c
ponce, today reported a provi
sional summary of last year's statewide traffic accident fatali
ties totaled 765, an increase of seven "per cent over the 1943 total of 717. The 1943 figure repre- i sented a 30 per cent drop' under 1942, he said. A total of 463 ' persons were ' killed in rural areas last year, as compared with 416 the previous 12-month period, an increase of 11 1 per cent. The 302 accident victims j recorded in urban districts was '
an increase of one over 1943. Appeal to' Drivers. "Much of the increase in loss of life can Ue attributed to motorists who fall into careless driving habits because of the decline in '.motor "vehicular; traffic," ". according to the state police official. Pointing out that the war is far from over, Eckert 'appealed to drivers to adhere to state traffic regulations in the interests of speeding victory. "The tire and car situation is more critical than ever before with no relief in sight," he asserted, appealing to every" motorist to become" Conservation conscious. Auto-Train Toll Heavy. Acting Superintendent Eckert's statement indicated an alarming increase in auto-traln fatalities

ROBERT A. GALLAGHER, presi tlent of Public Service Com-1 pany oflndiana, Inc., follow-' ing a precedent established several years ago, here makes his annual report to utility . customers of operating progress of the Company during 1944:
"1944 was another busy'
year. Sales of electric energy were in excess of 1.500,000,000 kilowatt-hours, for which we re. 'ceived an average of 1.71c per kilowatt-hour. Sales of gas were in excess of 43,000,000 therms
'n act average of 7.5c per therm. These -realiza
tions for Electricity and Gas are new low records.
"After paying all costs of production and distribution and providing for all taxes, the amount left was equal to slightly less than five per cent of our invested capital . . i this com pares with a five and one-half per cent return

Construction proceeded on an additional unit of 50,000 kilowatts at Dresser and it is expected that this uait will be placed in service during the fall of 1945. With this unit we will have 1S7.500 kilowatts of new capacity , placed in service during the period commencing . with May, 1941. Gross construction expendi
tures during the year totaled in excess of $7,000,000. ' "Regardless of how adequate and efficient our unit plant, the record established in 1944 has been possible only through the continued and loyal work of our employes. 531 of our em. ployes have how gone into the rmed forces of our country, increasing tine burden eff work on ' those remaining on the home front.
