Many answers to that question are given every year by those who participate in the various sessions of the National Safety Congress. Many new methods, devices, and ideas which later became generally accepted first were presented at a Congress session. Because of this fact, safety directors throughout the nation have always found the Transactions of the Congress a valuable tool in their accident prevention programs. Publication of the Transactions in small volumes--one for each Section or Division--permits .vide distribution of pertinent portions of the Congress material to man agement and supervisory personnel at small cost. The 34 volumes of the 1950 Congress Transactions are listed on the last page. Distribution of these volumes to key personnel is suggested as a valuable aid in the safety program. In preparing these Transactions the proceedings of the Congress have been condensed 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 not necessarily those of the National Safety Council. t Yoi , Chair all tii | dons 1 j -Y.S.C I Safety > cinnat: ' Mem] He .

The conduct of these Congress sessions each year is only one of the many cooperative activities which the Railroad Section carries on in behalf of its members, and for the benefit of accident prevention work in the railroad industry generally. The Section gives guidance in the preparation of a great variety of technical and educational material useful in the day-to-day safety programs of railroads. The activities of the Section are under the direction of its Executive Committee, the members of which are listed at the close of this volume. I ` It : - reetii . Section | 3ailr<.
