IGHTNING RODS tOTECTION FOR FARM BUILDINGS II Ml „ No building is safer from light- FAMILYSEES Dj AT WORK IN t>HOTO EXHIBIT ; Mom and the children, wtio rarely get to see daddy on the job, are being given this opportunity by the Chicago Historical society. As the society museum at North avenue and dark street opened its "Chicago At Wo'Ht" photographic exhibit recently. Paul M. Angle, society director, said the new exhibit contains 400 enlarged photographs of Chicagoans on the job. The photographs, submitted by industrial, business and institutional organizations throughout Chicagoland, depict hundreds of vocations. , Angle said the exhibit, which continues through September in the society's portrait gallery, was prompted by a statement of Leverett Lyon, chief executive officer of the Chicago Association of Commerce, who said recently: "Chicago has advanced through the honest work, the steady industry and the vocational skill of millions of men and women of a score of nationalities to whom no accolade v but- the name of > 'worker' has ever been applied." r j The exhibit, depicting and saluting the workers of Chicago, ; will go into the society's permanent files and will be extremely , valuable in the future. Angle | said. j More than 1,000 photogranhs were submitted by industry, hospitals baulks, railroads, steel mills and scores of other diversified in-! dustries and institutions. The photographs have been enlarged J to 14" by 17" with 30 of the 4001 selected for the exhibit blown up I to 2' by 3'. A group of the workers shown' in the photographs will visit the opening of the exhibit Sunday, afternoon with their families asj guests of the society. | The Chicago Historical society in Lincoln Park is open to the Farm Scrap Iron and Steel Will Help Our Defenli Etfdrt "Have you turned your farm scrap into cash? Move it out of 'the fields now. Take a load to town and sell it on your next trip. It is needed to make steel for the •defense program. It is a vital material and must not be allowed to waste away." Many farmers have responded to that appeal recently, says the Committee on Iron and Steel Scrap, American Iron and Steel Institute. Those farmers have made a little money and gained space in their fields. The scrap is being put to use instead of being abandoned to rust and ruin. But more farm scrap is needed. Steel output can't be increased without a big supply of scrap. With winter coming on, when scrap is more difficult to find, the situation is truly critical. More scrap must be obtained from farms in order to make more steel. Old tools, wornout parts of tractors, trucks, cultivators and other implements; broken and discarded pieces of metal and other scrap should be taken to town and sold right away to the local scrap dealer. Every pound of scrap which comes back to steel mills helps to make two pounds of new steel, on the average. If the scrap is unusually bulky, preventing its easy transportation by the farmer, the scrap dealer can be called or the local farm agent can be asked to work out an arrangement. "Farms are one of the big sources of scrap," says the Committee. "Never have farmers had a greater stake in the nation's steel output." Harvest your iron and steel scrap right away. Turn it into cash. Do your part to aid the defense program. Traffic FakiHtias Decrfhs hi All W The nation's military deaths in all wars Since 1775 had reached a total of about 1,006,800 at the end of two years of war in Korea, where approximately 19,350 American combat deaths have occurred since the invasion of South Korea, on June 25, 1950, the Association of Casualty and Surety companies has estimated. The association's continuing comparative study of war and traffic deaths showed, however, that the total of highway fatalities since the first automobile accident victim was killed in Neiw York City fifty-two years and nine months ago is now far ahead of the all-time war total. Since February, when the total of lives lost in highway accidents equalled .military fatalities for the first time, the historic toll of nineteen. On American highways, however, the average number of deaths has risen from 99 to 102 a day, during the war's second year, according to the study made by the association's accident prevention department. When the Korean war started, the military death tofl since 1775 totaled about &86.250, while automobile accidents had claimed approximately 944,999 lives up to June 25, 1950. "GI-X," the 1,000,- 000th American soldier to die in the nation's wars, fell on a Korean battlefield last Sept. 3 or 4, according to the association. Three and a half months later "Victim X," America"s 1,000,- 000th traffic fatality was killed on Dec. 22, three days before Christmas.

This is more than 100 times greater than the increase of 600 in the number of American lives lost in Korean fighting while the truce talks were being held; at Panmunjom during the same period. With the automobile now far outpacing war as a mass killer of Americans, the association; said, there is little likelihood that j military casualties will ever overovertake highway fatalities in the grim race between the two killers, unless military forces were to be destroyed wholesale in any future fighting. Already the traffic accident toll's lead equals the total of nearly 13,000 combat deaths in the first year of the Korean war, when the average was thirtythree soldiers killed every day against ninety-nine automobile deaths daily on U. S. highwaysr Owing to the comparative lull in the fighting in Korea while truce negotiations continued throughout most of the second voir of the war, the daily av -~lge of combat deaths since last June 25 has dropped from thirty-three to Helene Jewett Brewer, for many years assistant treasurer of the McHenry County Title company, retired from the .company on June 30. Mrs. Brewer is the daughter of E. C. Jewett who was one of the founders of a predecessor company, the Richards, Jewett Sc Wright Abstract Company. Upon her retirement, the Company presented Mrs. Brewer with an engraved watch as a memento | of the occasion. She is the first ' -employee to be retired under the provisions of the retirement plan adopted by the Company on Jan. 1, 1961. Mrs. Brewer says, she now plans to "just take it easy" and , enjoy her family and friends.
