Highway Toll
May Be Halved
n Ten Years
Washington (Science Serv
ice) - A scientific attack on
the automobile accident prob
lem would reduce deaths and
serious injuries by one-hall
in ten years.
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.

Old Technique
Used on Lung
Disease Patients
Chicaffo (Science Service)-
Lives of persons with chronic
inns disease todav are beine
saved by an ancient surgical
technique that dates from the
dawn of modern medicine.
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.
