________________ JAINA DOCTRINE OF AHIMSA motor cars and machinery the loss of life from attacks from wild beasts has always been insignificant. The Sunday Express dated the 20th April, 1930 pointed out that over 5 million and a half casualties occurred in Great Britain in the period from 1918 to 1928. There are thousands of fatal accidents every year, and there are accidents on the hunting field also. I do not think animals can ever be said to have caused so much loss of life as the motor vehicles and machinery and mines have caused and are causing every year.
