Deaths Drop

RICHMOND. July 6 R.-
Highway crashes In Virginia in
1854 took $40 lives. caused 24.35o
injuries and chalked up property
damage estimated at more than
$76 million.
This information was revealed
in a 32-page booklet released
yesterday by the Virginia State
Police, titled Virginia Traffic
Crash Facts"
The booklet noted that 1854
marked a 1912 per cent reduc-
tion in deaths, a 1.3 per cent
drop in injuries and a 9.5 per
cent decrease in property dam
ages.
virginia's rate Of 6.2 deaths
for every 100 million vehicular
miles last year for the first time
was below the national death
raCe OF 90.
State Police Supt. Col. c. w.
Woodson attributed this largely
ito the advent of radar speed en-
forcement and the fact that Vir-
Iginia's State police force reached
full strength for the first time
since prewar days.
The booklet noted that some
violation of a traffic law occurred
in at least I'll per cent of all
crashes. and that 1876 per cent
Iof the drivers involved in fatal
crashes had been drinking.
These figures would be even
higher. Woodson said, If all the

1t is believed the executive
group discussed preliminary

Der commission will review at an

Whether the Governor will call

High Stores
Win First Bout
In Milk Fight
Court Refuses to Halt
Sales 18 Cents Below
Virginia Minimum

Highs stores have won the
first round of a fight to sell milk
below minimum prices f1xed by
the Virginia State Milk Commis-
sion.
Alexandria Federal Judge Al
bert v. Bryan last night turned
down a petition by the Virginia
Attorney General to restrain
Highs from selling milk at IA
cents a gallon, which is 18 cents
below the minimum price set by
the milk commission.
Holds No Jurisdiction
Judge Bryan ruled that his
court was without jurisdiction
in the case. He held that no
Federal question was involved
and that no diversity of citizen-
ship existed because the State Of
Virginia cannot be, considered a
Citizen" Diversity, Of citizen
ship is one ground that permits
a case to be aired in a Federal
Court.
Judge Bryan said his decision
was without prejudice to the
State, however, If it chose to take
the case to the Circuit Court OF
Richmond, as specified in the
act creating the milk commits
sion.
Highs stores began selling
milk in nearby Virginia for IA
cents a gallon on Friday. G. Y.
Stephens, president, explained
that his attorneys felt the recent
Virginia Supreme Court decision
in the Safeway case invalidated
existing milk price minimums.
Court Ruling Cited
The Supreme. Court held in
the Safeway case that the milk
commission must set maximum
as we'll as minimum prices and
that it could not set different
prices for milk sold in stores and
milk delivered at home.
r. D. McIlwaine, assistant to
Attorney General j. Lindsay AL
|mond, argued in court yesterday
that the minimum prices still
were in effect. He said the Su-
|preme Court instructed the COM
mission to amend its price or
|ders. and noted that a hearing
for that purpose was scheduled
in Alexandria for July IA,
