Hopes For Lowered Highway Slaughter Hopeful Death Toll Tide Now Turning (Editor's note: Less slaugh- - ter on America’s highways in 1955! That is the expressed hope — rather than the prediction —of the head of the National Safety Council, who reveals his reasons for this hope in the following article.) By NED H. DEARBORN President, National Safety Council Written Expressly for International News Service CHICAGO (INS) — Safety people are notably pessimistic and there is a good reason. Too often we have been encouraged to believe that the accident toll was on the verge of taking a sharp and permanent dip. And then — up it went again! But right now we believe the tide at long last has turned in the war on accidents. We belieye the traffic .‘toll ,wlll continue to go down. ' The Reasons Why do we believe this? 1. The number of traffic deaths

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

has been in the nation's history, and only slightly more than half of what it was 10 years ago.In view of all this, 1 think that the nation has every right to hope and brlieve that the traffic accident problem is being whipped, little by little, and that the encouraging reductions are not merely a flash in the- pan. Why is the toll coming down? in my opinion, the answer can be found largely in the following facts: 1. Never before has there been

so much action and interest dn traffic safety by the government on all levels — national, state and local. The President’s Action Committee for Highway Safety, which is doing i highly effective and energetic job of enlisting the American public, business people and public officials in a concerted attack on traffic accidents, is a conspicuous example of the part government is playing in accident prevention. • 2, Business and industry are more and more extending their experience and know-how in safety beyond the factory gate fice door to the whole comjrriinity as a public service. 3. The public information media and doing a magnificent job enlisting pubMc supprirt fqj--safety. " * itself is doing a bet4<i’ job than ever before of preventing accidents through enforcement, engineering and education.

Traffic deaths are running about 7 percent below last year so far. If this trend continues for the rest of the year, the toll will be at least 2.00 T) below last year’s total of 38,300.'
