CASUALTIES OF JULY 4 According to early reports, 176 Amer- icans gave up their lives on Independence as follows:. Fireworks, 3; automobile, 69; drowning, 70; other causes, 34. Many ‘hundreds were more or less seriously in- jured,.and some may have died later. This is a gruesome record but it shows & marked improvement over those of other recent years, especially that of 1931, when 4} 483 persons were killed on July 4. F A nation-wide movement for a “safe and sane” Fourth was started in 1906 by James Keeley, a Chicago newspaper editor, and as a result, the number of deaths on the nation’s birthday have been materially de- exeased, especially from fireworks. But there seems to be little progress in reducing the heavy toll of lives taken by automobile accidents and drownings, most of which could be avoided by the exercise. of a reasonable degree of caution.
