Nation's Traffic
Toll Climbs To
14,720 for Year
By UNITED PRESS
The nation's traffic toll climb
ed at headlong pace toward a
new record today, spurred up
ward by a flurry of multiple
death accidents.
Safety experts, studying rec
ord-breaking figures for the first
five months, predicted the pos
sibility that motorists would set
a new high In traffic fatalities
this year.
The National Safety Council
said last month was the blood
lest May in history with 3,170
persons killed on the highways
compared with 3,100 last year.
Year's Total 14.720 6
This pushed the year's total
to 14,720, 9 per cent above the
five-month figure In 1955.
A safety council spokesman
said the climbing death rate may
also mean the July Fourth holi
day will produce a tragically
heavy toll.
He said about 80 persons could
expect to die on a Wednesday
during almost any Cher week.
Memorial Day, however,
brought 56 per cent more deaths
than on a normal Wednesday,
he said.
Accidents In which several
persons died together accounted
for a considerable number of
the national toll. Mishaps such
as the April 6 collision of a
truck and a farm tractor near
Normal, 111., which killed eight
- farmers, sent the national toll
rocketing upward.
Killed by Trains
Two train-auto collisions kill
ed 12 persons in Ohio. Six died
Thursday when a train struck
their auto near Hamilton, Ohio,
after another train killed six in
a car near Elyrla.
Also Thursday, two women
and two children died when a
truck smashed broadside into
their car near Barrington, 111.
Safety co-mcil officials said
the increased deaths could not
be blamed on greater travel
alone, because the deaths are oc
curring faster than the mileage
is Increasing.
During the first 'four mouths,
council spokesmen said mileage
Increased 8 per cent, but the
traffic toll went up 10 per cent.

Legislative Move
Eugene (U.R) Robert D.
Holmes, Democratic candidate
for governor, said last night that
the Rural Electrification admin
istration program faced frustrat
ing legislation on state and fed
eral levels.
Holmes criticized a move In
the Oregon legislature to put
rural electrification coopi on
the same tax schedule as private
utilities. He warned that such
a move would be made unless
Democratic administration was
elected next fall.
Holmes said state tax increases
would boost cooperative electric
rates to the point where much
needed rural development would
be slowed down.
