If safety is to keep pace with today's rapidly advancing technology, we must continually have "new approaches."
Farh year, at the National Safety Congress, the ideas and experiences of many of the nation's top safety men are presented in the various sefriff"*, Many of these ideas, devices and methods, first presented at a Congress session, later became generally accepted within their fields.
In order to presot this information conveniaxtly and at small cost, the Congress Transactions are published in volumes, one for cadi Section or Division, along with a General Sessions and Detailed Index to ah volumes. Tbe 34 volumes of the 1952 Congress Trans actions are listed on the last page of this volume.
Safety directors everywhere have found the Congress Transactions a useful aid in their accident prevention programs. In industry, for ^rampi.* their judicious distribution to key personnel in management and supervision has proved to be of invaluable sendee.
In preparing these Transactions, the proceedings of the Congress have mnHmtfrf and edited for reference purposes. Complete original
manuscripts, with any charts or illustrations which were used, are available in National Safety Council files. Views expressed at the Congress or in this record are those of the Congress participants and are not necessarily those of. the National Safety Council.
