By LEONARD A. BARRETT 36,000 PEOPLE KILLED BY AUTOS IN 1934 Previous depressions were caused by •'let. up" In business and a shrinkage of bank credit/ Financiers Bfored cash in vaults, and those who had ready cash, hoarded It. T h i s. however, preceded p r e v i o u s d e p r e s sions, and to a large extent accentuated its suffering. Famines were caused by lack of supplies Incident to drouth seasons and general failure of crops. People went hungry b e c a u s e there was a deficiency of food, .* The present depression, out of which We are gradually emerging; occurred not in a period of failure of crops or stagnation of business; but in the midst of a period of unprecedented prosperity. The cause for it, therefore, was not our failures but bur successes. People are hurigry today. nf>t because there is a lack, of food. „ We have more food than we can possibly consume. We have had no famine as in some Qjriental countries. Farm products have been so abundant that it was necessary to destroy a portion of them in order to stabilize prices. Some persons are sick today, hopelessly fighting disease, not because we do not have adequate medical knowledge. In truth, never before in our history were we riiore efficiently equipped with surgical skill and medical facilities. Young The worst automobile accident" casualty' ever experienced in the United States was recorded last year when 36,000 persons were killed nearly a million injured as a result pf 882,060 personal injury collisions on streets and highways. Although practically two-thirds of the accidents involved driving errors, pedestrians paid the highest price in the loss of life as shown by thfe death of nearly 16,000, or 44 per cent of the total fatalities. Detailed statistics giving tjie circumstances of the accidents as tabulated by The Travelers Insurance Co. in its annual analysis show that the country's adverse experience was not due solely to an increase in the use of motor vehicles. Deaths gained 16 per cent as against an increase of between 5 and 6 per cent in registrations and 6 per cent in gasoline consumption. In this connection the analysis points out that in 1931, the previous high record in deaths, registrations were 3 per cent greater and gasoline consumption nearly one per cent more than in 1934, while fatalities in 1931 were almost 8 per cent less than last •year.- ' . j Too much ?peed for time and place .! is citted as the dominant factor in the greater seriousness of automobile accidents last year. As an example of the, extreme hazard produced by driving too fast, the rate of death per accident because of exceeding the speed limit was 40 per cent worse last year than the average of all accidents involving driving errors. Available records for the year sjjow that 31.6 pjjH^cent of the drivers in accidents were declared to have been under the influence of intoxicants as against 2.43 per cent in 1933, an increase of one third.

Perter of St. Paul was arrested j,§or stealing the suit in which he was jured in automobile accidents during the year, while 3,800 between the ages five and fourteen met~~death and 143.000 were injured. Despite figures indicating that nine out of ten cars involved in accidents were apparently in good condition, three out of every four cars examined in inspections were found to be in poor or bad mechanical condition. According to the inspections, 29 per cent of the cars required brake replacements or adjustments, tires were in only fair or poor condition on 56 per cent, and lamps required replacement or adjustments in 63 per cent of the cars. Although 38 per cent of the 882,000 personal-injury automobile accidents occurred at street intersections, by far the largest number of deaths resulted from accidents that happened oft highways. , The rate of death per accident on highways was more than 100 per cent greater than the average for all accidents combined, the seriousness of such accidents being attributed to the rate of speed that usually prevails. As a further indication that speed is a hazardous factor, it is pointed out that the rate of death per accident between intersections was 52 per cent worse than at intersections. Accidents on Saturdays and Sundays resulted in four ont of t^ery ten deaths. The record was the worst on Sundays, however, as the rate of the deaths per accident on that day throughout the year was 18 per cent in excess of the average. On Saturdays the rate of death was only 3 per cent, more than the average. A most serious aspect of the automobile accident problem that has been in evidence a number of years and which continued to be bad last year was the great number of fatal accidents during periods of dusk and darkness . During the year there wi_j not a single one of the twelve normal hours of darkness in which the rate.- of death per accident was less thin during the daytime hours. From 6 A. M. to 6 P. M., the normal daytime hours, there were 459,510 automobile accidents in which 15,050 persons were killed, but from 6 P. M., the normal hours of darkness, her* were 422,490 accidents in which 20,950 persons were killed. The rate of death per accident was 51.4 per cent worse during hours of darkness than during hours of daylight. On the basis of the night volume of traffic, which is only a fifth of all traffic, the rate of death during 'darkness was several hundred per cent greateV than in daylight. During the four rush hours of the evenings, from 5 to 9 o'clock, deaths exceeded the record of the four rush hours of 6 to JO in the mornings by 289 per cent. The hour just before midnight was the most dangerous, as the rate of death per accident for that hour was the highest, 35 per cent greater than the average for all hours combined.. The hour between 10 to 11 A. M, was the least hazardous as the rate of death per accident was the lowest, almost 33, per cent under the average. ~_ Excluding sueh factors as exposure to traffic 'lazards and miles driven the f-.tal accident experience of men drivers, for t*>e year was 34 per cent greater than for the women. With the exception of drivers past 65 years of age, where the fatal accident experience involves the greater probability of an accident proving serious, the accident record of drivers under 18 years of age was the Worse of any age classification. Under that the iaial aeeifrttfe record war 4* farm, located near Ringwood, to Math. Freund, moved to the former Ch^ia Blake farm at Johnsburgh on Tuesday of this week.

PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby give* All members of the Illinois Republican delegation in Congress are pledged to support the immediate payment in cash of the world war veterans adjusted service certificates, while according to the current issue of the Illinois Legionaire, only two Democrats are definitely^ committed to this course. It now seems probable that the House Ways and Means Committee will be ready to start hearings on the various bonus bills by Monday. Feb. 18. Sponsors of the bills say that they have been promised that consideration of the bonus would be taken up as soon as the social security measures "have been disposed of by the committee. Hearings on the latter measure Were concluded on Friday, February, 8, but the committee expects to take at least a week to prepare its report and rewrite the original bill in accordance With its conclusions. The task is a big one in view of the wide scope of the bill covering, old age pensions, unemployment insurance, child and public health aid. However, there is some possibility that the committee may dispense with hearings, and. that both the Patman and Vinson bills may be brought to the floor of the House earlier than Feb. 18, leaving the choice to the Com mittee of the whole House. Arends And Reed State Attitude Congressman Chauncey W. Reed of the 11th Illinois District and Congressman Leslie C. Arends of the 17th District have not announced which of the several measures providing for bonus payment will have their support preferring to decide this when the bill or bills, as the case may be, are brought to the floor of the House. At that time their support will be given to the measure reported by the Committee and to any amendment which they deem necessary to insure immediate payment of the bonus in full and on a basis that will be to the best in- Dr. C.

Between 25 and 64 years, the ratio of such drivers in fatal accidents was 11 per cent better than the average. As an indication that drivers by careful operation can prevent many accidents, the fatal accident record in rainy weather and when snow was falling was better last year than the average for all accidents combined. Irf clear weather, the ratio of fatal accidents to total Occidents under such conditions was worse than the average. On wet, snowy and icy surfaces the fatal accident experience was better than on dry road surfaces, thus supporting the contention that many drivers are put off their guard by apparently safe conditions. An examination of the automobile accident experience during the year on the basis of the direction of travel brings out the importance of drivers keeping speed under control. Only when the direction of travel was straight ahead was the rate of death per accident greater than the average for all accidents combined.
