AUTO ACCIDENT
DEATHS RAISED

Washington, ID. c.. Nov. 23.-The
Department of Commerce announces
that in the registration area in con-
tinental United States there were
21,16O accidental deaths u 1927
charged to automobiles and other
motor vehicles Excluding motor
cycles), and that the death rate from
this cause was 1875 per 1000 popula-
ton against 17.9 in 1926, II in 1925,
1877 in 1922. and 14.9 in 1923.
1t should be noted, however, that
the deaths assigned to automobile
accidents do not include those due to
collisions Of automobiles with street
cars and with railroad trains. There
fore. as in 1927 there were 476
deaths due 70 collisions Of automo-
biles with street cars and GIG due
to collisions with railroad trains.
These deaths il added to the 21,16O
assigned to automobile accidents
would make for the registration area
a grand total Of 23,312 deaths due
to accidents in which automobiles
were involved and would raise the
rate from 1875 to 2l.5 per 100000
population.
As in -: the registration area
included only 91.3 pc: cent Of the to-
tai population of the United States,
by assuming that the number Of
deaths from automobile accidents re-
ported in the registration area COM
prises 9l.3 per cent Of the number Of
deaths from automobile accidents in
the entire United States. it may be
estimated that the total number of
deaths in that year due to accidents
in which automobiles were involved
was approximately 1858.

The exact location of the spot is

about one hundred miles from Los

one Of the most hazardous Of any in
