licate what has been done in Rhode Island and other states. Therefore, when Connecticut's six largest cities increase not only the fatal accidents caused in their areas, but also show an increase from forty-four to fifty eight in resident operators involved in fatal accidents, 1t does not seem that effective accident prevention programs are being waged.
 In Special Class
 "Meirden. Torrington, Ansonia,
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-07-18

Commissioner Michael A. Connor is distributing to interested agencies and persons a six months report of Connecticut's traffic fatality expe- rience during 1888 and 1889, prepared by the safety promotion section Of the state department of motor vehi- cles. "This half-year comparison" states the commissioner, shows that Connecticut has recorded ten less fatal accidents and, as conse- quence, sixteen fewer fatalities. As we entered July, our fatality score for 1899 was little better than Il per cent less than for the first six months of 1938."
 AS an illustration how the pen- dulum may quickly swing to the op- posite side and undo work of months was pointed out by Commissioner Connor in 8 special notation that over the past weekend five per- sons met death in automobile acci- dents on the highways of Connecti- cut. The accompanying figures were prepared and printed Saturday and marked for release Sunday or Mon- day.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-07-18


 Gratifying as 1t is to show a de- crease in fatal accidents and in fatal cases," commented Commissioner Connor concerning the six months study, i've are concerned because of an increase of one in pedestrian type of fatal accidents, seyenty-two fatal motor car versus pedestrian type of accidents being charged against l939, as compared with seventy-one for 1888.
 Urged Prevention
 "At the beginning of the year we urged all accident prevention agen- cies to pay particular attention to pedestrian cc iden ts. Pedestrian cases have for years been the ma jority of our annual traffic fatalities.
 We are also deeply concerned be- cause, as group, the 'congested area" communities contributed more fatalities to the 1889 total. These thirty-three cities and towns, all having established police depart ments and, presumably, adequate facilities to control traffic, were re- sponsible for 58.3 per cent of the l27 fatalities caused during the first six months this year as compared with 538 of the 1888 cases.
 These communities are listed in our report, affording a comparison of their respective traffic fatality records. Danbury, Torrington, Mid dletown, Milford, Derby, Shelton, Putnam, Rockville, Winsted and Willimantic kept their 1939 states clean. Tn 1888 these places were charged with eleven fatalities. Out of the decrease of sixteen cases re- ported as of July 1st for 1889, as compared with 1888, these commu- mites are credited with eleven of the lives saved.
 Records Scanned Bridgeport, with an increase of six cases over the seven charged against the city for 1888 and Hart ford, with an increase of four over ! seven for 1888, lead the list of com munities reporting increased cases New Haven cut a 1888 total oi eleven down to seven and Water bury reduced a 1888 total of five fatalities to three for this year.
 "Of equal concern is the fact that the same group of communi- ties furnished ninety-eight of the l65 operators involved in fatal acci- dents during the first six months oi last year, or fifty-nine per cent; whereas this perctnage jumped tc seventy for 1899, when 105 opera. tors out of 149 were from the con- gested area group.
 we know that fate plays a strong hand in fatal accidents. that nc person plans to cause or be in. volyed in a fatal mishap. We also appreciate that the bulk of oui operator population comes from these larger Connecticut cities and towns.
 But we feel that these particular places, with their established police departments. city courts. traffic safety commissions, safety education in schools. etc.. have plenty of facilt. ties and authority to supervise and influence their local traffic. Many Of the largest cities in the country are proving that communities car control local traffic. Connecticut communities should be able to dup
