Nearly *€4,000 men, women and children have died in traffic accidents since 1900, the association declared. The 1950 toll of more than 35,000 deaths, which reflects a strong upward trend In fatal accidents during the paat year, Indicates that the millionth rotor fatality will occur next December or early in January, 1952 Accident X" will not be reported as such, it was pointed out. Its victim, like the Unknown Soldier Just one of the month's statistics •will be "known but to God." The new unknown American, typifying a million lives lost in traffic^ In fifty years, may be a speeding or drinking driver, a woman shopper who tries jayValking, or a child at play in the street. Like the Unknown Soldier, "Victim X" will be a national symbol of sacrifice, because nearly all persons killed in traffic accidents lose their lives needlessly. If "Victim X" should become a lasting symbol of the constant need for -greater highway safety and thus spurs the entire nation into action that decreases traffic deaths and injuries, this new unknown American will save countless lives by )oslng his own and also will rest "in honored glory". Whether the htyendtag death of "Victim X" la postponed a month or six months, depends on how seriously every American who drives and walks accepts a personal responsibility in the 1951 home war front to reduce highway accidents. Every month's respite for the victim of "Accident X" /will mean a saving of about 3,000 lives. Aoident X Is Jurft around the corner. Its nearness should remind 'Us, every day this year, that antoitoobMee will kill another million people in the next thirty years Instead of fifty years, unless Americans come quickly and firmly safety-conscious Mid each one does his part in preventing traffic accidents. Every person who doesn't Is nominating himself to become Victim X, or the statistics of some other acldent that is just around the corner according to Jullen H. Harvey, manager of the association's accident prevention department. "The rapidly*, mounting accident rate shows that we are fast becoming a nation of habitual traffic gamblers," hp said. "Millions of drivers and pedestrians need a real session of soul-searching to tell themselves how often they are breaking the traffic rules that mean safety to glf. When millions of Americans stof> thiB gambling in traffic, the accident toll will drop rapidly." Mr. Harvey pointed out that nearly 7,000 lives were saved in 1938, after highway accidents had killed 39,643 persons in 1937--the second worst year in history for traffic deaths. An all-out national highway safety crusade could save 10,000 lives this year, postponing the death of ^Victim X" well Into 1952, the veteran safety expert observed. "I earnestly hope that the accidents happening every day this year will constantly remind every person who drives or walks that Accident X Is o^ its way," Mr. Harvey concluded, "and by learning the simple ways of safety-- and practicing them at all times-- will escape Becoming Its 'unknown' victim." wmmmm ""t 11 M"»i»I in i HI f t i t i i » n m u m n i m Living With Year Bio* •jf. • comparative or more :k of proper s some p&mtaui HW sAf& 'frdm worry about their condition than from the high htobd pressiflhe itself# , *.

Pressure _ ^ _ Every person has a blood pressure. It may be low, high or normal, varying in different individuals. As the heart beats, its largest vessel, the aorta, sends blood to all parts of the body by means of a chain of smaller and smaller arteries. Thus the pressure is ea-; tahliahed through the action of the heart when it oontracts for a moment and then relaxes, -according to a Health Talk of the Educational committee of the Illinois State Medical Society. When the blood has reached the Smallest microscopic vessels of the hody, which are tcalled Capillaries, the fundamental purposes of the circulation of the blood are being carried out, that is the supplying of oxygen, food stuffs and other necessary elements essential to the maintenance of the normal activities of the tissue cells. In aiddition, it carries off waste products, which are eliminated from the body by way of the lungs, kidneys, bowel and sweat glaiids. The return of the blood to the heart is made through another system of blood vessels known as veins. The greatest pressure of the blood in the large arteries which occurs during the contraction of the heart muscles, is known as the systolic blood pressure, and the lowest pressure which occurs in the large arteries during the relaxation or rest period of the heart is known as the diastolic pressure. Thus the blood pressure in every normal individual varies with each heart beat from a maximum as the systolic pressure, or contraction, to a minimum of the diastolic pressure. or with the heart rest. As one grows older, the pressures gradually increase, and in any given individual the blood pressure will vary from time to time, depending on tbe circumstances. Puring exercise, for example, when the heart pumps more rapidly and forcibly the blood pressure is increased. A similar rise will he noted during an emotional strain such as anger. Deviations from the ntfrmal pressure are low and high blood pressure, or hypertension. While the fundamental cause or causes of these deviations are not known, there seem to be many factors involved. Age, heridity and even sex must be considered in high blood pressure, since women are somewhat more affected than men, but the real solution is yet to be solved by medical research. In high blood pressure, the heart is working harder which may account for its gradually becoming less efficient. Then, too, the arteries are subjected to greater internal pressure which may result in a rupture, producing a cerebral or brain hemorrhage. In low blood pressure, or hypotension, the exact opposite is true. While the cause of high blood pressure Is not known, certain medical management and dietary control are beneficial to some individuals. In others, surgical treatment may help. High blood pressure is second in importance for making heart disease the major cause of death in the United States, and yet with proper medical management the condition need not be as serious as many people seem to think. Properly controlled, a person with high blood pressure may lead a m IN owt--m QooJu Go**** Hf Mark Schaettgenf hi |ta*«a* Fetoteee Packing sad marketing of potsloos under AM now U.». consumer grades recites mors caroful siring and cJootr sorting.

R. Kays, administrator of tbe Illinois Veterans Commission. A second dividend is to be paid automatically on this insurance in the near future, Kays said. He urged veterans who have not applied for the first dividend to see officers of the commission for full information. - STATE RBVEJTUE The state Director of Insurance has announced that all casualty companies writing auto fire Insurance in Illinois are subject to a tax, proceeds of which are used for maintaining the state Division of Fire Prevention. This tax previously has been collected only from fire insurance companies. This ruling is expected to bring $35,000 annual additional revenue to the state. Dairy Cow's Moots , Tbe average dairy cow needs 12 to 15 gallons of drinking water a day This Is the thl articles whtch tion from the der Atomic What Afcelrt 8ner Bombs? Do not be misled by loose talk of imaginary weapons a hundred or a thousand times 'as powerful. All cause destruction l|>y exactly the same means, yet one 20,000- ton bomb would not create nearly as much damage as 10*00 tWo-tpn bombs dropped a little distance apart. This is because the larger bombs "waste" too much power near the center of the explosion. From the practical point of view, it doesn't matter whether a building near the center of the explosion is completely vaporised or whether It is simply knocked into a pile of rubble.£J To be more specific, a modern atomic bomb can do heavy damage to houses and buildings roughly two miles away. But doubling its power will extend the range of damage to only about two and onehalf miles. In the same * way, if there were a bomb 100 times as powerful, It would roach out only' a little more than four and onehalf, not 100 times as far. And remember: All these calculations of your chances of survival assume that you have absolutely no advance warning of the attack. Just like fire bombs and ordindamage by blast and boat. So first let's look at a few things you can do to escape these two dangers. Even if you have only a second's warning, there is one Important thing you can do to lessen your chances of injury by blast: Fall flat on your face. More than half of all wounds are the result of being bodily tossed about or being struck by falling and flying objects. If you lie down flat, you are least likely to be thrown about If you have time to pick a good spot, there is less ' hance of vonr being struck by flying glass and other things. If you are inside a building, the best place to flatten out is close against the cellar wail. If you haven't time to get down thefe, lie down along an inside wall, Or duck under a bed or table./ But don't pick a spot right opposite windows or you are almost sure to be pelted with shattered glass. If caught out-of-doors, either drop down alongside tbe base of a good substantial building--avoid flimsy, wooden ones likeiy to be blown over on top of you--or else jump in any handy ditch or gutter. When you fall flat to^ protect; yourself from a bombing, don^t ook up to see whit Is coming. Even during the daylight hours. 'til A- 're factng that way. To provout tt, bury your face In your arms and hold it there for ten or twelve seconds after the explosion. That will also help to keep flying glass and other things out of your eyes. the from a bursting r . . federal government s^to* tons'three-eighths ef an the land in Montana. la one «t 4im all time, not recorded died, they lived and have feen •cores of languugSS.
