The loss Is estimated at $500

Education Better

1T is impossible to trace every

transport committee OF the United
States council of national defense.
For this reason it is impossible to
say how many people are killed in
any city by traffic accidents. The
most accurate reports we have to go
by are probably those Of the police.
In Washington for the year ending
June %. 1916. there were SO deaths.
In Washington for the year ending
