LUTZ SAYS DILLINGER AIDED IN LAW REFORM Attorney-General Credits Gangster With Bringing About Changes. John Dillinger and his gangsters left a heritage of good as well as evil to the state of Indiana because his career resulted in important criminal law reform in both state and nation, Atty. Gen. Philip Lutz Jr., said yesterday, pinch-hitting for Gov. McNutt in the state’s weekly broadcast. Fifteen new laws were enacted as the outcome of the Dillinger crime wave, Mr. Lutz said. Discussing the duties of his office, the attorney general said he could point with pride to the fact that following reorganization of the state government by Gov. McNutt, “not a single general law of the 1933 legislative program has been held unconstitutional by either state or Federal courts.”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

STATE'S MUTUR DEATHS DECLINE TWOJ’ER CENT Indiana Mortality Rate Is Lower Than Increase in U. S. for 1935. Indiana, with 2 per cent fewer motor car fatalities in 1935 than In 1934, ranked today as one of the states in the nation with a mortality rate lower than the 1 per cent increase for the entire country. Massachusetts, with 18 per cent fewer fatalities, held the honor position. Indiana had 1154 auto fatalities in 1935 against 1117 during 1934. Figures of the National Safety Council show that a 7.6 per cent increase in gasoline consumption in Indiana for nine months of 1935, made it possible for automobile drivers to increase the mileage traveled with fewer fatal accidents. 36,400 Billed in 1935 The bulletin of the safety council, revealing 36,400 motor car fatalities in 1935 as against 36,001 in 1934, show's that the population increased 1 per cent or at the same ratio as did automobile deaths, but car registrations increased 4 per cent and gasoline consumption 6 per cent in the nation. Maine, with a 73 per cent increase in motor car deaths, was the nation’s most unsafe state for drivers and pedestrians. Illinois with 12 per cent fewer fatal accidents and Kentucky with 7 per cent led Indiana in safety, while Ohio had an almost 9 per cent increase in fatalities during 1935. Hope to Cut Rate 7 Per Cent Plans for a five-year campaign to reduce deaths in the nation 7 per cent, with an actual saving of 2,548 lives during 1936, is the goal of the National Safety Council. It is hoped that automobile deaths will not exceed 33,852 during 1936. Donald F. Stiver, state safety director, and accident prevention bureaus of police departments of Indiana are co-operating with the safety council in their efforts to reduce the traffic toll. The council points out in its bulletin that if fatalities had increased in 1935 at the same ratio as motor car registrations, that 37.500 traffic tombstones would be added to the cemeteries of the nation instead of 36,400.

SPEAKER URGES LAWS TO CURB TRAFFjCDEATHS Leader at Y. M. C. A. Meeting Blames Liquor for Fatalities. A proposal to curb traffic fatalities by legislating against the drunken driver and pedestrian was under consideration today by those who attended the Y. M. C. A. Big Meeting yesterday afternoon in Keith’s. “Leaping into a high-geared sales program at the beginning of its third year since its return as a legalized ‘industry,’ the liquor traffic in 1936, we predict, will prove a

major obstacle in the progress of the nation-wide death-prevention program just launched in forty-one states in co-operation with the National Safety Council.” declared Alonzo E. Wilson, field director. American Business Men’s Research i Foundation of Chicago, at the meeting. “Aside from, and in spite of all safety drives, elevated highway projects and aducational campaigns, j the twin factors of drinking driver and drinking pedestrian are becom- ; ing more and more a major problem j in the traffic field. “Whatever else may be done, there should be a nation-wide movement j started without delay, to ban alcohol j at or near all filling stations, to bar liquor ads from the- highways and provide scientific tests for the pres- j ence of alcohol for every driver and pedestrian involved in traffic accidents.” Breaks Leg in Fall Mrs. Margaret Knannlein, 70, 1609 E. Michigan-st, is suffering a broken leg following a fall downstairs yesterday.
