Non-fata! ‘accidents are being stud: ied, too, because the “cause factors” are the same except that the eutcome was more fortunste, explained Walter J. Brophy, state safety engineer. “We are attempting to compile date on what time of the day the accident occurred, the exact location on the highway, and road visibility condi- tions,” he sald. “The stete highway patrol does the investigation work, mainly.” List 99 Fatalities Already the department, using pri- marily the system of the national safety council in tabulating its infor- mation, has listed 101 fatalities oh the highway this year compared with 115 by this date in 1936. This is in addi- tion to many non-fatal accidents, Among fatalities Brophy has not included are the deaths of two men fatally injured last year who died this year and a child killed in a garage, the latter being classified as a “home accident,” he said. “In general only those* accidents which occur on the public highways and streets are included in our count,” he continued, “traffic accidents oc- curring on @ farm, in a factory, or in a private yard are industrial, agricul- tural, home accidents, even though they occur by motor vehicle.” Weather Reduces Accidents Warmer more favorable weather this month undoubtedly accounts for reduction in auto deaths for Novem- ber, Boch | said, adding eight per- crashes in November, 1936, a ny three in the first 15 days of the month this year. What can be done to bring about a general reduction? Brophy suggests clear center strip- ing on roads, uniformity in road signs, wider roads, fewer sharp curves or hills, elimination of visibility obstruc- tions and grade crossing ellmination —it all takes time. He also pointed to teaching of high- safety in the schools for building generation of safer drivers, more | cautious pedestrians together with the |” modernization of highway design as part of long term safety planning.

DISCOVERY OF ONE CANCER CAUSE MADE Is Secretions Given Off by In- jured Body Cells; Have No Cure, Doctor Emphasizes Washington, Nov. 17.—(@)—A prom- ising outlook for the dairy industry was reported to President Roosevelt Tuesday by Secretary Wallace.

Cheese imports totaled 65,604,000 pounds, or 10 per cent of domestic production. He cited a “pronounced recovery” in the demand for fluid milk, cream, and ice cream in connection with an up- ‘ward trend in the per capita consump- tion of milk and cream in cities and villages. Cincinnati, Nov. 17.—( Tracing ten years of experiments, Dr. George Sperti, internationally-known stien- tist and director of the Institutum Divi Thomse, published Monday in the institution’s journal results of new researches showing that a direct cause of cancer lies in secretions given off by injured body cells. “Quite definitely, we have no cure for cancer,” said Dr. Sperti. Dr. Sperti modestly credited the find to two members of his staff, Dr. John R. Loofbourow and Sister Ce- cilia Marie Dwyer, S. C. Dr. Loofbourow asserted the secre- tions given off by injured cells had been found to stimulate cell prolifer- ation such as occurs in healing and that “cancer resembles an over-en- thusiastically healing injury.” DOG WARNS OF FIRE Minneapolis, Nov. 17.—(#)— The * barking of a dog led late Tuesday 10 Schilling discovery of a basement fire at the | | Tea Aas more ELEBRATIONS call for something special.
