More than four thousand farm workers were killed the job, and another four thousand were! killed in motor vehicle accidents. One thousand more farm people J were killed in public accidents.' Farm deaths last year added up to 15,000, a needless toll of farm workers and members of farm households. These are some of the facts which were behind President Tru-| man's action proclaiming this week as National Farm Safety Week In add11. on to the farm fatali ties, 1.500.000 larm people were injured in accidents last year, and S90.000.0U0 worth of farm prop erty was destroyed by fire, the National Satety Council has esti mated. The presidential proclamation states that the president feels that because more accidents occur in agriculture than in any other oc cupation and accident hazards are increasing with the complexity of modern farm operations, a con certed effort on the part of all farm people is necessary to reduce the total of fatalities and injuries.
