ROUGH ROADS A SPEED VALVE Rough Railroad Crossings Advocate to Put Damper On Auto Speeders How would every motorist of Indiana like to have every railroad crossing in the state made so rough, and approaches to such crossings made equally rough, so that they could not drive faster than five to ten miles an hour at such points? Would this add to the necessary measure of caution so that motorists would be bound to approach all rail crossings slowly? These questions are pronounced by the safety department of the Hoosier State Auto Association. the Statewide organization of automobile owners and are based on the "hard boiled" recommendations of a well-known railroad executive who has been engaged In directing the "Cross Crossings Cautiously” campaign in Indiana during the past two years. The railway executive, in a letter to the Hoosier association says: "1 have given the matter of crossing accidents a great deal of thought and am firmly convinced that the only way they can be eliminated is to neglect maintenance on all highway for a distance of 300 feet on each side of the crossings and in the case of new hard-surfaced roads being built they should be corrugated for the same distance on either side of the crossing. A trainmaster once made the statement to me that the only thing in the world that all locomotive engineers will take their hats off to is a de-rail. I believe there is only one thing that all automobile drivers will take their hats off to and that is a piece of real rough road. If the roadway on each side of ' every railroad crossing is in such condition that they cannot drive over ■ it fJister than five to ten miles an hour, I think we will find that ‘we have solved our crossing problem." PARKING ON HIGHWAY Campaign to Stop Practice, Meeting With Good Results • Indianapolis, July 26. Ift ■ stab I highway commission's campaign being waited against parking on the traveled I road way is obtaining good results. I The public generally has responded to the requirements of the law that vehicles be not permitted to block the traveled portion of a road, and tea result traffic unusually heavy on som« of the major state roads is mov mg more freely and with less hazards A. H. Hinkle, superintendent of maintenance for tho state highwav department, says that local authorities ate co-operating with the commission. He is of the opinion that a few arrests in some localities will greatly help to make all observe this law. According to a report of accidents I kept in the commission's offices, fewer (accidents have occured since the safety <.im;>::igti -tarted. Commission members, however .point out that the highway department still has considerable work to do such as erecting warning signs against parking on extremely narrow section of roads. The law imposes a maximum fine of SSOO on one convicted of him king traffic on a public highway. I — a Interurban Power Off A brmil’ in a boiler at the power plant of the Indiana Service corporation in Fort Wayne Tuesday night, caused interurban service on the De-catur-Fort Wayne line to be halted for several hours yesterday morning and the city street cars in Fort Wayne, were stopped until 8:30 yesterday 1 morning. I Officials of the corporation stated , today that they do not anticipate another breakdown because of the fact that, the new boilers and generators are now being installed at the power house will give ample reserve power in ease of trouble. !

H. Hinkle, maintenance superintendent for the state highway commission, said today. Mr. Hinkle has frequently warned the public of the dangers at road in- , tersections, railroad crossings, sharp tarns, etc., by reason that a tall grow- . iug crop is left to mature in places . where sight distances of public roads . tie blocked, ami he is appealing to :at:d owners and tenants to harvest ■ this crop early and assist in making Hoosier highways safe to traffic. Acting on suggestions from officials many farmers planted low growing crops, such as tomatoes, beans, potatoes, cucumbers, etc., in the corners . where high growing crops would destroy view of the roads, it is noticeable. Mr. Hinkle says, that where , such crops prevail there are no acct- . dents. Once corn reaches maturity it completely blocks the view of traf- , fie on a road from traffic approaching f on tin intersecting highway and accir detits are invitable. This is also true , as regards sharp turns. , Many thoughtful farmers who are o operating to make highway traveling safer and more pleasant in. the • vent they did not plant low growing , crops, have notified the commission , they will this month cut the corn back tb<. fence corners for a sufficient dis t rom the fence corners for a sufficient . distance so that traffic may have tinI abstracted sight distances and thus go far to eliminate a situation that other- , wise wolild be a serious handicap to , road safety. o , GOT SHAVED.
