Keep Your Head
After An Accident
If you miss losing your head in
an auto accident, don’t lose it
afterward.
To keep you from becoming
panicky, and perhaps getting your
self into hot water, some bar
associations (notably those in
Wisconsin and Minnesota) have
issued pamphlets telling you how
to act. In essence, here’s what
the lawyers say you should do:
Stop . That is an absolute must
in case of an accident involving
personal injury or even slight
property damage.
Help the injured. Provide com
fort, but don’t move them. Call a
doctor or an ambulance as soon as
possible.
Set up warning signals. If the
accident happens at night, try to
warn approaching cars. Maybe
bystanders can be posted with
flashlights.
Exchange identification with
the other driver. Each has the
right to see the other’s driving
license.
Get names and addresses of
witnesses. Ask them, too, to
write down, on the spot, a brief
version of what they saw.
Take your own notes. And make
them specific. Diagram the loca
tion of cars, step off lengths of
skid marks, etc. Do it then and
there.
Keep your thoughts to your
self. Sure, you are excited, but
keep recriminations or self-ac
cusations stifled. Admit nothidg
and sign nothing.
Assist officers. Call the cops,
and, if possible, remain on the
scene until they arrive.
See a doctor. Even if you were
only shaken up, have an examina
tion as soon as possible. Some
thing may develop later.
Tell your insurance company.
Make a report promptly and pay
nothing before you get the com
pany’s advice.
Find out the law. State laws
vary on the kind of report you
must make and the circumstances
that make them mandatory. Find
out what is required. It may help
you to keep your driver’s license.

O NE of our lady readers can
figure better than we can.
Referring to our recent ad
on the immensity of a billion
dollars, she writes:
“You neglected to say that a
billion silver dollars would
weigh 31,250 tons, and that to
transport this money would re
quire six solid trains, each a
mile long and pulling 100 car»
containing a hundred tons each.
Nor did you say that to trans
port enough silver dollars to pay
the national debt would take a
convoy of such trains, spaced
a mile apart, reaching from
Myrtle Beach to San Francisco.
“I saw somewhere recently
that if a person had gone in
business at the birth of Christ
and lost $1,000 a day since that
date, he could still go for 788
more years before losing an en
tire billion -dollars. As for the
approximately 275 billions that
the national debt amounts to,
the person in question could
lose a quarter of a million dol
lars a day for slightly more
than 3,000 years before enter
ing the poorhouse.”
Thanks, lady, we are now
more than ever befuddled.

Killed In Korea
On Eve Of Return
Odell Caldwell, 22 year old pri

ment on duty in Korea was killed
in action on February 20 the War
Department has informed his par
ents, Sarah and James Caldwell
who live at 2330 Holloway street.
Private Caldwell’s parents had a
short time before the announce
ment of his de|ith received a let
ter telling them that he would
come home shortly under the op
eration of the rotation plan and
they had made welcoming plans
for his arrival.
Odell Caldwell was an exemplary
soldier. He had served in Korea
about a year at the time of his
death and had been cited for
bravery under fire on the front
liness. A student at Claaflin uni
versity, Orangeburg, when called
to the colors, Odell was preparing
himself for the practice of medi
cine. He had studied for two
terms at Claflin.
The mother of young Caldwell
has been employed in the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Floyd
for several years and she and
her husband have eight other chil
dren. Mrs. Floyd says that her
grief is pitiful.
Odell Caldwell is one of a num
ber of Newberry county Negro
boys who gave their lives in the
cause of freedom, and, perhaps to
a better understanding among
races.
