RAILWAY ACCIDENTS IN 1914

Accident Bulletin SO Of the inter
state commerce commission for the
year ended June 80, 1914, shows that
there was comparative improvement
in the number of accidents on the
steam railways of the United States
during the year. The total number of
casualties for the year was 202,964. OF
which there were 1O,3o2 killed and
1852 injured. decrease compared
with the previous year of 662 in the
number killed and 1916 in the num-
Der injured 1t is to be regretted that
the claim of one or two Of the larger
roads Of the country that no passen-
gers were killed on their roads dur
ing the year does not apply to all
roads, for among the number killed
265 were passengers. Of the remain
ing number of killed 3,259 were en-
ployees and 6,77S were other persons
classified as trespassers and non-tres-
passers. 1t is astonishing to find that
doubling the number of employees
killed does not quite equal the num-
Der killed Of persons in no way con-
nected with railroad operation or
management Or travelling as passen-
gers. It is likewise surprising to note
that among the total casualties, 202,-
964, the killed number 400 employees,
and the injured 1924 from indus
trial accidents defined in the Bulle-
tin as accidents not involved in train
operation, but occurring to railway
employees, other than trainmen, on
railway premises" The total number
Of employees injured was 1922, the
number of passengers 1921. and the
number of other persons 1929. These
figures represent a decrease from
1913 Of 6,205 injuries to employees.
1,41S to passengers and 23 to other
persons, and of 456 employees, 1873
passengers and 6S other persons kill
ed Yet. in the opinion of The Jour
nal OF the American Medical associa-
ton, the vast and seemingly unneces-
sary disproportion between the en-
ployees and others killed and injured
who have nothing to do with operat-
ing Or riding on trains undoubtedly
calls for further improvement In oper-
ating methods, as well as for greatly
increased care on the part of both
employees and the public to prevent
the casualties which are unqMestion-
ably the result of Individual careless
ness.

JEWS TO OBSERVE
FEAST OF PURIM
On Account Of European Struggle, Day
Will be Sombre One-caiI
Is Sent Out,

On February 2Sth the Jews will OBJ.
serve the feast Of Purim. 1t is fes-
tival OF feasting and Of Joy, but this
year, in recognition Of the great Euro.
rean tragedy, the day will have a
more sombre significance and rather
than feasting 1t will be given to sac
rifce.
The American Jewish relief commit
tee for sufferers from the war, with
headquarters in New York, has sent
out the following call:
The Book of Esther commands that
on the 14th and 18th days Of Adam,
we make them days of feasting and
Of joy, and of sending portions to one
another and gifts to the poor"
Purim 1915 comes on February 2Sth
in the midst of one Of the greatest
tragedies that has ever overtaken our
people, Millions suffer in mental an
guish and physical want. The home.
less and those who are on the verge
of homelessness; the hungry and
those on the brink Of starvation; the
afflicted and the persecuted-to these
our thoughts must turn on this Purim
day.
To feast on this Purim day, obliv-
ious to the suffering of our brothers
and deaf to their cries for relief, is
to make ourselves like clowns with
tinkling bells.
We, who are at peace, should cele.
brate, but solemnly and with wisdom,
sending portions to the afflicted. send
ing ray Of hope to our struggling
brothers and sisters in Europe and
Asia, uplifting them by our sacrifice
and compassion.
Let this Purim day be set aside by
all Jewish communities throughout
the United States, as a day Of giving
without stint and of helping without
Ostentation.
This call Is sent out to American
Jewry that it act in unison and with
fervour; devoting its thoughts to
those whose suffering is too deep for
words. and a generous portion of its
material resources to those who hun.
ger and are in want.

Under the Frailey bill the governor

nually, and to name district election
commissioners, one to each county to
receive the same salary as the county
auditor. The duty of these commits
sioners is made to keep an accurate
poll list in each county.
Two weeks before general, spe-
cial or primary election 1t is made the
duty of the district commissioners to
send ballots to all the voters. On
election day the citizen would exer-
else his rights Of suffrage by marking
ballot and mailing 1t to the commits
sion to be counted.
