Abstract

Mortality in New York City from auto accidents increased 735 per cent in 1917 over previous averages, and 940 per cent in 1918. Figures are duplicated elsewhere. Dr. Byrne urges radical measures of restriction and calls for a campaign for standard regulations with real penalties. He considers education of pedestrians and children very necessary.
