BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN TO BE SORRY Washington, D. C.?The Fourth of I July week ( nd will he even more hazardous than invfn^ious years because of increased congestion on the highways and at resort and recreational centers resulting in parr from National Defense activities, it was pointed out "By Harold F. Enlows, director of First Aid, Water Safety and Accident Prevention of the American lied Cross. Traffic death figures for the first three months of 1941 released by the National Safety Council, reveal that if the present rate continues, the total for this year will surpass 40.000 deuths?an all-time high. Highway fatalities last year totaled 34,000? an increase of seven per cent over tlie total for 1939. Deaths from drowning ieach year average approximately '7.000. The vacationist must not only seel to his own safety, but must anticipate tiie carelessness of others, Mr. Enlows warned. The mistake of one motorist may result in fatality to those who may he obeying all the rules of the road. This year's list of accidental deaths and injuries will he largely the result of carelessness and ignorance. For a safe Fourth, Mr. Enlows offers the I following suggestions: To motorist: (Set an early -tart for , | the holiday week-end trip to get i ahead of the congestion at.d allow TAcyai? v>1 time. Make a thorough check-up of your j , tires. brakes, lights and steering j I gear, for many accidents are the re-' j suit of faulty equipment. Keep an eye on the "other fel- | low." who may cause the accident, j lie sure luggage piled in the back j of the car does not obscure rear; vision. j Sacrifice that last hour at the beach ' and leave for home before the crowd. J Remember that driving after dark is many times more hazardous and after-dark accidents are frequently more serious. To swimmers: Enjoy your water sports at patrolled beaches. Rear in mind that expert swimmers can be drowned from cramps caused by swimming too soon after eating. BETTER NUTRITION FOR DEFENSE AND PROGRESS Ch mson, June 14?About one-third of the people oU thd United Stutes suffer from lack of proper diet, and many of the remaining two-thirds, while they are well and work, do not have the buoyant health nor optimum efficiency that would be possible with better food habits", Director D. W. Watkins of the Extension Service said here today discussing "Nutrition, Defense, and Progress". , Director Watklne, chairman of the State Nutrition Committee, pointed out that our farm people, following mainly a cash crop system of farming. are specially exposed to the ills of poor nutrition. "This is bad", he declares, "from every point of view: Personal efficiency is lowered, the community suffers, and national defense is Imperiled to the extent that farm people do not haVe the right foods. ( "When there is a surplus of the chief cash crops of South Carolina, cotton and tobacco, then food becomes scarcer than ever and the ills of undernourishment follow to an extent greater than in regions where surplus cash crops are edible when prices are low. Only the cash received for cotton and tobacco is available to buy needed foods not produced on the farm.? these two crops themselves not being edible.. "All this creates a situation wherein the oulv hope for the great majority of farm tamllies In feoutJi Carolina to ever have the right diet for vigorous health and efficiency is to plan ahead and produce most of it on the far m. "This nfeans pastures, Irrigated gardens, syrup patches, wheat, oats, barley, summer forage, poultry, hogs, and cattle. It means approaching all these things not in a haphazard manner but after careful consideration of the soil, its treatment and care, varieties-of crops and kinds of livestock most suitable, and above all expert handling of all details to forestall failure. "Success with any farm enterprise especially the production of an adequate food supply is not an accident but the result of careful study, plan-. ning, nnd work. The farm owner has a double responsibility in that his croppers and tenants must be led and influenced gradually to do for themselves what is necessary in food production. This basic change in farm-: iug would improve the stamina, vigor, effective intelligence, and stability of the people generally."
