More State Residents
Die In Their Homes

More DelaWareans died in home
accidents than in highway acci-
dents in the first two months of
this year.
The Delaware Safety Council
yesterday reported that home acci-
dents resulted in 21 deaths while
traffic accidents caused only IL
deaths.
j. II. Tyler Mcconnell, president
of the Council, said there were 10
home fatal accidents in January
and IL in February. In all of 1861
there were 35 fatal home ac-
cidents. Those in the first two
months of 1862 amount to almost
two-thirds of the total for the en-
tire year of 1861.
''It is time to stem the tide of
home accidents" Mcconnell said,
suggesting use of added precau-
tions. An analysis of the accidents
which have occurred this year in
dicate some of the hazards, he
said.
In 13 out of the Fl accidents,
the victims were persons over So
years of age. Twelve of the 13 died
as the result of falls or fires. Pre-
cautions should be taken in every
home to guard against avoidable
falls and to prevent fires, the safe
ty official said
Two of the fatal accidents were
unusual cases of smothering. One
victim was an infant whose breath
ing was obstructed while lying
face down on a plastic covered
sofa. The other was an elderly
person who collapsed face down
on soft carpet and respiration
was obstructed.
Another unusual fatal accident
was the case of q two-year old
child who choked to death while
trying to drink water
The other two fatalities were
caused by gunshot wound and
by carbon monoxide poisoning re-
sulting from an automobile start
ed in closed garage.
Mr.. Mcconnell also reported that
the survey of home accidents be.
ing conducted by the Council has
pointed to the danger of back in
juries stemming from efforts tc
lift sick or elderly persons who
need assistance. In most cases, ht
said, it is prudent for two persons
rather than one, to pick up OF
move another adult.
