Senator Cole said. “’I
500 deaths in 1903 to
cans realize the need for fireworks
controls. Let’s hope it doesn't take
another such disaster to prove the
need for strict enforcement.”
Pre-teenage boys Were the most
frequent victims of 1964 eye ac-
cidents from firecrackers, accord-
ing to the National Society survey
Seven of the 24 persons hurt were
boys between ten and twelve years,
of age. Five victims were girls, one
of them a four-year-old whose right
eye was seriously Injured by a
firecracker thrown by her father.
“Fireworks still blind and main-
lv because most people, though
they talk strict enforcement, won’t
follow through, ” Senator Cole
said. “The black market in fire-
works flourishes in most states be-
caqse parents decline to see to It
that bootleggers are proeecued,’’ he
declared. . . ‘
"If your child buys tome con-
traband firecrackers and you eon-
fiaeate-them. don’t count'yoitt'job
done unless you help authorities
locate the bootlegger. Fire preven-
tion and police officials must take
♦*»* lead In enforcing fireworks
lawt, but they require every as-
tMLance, ” the Texaa Society Of-
ficial said.
Check cloaely on the activities of
your youngsters during the Fourth
of July holiday, cautioned Senator
Cole, especially if they have shown
an interest in matches, ammuni-
tion. powder or rockets. Take the
family to a public display where
they can enjoy fireworks in safety.
