CHRYSLER BREAKS WORLD STOCK CAR RECORD
NEW YORK.’June 30 A total
of 370 Americans will die in high­
way accidents during the coming
three-day July Fourth week end.
according to a prediction released
today by the Association of Cas-
ualty and Surety Companies.
The Association's estimate,
based upon “a conservative ex­
pansion of the accident rates of
three-day Independence Day holi­
days in the past, “breaks down
the causes of the fatal accidents
into six principal categories.
Speeding is expected to kill 123
persons: excessive use of alcohol
will account for 82 more, both
motorists and pedestrians: failure
to keep to the right of the center-
line, 37 deaths; failure to yield
the right-of-way, 26 deaths; over­
fatigued drivers or drivers actual­
ly asleep at the wheel, 23 deaths;
miscellaneous causes, 79 deaths.
