    231 Traffic
Deaths Toll
For Holidays
By The Associated PrMi
The nation today counted up
181 deatln in traffic accidents
during the four-day Independ
ence celebration, but this toll
was far less than had been ex
pected and even considerably
below that for an ordinary four
day weekend period.
The national safety council
says 400 persons normally die in
traffic mishaps during an ordi
nary four days which included a
Saturday and Sunday. Weighing
this average to allow for extra
holiday traffic, the council had
estimated 450 would lose their
lives in road accidents from 6
p. m. (local time) last Wednesday
to 12:01 a. m. today.
However, several hours after
this period had ended reports
from throughout the country
showed a traffic toll of but 231.
. The council had predicted 1300
persons would die violently but
only 512 violent deaths were re
ported, including the traffic fatal
ities, 163 drownings and 118
deaths from miscellaneous vio
lent causes.
New York had more than any
other state a total of 37, with
17 of the fatalities the result of
traffic accidents. Road accidents
killed 16 in Ohio and 20 in Texas.
Michigan had 20 drownings, Cali
fornia 10. Delaware and Ver
mont had no violent deaths.
