Nothing cm Redone about ALL RIGHT, LOOK AT FIREWORKS The nothing - can - be - don -about-lters are the worst enemies of the automobile safety move ment. I always like to throw the Fourth ol July in their "laces. There used to be people who said that nothing could be done about the Fourth of July. They used to say that it was human nature for Americans to kill 3,500 of themselves with fireworks on Independence Day every year, and that "you can't change hu man nature." Now they say that It Is human nature for us to kill 36,000 of each other with motor cars each year. In 1934 there were TWO PEO PLE killed by fireworks on the Fourth of July; In 1933, seven; In 1932, ten. , Yet there was a time when fire works killed more people than automobiles.
