Each year, at the National Safety Congress, the ideas and experiences of many of the nation's top safety men are presented in the various sessions. Many* of these ideas, devices and methods, first presented at a Congress session, later become generally accepted within their fields In order to present this information conveniently and at sriaH cost, the Congress Transactions are published in volumes, one for each Section or Division, along with a Genera] Sessions and Detailed Index to all volumes. The 35 volumes of the 1933 Congress Trans' actions are listed on the last page of this volume. Safety directors everywhere have found the Congress Transactums a useful aid in their accident prevoitioo programs. In industry, for example, thdr judicious distribution to key personnel in ssusagemeil and supervision has proved to be ot invaluable service. Ia preparing these Transactions, the proceedings of the Congress hart been condensed and edited for reference purposes. Complete original manuscripts, with any* charts or illustrations which were used, art available in National Safety* Cotntcf] fires. Views expressed at the Congress or in this record are those of the Congress participants and arc not necessarily those of the National Safety Council.
