Traffic Deaths in Iowa Projected to Reach 17 600 This Year

Iowa safety chief Russell I Brown warns that about 17 600 people will die or be injured in traffic this year by New Year’s Eve. He notes the toll could rival populations of Butler Cedar Delaware Sac counties and likens it to Keokuk’s entire city losing or being hurt in 12 months. He cautions little improvement in 1965 and forecasts another 17 000 plus victims in 1956 without a stronger safety program.
