Uniform Warnings At Railroad
Crossings.
Uniform


At a meeting of the National AS
-sociation of Railway Commissioners
held at The Congress Hotel, Chicago,
ILL.,, June 28th, 1916, the Special
Committee on the Prevention of
Accidents at Grade Crossings, pres
ented recommendations which if
generally adopted by the Public Ser
vice Commissions and the Railroads,
will bring about a uniform system
of warnings at every railroad cross
ing in the United States There are
in use at present num5er of diff
ferent kinds of signals and warnings,
predominant color, in other cases
green, in still others white. Under
the new system, the automobilist
from Maine when he travels in Cali
fornia will find the same uniform
of signals in use. In the past signals
have not always been understood and
accidents have occurred where white
flags have been waved, because
drivers have interpreted white flag
as a signal of warming The supreme
necessity for this step towards great
er safety is made manifest, when for
the year ended June 30th, 1914
1147 persons were killed, and 2935
persons injured at grade crossings in
the United States.
The first recommendation consists
in establishing cautionary sign on
the highway at least 800 feet from
the railroad tracks. This sign is in
the form of a circular metal disc "a
inches in diameter, with black letter.
'R. r." inches h'gn. "a inches
wide painted on white field above
the horizontal arms OF cross, the
cross being black 21s inches wide,
forming the two dirmeters of the
circle. The disc will have a blac'
border inch wide. This disc will
be placed on top of a pole s feet
high at the right side Z. .:Ic nigh
way, and will be lighted at nights.
At the crossing itself, it is recon-
mended that the use of flags by cross
ing watchmen be discontinued, and
that instead he hold aloft uniform
white metal disc 16 inches in dia
meter with black border, with the
word Stop" painted across the
center in black letters 5 inches high
and y inches wide, both sides of the
disc to be the same.
In addition, it is recommended
that all crossing gsJes be painted
with black and white stripes. Thus
it will be seen thai tne entire color
scheme is write and black. The
reason for this it is stated is. tha-
these colors are much more coaspi
cious, tests proving that they are
visible at greater distance than 2
solid color, and in addition are les
confusing to the engineer in the cab,
whose eye is apt to be wrongly warn
ed by the color red, which is at pres
ent the predominant warning color
at crossings.

As result of injuries he received
when struck by an automobile driven
by Fred Sudlow, 1906 Eleventh ave
nue.. Rock Island, Alfred Root, 10
year-old Silvis boy, died at midnight
in the Moline city hospital. The acct
dent occurred at 9 last night at First
avenue and Fourth street. Silvis. 1t
is said that Sudlow was not driving at
an excessive rate Of speed and that
he could not well have avoided the &C
cident.
Immediate cause Of the boys death
was broken blood vessel in his chest.
The case was peculiar one from a
surgical viewpoint. The Root boy was
struck only by the fender of the car
and was thrown backward, the wheels
not passing over his body No internal
organs were seriously injured
The automobile driven by Sudlow
was OF the heavy touring type. The
machine was moving west on First
avenue. The boy ran out into the
thoroughfare as the car approached
the Fourth street corner, according to
story Of those who arrived on the
scene directly after the accident
The boy was struck by the fender
of the car upon the chest and was
thrown back, unconscious. He recov-
cred to certain extent in a few min
utes, however, and was conscious on

ROBINSON CORNER IS
LEASED TEN YEARS

One of the principal real estate
transactions in Rock Island since the
first of the year was the leasing today
of the premises at the southwest cor
ner of Eighteenth street and Second
avenue, formerly occupied by the Rock
Island National bank and the Central
Trust and Savings bank to the Daniel
Hayes company. These quarters will
be used by the Daniel Hayes company
as Offices The lease to the company
was made by F. X. Rhoads for Mrs.
Mary Z. Robinson and is for a period
of 10 years. The term rental is $46.-
200. The rooms below the bank floor
are now occupied by William Emig
and H. X Walker.
Property values in the central bust
ness district as determined by their
income power are usually considered
one of the best barometers of the
growth or decline of a city. In this
connection it is taken as a strong indi-
cation Of the city's growth and pros
perity that the rental paid by the
Hayes company under the lease closed
today exceeds by more than 40 per
cent the rental under the previous
lease held by the banks
Mr.. Hayes stated that the company
would move from the Safety building
into its new location as soon as pos
sible after June /, when the necessary
redecoration will have been completed.
It is understood that the Robinson
estate had contemplated remodeling
of the bank corner by which the floor
would be brought to the level of the
street and new display windows for
shops be installed, but Mr.. Hayes stat
ed that the premises as they stand fur
nish very satisfactory arrangement
for the offices of the company and that
few changes were to be made
AS the lease of the bank did not ex-
pire until next January this corner has
been unoccupied for the past year
since the Central Trust and Savings
bank removed to its own new building,
a block south.

First hOnOrs In the annual grade

their permanent possession. Nearest
competitor was the Grant school team,
which annexed u points. Willard,
Garfield and Mckinley each made g.
In spite of the walkaway for first
place the race for second place was
keen enough to keep the spectators
interest at high pitch. Four were tied
for second up to the relay race, which
was one Of the last events. Mckinley
boys decided not to enter this and the
Grant team took the nine points Of
fered.
The Y. M. C. A. tank was used for

will again be posted next season, the
aquatic meets having proved popular
with the boys of the grade schools.
