There were 3 per cent fewer deaths on highways during July than in the same month last vear, the council said. Tt was the first decline in the fatality rate since last October, ang the council attributed the drop to a nation-wide educational and enforcement campaign, It pointed to the paradox of reduced fatalities on the roads during a month of exceptionally heavy traffic and the additional peril of 8 Fourth of week-end. July's toll was 2760, 80 fewer than July, 1939. It brought the death list for the first seven months of 1940 to 17420, an increase of 5 per cent over the total for the same | period last year, The council per-miles of level for the as there was year. Nevada led 19 states creases in deaths during July, the Pacific Coast section was only one reporting more fatalities. On the basis of seven-months' reports Buffalo, N. Y.; Providence, R. 1. Lynn, Mass.; Davenport, Ia. Lakewood, O.; Council Bluffs. Ia. Kearny, N. J, and High Point,| N. C, led their respective classes| of cities in scarcity of traffic deaths. |
