Established 1893 1010 Yates Street VICTORIA, B.C. Garden 7161 TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS One of the outstanding challenges to us all at the present time is the rising toll of death, injury and property damage caused through traffic accidents. Last year the number of reportable motor-vehicle accidents occurring in this Province was greater than ever before and during the first five months of this year such accidents have increased by 29.2% over the number recorded during the similar period last year. Investigation of the causes of such accidents discloses the fact that the majority of the same are the direct result of carelessness on the part of both motor-vehicle drivers and pedestrians. Unfortunately, it would appear that until such time as every motor-vehicle driver and pedestrian accepts his personal responsibility to obey the rules and regulations made for the purpose of protecting life and property, we shall continue to have this wanton loss. Your full co-operation and assistance in helping Z| put a stop to this condition is urgently requested. GORDON 8. WISMER, K.C. Attorney-General.
