ly, hospitals. and if the locality hap
pens 10 be one where the railroad
performs a considerable number of
shifting operations. the ringing bell
produces a most unhearable situa-
ton. In such a place signal Of the
silent type is the only enc which
ought TO be used and We have tried
to exercise care in the installation of
signals and 10 provide at various
localities the type best adapted TO
use in that locality.
The suggestion of the Maine Cen
trial Railroad is that there should be
as near uniformity IN the character
OF grade crossing protection as is
possible. To illustrate what We
mean. lei il be said that the railroad
companies and the commission are
not in disagreement upon the prop
csition that if the conditions at par
ticular crossing require gate pretec-
ton during Il considerable portion of
the day and night, that form Of pro-
lection should in most instances be
given during the passage of all trains
for the reason that the outstanding
arms of a gate which is sometimes
used during the passage Of a train
and otherwise not SO used. is n Il
way an Invitation - a Traveller 10 go
over the crossing and a partial as
surance that no train is approaching.
The commission should not be I'M
derstoed as in any way meaning that
a traveller should attempt to 20 over
a crossing without fully informing
himself as to dangers which can be
ascertained.
The expense Of operating gates
during either 16 or q hours is. un-
der the present conditions, very con-
siderable Formerly gate tenders

much lower than at present Now

tinuous protection lis to be given il
means three crews. In some loCali-
ties where gate protection has been
given only a part of the time. and
where it was not reasonable or
feasible 70 extend that protection
during the passage of all trains. the
commission has found that protec-
ton by the automatic signal was not
only ample but in some instances
better and in all instances as good as
the partial gate protection.
We therefore have substituted in
some instances automatic signal
protection for gate prot The
suggestion of the Maine Central
Railroad Company is slat il is the

Gus ways for the better protection of
persons using the highways and
riding in trains at grade crossings
This commission was clothed with
great power in the matter and
charged with the performance of
very important and far reaching du-
ties. Before issuing any orders. we
made a careful investigation of each
grade crossing in the State. gave
careful consideration of the various
kinds of protection which could be
given and which were needed nj
various places. and when our gen
eral order was finally issued in the
fall Of 1917 we left matters in such
shape that upon proper proceedings
the protection given at any particu-
lar crossing might be changed as the
circumstances seemed 10 require.

crossing protection in all Of the
states. SO thar an individual whose
residence is in California and who
chances 70 be travelling by auto
mobile over the highways in Maine
will see the same fnrm of crossing
protection within the state he is Wis
iting as he sees in his own state. and
he will thereby be given ample no
tics and warning of any danger
which may exist; and TO more fully
bring about this uniformity II 10
suggested that. inasmuch as the bell
signal cannot be used in some places,
and tina signal of the silent type may
be used in all places. that the silent
type Of signal should be universally
used, and the bell attachment
definitely abandoned.
We have given this phase of the
matter very full and careful con-
sideration. We have discussed the
matter with various people. and have
made very many personal obserra-
tons. II is our conclusion and be-
lief that however desirable it may
be to seek and finally secure uni
forrnity, il is not at this time safe to
entirely eliminate the bell feature of
the automatic signal. There are
times and places when the ringing
bell viii direct ATTENTION and prevent
an accident where the waving arm
or flashing light may not be seen.
The use of the closed AUTOMOBILES is
increasing, and the number of pep
pie who now ride with their tops up
is also increasing.
Some Of these closed cars are 50
fashioned that the driver would not
he able 10 see the flashing light or
the swinging arm when he was
within 100 or 200 feet of the crossing
unless he leaned forward or to one
side, and looked carefully. It is his
duty To do 50, but as we have many
times remarked. it is a part of our
duty 10 protect the foolish from the
results of their folly II is equally
difficult for a driver IN an automobile
with the top UP TO at all times see
the silent type of signal. Fearing
that the elimination Of the bell from
The signal may result in some acci-
dent which might have been pre-
applied and in use, we do not feel
justified in adopting these sugges-
tions of the railroad in this instance
We do. however. say that we fully
appreciate the benefits outlined by
the railroad company in it's suEEes-
tiuns. anu believe that the sole OBJ
ject of the company is to obtain not
only uniformity but as good protec-
ton as is possible.
In ordering further automatic
signal protection, we shall endeavor
to carefully take into account the
necessities of the particular place
and eliminate the bell wherever it
is safe to do SO. II is not improb-
able that the time will come when
users of the highway will be amply
protected by signals Of the silent
type. We do not, however. feel that
the time has vet arrived.

not adopted and no modification of
