Dr. Irwin D. J. Bross. chief of the department of statistics, Roswell Park Memorial Insti tute, Buffalo, N. Y., said this was a realistic target. ' ' fc-mphasizing the need for cooperation of auto mobile m a n u facturers, legislators, a w enforcement agencies. safety groups, scientists and the general public, Dr. Bross said, "If the Dublic realized! how close we are to a major reduction in the highway toll, the cooperation would be forthcoming." First Step The first step in attacking the problem is the collection of detailed scientific reports on accident circumstances and resulting injuries of persons involved in highway acci dents, Dr. Bross said. He cited the Cornell Automotive crash injury research program as one that provided adequate information for a genuine sci entific study of the accident injury problem. After establishing the chain of events leading up to an ac cident, Dr. Bross advised pre ventive measures. These in clude car design changes, commonly called "hardware." Better door locks are still needed because the "modified door locks" that were success-' ful in laboratories have been only about 25 per cent better in holding doors shut in roll over accidents. Top Support Weakened Dr. Bross said one reason for the slight improvement was that the hard-top-styling ' trend, which came in about the same time as the modified door locks, weakened the top support and permitted great er deformation of the frame in a roll-over,- Getting rid of pointed ob- ; jects, projections, sharp bends in Instrument panels and oth- er hazards in the car interior would constitute what Dr. Bross calls a "delethalizatlon" programTN . Dr Bross reported here in thecurrent public health re ports that highway, design and traffic control devices also provide promising preventive measures. TO TOP ALU!

Drs. L. B. Teeimer and Morton Lee Pearce and Joe Yamashita of the University of California school of medi- nine T,n An eel ph. and Veter ans Administration center, de scribe the use 01 an artuiciai opening In the windpipe (tra- cheotomv) in treatment of acute pulmonary insufficiency in chronic lung disease. Their findings are reported here In ' thp American Medical associa tion's Archives of Internal Medicine (June). ' The first tracheotomy is thought to have been perform-, ed in about 124 B.C. by the Greeks, the physicians said. Since that time the proceaurt has been used nrimarlly in cases of obstruction of the windpipe (trachea). , ' Procedure Useful Ts Los Aneeles nhysicians have found the procedure use ful in treating an increasing number of acute pulmonary insufficiency complications of the chronic lung disease, em physema. The artificial opening is es notinllv useful in BSDlration of material the patient is un- able to cough up. 11 me pa tient's difficulty is severe enough to warrant use of an iron lung, the tracheotomy is , mandatory, they reported. ' The sumlcal procedure tc - make the opening is a minor one. Healing of the opening is rapid once the opening no longer needed and the minor scar that occurs pre sents no problem.
