Speed Mania.

sons, father, mother and their four
children, was in collision with a
Pennsylvania express train going at
the rate of sixty miles an hour at
Absecon, New Jersey, June 10. Every
person in the automobile was killed.
An entire family was exterminated.
After an exceptionally searching in
vestigation an Atlantic City coroner's
jury has placed responsibility for
the tragedy on the driver of the car,
the unfortunate husband and father
who, with all the members of his
immediate family, was slain. "The
deaths were caused in this case," the
verdict reads, ''by an error of judg-
ment on the part Of the driver of the
automobile"
The most remarkable detail of the
testimony given at the inquest was
the statement of the engineer of the
train that he knew nothing of the
disaster until he reached Philadel-
phia. He saw no automobile at the
crossing; he knew nothing of strik-
ing one. He insisted that his engine
did not hit the automobile, and swore
that the automobile must have hit
the engine.
This opinion was confirmed by the
discovery of a dent in one of the
locomotive cylinders. In this testi-
mony the train conductor fully con-
Cured
The engineer further testified that
he blew his whistle five times just
before reaching the crossing, that
his engine bell was ringing and that
the crossing electric warning bell
also was sounding. The tragedy oc-
Cured in a fiat country. Vision of
the track in both directions from the
highway is unobscured. That the
approaching train was not seen by
the driver and occupants of the auto
mobile seems incredible. Yet IL the
train was seen by the driver of the
motor the appalling risk was taken.
With his own and the lives of all
those dearest to him at stake he took
the chance of reaching the crossing
ahead Of train sweeping toward it
at mile minute speed, and lost.
This is by no means an isolated
instance Of such recklessness. All
the safety devices conceivable, short
Of absolutely impervious crossing
barricades, are futile. Experience on
the Long Island, on the lines of
which in a single year 300 grade
crossing barriers of heavy construc-
tion were smashed by speeding motor
drivers, proves this. Even with
crossing watchmen on duty and the
ordinary barriers down there is no
assurance that reckless drivers will
not ignore both.
Error Of judgment" is hardly an
adequate Characterization of such
cases. Absence Of all judgment, that
strange obsession which apparently
seizes and overmasters some men of
otherwise sufficiently we'll balanced
intelligence when they are driving
car. would be more accurately de-
scriptive.
Obviously persons subject to such
alterations are as unfit to run car
as is a drunken man. Yet how are
they to be segregated and barred
from the road? II is psychopathic-
Legislative problem which up to the
present has defed solution.

The New Rail Wage Cut.

The new railway wage cut, esti-
mated at $27,000,000 year, is small
compared with the previous cuts ap-
proximating $100,000,000. Yet, at
that, the $27,000,000 to come off the
payrolls Of clerks, station men, &C.,
may give the roads much more flnan-
cial relief than the far bigger sum
represented in the wage reduction
of shop workers and maintenance of
way workers.
The reason for this, as before ex-
planned by THE New YORK HERALD,
is that the American railroads as a
whole need to put great deal more
money into the rehabilitation of their
roadbeds, rails, ties, ballast and
everything, than will come off the
existing maintenance Of way payrolls
on July 1 by the wage cut there.
They need to put a great deal more
money into the restoration of their
crippled rolling stock than is repre-
sented in the shop wage reductions.
The railroads need to do this i'm
mediately and they will need to do
it for years before they can get back
into the physical condition they had
maintained until Government opera
tion we'll nigh wrecked them.
The mischief worked to the physi-
cal properties under Government op-
Grafton was not merely that needed
repairs and other maintenance work
were grossly and dangerously neg
lected. There was the further in
jury done the roads in getting the
labor costs of that kind of work so
highly inflated under Government
operation and getting the personnel
engaged so Indifferent to efficiency
that when the roads were returned
to their owners they could not find
the money to pour into the work
which had been made prohibitively
costly by the agreements and work
ing conditions set up under Govern
ment operation and only now being
slightly mitigated by the private
management under the restrictions
of the United States Railroad Labor
Board.
The railroads ought to plow back
into the properties all the money that
comes off the payrolls in the depart;
ments of shops and maintenance OF
way, and most of them will do that
very thing.
There might be chance, on the
other hand, for the roads to make
clean saving out of the $27, 900, ,00O
year to come off the payrolls of
the clerks and station men if they
wanted to save it all. AS a matter
Of fact, however. many of the roads
will be glad enough to have that
money also to put into the every
where overdue, in some instances
desperately needed, repairs and re-
/ construction.
Meanwhile the real hope of the
| American railroads digging them
selves out from under the financial
cavein that crashed upon them with
Government operation rests is their
ability to get square days work
done, as it used to be done, by man
paid to do square days work. The
/ 100000 extra men that the Govern
ment administration threw upon the
railway payrolls did not improve the
service; on the contrary, demorali-
zation of the working forces set in
at once. But the overmanned pay
rolls did burr the railroads under a
crushing mass of labor charges, and
the national transportation system
never can become itself again until il
gets back on solid basis of work paid
for only IL it is work that is done.
