Highways 140 Red Cross' Wayside First Aid Stations Already Establislxed at Traffic ‘Danger Points’ in State; Many More Planned As summer traffic thickens along New York highways, the problem of accidents grows more serious. Acci dents often occur many miles from a hospital, and at times -when it is diffl- cut to Obtain any skilled aid quickly. Throughout the State and the na tion, hoAvever, increasing attention is being given to the solution of this problem. In the past five years the American National Red Cross, in co operation with medical authorities and public-spirited groups and individ uals, has established 140 emer gency highway first aid stations in this State. These are usually located at more or less remote small-town fire stations, police barracks, gasoline service sta tions, wayside restaurants and in homes. They are located only where persons have been trained in first aid, and where there are telephones by which to summon doctors and ambulances or to con vey other messages relating to accidents. tion of passing motorists, it has been found that these reminders of emer gencies have themselves tended to re duce the number of accidents in the vicinity. Quick aid being vital, every highway station has a special directory -with. the telephone numbers of the nearest doctors and hospitals. At each station there must be at least two first-aiders ready for call, day and night. In the vicinity there are generally several other trained per sons who may be speedily summoned. Victims of acci dents in homes and places of business as well as on the highway are aided by these modern “good Samaritans,” whose work is en tirely voluntary and without pay. Re cently, for example, a boy in West- ©R. H. Stone Members of Cenferport, L. I., fire department's highway first aid station show “ how St's done” In annual first aid tournam ent of Huntington town ship. Above: A gas station attendant with Red Cross kit hurrying to give first aid. About 45 of these emergency sta tions in this State have been estab lished since last fall. In.addition there are some 58 mobile or vehicular first aid units plying the highways in cer tain sections. Meanwhile more stations and mobile units are being planned. In most cases the work is sponsored by- county Red Cross chapters. ' In its nation-wide life conservation work, now considered a major factor in reducing automobile accident fatali ties and traffic injuries, the Red Cross has about 3,000 wayside first aid sta tions. It has about an equal number of mobile units, most of them utility company trucks Avhose crews have been trained in first aid and who may be called on in emergencies. Evidence of the effective work done by Red Cross “first-aiders” Is found in a recent survey of 401 highway sta tions.' These had provided care for more than 8^000 persons, the victims of 2,700 accidents. \Where stations have been estab lished and well marked for the atten- Chester County was overcome by chlo rine gas. A doctor and an ambulance were summoned from a hospital sev eral miles away, and a call made to the first aid station in the nearby vil lage fire headquarters. The firemen, able to reach the boy the more quick ly, applied artificial respiration and used an inhalator, having him well on the way to recovery when medical aid arrived. In addition to the Organized forces thousands of persons in industry and homes have been trained in Red Cross first aid methods. In the past thirty years more than 212,000 persons have thus been trained in New York State. Among those who volunteer their ser vices in emergencies, wherever they may be, are a host of Bell telephone employees. In this State since 1921, when the New York Telephone Com pany began first aid training, some 24,000 of its employees have satisfac torily completed courses and received Red Cross certificates of proficiency, i Automobiles Studebaker Hudson Terraplane International Trucks F.
