Waterbury's general traffic acci- dent experience increased 5.5 per cent or 37 cases during 1940 over 1889, although persons injured de- creased six cases, and fatalities three cases.
 There were 708 accidents in 1940 in Waterbury as compared to 67l in 1889; 40 persons injured as com pared to 446 in 1889; nine killed as compared to l2 in 1889.
 These figures are included in the annual traffic summary which the State Department of Motor Vehicles will issue soon. A comparison of six large Connecticut cities with populations of more than 50,000 in- dicates the important part these cities play in the state wide traffic accident picture.
