That's the estimate of the National Safety Council of the number of deaths that will occur during the four-day holiday weekend from traffic, drowing, fireworks, falls, over-exposure to sun and other accidents.

It's based on what Americans have done in past years over such holidays, taking into account the accident trend this year.

He had built house trailers before the war and intended to go on building them.

Put In Prewar Savings "When I saw the plight of most returning vets, tramping the streets day after day without finding a place to live," Ferring said, "I decided that many of them could be helped if trailers were produced in quantity." To accomplish his purpose, however, the former sailor needed capital. He had $8,000 of his own, saved from his prewar business. But he needed more.
