cree from district court Judge sit
ting In the Franklin county court at
Hampton. This was proclaimed as
speed record In Iowa judicial CIR
cles.
New evidence must have been
submitted TO the court that same

ment as a basis for her prayers.

Ames. Feb. f6.-Are Iowans being
shocked into saner use of the public
highways?
In 1917. Isl persons lost their lives
as result Of reckless and careless
driving. In 1918 the hummer dropped
to 237 and in 1919 there was a fur
thcr drop to 2O3.
In 1917 the accidents in which no
fatalities occurred totaied 800; in
1918, 3,027: and in 1919. 2,Soe.
People injured to the extent OF
broken bones or mangled bodies In
1917 totaled 5,206; in 1918, $3.50 and
In 1919. 2,70s.
Probably in every one of these
years there were more deaths and
more accidents than those recorded.
These figures are tabulated entirely
from reports Of accidents taken from
the newspaper clippings which reach
the highway commission office. How
ever the records as they stand are
gruesome enough. The totals for the
three years stand TEL deaths. 1895
accidents. and 1884 people WITH
broken bones and mangled bodies.
Very few of these accidents, II one
judges from the newspaper accounts.
could be attributed to unavoidable
circumstances. Collisions between
automobiles head the list in every in
stance. Always it would appear
from these accounts one or the other.
II not beth cars. in collision are trav-
cling at a high rate Of speed. AS
matter of fact, unless there is con-
siderable speed on the part Of one or
the other there is little likelihood of
any fatalities occurring in such ac-
cidents. One hundred and twenty
five automobiles were wrecked and
113 people injured as a result of hit
ting obtructions in the road. Prob
ably in the majority of these cases
drivers were not to blame in these
accidents. Two hundred and sixty
three automobiles went over en-
bankments or into the side ditch
along the roadway. injuring $40,
people. In almost every case these
appeared to be the result of fast or
careless driving. both at turns. bridge
approaches and straightaway.
Railroad crossings in 1917 took a
toll of 81 lives, the figures were the
same in 1918, but in 1919 there was
q drop to an even fifty.
. During the year one death resulted
from what might be called freak az
cident, when an automobile and its
occupant were crushed beneath the
falling limb of tree during severe
wind storm. Another person lost his
life when his speeding car struck
dog. A mother leaped from a car
with child in her arms when a car
started backwards down a hill. The
child slipped from her arms and was
killed. A blowout on speeding car
upset the car and crushed the life of
one occupant. A father backing his
car ran over and killed his own child.
One speeding car plunged headlong
into river and drowned one, another
hit a bridge railing, another a tree,
and another telephone pole, all
with fatal results to at least one per-
son in each accident
