The most reâ€" liable system is that which provides for an automatic closing of the gates when the sign is dropped giving the train the right of way. The French railroad interests are endeavoring "to introduce. the automatic scheme which places more responsibility on the highway user. If the automatic system is shown to be as safe for the road user as the present and more costly one, it will be authorized and pared with 80 per cent in France. "Our motorists are not less intelli~ gent nor more reckless than foreign motorists. _ The ~ odds are simply against them. "Out of 232,755 grade crossings used by motorists in United States, only 27,161 have any form of proteeâ€" tion, leaving 205,593 unguarded. In France, out of 32,500 grade crossings used by motorists, 26,000 are thorâ€" oughly protected, leaving only 6500 unprotected. In other words, only 8 per cent of the grade crossings in the United States are protected as comâ€" pufid with 80 per cent in France. 1 900,000 motor vehicles registered in United States. On this basis, one miotorist out of every 9,000 registered lost his life in a grade crossing acciâ€" dent. ® Sm oe e e t er it e Cotign‘y more miles of ‘highways, and more railroad mileage, but our average of fatalities is much greater; according 2‘9\{2&- {or 1925, there were 19,â€" western Europe doesnot redound to our credit. True, America has more automobiles, more grade crossings, _ "The grade crossing continues to take its toll, and is one of the most serious harards that safety workers have, to consider," says Charles M.

Fortyâ€"five of these districts were repâ€" resented in the study by at least twelve properties.

This inequality in assessment is pointed out in a reâ€" port entitled ‘"The Assessment of Real Estate for Taxation in Chicaâ€" go," published by the Institute for Research in Land Economics and Public Utilities.of Northwestern uniâ€" versity.
