(Special?No single catastrophe in the United States last year approached the daily average of al nost 100 lives lost in automobile accidents, according to a new booklet entitled "Here Today?'* just issued by The Travelers* Insurance company. The booklet-is th? eleventh in a series issued annually aod presents a comprehen sive analysis of the facts about accidents in which 35,000 persons y/ore killed and more than 1,300, 000 others were injured in 1940. Automobile accidents on an average day last year took twice the number of lives lost in the Ken?'il, N. J., power blast, three times toll nf thn rolins hurricane, and four times that of the Tittle Falls train wreck or the Lovetsville airplane crash the report says. The number injured in traffic on an aver, age day exceeded the total casualties of the six major disasters of 1940 combined. "If fatalities make news," the booklet points out, "then the na tion's traffic death toll is the ban ne- headline story 365 days of ev cry year," The title "Here Today?"_Jnat.. urally suggests that it will bo "gone tomorrow" for those who continue to flout the traffic laws and Eule-s of safety in 1941. Then the familiar, saying is changed to a new lifO-saving slogan: "Care Today?Here Tomorrow" Tlif hlbrhts from tTte a;,nual report, based o official reports from the 48 states, include the fol Jewing interesting facts: Exceeding the speed limit was responsible for 40 percent of the fatalities and 26 per cent of the njuiies in 1940. Every third victim of a .-fatal | traffic acident last year was a | pedestrian. More than 97 per cent of all dr'vns involved in accidents had . a year or more of operating ex pcrienee. , Almost 86 per cent of all fatal accidents occurred in ' clear wea ther and almost 78 per cent hap. pe: ed when the road surface was . ..

Several ~ pager: "arc devoted to a vivid" de~ scription of the traffic "disaster which swept th? nation on that day when 85 persons were killed nno' 1.496 were critically injured. It is then pointed out that Octokrfer 4 was not unusual but a com . pletely average day in every resp.'d. and that the catastrophe was duplicated on October?3,?Oetol>er 5, and on" any day in 1940 ; which might have been named.
