Tliiirftiln)', Jmiunry 3, jgej S3 IN line with new legislation being passed in the various Spates of the American Union aimed to diminish the alarming number of accidenti through reckless driving of automobiles, particularly on level railroad crossings, the Board of Railway Commissioners for Canada has requested the Canadian Pacific Rait-way to submit information bearing upon similar dangerous practices by motorists on various portions of its system so that use may be made of the information with a view to endeavoring, through education, tj minimize the occurrence of such dangerous practices. In a Bulletin issued by the Board of Railway Commissioners on June ISth, 923, 54 cues of danger at protected crossings are cited for the period October. 922, to May, 9i3, and of these fifty are declared to have been due to the carelessness of motor drivers. "Motor accidents," says the bulletin, "art becoming more frequent. Every sane motorist deplores this. If accidents are to be lessened, the sine motorist must educate the culpably negligent motor-ists." All highway crossings are by law protected by signs, and they are only dangerous when the driver of the automobile makes them so. They are not dangerous if motorists will take a small part of the care they exercise in turning on a city street. It is the motorist's carelessness that maVes them dangerous. The train has right of way. Everyone know what may happen if the plainly seen warnings are disregarded at a point where tbc motor car can stop while the train cannot. The surprising part of it also is that safeguards and precautions errrted by the railroids are so often entirely Tgri&rVif ' Time after time newipiprr reports show that cross ing -.'arm' bells.' barrier gates and even watchmen waving "stop" mi n.can rlo'.h'uc to the nun in the JAPAN WILL ADOPT JURY TRIAL SYSTEM Yamamoto Government About Introduce Many Reforms Industrial Insurance Scheme to TOKIO, Jan. a.

DOGS SAVE WATCHMAN FROM ASPHYXIATION When Smoke permeated Room, Faithful Canines Dragged Master From Bed MOXTIIKAI., Jan. 3.- lly drai'iK their sleepinii master from hh bed to I he floor, Iwo doffs snved the life of I), (iuuy. 1(5(1 years old, v1k would have perished from asphyxiation had he not Wen awakened by the fall ond thus enabled (o make his escape.

Coroners' juries are usually more discriminating and put .the blame where it belongs, but the gtntrat public, seeing the usual newspaper heading, "Train Crashes into Motor Car," starts out with the impression that the train must necessarily be to blame, when, as a matter of fact, a fairer statement of the case nould be "Another Auto Gets in Path ol Fast Train." "Quite as often, too. the heading should read. "Flying Auto Dashes into Moving Train." Fre quently the auto strikes the train well behind the engine, a convincing indication that the motorist too ire-quently treats the railrosd crois:ng with the same casual notice that he gives the intersection of a quiet country road. Out of 32 level crossing accidents that happened in Ontario daring 1922, 22 were the result of the motorist not heeding the stop signal and seven were the result of running into the lowered gates or actually pasting under them after they were !ofred or while they were being lowered. One man had no headlights and ip-parently did not see the gates were, down while the remainder in other ways tried to cross in front of the engine in order to save lime. In an editorial on this question. he Toronto Star says that: "In a rouo. try like this, with its magnificent distances, and railway systems with twenty thousand miles f track, the time may never come when all level crossings will be eliminated With motor cars in use everywhere there is no railway crossing so remote tut that a motorist may use it. It Is his business to see that he does so at I safe moment It is his basinet 'or two reasons: (1) because it is 'he presence of him and his car at ht time and place, and not the rom-ng of the train, which creates the risw jf a crash; and (2) because II there should be a crash he snd'bis car soil be crushed, and not the train."
