CAREFUL CROSSING CAMPAIGN TO CUT RAILROAD ACCIDENTS
Beginning June 1 for four months the American Railroad Association will lead a national education drive to reduce train motorist collisions. In 1920 1,273 deaths and 3,997 injuries were recorded at crossings. The campaign includes posters, press support, and school outreach to promote cautious crossing behavior and safer signals and maintenance. Trifles make perfection, but perfection is no trifle. This is a Studebaker year.
