ASKS A PARTY CONVENTION
Massachusetts Candidate FaNors ;
 Pre-Primary Meeting.

Springfield. Mass, May 3.--Because he finds that the application Of the present primary system is expensive, Joseph E. Ely will try to demonstrate that a man need not be million aire to be nominated for governor by one of the great parties, He is candidate for the democratic nomina- ton. Ely declared yesterday that he would seek to have the state commit tee call a pre- primary convention to discuss candidates and formulate platform.
 Under this plan the customary state convention would take the form of ratification meeting. Ely declared that his suggestion was not in derogation of the direct primary. but rather in aid of it. He said that under the present plan the nominated candidate frequently found himself standing on a platform that he did not approve. Also he complained that candidates were left to wage their own battles and each was compelled to organize statewide personal machine.

TRAVELLING HAZARD
 0F THE RAILROADS
Loss of Life Mostly Fault of Care
 less Passengers

The department of the travelling public has greater influence on rail- way safety than is generally known, and the Safety Section of the Ameri- can Railway Association in an appeal for the conservation of human life and limb gives some Illuminating facts on the subject.
 Of the 229 fatalities occurring in railway passenger travel during the year 1920, about two-thirds were cases in which the individual himself was in some way involved in the chain of circumstances. For example, 2S per- sons were killed by falling from coach steps, IS by falling from moving trains, GA by being struck or run over, and 10 met their death by deliberately jumping from trains while mentally deranged or to escape penal servitude. More startling still is the fact that 6i passengers were killed and 1929 in- jured in getting on or off moving and stationary trains.
 Once seated inside a railway car the traveller is in about the safest place in the world, and it is generally his own acts in gaining or leaving such position that create any substan- tial hazard Notwithstanding the wonderful safety of passengers on the power of each of the billion travellers carried annually to make himself still more safe by being careful.
