No records are available of the number of people in jured - in automobile acci dents, but the figures would probably run . into several thousand. There are reports almost daily of: people who are seriously injured in wrecks that are in the most part due to careless opera tion of motor vehicles. ; In proportion to the num ber of automobiles in the State, the number of acci dents is somewhat less for last year than the previous twelve months.- In the. year beginning June, 1918, there were 79,576 automobiles in the State, and the registra tion thus far in the year be ginning June, '1919, shows there have been 1)1,492 automobiles licensed.
