MOTOR ACCIDENTS ARE ON INCREASE Chicago Officials Prescribe Dras- tic Rules to Safeguard Public Chicago, Sept. 20 (By the Assoclat- ed Press)—Despite the passage of numerous ordinances and the adop- tion of traffic regulations in the larg- er cities of the country in an effort to curb accidents from motor cars, re- ports from more than a dozen of the metropolitan cities of the middlewest show an increase In the number of ac- cidents for the first six months of 1922, compared with the same period of 1021, | This increase has caused city of- ficlals to prescribe drastic rules in governing motor traffic in an endeav- or to lessen danger in modern travel- ing. Several of the cities are shown to be waging war on the speeder, in many cass imprisonment being added to fines by municipal judges. Adop- tion of rules in turning at street in-' tersections, elimination of glaring headlights and educational campaigns | are other methods used in many cities | in the campaign against accidents. | In Chicago in 1921, deaths attrib- | uted to motor accidents totaled | as compared with 475 in 1920, Non- fatal accidents totaled 8,657 in 1921 and 7,085 in 1920. During the first | four months of 1922, non-fatal ac- cidents totaled 2,533. Forty-three persons were killed and 1,065 injured, in automobile acci- dents in Cleveland from February 1, to August 1, 1922, To offset this, workhouse sentences have been im- posed upon speeders and reckless privrs, no one under 18 years of age | may drive a car and second offense for failure to have lights burning re- sults in arrest, no matter what the 575 circumstance. To curb accidents in St. Louls, Wwhere sixty-two were killed during the first six months of this year and 1,327 were injured, an educational campaign has been started, one-way traffic has been established in con- gested districts during business hours, automobjles must come to complete stop at all boulevards, must not pass a street car discharging passengers and must not exceed eight miles an hour in the congested districts and 20 miles in the residential districts. Detroit's attempt to increase safety are the adoption of the tower sys- tem of regulating traffic and the es- tablishment of safety zones for street car passengers. Another ordinance requires all persons to be able to drive an automobile under all conditions before being granted a state driver's license. Seventy persons were killed there during the first six months of 1922 and, 1,921 were injured. Strict enforcement of speed laws and frequent jail sentences for speed- ers and reckless drivers has been the method adopted in Indianapolis for In down-town sec- | stions traffic officers direct pedestrians while others direct street traffic. In Oklahoma City, most of main traveled streets have designated boulevards and the been before to come to a complete stop. “Stop" signs painted on pavement at these intersections mind the driver.

Under these conditions of congestion a deplorable lack of food and water exists.
