From January 1st to December 1st, 1923, there were 7,575 total arrests by all police for violation of the motor vehicle law. Of these 638 were for driving while intoxicated. 2508 for reckless driving and 1429 for other offenses, Of these 3146 licenses were suspended for periods varying ‘rom three months to a year and out of the balance, a large number of suspensions were given for short terms, During the same term of 1923 there were: 228 fatal accidents. The statistics on the division of the whole 228 are not as yet obtainable, but out of 133 of them . 65 were pedestrians, of whom EGENTS Pl(;‘;‘:gfits.

These states had the best record of any and 'llll‘ their fatal accidents statistics showed a definite re- duction over 1921 when the additional number of WALLY VAN, PATSY RUTH MILLER & ALEC B. FRANCIS cars and extra traffic hazards are taken into ac- count. While these two states probably will not lose their standing in comparison with the other states during 1923, vet accidents have increased in num- ber and severity and more prevention measures must be taken and more caution exercised.
