Raleigh, Jan. 15—The automobile exacted a toll of a life a day in North Carolina last year. Figures compiled by the vital statistics bureau of the state board of health list 365 deaths from motor and grade crossing accidents in 1925.
The last month of the year set a record for automobile fatalities with a list of 45 deaths. Five of the deaths were the result of grade crossing accidents.
