According to these files, an acci- dent was reported at the rate of slightly more than one an hour, Previous to January 1, 1920, only @ very few accidents were to police. Since the creation of the traffic division early in the spring of 1920, they have been pouring into Room 117, traffic division head- quarters, at a greater rte than that shown in the average for the year.

The immigration started when ff became known that békinning Sate urday Seattle will have 61 less policeman on duty each day than at present. On New Year's day the city ordinance allowing policemen one day in eight off goes into effect. Sixty-four policemen are expected to be off duty each day because of this ordinance. The city council, by im creasing the force by only 15 men, has failed to provide sufficient rein forcements to fill the gap made by the absence of these men SEATTLE FORTUNATE, SAY POLICK Police officials, while admitting that the usual “crime wavelet” of the winter has visited the city, point out that Seattle has been particularly fortunate in comparison with other large cities of the coontry, Especially in New York, Chicago, Boston and Los Angeles have the activities of criminals, aided by their latest weapon, the auto, swept police off their feet.
