CALL CONFERENCE TO REDUCE
TERRIBLE AUTO DEATH TOLL
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 13.—
In an effort to decrease the appal
ling loss of life in traffic accidents,
Secretary of Commerce Hoover has
called a national conference on
street and highway casualties, to
met in Washington Dec. 15, 1G, 17.
Official statistic^ show that, in
1923, 22,878 persons were killed,
878,000 injured, and more than $600,
000,000 worth of property damage
caused by traffic mishaps.
Estimates indicate that 1924 will
show even a more terrible casuality i
list from this source, and Govern
ment officials deem it high time to
take steps to make the highways of
the nation less hazardous.
A number of committees of the
National Anti-Accident Organization
have held frequent meetings during
the past few months and have draft
ed reports to be submitted to the
national conference.

Secretary Hoover.
“In order that a national confer
ence on the subject might function
eight special committees on differ
ent important phases of the prob
lem, the representatives being chos
en from all parts of the country and
embracing representatives of the
police officials, highway and motor1
vehicle commissioners, insurance
companies, safety councils, chambers
of commerce, labor unions, automo
bile associations and various other
national groups.
“These committees have a mem
bership of 186 persons and cover the
subjects of statistics, traffic con
trol, construction and engineering,
city planning and zoning, insurance,
education, motor vehicles and public
relations.”
Reports of the committees will
soon be ready for submission. They
represent the most exhaustive at
tempt yet made to get at the caus
es and remedy for accidents, accord
ing to Hoover .
Officials pointd out that should
the death rate during the next seven
years increase as during the last
similar period the annual loss of
life would approach the total num
ber of American soldiers killed dur
ing the World wai\ The number 'of
injured is already almost equal to
that of the American war wounded.

STFvASSBOURG, Dec. 13.—Ten'^
1 years to a day since his departure
J fiom this city to join the German
army, Charles Wolff, first posted as
missing and later as dead, has re
turned to his home town.
In October, 1914, Wolff was called
up for service in the German army. ■
Ma le prisoner by the Russians a fewj
days after he arrived at the front,
he was sent as an agricultural labor
er to the Don district, where ha re
mained i.ntil peace was signed at
Bre t-I juvsk. He married a young
Russian woman and purchased a farm
in Siberia, 500 miles film the near

Ten years exile in Russia and Si

Wolff’s nationality, and the German
soldier who left in 1914 has now be

sume farming on the property of his
father at Marmontier, on the lower
Rhine, and has sent for his Russian
wife.
