DECLARED
AMERICAN RED CROSS TO CAR
RY ON VIGOROUS 12 MONTHS
CAMPAIGN
War to the finish has been de
clared by the American Red Cross
against accidental deaths. This
announcement was made today by
local Red Cross Chanter officials
who say that during the next 12
months the organization will inten
sify its First Aid and Life Saving
campaign to reduce the useless
waste of life by accidents both on
land and in the water.
With accidental deaths in the
United States averaging nearly 90,
000 a year and still mounting an
nually, officials are mustering their
jforces for a concerted drive. Not
j'ess than 80 percent of these deaths
lean be prevented, they say, by
j spreading knowledge of first aid
and life saving. A severed artery,
it is pointed out, will quickly bleed
a person to death; but the applica
tion' of a simple tourniquet will
save him. Likewise, a person may
stay unconscious in the water for a
considerable time, and while appar
ently drowned he may be revived
:by the prone pressure method of re
jsuscitation.
These two instances are said to
be typical of dozens of ways for
saving lives in emerrv'mcies bv ap
plying the knowledge of first aid
and life saving.
| Through its 3.50C chapters, one of
which is located in practicahy
every county, the Red Cross will of
fer thru the year instruction in
first aid and will train swimmers in
methods for recovering drownizg
persons from the water and reviv
ing them.
For the last 12 months the organ
jization has made special efforts *o
reach as many persons as possib e
and in that period more than 150.
000 in the LTnited States received
first aid training, while nearly 174,
000 persons are enrolled in its life
saving corps In this time the or
ganization also gave more than
4,000 lectures and demonstrations
for the furtherance of its campaign.
The new'' Fourth avenue bridge
was opened for traffic Saturday.
The bridge—a span—is an excell
ent piece of construction and was
built in a few days by the Warrack
i Construction Co..
Fred Patzole, suffering from in
ternal poisoning, passed away a
few days ago at Juneau.

Editor;
To settle an argument, who intro
duced the bill at the last Legisla
ture raising the workman’s com
pensation ?
Reader
Kennecott, Alaska
The bill in question was introduc
duced by Joseph H. Murray. In re
ply to a query as to the history of
the bill Mr. Murray said:
“The bill is House Bill No 67, in
troduced April 18. 1927, by myself.
The bill amended the Act of 1923,
which Act was drawn by Senator
Dimond and introduced in the Sen
ate by Senator Ayer. This Act of
1923 increased the schedule of com
pensation in injured workmen by 30
percent.
“The increased cost of things
naturally lowered the purchasing
power of the dollar; so in 1927 it
seemed that the compensation to
injured workmen was still too low.
I took up the subject with Tony
Dimond. with whom I had often
discussed workmen’s compensation,
and who was then in Juneali, and
he drew for me the Act of 1921,
about which inquiry is made. I

therefore introduced the bill and
in due time it passed.
| “During all the time of drawing
j the Act of 1925, and the working
out of the compensation schedules,
| it was our desire and intention to
j provide for a uniform increase of
50 percent increase for the sake of
safety The increase provided for
in 1927 completes what Foster,
Price, Staser. Dimond, Chamberlin
and myself tried to do in 1923.”
