Accidents in State Surpass Traffic Count for 1955 Traffic accidents and injuries in Oregon are running ahead of 1955 so far this year, the state traffic safety division reports from Salem. The state also has a 20 per cent increase in deaths for the first four months of the year. By the end of April, latest month for which accident figures are available, 19,953 mishaps had been reported. The total for the same period in 1955 showed 19,- 675. Those injured in acidents dur ing the first four months totalled 4,618 as compared with 4,319 last year at the same time. Division officials said the months ahead, when vacation travel is at its peak, may tell the story as far the state’s traf fic record for the year is con cerned. In an effort to reduce acci dents during this period, Oregon has joined in a nationwide traf fic safety program called "Slow Down and Live." Its aim is to re duce accidents traceable to what safety men call "in a hurry” complex which results in such violations as unsafe passes, fol lowing too closely and excessive speed.
