In Switzerland, money is spent to equip the
roads with every possible safety invention, so
that human lives may not be sacrificed.
In this country, it is cheaper to kill people
than it is to buy those safety appliances which
would prevent the butchery; hence, they are
not bought.
As long as the motive, in running trains, is
to make money, regardless of human life, so
long will we have railroads more deadly than
battles.
Judson Clements, of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, comments on the terrible
railroad situation, and declares that the Gov
ernment MUST control the railroads..
