BLUE BEST DANGER SIGNAL
Claim Made That Even TO the Color
Blind II Conveys a Definite
Warning.

A colored danger signal. consisting
OF a blue circle placed within a yellow
rim. Is being advocated Although red
is now almost universally used as a
danger signal Il is far from satlsfac-
tory for that purpose, since OF the 4
per cent OF all men who are defective
In color perception tho majority are
unable to distinguish red Yellow and
blue are the most luminous oolors OF
the spectrum. and combination OF
these colors can be- seen at greater
distance In daylight and Is more easily
distingulshable In poor light than any
single primary color or any other com
binatlon OF colors. In addition to this
is has been found by experiment that
this combination appears as red or
green to workmen who are unable to
distinguish yellow and blue, so that a
definite danger Indication is given In
any case.

WOULD FEED LECTURERS
TO POLITICAL LIONS

A certain representative In Con

MAN FAILURE.

gagged In discussing the Industrial
problems of the present day. In the
course Of the conversation some one
raised the question Of safety first
In travel, referring to recent railroad
accidents, and wondering II there
we're not some way In which to pre-
vent like catastrophes in the future.
One of the group, turning to the
others, said In substance: "The goal
Of safety In railroad operation never
can be attained solely through mod
ern safety devices. The only sure key
to the safety OF this problem is the
railroad man himself
"The right kind Of railroadmen are
not the product OF formal rules and
regulations, nor are they dependent
upon them. although they give them
due observance. The men, to whom
trains safely can be trusted are the
men whose characters are worthy
and whose conduct is reliable. We
need men today who can stand the
acid test. men with physical strength
unimpaired by dlssolute habits and
whose loyalty to trust is genuine
and iaatGngu
In these few words. this student
Of human nature summed up the
whole philosophy Of the successful
operation OF railroad The man
equation is the vital factor Man sue
cess means company success; man
failure means company failure
In these days industrial corpora
tions and civic communities are
working as never before for the pro
lection Of human life. Safety first"
has become a national slogan. The
one thing that is above all else fun
damental to safety Of pedestrian in
city or passenger speeding over shin
ing rails is the man factor.
Every student Of contemporaneous
history knows that back Of a major

postponement OF the antitrust bills

There was general sympathy with the
