accuracy for example the mortality tables prepared by actuaries are so ac curate that they tell us within a decimal point the number of deaths which will occur during a specified time in other words out of a hundred thousand people we may he told the exact number who will idio during a given time similarly the number of motor accidents may be anticipated if during 1933 motor accidents caused the death of a thousand people then we may reasonably expect an other thousand to die during 1934 however we do not find the same accuracy in percentages when deal ing with death all men must die but all men will not be involved in a motor accident at the same time we may secure a fairly clear picture of the future in the accident field by looking at the past when repeal was enacted some months ago in
