Reporting of Accidents Can Aid Prevention LINCOLNA rural commun ity must have facts about acci dents happening in the locality if they are to conduct an effec tive accident - prevention pro gram. What can accident reporting do? 1. It focuses attention on types of accidents occurlng with great est frequency; 2. It pinpoints types of acci dents resulting in greatest loss of life, serious Injuries and prop erty damage; 3. It points up conditions sur rounding accidents; 4. It gives opportunity to eval uate intelligently means of eli minating hazards and accident causes; 5. It allows farm safety groups the advantage of applying avail able resources for accident pre vention and education where they'd be most effective; 8. It can be basis for sound, legitimate legislation and en forcement to protect farm fam ilies from needless accidents; 7. Nationwide statistics offer intelligent basis to do nationally what's attempted locally. To this end, farm safety spe cialists at the National Institute for Farm Safety, In cooperation with the National Safety Coun cil, have developed an accident reporting booklet. This booklet defines the three types of accident reporting, and also offers a reporting form and summary sheets which hope fully will be the basis for uni form accident reporting nation ally. Single copies of the booklet are available free from the Farm Department, National Safety Council, 425 Michigan Ave., Chicago, 111. euests of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Coooer. evening guests were Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Cooper, Ricky, Debbie, Sheri, and Kit.

They arc blaming the seniority system or the way Congress is organizeu for the lack of action on the Ad ministration program.

They refuse to admit that the people are becoming concern ed about what this generation is doing, about the tremendous debts we are leaving for our children and grandchildren to face. I think the people are pret ty well satisfied with Congress, and I don t believe they will be fooled by these calls for reform or radical change in procedures. There are of course some changes which would allow us to complete our work quicker and more economically. These changes will come about be cause they are common sense. But I don't look for any drastic reorganization of Congress just to please these so-called liberals who want to push through their pet programs which do not have popular support. I don't think the people are fooled by these people whe claim Congress Is outmoded. Congress is still the man on the street's voice in Washington.
