URGES CARE BE USED AT RAIL CROSSINGS Tfl END FATALITIES

Tnere are two ways in -wmca we . 1 . a.i lllxl 1l .

large numoer 01 lataiiiiua resuiuiuv from accidents at railway crossings may be - eliminated, according to a

statement issued by the public relations department of the Chesapeake

and 'Ohio 'railway. These are: first,

in the public mind, the elimination of the highway crossings, and Becor.d, the

education of the public to exercise

care In the negotiation of these rail

way crossings. - " . It has been pointed out that during 1920, 1,791 persona were killed, and 5,077 were injured in the United States. Of this number 116 died subsequently from Injuries sustained at railroad crossings within the United States. In the same year automobiles '"ere involved In 76 per cent of all crossing accidents. This frightful number of fatal-accidents can be reduced or entirely eliminated If the proper precautions are taken, says. the statement. "The first way In which these fatalities may be eliminated, namely, the elimination of crossings Is entirely out of the question. Of course, the work of eliminating these dangerous crossings will continue as part of the safe

ty first program of the railroads, but, since there are 251,939 big highway

crossings on Class I railroads alone

in the United States and of this nun

ber only 399 were eliminated during

1919, and at the same rate of elimina

tion it will take 629 years to dispose of these crossings If no more are add

ed, it is evident that all the men and money available would not be sufficient to remove these crossings in a lifetime, and that the immediate problem must be met by some other solution. Solution In Education "The apparent solution of the problem can be found in education. This education should be joint upon the

It is the duty of the railroads to keep

the crossings in good condition for travel; give reasonable notice of the existence of such crossings, and see to it that the railroad employes do their full duty in warning of the approach of trains. "Since statistics show that' education in "and discussion of safety matters are responsible for the gratifying results obtained in the case of railway employes, it is logical to assume that education of the traveling public to the exercise of a high degree of care when approaching and passing over railroad crossings likewise will have a good effect in reducing crossing accidents. "It is the public which, in the first and last analysis, bears the great burden of the distressing number of accidents at the railway crossings- and

it is only just to expect that the public will not refuse to see its duty In this regard in the light of its true merit. It is expected that right-thinking people throughout the United States will lend their actual and moral support to the humane and laudable movement, the Careful Crossing. Cam- ' paign, and will aid in the dissemination of the spirit of the campaign slogan to 'Cross Crossings Cautiously'."

in making the award were efficiency,

range, receiving performance, obedi-'

ence to law, ability of operator, amount of traffic and completenes of the log. Falconi far surpassed every other contestant. This station has been the chief connecting link between the Mississippi valley and the Pacific coast for a long time, and was one of those establishing the six and one-half minute record across the continent and back, his station receiving and transmitting direct between Chicago and Los Angeles.

Lightning Arrester Dr. Charles Steinmetz is experimenting with lightning arresters by the use of a small 120,000 volt lightning machine. This apparatus stores up the

electrical energy and then liberates it suddenly with explosive force, backed by great power, exactly as is the case with lightning. Although as much as a million volts have been produced before, at Pittsfield, Mass., their discharge was accompanied by a current flow of only a fraction of an ampere. Dr. Steinmetz's apparatus is really a huge condenser, of 200 Immense glass plates. New Stations The new Australian station, which Is to transmit to England at one-thira

the cable rates, will have feeder sta

tions In every Australian state. The

equipment for these stations will be

made in Australia but that for the big

inter-communication by wired wireless. This will make it unnecessary for conductor and engineer to communicate by the old signal system. Another railroad in the west has proved the

! possibility of inter-train and station to

train communication by wire wire-! less through the use of telegraph and telephone wires parallel to the tracks. Geographical Aids The experiments by the Lackawanna proved that signals were louder near large bodies of water, still better at a height oa- a bare plain, faded in a for

est where high trees flanked the track, and in a tunnel beneath sea level, but were unaffected in mountain cuts and tunnels. A mountain between the ending and receiving station, however, weakened the signals. ' Suspend for Summer At the last meeting of the DX Radio club, it was decided to suspend activ

ities for the summer, the next meeting

being set for September.

The average yield for Fayette county has been set at 12 bushels an acre, three bushels less than the average for last year. Quince Ostheimer, crop reporter for that district, is the authority for this figure.
