Personal injuries will also show a considerable in-- ! crease, according to the stat-- 1 isticians of the Department of Public Safey. The 1935 increase is probably due to at least two significant factors, in the opinion of A LeRoy Taylor, 57 consult- ant-statistician of the U-t- Safety Council. He sug- gests that improved reporting accidents by officers and drivers involved is one fact- or and actual increase in ac-- 1 cidents is the other. The total number of reported mishaps in 1955 should be close to 17,500, compared with 15,100 in 1954. The council has previously estimated that the economic loss from such accidents amounts to ap- per cent of the 1955 accidents so far tabulated oc- curred in the states urban areas while about 80 per cent of the 202 traffic deaths occurred in the rural areas. Urban areas are defined as cities over 2,50 population Four cities, of over 5,000 the completed population, a death without traffic year and thus became eligible for a National Safety Council The cities are Brigham City, Cedar City, Spanish Fork, and Tooele. Three counties, Daggett, Morgan, and Wayne, were al-in 1955. so death-fre- e of j ing 1954. The report of arrests for 1955 covered violations of 37 different provisions of the fish and game code. The 511 tickets issued for failure to tag big game again made this provision the most violated of the code. A comparison with 1954 shows 516 arrests for this same offense. Twenty of the 57 offenses listed made up 85 per cent of the total violations. These were: failure to tag, 511; g without license, 113, failure to display license 106 fishing closed waters, 77, overlimit of fish, 58, hunting migratory birds with unplugged gun, 52; shooting from highway or car, 50, shooting after hours, 46; transferring license, 45; illegal possession of game animals, 40; shooting game birds out of season, 38, hunting closed area, 36. failure to wear red while hunting, 36, failure to check out on hunt, 33. shooting nongame birds, 29. non resident hunting with resident license, 29; fishing with set line, 27; carrying gun on a game preserve, 27; illegal possession of game birds, 25; polution of waters. 25. The courts dismissed 40 eases for lack of evidence or fish-,in- proximately $21,000,000. The 1955 record was compiled despite a greatly in- creased enforcement effort on the part of the Utah Highway Patrol, which issued 4200 more citations and warnings than in 1954. Traffic counts and gasoline sales have indicated a 6 per cent increase in Utah traffic in 1955, and this must also be considered a factor in the traffic accident jump during the year. total of 1654 arrests were made during 1955 for violations of Utahs fish and game laws This is eleven less than the 1665 arrests made durA j 15 J(, Funeral Services Held For Studies Continue Catherine Robb Trapping anti tagging operations to further determine range and migration routes of Utahs big game are being conducted this winter by lie department i f fish ami game A spokesm in said the vvoik was limited this year bv a lack of cold weather, snow, and other normal conditions for the season needed to attract the animals into the baited traps.
