Most of These, Report Shows, Are Caused by Careless Auto Drivers Harvest Toll Big Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 21. Nebras kans, observed the Nebraska Press association Thursday in its report on accidental deaths and inlury. are in far greater danger of maiming at the hands of motorists who are care less than are Chicagoans, who must dodge both automobiles and "pine apples" tossed by gangsters. And Governor Weaver, the com ment added, chose a Job harder than that of the Chicago crime commission when he called for an observance of "safety week." The association was moved to these rather incongruous comparisons, the author admitted, through the reali zation that 29 persons met acciden tal death, largely In r from automo biles, in the two-wetk period ending August 12. Total casualties for the period numbered 365 with a toll of 388 in jured, of whom 19 were permanent ly disabled, bringing the total of persons thus afflicted since Jan uary 1 to 263. The annual farm harvest brought its customary toll of accidents, 14 farmers having been hurt while at work with tractors, mowers, hay stackers and threshers, says the as sociation. Of the 12 fatally injured in auto mishaps, three resulted when the driver lost control, two were the outcome of collisions and four other? were caused by careles driving. Though auto cranking weather is still some weeks in advance, nine suffered broken arms trying to start their cars. 15 injuries were caused by blinding lights. Since January 1, last, 495 have been killed. World-Herald.
