AUTO DEATHS
LESS in june
4O-Mile Speed Brings Marked
Decrease, But Six-Months
Record Not So Good.

A very marked decrease in traffic
fatalities has been shown during the
first month the 40-mile speed limit
has been in effect in Minnesota, &C
cording TO w. F. Rosenwald, traffic
engineer of the Minnesota highway
department
The month of June shows 80
percent decrease in traffic deaths over
the same month in 1941. Before the
40-mile an hour speed limit was put
into effect on Friday, May 20, the
records showed an approximate u
per cent increase in fatalities dur
ing the first five months of 1912, as
compared to the same period Of 1941.
However, in the first month after the
40-mile speed law was effective, "a
persons lost their lives in traffic acct
dents, as compared to 40 during the
month of June, 1941.
Despite the fact that the majority
of Minnesota motorists are conform
ing to the 40-mile speed limit, the
FIRST SIX MONTHS of 1912 does
not show very great decrease in the
number of fatalities, as compared with
the same period in 1941. The "a deaths
in June may be partially contributed
to the fact that drivers neglected to
practice the same alert driving habits
used when higher speed laws were in
effect.
People driving automobiles on the
streets and highways Of Minnesota
accomplished a marked fatality de-
crease during June and thus are
showing their patriotic attitude and
willingness to contribute to the war
effort.

able distances to meet and swap
stories with old friends.
The day was ideal for the picnic at
Mckinley Park where at noon private
lunch baskets were supplemented with
a most tasty "booyah," (the piece de
resistance at association picnics) which
is yearly cooked, furnished and served
by the Oliver Mining company as a
compliment to the associated members.
Supt. B. o. Strachan was chairman OF
the committee in charge OF the
"booyah."
Following lunch hour, the Tower-
Soudan band under the direction OF
Prof. Minelli, played concert at the
pavilion. The director and his group
of As youthful players, some of whom
were about the size of the instru-
ment they carried, received many de-
served compliments for their work.
The young soloists received particular
commentator.
MI. Strachan presided at the meet
ing at the pavilion, substituting for
Pesident Benson who felt unequal TO
the occasion, but did arise when intro
duced and made a short address In
which he thanked the association for
the honor conferred on him in elect
ing him president and also touchingly
told of happenings during his resi-
ence in Tower in the very early days
of the city. VIM. G. Smith served as
secretary.
No sooner had the program at the
pavilion been started when the storm
which had threatened for severa
hours, broke and rain descended II
torrents. The program was carried Out
however, at times with difficulty.
Sheriff Sam H Owens, born II
Tower in 1894, had been wisely selected
by Martin Gunderson, chairman O
the speakers committee, to make th'
address of the day. Sam was equal Il
