German public opinion appIauds the
harsh sentence Of twenty-one months
imprisonment and hard labor indicted
on the motorman of the electric sub
way train responsible for the disaster
last September in which nineteen lives
were lost, a Berlin correspondent OF
the New York Times says.
The sentence exemplffies the German
theory that criminal negligence re-
quires to be punished TO the full ex-
tent Of the law In all cases as a terri
BILE reminder TO all persons whose oc-
cupation has to do with the care OF
human lives.
The motorman In question submitted
defense which would have cleared
him in an American court. but be was
made martyr Of the immutabse Ten
ton practice of holding somebody re-
sponsIbIe for every accident that oc-
ours on railway lines and publishing
him I'm accordance with the damage
done.
The result Of this system is a maxi
mum Of care and precaution, which
makes travelling on German railways
safer perhaps than on any other great
trunk liues In the world. No accident,
large or small, Is ever permitted to
pass without the most rigid investiga-
ton, and the cause and culprit are al
ways detected and penalties invariably
inflicted. This is the rule whether ths
lines are owned By the state or pri-
vate corporation. The motornan. who
has just been sentenced. was an EN-
ploye Of private company.
