Southern New England, served

Ignorance of the law may some

nature accepts no such excuses and

WASHINGTON. D. 0., Sept. 15.—
Comprehenslve studies of street ac-
cidents in connection with the traf-
fic and transportation survey now
being made in Washington. point to
numerous little-discussed factors as
having a considerable influence in
deaths. injuries and property dam-
age on America's highways.
All accident records of Washington
street car companies and bus oper-
ators. as well as those of the Police
Department. were thrown open for
the analysis by the engineers. who
are making the survey under the
direction of Maj. William E. R. Co-
vell of the Public Utilities Commis-
sion of the District of Columbia. and
consequently the figures represent
an exceedingly complete collection
of highway statistics.
Altogether 6.743 accidents were
tabulated. including both serious and
minor injuries to persons and to
property. '
It was found that between 8 and
9 at night the largest number of pe.
destrians were struck by automo-
biles. _
Motorists in greatest numbers
bump into fixed objects, such as fire
hydrants and trees. not in the liquor-
crazed hours of early dawn, but
from 11 o'clock to noon.
From 5 to 6 in the evening occur
tween automobiles.
"These statistics somewhat upset‘
the current belief that density of
traffic is the greatest cause of mis-
haps," said Maj. Covell today, “for

time of day on Washington streets is

By to Aid Suffering
even with more success in timsb of
peace.
In the struggles against disease
and the discovery of means of_
stamping them out. we must look
for help to the Modern Hospital,
with its properly appointed labor-
atories of chemistry, bacteriology,
and pathology. where scientific re.
search may be carried on so that
the human race may be the gainer
of its achievements.
The importance of the modern
hospital ‘in relieving suffering hu-
manity from the ravages of\diseua
can not be overestimated. Even the
development of our great scientists
and apostles of health such as Jen-
ner ,the discoverer of vaccination
against small pox; Pastuer, the dis-
coverer of the significance of hart-us
organism in nature and to prevent
their prohibition and Lister, the
so called father of modern Ascepue
surgery. and others. too numerous
to mention here. could not have
been accomplished without the hos'.
pital. and therefore the world would
not be free of the fear of many dis-
eases. No wonder that medical men
of all nationalties are holding those
names in reverence.
One of the most admirable fea-
tures of Medical history is the un-
selfishness with which the great
discoverers of medical truths made
their knowledge part of the public
treasure instead of seeking to mono-
polize it for private gain.
This new Hospital in Norwalk il-
lustrates the social and unselfish
side of those responsible for its
successful completion. The men
who work so hard and so faithful-
ly to bring into being this wonderful
institution will insist. I hope, that
these broad principles of universal
help should dominate and be its il-
luminating spirit. All those who
suffer from any ailment whatso-
ever may be brought to this hospi~
tal. This can not help but hays a
humanizing influence upon the en-
tire community. After all. drier—
ing is the common heritage of the
human race. Nothing is so certain
a sign of’our common brotherhood,
and what ever relieves this suffering
is another link in the chain that is
lifting us from the jungle to the fair
pleateau of enlightenment.
In conclusion. 1 will say, in behalf
of those who suffer that it is not

C. H. Markham. president. illlnois
Central System. in a statement ad-
dressed to the public, says:
“The railroads have been handling
the greatest volume of business ever
known. and their average rate level
is higher than in the years imme-
diately prior to our entry into the
World War. Because of the in-
creased volume of business and the
higher level of rates. the amount of
money taken in by the railroads is
of course greater than in our’pre-
war years. And yet the owners of
the railroads, the stockholders, are
not so well off today as they were
then.
"The reasOn for this is that the
increase in railway expenditures is
greater than the increase in rail-
way Vrecelpts. The amount of
money taken in by the Class I rall-
roads was $2,825,000,000 greater in
1924 than in 1910. But their pay-
rolls were tl,280,000,000 greater:
their locomotive fuel cost $187,000,-
000 more; their other materials and
supplies cost‘ $580,000,000 more;
their taxes were 8183.000.000 great-
er. .
“Including increases in other items
classified as operating expenses, the
total operating expenses and taxes
of the Class 1 railroads were 32.391.-
000.000 greater in 1934 than in 1910.
This means that, notwithstanding
improved efficiency of operation,
there was an increase of $102.80 in
operating expenses and taxes for
every increase of $100 in operating
revenues. As a result, the amount
remaining after payment of operat-
ing expenses and taxes was $66,000,.
000 less in 1024 than in 1916.
"Meanwhile. in the face of this de-
crease. the need for a. considerably
increased return and developed.
Between 1010 and 1924 the Class I
railroads spent $4,489,000.000—much
of it borrowed—~for the improve.
ment and extension of their prop-
erties. On this added investment,
it is immediately evident, not one
cent was earned in 1924: in fact. as
figures show. the return earned in
1924 on the basis of the 1018 in-
vestment was actually 866,000,000
less than was earned in 1916.
"The increased investment since
1916 has been of great and timely
benefit to the public. It has enabled
the railroads to expand their facili-
ing needs of the country and to
it has resulted in economics of
roads as a whole going concerns in

"Moreover, since interest charges

the owners of the railroads. despite
increases in both volume of busi-
ness and level of rates, are actually
in a less favorable position today
than they were before our entrance
into the war.
“Those who provide the facilities
for transportation service must. be
allowed an equitable share in its
rewards. The future of our nation
demands that there be continued
improvement and extension of rail.
way facilities as business grows.
and the money for this expansion
must come. even more largely in
the future than in the past. from
those who are willing to accept the
risks of ownership. This means
that the earning power of the rail-
roads must be safeguarded. There
is no other solution."
