The Texas Health Department flags fatal accidents as a leading Texas cause of death with 4600 deaths last year. Motor vehicle crashes top the list, but falls, fire, burns, and drowning also contribute. Texas farmers are urged to boost milk by 162 million pounds and eggs by 18 million dozen as part of a defense food production plan announced at Memphis. County boards will assign local goals and mobilize farmers to meet defense production targets.
