The Buie Wreck

The appalling cost in lives in the wreck of
Atlantic Coast Line trains at Buie early yes
terday morning, whatever the final count
shows it to have been calls for the most
searching investigation, not that single VIC
tim can be restored, but that necessary safe
guards be set up to prevent similar wrecks
on any line anywhere.
Despite the storm, it is probable that human
error was the direct, If not the predisposing.
cause of the tragic collision. The error must
be discovered for the safety CT travellers in
the future, just as the diagpostican must find
the underlying cause Of disease in order to
treat it successfully.
One of the cardinal laws Of railroading is
that when one train is stopped for any cause
between stations or wreck obstructs the
second track, flagn1en must be sent out to
signal approaching trains with red flag by
day and flare by night. This may have been
done at Buie. The binding storm may have
made it impossible for the engineer Of the
approaching train to see the signal. It is
even possible that the wind extinguished
flare, though flares are supposed to burn in
heavy gales.
These are matters that can be determined
only by investigation, and if there was no
signal against the oncoming train it must be
learned why none was set. And If flare
was set and went cut, that must be learned
too, to determine whether it was faulty
product, and why; and also that scientists
may discover ways to combine chemicals to
resist the hurricane if flares now in use and
supposed to be inextirguishab!e do indeed 60
out in such emergencies as existed when this
wreck happened.
1t is not to be forgotten that, however Sc
we're the weather and trying the circumstances
at Bue the terrible sacrifice Of life would
not have resulted if the approaching train
had been brought to a stop before it plunged
into the stalled train.

Find The Japanese Fleet

It becomes more apparent as the days pass
that success in the Pacific hinges to a large
extent on our Nays ability to search out
the main Japanese fleet anr destroy it. It
is equally apparent that the Japanese have
no intention Of coming to grips with the Amer
lean Navy in big way and will employ all
their cunning in keeping their fleet safely in
hiding.
They are not unrnindful OF the rapid rise
in fire power Of the American Navy and know
that whatever superiority afloat they may
have enjoyed after their attack on Pearl Har-
Dor and the Philippines campaign has been
overcome. They more than suspect they would
meet defeat in any major engagement be-
tween their Navy and ours.
And as their navy is the chief of their
bulwarks against invasion they naturally will
avoid jeopardizlng it in battle a. long as DOS
sible. It would seem to be incumbent upon
our united naval and air forces IL the Pacific
therefore to press the attack. Secretary
Knox would not be justified in making
MS latest announcement Of impending mighty
blows il he had no information on the Japa-
nese fleets hiding place, whether at Truk or
elsewhere, and the intervening steps neces-
sary to take before blasting it out OF existence
II it is indeed at Truk, the Marshall islands
must be taken before our main fleet could
sail against it there. The increasing bombing
OF enemy positions in the MarshaIs might
be accepted as indicating this action is near.
But whether it is or not, or whether another
route to the enemy fleet must be cleared.
the thing to keep in mind is that the Ameri.
can Navy is now ready for combat with the
best Japan can send against it and the issue
is no longer in doubt.
