Traffic Toll i'm New Rise

In our nation, where the shat
tering of records in all forms of en-
deavor has become commonplace,
we have again hung up a new rec
ord. Instead of progress, however,
it is a record of stark tragedy.
Willard A. Campbell, district
manager of the Farmers Automobile
Insurance Exchange, makes the
startling statement that the traffic
deaths in our nation during the
aI-time high for that month,
month of August skyrocketed to an
snuffing out 1910 lives.
For the year of 1941 traffic fatal
tiles show a net increase of Is per-
cent over the corresponding period
of last year. The main portion OF
the increase during July and August
took a decided swing to cities OF TO-
600 and more population.
Despite efforts of traffic regula-
tory bodies, safety organizations
and all who work for a solution to
the problem, the toll OF death and
misery continued to pile up. The
only answer lies in more coopera-
tion on the part Of every citizen
more recognition of the situation IN
its true light-as an individual prob
lem.
