SAFETY FIRST" PAYS.

The Pennsylvania Railroad company
has been working SO perslstenty on
the safety first idea that for the
first six months of 1914 It carried
sT,0oo.o 900 passengers and not one
cf them was killed. The record for
1918 was equally good. or the 1907
o00. 900 passengers carried during
that year not one lost his life.
The PENNSYLVANIA railroad has H.
7ss miles OF road and 2e.tes miles
LEI track. More than $4,000 passen-
ser trains operate on these lines each
month---no less Than S,see each day
50 that the record Is indeed a re-
mafkahle one.
The idea Of not killing passengers
has been the special pride Of the
Pennsylvania management, and Il Is
4 popular one with the passengers,
too.
All Of which goes to show what a
road may do when II sets out to make
a record on safety FIRST rather than
on the matter Of dividends first,
though on the latter the pennsylva-
mia Is not backward.

THE SILENCE or THE NAvIEs.

While the movements OF armies are
chronicled daily with more or less ex.
actnesE, the history OF the navies OF
the confending powers in Europe con.
tinues to consist Of extended pages OF
silence. Numerous rumors and reports
have floated into print. but there has
been nothing Of real substance except
the accounts Of the destruction of the
koenigin Luiso ard the Amphion
That this should be the case astonishes
no one at all acquainted with naval
methods.
Armies operate In the sight OF men
and 1t is impossible 10 keep all their
movements In secrecy. But once a fleet
Is out of sight Of land, even In these
days Of wireless teIegrnphy, no one
knows what II Is doing till results are
officially reported Most Of the So
called wireless messages picked up
by merchantmen az sea have been on
their face mere creations OF that heat
ed imagination which still cherishes
the sea serpent myth. Navy communi-
cations are made invariably in code in
times OF war and most OF them even
In times of peace. without the pos
session OF the code signal book of the
sender no person can translate a ma
val message. The principles applied
to the deciphcring of ordinary codes
cannot be applied TO this. The naval
wireless keeps LIS secret.
Meanwhile II may be safely assumed
that the British channel squadron Is
performing the important duty for
which II has always existed. The land
ing Of the British army force on the
continent Is proof that this is the case.
The German warships may not be
completely bottled up and reports of
damage wrought along Russian coasts
may be true But while the kaisers
are compelled TO confine
their activities to throwing shells into
Cronstadt and other nearby ports no
serious damage can result TO the cause
OF the allies. II the operations in the
Baltic could preface or cover the land
