick. In the mean
while my blood pressure goes up
and my strength feels washed
out. What can you suggest in
my case. I always read your
columns. I am now so years old
and I don't want to worry too
much; and / don't want to worry
my husband and children. I hope
you can write about my problem
in your column. Mrs. A. M.

FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

RUMORS: Willy fight mana
ger Jack KearnS has never failed
to take advantage of the breaks.
Back in the 20s, when he was
managing middleweight Mickey
Walker. the two went to London
for a bout with the British con-
tender.
Shortly after their arrival,
word got about that Walker was
boozing in night clubs, instead
of tending to his training.
Walker, who took his fighting
seriously, was incensed. He
threatened to invade the news
paper offices and demand that
the rumors be scotched.
To Kearns, however, the
rumors represented a golden OPP
portunity, as the odds on the
fight were certain to improve.
He encouraged the rumors and
added a few embellishments of
his own.
Steadily, he Increased his bets,
until by the night of the fight, he
had wagered everything he
owned. When Walker won by
a knockout in the tenth round,
he cleaned up a fortune.

understood by her or his imme-
date family. I have had patients
tell me the actual pain, discom-
fort and anxiety provoked by
their disease was as nothing to
lack Of sympathy and patience
of a husband, wife or children.
, I recalled one man who had
severe angina. Even shaving
produced chest pain. One day
his wife asked him to hang a
few pictures. He told her he
couldn't lift his arms without
getting excruciating pain. She
had been told he was a sick man
but she had never really believed
him or his doctor. She kept say
ing he was exaggerating because
he looked healthy"
Tries to Help
She insisted he hang the pic
lures; that he was only being
lazy. Tired of hearing recrimina-
lions and abuse he got a ladder
and tried to help. He fell dead
trying to drive a tack. His much
to-be-pitied wife lived out the
rest of her life in self-accusa-
ton. II never realized he was
so SICK" she said. why didn't
somebody tell me? Why didn't
I believe him? I've killed my
husband"
I remember a husband who
was sure his wife was lazy. Not
until she became invalided did
he realize that neither she nor
her doctor had exaggerated her
case.
1t is we'll to remember that
most persons are not com
planners by choice" If a member
of your family says he is i'll,
better give him or her the benefit
of any doubts you may have.
You may carry around a heavy
"guilt-complex" for the rest of
your life for having withheld
comfort from your father.
