This result is based on last-year's

figures for road accidents. Statis-

ticians analysed the chances of -receiving injuries, fatal, or other- wise, run by a typical American family of three chlidren.

The conclusion errs, if anything on the side of understatement, since only injuries necessitating hospital treatment were taken into account.

There were 35,000 deaths from motor accidenta in America last year. In other words, one person was killed on the roads every quarter of an hour.

Air Commodore Welah said in conclusion that his visit had been a great education. It was impos- sible to visualise in London just what was needed out here and the value of his first-hand inspection had been incalculable.
