State Railway Troubles

Complaints have been made for
some time past of the unsatisfactory
financial management of the Belgian
state railroads, and now the traffic
management also appears to have
broken down. From all parts of the
country there are accounts of delayed
passenger trains and of the detention
of consignments of freight for three
or four days, or even a week, because
Of the overcrowding of the lines. Va
rious causes are. assigned for the
breakdown-dis among the en-
gine drivers, malingering in view of
the fact that they receive full pay dur
ing illness, the substitution of mex
perienced men for the absentees, pro-
motion for political reasons, instead
of by merit, and the inefficiency of
the engines and rolling stock, or neg
lect to keep them in good condition.

Good Rule 70 EoIIo\u.

Half Of the fun of anything is look
ing forward to 1t, and the other half is
looking back at it; the climax, the
event itself, is merely the point at
which the two kinds of pleasure meet
in the middle.
Learn to go to your good Time, when
you have earned it, with the full ex-
pectation Of enjoying yourself; and
when it is over, let the happy memory
Of it keep coming back to bless and
sweeten the subsequent days.
To great extent, wherever you go,
you bring your own happiness with
you. You will have the best time by
giving it to others, contradictory as
this may seem. You will look back
with most satisfaction on the occasion,
when you were "the life of the party"
when you entered into the fun and
made most Of 1t yourself, and did not
sit back and expect to have it made
for you.

BIG FACTOR IN RAILROADING
Effective Work That Has Been Done
by the Master Car Builders
Association.

That every railroad does not live
unto itself alone is due in a large
measure to the work of the Master
Car Builders association. One could
hardly imagine the chaotic condition
in which we would find railroading had
there been no association to do what
has been done by the master car build
ers.
We all recognize the value of the
work Of this association Even the
United States government through it's
proper department and officials, has
shown that it appreciates the far
reaching effect of what has been ac-
complished.
The letters IN. c.. b." if they stand
for anything, stand for just that which
is opposed to chaos; and are synony-
nous with system, economy and oper-
alton.
Without the M. G. B. rules of inter
change, freight traffic would become a
tangle impossible of unraveling; with
out M. G. B. standards, the expense of
car maintenance would be doubled
without NJ c. B. recommended prac-
tice, not only would we be making
no progress, but as railroads we would
be going backward.

MEANS OUTLAY OF MILLIONS
What 1t Would Cost the Country's
Railroads to Replace Wooden
Cars With Steel Ones.

That it will cost the railroads s614,-
6l9,1OO to comply with the proposed
federal law requiring them to replace
their present wooden passenger equip
ment with steel cars is the statement
contained in a bulletin issued by
special committee on relations of rail-
way operation to legislation which
represents all of the leading rail lines
in the country.
The annual interest charge on this
amount at 5 per cent would total $780,
730,955. According to the committee,
the construction of wooden passenger
equipment practically has ceased, and
rapid strides are being made toward
fully equipping railways with either
steel or steel underframe cars.
Reports received by the committee
from 247 companies operating 227,754
miles of track, disclose that between
January L and July 1 of the present
year orders were placed for lao pas
senger equipment vehicles, including
postal, mail, baggage, passenger ex-
press, parlor, sleeping, dining and
business cars, says the Railway Re-
porter and Travellers News. Specifi-
cations for 1,064, or 933 per cent, of
these cars provide for all steel con-
structlon, while the remaining cars
have steel underframes.
A table prepared by the committee
shows that of 1880 passenger equip
ment vehicles acquired in 1909 by the
rail lines, 26 per cent were built of
steel, 22.6 per cent. had steel under
frames and 51.4 per cent were con-
structed of wood.
In 1912 the railroads purchased
1850 cars for passenger service, and
Of the total 6S.7' per cent. were of
steel and only 10.4 per cent of wood.
A comparison of the number of steel
passenger equipment cars in use Janu-
ary 1, 1910, and January /, 1918, shows
that there was an increase during
that period of 1.055 per cent.

HAS DONE GOOD WORK
RECORD OF THE "SAFETY FIRST"
MOVEMENT.
Not Alone on Railroad Lines, but
Wherever Hazardous Work Is
Performed, Employees Have
Been Quick to See Its Value.

When the safety first" movement,
adopted little more than two years
ago by one of our great railroad cor.
porations, has reduced by nearly %
per cent. the number of fatalities on
its line, is it any wonder that nearly
all the railroads in the United States
and Canada have kept it up and made
it watchword among their employees?
Not only on railroads but in factories
and iron mills, and, in fact, wherever
there is hazardous work to be per-
formed, no matter what the nature of
it may be, the movement is spread
ing.
The business of transportation re-
quires that more than ordinary pre-
caution should be taken to safeguard
operation from accidents, and while
In all railroad operation the safety of
passengers is the first consideration
the problems presented in protecting
employees in many respects are identi-
cal, and in safeguarding the latter the
safety Of the public is also largely Sc
cured. 1t is really not a question Of
safeguard, but more Of intelligent eau
ton constantly exercised
The aim of the safety first" move
ment is to teach each employe sense
of personal responsibility not alto
gether for his own safety but also for
the safety of his fellow employees. 1t
teaches every man in the service so
to safeguard the operation of the rail-
road that he works for that accidents
of every kind shall be as few as hui
man foresight can make them.
Workmen themselves are in a large
part to blame for the many accidents
when they do not exercise the care
and caution required to prevent acci-
dents. They should be taught to avoid
carelessness at all hazards.
Too many men in railroad service
care nothing for the publics interest
or their employers; all they seem to
think of is the least work, no matter
how it is done. 1t is this class of
men who are responsible for the aw-
full statistics which show that one
railroad employe out of every thirteen
and one trainman out of every eight
are killed in the United States every
year.
The problem of personal injury Is
complicated by the multiplication of
safety devices, for this average holds
good even when perfect equipment is
in use. Safety devices undoubtedly
help, but it must always be remem-
bered that the most important part
of the train service is the man behind
the steam power. 1t is the human
element that counts most in railroad
work
1t is the object of the safety first"
movement to reduce the number of
personal injuries among railroad men
by encouraging the spirit of co-opera-
tion between the men and officials of
the railroad companies. When rules
are drafted by railroad officials for
the safety of its employees, it is in the
long run to the advantage of the en-
ploye to obey them, although it may
seem at the time irksome.

To Make Travel Safer.

A new device for greater safety of
railroad travel has been tested by an
eastern line and the test is declared
to have been entirely successful. 1t
is, an airbrake system that can be
operated with either pneumatic or
electric control, and it can stop train
of II steel passenger cars and loco
motive, all weighing nearly 1000 tons,
running with a speed of 60 miles an
hour, within 1000 feet, or the length
of the train. Emergency application
of high speed brakes now in general
use would bring the same train to a
stop in 1900 to 1900 feet. 1t is
claimed for the new device that it
can stop the same train going at 80
miles an hour in 200 feet.
