The nation’s war dead totals 244,357 in comparison to a toll of 389,000 ratalities from highway accidents in the past 15 years. Traffic mishaps claim an average of one life every 20 minutes, based on the all-time record of 36,000 traffic deathe last year. The alarming number of highway fatalities has caused a number of states to set up regulations governing drivers and issuing of licenses. The Red Cross is launching a program to establish first aid stations throughout United States and the National Safety council is enlisting civic groups in an cducational safety campmgn.
