HERSHEY NEWS Vol. 2 o HERSHEY, PENNSYLVANIA, MARCH 11, 1954 No. 10 National Safety Award Won By Chocolate Corp. "Congratulations . . . The heartiest and very special congratulations of the directors and staff of the National Safety Council on your fine safety performance—truly a job well done." That paragraph heads a letter to the Hershey Chocolate Corporation from Ned H. Dearborn, president of the National Safety Council, announcing that the Chocolate Corporation is to be presented with the Council's Award of Merit for its excellent safety record during the year 1953. The Safety Council's letter was received here by A. B. Snavely, chief safety engineer of the corporation. Snavely, in turn, paid tribute to the personnel of the organization whose co-operation made the achieve-ment possible. The safety award was made under the Council's Plan for Recognizing Good Industrial Safety Records. The Award of Merit "is presented only in recognition of noteworthy safety achievement" by in-dustries in the United States, according to the National Safety Council. Any Council member can qualifyw "if its record is good enough; but the requirements are high." The award to the Chocolate Corporation came because its injury rates showed up favor-ably when compared with the food industry average rand with the corporation's own previous rates. The achievement brought a word of thanks from the Safety Council for proving "what we keep telling people —that it can be done . . . work injuries can be prevent-ed. Safe operations can be made safer. It's more than worth the 'effort. It prevents suffering, saves lives..." Ambulance Fund Soars To Total Of $13,500 Completing what he termed "the most enthusiastic and successful" campaign with which he has been associated, C. J. Speicher, chairman of the Fund Raising Committee of the newly-formed Hershey Ambulance Corps, announced on Monday that a total of $13,500 had been contributed by the residents of Derry Township, Union Deposit, Sand.Beach and nearby areas toward the purchase of a new ambulance. He also indicated that 2,500 people have signed up for membership in the Ambulance Corps, which is sponsored by the Hershey Volunteer Fire Co. As has been mentioned previously, the campaign's goal was $9,000. These sur-plus funds will assure ade-quate reserves for replace-ment and operating pur-poses for the future. In addition to the volunteer canvassers whose names were carried in last week's edition of the NEWS, the following workers should be recognized for their efforts, their names ha v ing been inadvertently overlooked when the NEWS went to press: Palmdale — $561, Clayton Kauffman, William Meiser, Louis B.

Hershey, Pa. areas, the service clubs, the veterans, fraternal and indus-trial organizations, as well as the Ladies Auxiliaries of the Fire Company and the VFW, Lewis Maurer, John L. Steen and C. J. Speicher. In expressing the "sin-cere thanks to all those who so graciously received the workers as they called on their many neighbors during the c a m pa ig n," Chairman Speicher glow-ingly complimented "the great team that made the calls, without whose faith-fulness and energetic en-thusiasm the canvass would not have succeeded as it did. These, too, have our sincere thanks for a job well done."
