RCMP officials yesterday re- ported that highway deaths the province for the first eight months of 1965 are down as com- pared to the same period last year.

Robert Wil- liams pointed out, are only for the territory covered by the | RCMP and so not include traffic j deaths in Charlottetown and Summerside. | However, with the totals from those urban centres the overall jpicture is even brighter as the jdeath toll’ went down just 50 per | ; cent from last_year’s reported 26 ldeaths to only 13 so far in 1965! for the entire province.
