CHICAGO— (Special) —“Make Safety Your Number One Crop,” the slogan of several million rural boys and girls throughout the nation since its introduction in 1945, continues to be fostered by more than 615,000 4-H Club members. They are taking part in the 1954 National 4-H Safety Pro gram being conducted in 46 states for the tenth consecutive year. Participants receive training in farm accident and fire prevention, which includes checking and re moving hazards of every conceiv able nature. These surveys are credited by safety experts as being a valua ble contribution to the nation wide campaign to reduce the tragic annual toll of 15,000 lives and 1,225,000 disabling injuries to farm folk. In conducting their surveys, the 4-H’ers look for such safety hazards as loose or floppy cloth ing worn about moving farm ma chinery, cluttered stairways, oily rags, frayed electric cords, broken ladder rungs and sharp tools. What is becoming an increas ingly serious problem is that ac cidents to farm people caused by motor vehicles now account for nearly one-fourth of all deaths and injuries that occur on rural highways. Also, 700 of the fatal farm accidents reported last year involved wheel tractors. One-third of the fatal tractor accidents re ported involve persons under 20 years of age. One case in ten was a child under 5. To help correct this problem, the 4-H’ers are giving highway safety demonstrations before farm groups and over local radio stations, as well as putting win dow' displays in town stores and booths at county fairs. The 1954 National 4-H Safety Program is conducted by the Co operative Extension Service. As incentives for outstanding records in the program, General Motors provides medals of honor which are presented to four county win ners, and an all-expense trip to the National 4-H Club Congress in Chicago to the state winner. Eight of the latter will be se lected as national winners, each receiving a $300.00 college scholarship.
