Each day 500,000 persons are un- able to go to work, go to school or pursue their usual activities as the result of injuries caused hy accidents resulting from multiple sources, the public health service announced. Accidents In Home The service disclosed that 7 per cent of the deaths among 740,000 families canvassed were the result of accidental injury. Accidental deaths were exceeded only by mort- alities from diseases of the heart, cancer and pneumonia. It was revealed that sixteen of every 1,000 persons are disabled ror |a week or longer by injuries each year. Maiming injuries occur most fre- quently in the course of work, the |report - states, since 70 per cent | of the lost fingers and 46 per cent lof the loss of other members are | attributed to occupational caual- ties.

Boys and men aré more liable to suffer accidental injury than are girls and women until ti age lgroup above sixty-five years is reached. The situation is then re- versed Falls Top Causes The greatest single source of ac- cidental injury is the fall, which is credited with 39 per cent of all the serious disabling factors. Falis e even a greater menace at pres- ent than wutomobiles, which are responsible for 20 per cent of the nation’s year accident toll However, the automobile 1s re- sponsible for the greatest number of accidental fatilities. Persons in- jured in an automobile are two and one-half times as likely to die as persons injured by any other mearfs, The report associates the higher rate of accidents in the homes of the very poor with inadequate hous. ing facilities. Faulty stairways, poor ghting and heating conditions and rickety furniture are all factors.
