Authorities on safety are finding
important parallels between present
day efforts to stop traffic casualties
and the accident problem which
ij faced industry a quarter century ago.
W! It is history that in tne Desin
Hining, management was reluctant to
support the industrial safety move
ment on any but humanitarian
grounds. Executives feared that the
acceptance of safety standards and
procedures, the use of machine
guards and other such devices would
slow up production. For industry,
this reasonii.Ti has long since gone
into discard.
Oddly enough, however, a large
part of society seems to hold the same
fatalistic attitude toward the traf-
Ijfic accident problem. Speaking on
! the subject recently, Albert W. Whit
i ney, who is in charge of safety ac
j tivities for the National Bureau of
Casualty and Surety Underwriters.
! struck sharply at the validity of such
beliefs in a modern world,
j "This reasoning and this psychol
ogy are utterly wrong," Mr. Whitney
said. "Accidents are certainly not
' a price we must pay either for in-
i dustrial progress or for the use of
the automobile. Far from slowing up
production, safety actually quickens
it by increasing efficiency. It is com
mon knowledge today that the causes
which produce industrial accidents
are also the causes of inefficiency
in production. Industry knows that
a high accident frequency is a symp
tom of waste.
"What happened in the industrial
field will happen with the automo
bile. Not only can we solve the traffic
problem, but in so doing we shall
very largely solve the traffic effi
ciency problem. Communities that
are cutting down their accidents suc
cessfully are just those communities
that are moving their traffic more
quickly and more easily."
If America can come to realize
that by controlling traffic deaths
and injuries it can likewise control
traffic economy, the incentive to doj
both should not be lacking, lore
and more we realize that the causes
which produce traffic accidents also
cause us to speed more than is neces
sary for gasoline, oil, tires, upkeep
and insurance, delay us in reaching
our business and social destinations
and generally slow up the progress
of a motorized world. Such reason
ing appeals both to the heart and
the pocketbook, an irresistible com
bination. '

SCIENCE MAKES NEW FINES
Memphis. Cobra venom was re

societies for experimental biology
here. It reduces the tremors in
"shaking palsy." More than 1,000
scientists meeting in eleven different
simultaneous sessions listened to re-!
ports of this and several other'
startling discoveries. One of them!
shows the hand receives orders from j
the brain six-thousandths of a'sec-j

but suggested possibilities for disccv-!
