Traffic Death Rate Checked Amid Rationing Effects
The National Safety Council reports February traffic deaths fell 8 percent to 2,380 from 2,590 in February 1941, ending 18 months of increases. If travel dropped only partly due to rationing, the total may still reflect high fatalities. 5,490 deaths occurred in the first two months, just 1 percent below 1941. Milwaukee and New York had high city rates. Oklahoma City and New Bedford posted perfect two‑month records with zero deaths.
