He also submits a viewpoint of
the situation which he says is rare
ly considered, that of enginemen. In
their nerve-racking duties they should
be freed from the strain of having
sutomobilists race ever crossings di-
recly in front of moving trains, he
says.
since the benefits derived from
elimination Of grade crossings accrue
largely to the public in safety and
convenience, Mr.. Winburn proposes
that where the elimination of a cross
ing is necessary a plan be worked
out whereby the cost would be divid-
ed upon fair basis between the
ta2 payers who receive the benefits
and the railway.

the increasing use of the automobile
and the decreasing use of the horse

SEES CROSSINC
SAFETY IN CARE
That Is Only Way To Avoid
Grade Crossing Deaths, Says
Winburn

There is a great need for crusade
against the careless automobile driv-
er, according to statement from
President w. A. Winburn, Of the
Central of Georgia railway.
President Winburn says that the
elimination of all railway grade
crossings, although desirable, would
be impossible, that the elimination
of the 1857 crossing on the Central
of Georgia railway would cost fifty
millions of dollars. He says further
that the protection measures taken
by the railways fail to solve the
growing grade crossing problem be-
cause they teach the public that pro
tected crossings are safe, whereas the
reverse should be taught.
The only feasible plan to check
the growing toll of deaths, injuries
and losses to property at grade cross
ings, he says, is relentless campaign
to make drivers stop, look and lis
ten" at every crossing.
Mr.. Winburn points out that in
the four years, ending December 81,
1920, there were 1850 persons kill
ed and 1880 injured in automobile
grade crossing accidents in the Unit
ed States, and that during that time
80 persons were killed and 215 in
jured in such accidents on the Cen
trail of Georgia railway. He declares
that an analysis of the cases show
that crossings considered the least
dangerous actually proved the most
dangerous.
The Central of Georgia's executive
declares that one state or communi-
ty cannot, consistently demand that
its railway grade crossing be elimi-
mated, unless some means were pro-
vided whereby the same thing could
be done in other states or commune
ties.

BY ALBERT APPLE

AS the coal strike starts, the ma
tion has about 65,000,000 tons of
Dituminous above the ground and in
storage This is enough to supply
the country for at least two months,
at present rate of consumption,
which coal jobbers estimate at T.
100000 tons week.
In the final week of the bituminous
miners strike of 1919, open-shop
mines produced 5,811, 1000 tons of
coal. The strategy Of the union min
ers will center on unionizing the
open-shop mines.
Anthracite highly unionized. Strike
stops production.
Freight Traffic.
Railroads are moving about 80
cars of freight a week for each 70
cars during the corresponding weeks
of 1919. The gain is at least 100,-
OO0 cars week. Half of the gain
Is due to heavy coal movement,

More Steel Gains.
Plants OF the U. S. Steel corpora

the corporation in first two weeks Of
March booked orders 5 per cent in
excess of capacity.
Fuel Oil.
Oil men who are expecting sud
den pickup in the fuel oil market,
as a result Of the coal situation, are
apt to be disappointed. Fuel oil
stocks are burdensolhely big.
General oil outlook is better. Some
Of the pipe line companies in the
Mid-continent field which furnishes
The bulk of gasoline, are offering in

Prices Up.
Average wholesale prices advanced

the Federal Reserve board. This
