TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS KILL
MORE PEOPLE IN 1950
Tentative figures compiled by
the secretary of state's office re
veal that Oregon's 1950 traffic
death toll reached 406, a 14 per-1
cent increase over 1949, Secretary
of State Earl T. Newbry said.
The figure nearly equals the I
419 deaths of 1948 and it could
surpass that figure if delayed
reports are received or if injured
persons later die.
The year also saw a new all
time high in the number of acci
dents with 68,000 taking place on
Oregon streets and highways.
Automobile mileage, gasoline
consumption and motor vehicle
registrations kept pace with ac
cidents as an estimated 10 per
cent more vehicles were in use
than during 1949.
