THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1930 PAGE NINE ENFORCEMENT OF ROAD LAWS URGED Hon. J. E. Perreault, Minis- ter of Roads, Appeals For Safety AT SAFETY LEAGUE Decrease in Grade Crossing Accidents Noted During Past Year Montreal, Feb. 6.--Need of im- proved traffic regulations and en forcement of existing traffic laws was stressed by Hon. J. E. Per- reault, Minister of Roads, in an address on "The Value of Safety" before the Province of Quebec Safe- ty League at the Mount Royal Ho- tel Friday. E. J. L'Esperance, presi- dent of the league, was in the chair, Official figures, Mr. Perreault stated, show that in Quebec, grade crossing accidents decreased consid- erably in 1929 due to preventive measures advanced by the Province of Quebec Safety i.eague and en- acted by the Provincial Govern- ment. While 39 lives were lost in the first five months of 1928 only nine were reported for the same period in 1929. Industrial Age "We are living in an age of in- dustry and machinery, when ever increasing speed in production and transportation is of paramount im- portance," said the speaker. "Hu- man life, it seems, is of secondary importance in man's mad rush towards an indefinite and uncer tain goal aimed at in the short est possible time and at any price. Today, the machine rules supreme, In the shop, on the road and even in the home, we speak more and more in terms of machinery. We are tempted to forget the man be- hind the dynamo or the motor and the fact that the priceless gift of human life, is practically overlook- ed, '""As a matter of fact, in the course of the last quarter of a century, more attention has been given to the performance of the machine than to the preservation of life. As a result, an enormous number of lives have been lost in the service of industry, and, what is worse still, in the search for re- creation. Only in the past few years has improvement been sought through the elimination of dangers inherent to the present modes of work and living, through compul- sory accident prevention measures, or through the education of the pe~rie.
