house points out that the proposed act is permissive legislation and no compulsion would be placed upon the towns to use any portion of their state-aid road funds for street lighting should they not wish to do so. '.
 Forward Step
 Tn view of this fact" the letter says, "and, further, in view of the large percentage of accidents and fatalities which are and have been occurring on our highways during the night hours, due to a large ex- tent to the absence of adequate street lighting, 1t would seem that Senate Bill No. 1928, permitting the use of any desired portion of the towns state-aid road funds for highway lighting, should have re- ceived favorable consideration as a logical and desirable step forward, not only as a measure directed to- ward the conservation of human life in Connecticut but also in effecting a reduction in our states economic loss of approximately $l8,000, ,000 each year, all caused by highway accidents.
 While we need improved roads, and an extension of our present road system, including those built and maintained under our state-aid road grant, 1t is becoming more and more urgent that some thought be direct ed toward conservation. We can not continue to go along spending with no thought toward the elim- ination of losses.
 Cut Accident Toll
 Additional and more adequate highway lighting would assist in re- ducing our highway accidents and fatalities, reduce our economic loss es caused by these accidents and, further, be most welcome improve ment in our communities for both the driver and pedestrian who use our highways at night.
 '"This year seventy-four people have been killed on our highways. Fifty -six of these have been pedes- trians and the greater number was killed during the hours of darkness. Added or improved highway light ing would have prevented many of these deaths and saved many thou sands of dollars"
