Concentrating much Of its effort on
saving lives in trafno accidents, the
National Conference on Street and
Highway Safety will point to the
record made by Washington in re-
ducing automobile fatalities the
f1rHt eight months of 1925 when it
meets in the Capital during the COM

regulation in Washington is being
closely watched by the conference and
n special report will be made to the
conferees on traffic developments here
by Ernset Greenwood. secretary of
the body, of which Secretary Hoover
Is chairman.
The reduction in traffic deaths in
Washington from January l to mid
September Of this year, approximating
35 per cent, is particularly gratifying
to the conference, since Washington
Is now regarded as the focal city in
which modern traffic experiments are
worked out on a scale which can be
applied to other cities. Traffic deaths
here numbered 50 from January l to
September u.
1O8 Killed in 1924.
In 1924 10S persons met death in
Washington in traffic accidents, ac-
cording to provisional figures OF the

were killed by automobiles in the Capt.

ably be between these figures when
the totals for the year are computed,

In addition automobile registration Is
higher this year than last year or
1928.
Long before the first meeting OF the

were being waged in every city
throughout the country, backed by
civic and trade organizations, street
railways. steam railroads, automople

heads. The campaign was lntenslned

The net result has been gratifying

Ratio Much Lower.
Even though the net decrease is
small in the 81 cities surveyed, total

considered a hopeful indication of
change for the better. For the 81

ported 638 automobile deaths against

Chicago has reported 40 against $50.
