THOMAS JEFFERSON
IN
“Rip Van Winkle.”
Ragged clothes, flapping as he walked; rusty gun over
shoulder; his Ions; white beard the prey of every vagrant
breeze he made his way painfully through the town . he
once had known so well, while at his heels the entire vil
lage mocked and hooted. The splendid arts try of
Thomas J.efferson was never mor perfectly disclosed than
in his exquisite handling of this situatici:----just ^ne of
the many big dramatic moments with - which Waeldhgton
Irving’s age-old classic is Studded. Only once in a while
does such a picture as “Rip Van Winkle come io ‘ the
screene. And so, of course you can’t afford to miss it..

This record, splendid as it is, we do not claim is except jjyml. ft merely goes to snow, as do other
figures, that American railways as a \vh >le are making ail excellent recor I in the reduction of fatalitjos.
'I he reason fpitliis is to Lm founfc in.the f ict that railway men have been train to give sifety precedence
ever all ot her things. To them ilia most familial rule in the standard book of railway rules: '‘in ease of
doubt or.uncertainty, the safe course must be taken.”
While railway traffic has greatly increased' in recent years fatalities on the railroads have been'de
creasing. 1929 was a year for traffic yet the number of fatalities was till smallest in 22 years. 11 21 in
turn broke this record by a reduction of 14 per cent, in the number of fatalities, according to tho report
of the Interstate Commerce Commission.
\
Tho unit by which freight traffic is measured is the ton mile and the unit of passenger traffic is the
milo. Statistic !sho.v that there has been a steady increase in both for the past ton years, the increase in
ton miles in 1920 over lLM I being Gt percent, and the increase in passenger miles being 42 per cent.
Yet despite this vast increase in business which required many more employes to handle the greater
tonnage and whioh subjected so miny more,passengers to danger, the total fatalities decreased 33 per
cent, in 1920 from 1911.

PERRV GEORGIA
Not Many would believe that there are nearly as many persons accidentally drowned in a year as
are fatally injured on the railways. Tho rate of deaths per hundred thousand population iu the United
States in 1920 from some of the commoner causes of fatalities was as follows: Falls. 12.3; Automobile,
10. 8; Burn's, [not conflagrations], 7. 9; Railroads G.6; Drownings5.9,
The Central of Georgia Railway has-handled, its share of increased business and at the same time
has been able to show a substantial lessening of fatalities" on its lines. In 1920 for instance, the ton
miles showed an increase of 51 par cent, over 1914; the passenger miles an increase of 32 per cent, while
the fatalities showed a decrease of 2G per cent.
We believe that the public will agree with us that tho handling of a heavier business with a smaller
number of fatalities-is a barometer of railway efficiency, The Central of Georgia Railway pledges renew
ed effort toward rendering the public a transportation service of safety and satisfaction and asks the
cooperation of* the public. L , .. v
Constructive criticism and suggestions reinvited.
