Now York, .May -Automobiles
caused 11),000 deaths and injuries to
I->0,000 poisons in the l/iiited States
in 1021, statist its made public by thu
National Bureau "f Casualty and
Surety Underwriter'.s revealed today,
This i( picsiMit.s a daily averajfe of ?r>2
de ol and ?r?,<ir?0 injured.
Notwithstanding the <it??*t}? totai,
t.U' 'arjfOHt ever reported, the bureau
found 3J11s of encouragement in a
pvonotuK'tHl tall in the rate of in-'
, civtijie of accidents. The increase ii
the t urrbec of deaths in I02o oyer
figures foii' lttiJ2 was 20 per cent,
. whill the increase in 1021 over the
preceding year was only four per
cent. This reduction in tl^| rate of
ipeu a*e was attributed to organized
campaigns to reduce accidents.
A comparison of the automobile
death rate with the number of cai>
i( mistered, shows a steady decrease,
tin bureau reported. hi 1015, the
number of deaths for every 10,000
automobiles was 2 1, each succeeding
year showing a decrease until tin- tig
U.rcs for 102-1 indicate only 0.0 deaths
?for (very 10,(M>0 ears. There are now
17,r,00,000 cars registered in t-he Uni
ted States.
(Irade crossing accidents took a
toll of l,Gh8 dyaths, a decrease of 71
from the if2ft total.
o Sinee 1008 the death rate due to
motor ear accidents has increased
steadily until today automobiles cause
more death* than all other ' vehicles,
ine! titling trains and street ears, com
bined.
The Physician?(?<>d Bless Him

And then, with a quizzical smile he

The physician's words were worth
their weight in gold. They took fear

Largest Merchandising Houses Co
operate in LeHHcniiiK Crime
I "A growing sense of responsibilitv
!<-(? human welfare is seen in the
m m action of two of the huy.e t
merchandising houses in the world."
.Mr. Julius liosenwald, president of
Scyi s Koebuck Con\pany, which did *
j mail-order business of over two hun?
j drtd and fifteen million dollars in
general merchandise last year* gives
! as his reasons for discontinuing the
! sale of firearms, as a desire to abate
? crime, for humane reasons, as well
! as the desire to be law-abiding.
I Butler Bros,., the largest wholesale
mailorder house in the -world, whose
salt s of firearms in the fast ten years
amounted to !> 1,500,000 have also dis
continued sales of revolvers and pis
tols.
These facts are significant and it
is to be hoped that other, firms will
follow the action of the firms men
tioned, by eliminating from their cat
j alogucs and from their warerooms,
all Weapons of a dangerous char-ac
tor. There is little doubt but the
increase in crime has been made
easier, by the unrestricted sale of
such weapons.
While the sale of firearms to ir
responsible persons continues, the
menace and danger to human life will
continue, and the victims of the]
"empty gun" (?) will also increase.
There are many individuals today who
are regretting that th<?y did not make
sure the gun was not loaded before]
they pointed it at their victims.
Accidents and crime will be greatly
decreased when there is a nation wide
restriction of the sale of firearm.--,
as well as a heavy penalty for car
rying weapons without officiol per
mission. The teaching of humane
ness, Kindness to Every Living Crea
ture, will, when made a part of the
regular training (if ail children of
school age, furnish a foundation for
justice, fairness, and pity for all life,
both human and animal.

First came the antelope race follow

came the paper chase. Everybody
enjoyed this meeting and wo expect,
to have many more like it.
