One Life a Day
/? Auto'n Toll \
The automobile killed 384 persons J
in South Carolina last year, an average
of mor^ than one person each
day of 1930, death statistics announced
yesterday morning ,by the
state board of health, reveal. The
gutomobi.le death toll was nearly seven
times as great as that of railroad
accidents and almost 100 more than 1
the total from general accidents.
The same statistics show that the '
automobile was accountable for more
deaths than typhoid fever, whooping
cough, malaria, diphtheria, diaowtea
add a host of other common ailments.
Its number of victims wasy exceeded
only by those of cancer and malignant
tumors, diseases of the circulaj
lion,' infl'uenia, intestinal diseases, ,
I parturition, pellagra, pneumonia, pre- (
/nature births, tuberculosis and infant
mortality. \
The total was an increase of 2D
over the 1929 total of .'158, although
fewer people were killed in the last
three mouths of 1930 than in the1
j corresponding period of 1929.
One of the largest percentage in- j
crease was in deaths from alcoholism'
which claimed 60 people in South '
Carolina in the year in comparison:
; with 41 in the previous year. In ad-'
' dition there were trwo deaths from
wood alcohol poisoning,
j The number of homicides dropped
from ?76 in 1929 to 243 last year but
the number of suicides increased'
from 95 to 118. ?4 of the suicides,
coming in October, November and
December. Drowning claimed1 * an
evg^TlOO lives in the year, 13 less
!than In 1929.
South Carolina did not have a f-i-j
tal''airplane accident in the year nor'
were any deaths- recorded as being!
caused by rabies, cyclone and tor-]:
nado accidents, typhus fever and un-1
dulant fever.
