There are about 256.362 grade cros- ings in the United States and nearly twenty million motor cars. To elimin- ate these grade crossings` would cost around fifteen_ billion dollars-a total` impossibility, and yet the railroads are trying to do that very thing-com- mencing with two classes of crossing --those with unusually dangerous lo- cations and those situated " on heavy traffic. V ~ - The Illinois Commerce Commission ha V ` enacted these excellent rules: i All crossings must be constructed so that the road space is flush with the` tops of the rails and sixteen inches outsidethe rails. Eighteen feet is to be the minimum width or the full. width of road ; if such width is greater. No grade is to exceed 1 per cent. for the first twenty-five feet on each side of the outer rails, or to exceed 3 per cent. 'withinthe right of _way. Railways must clear all brush five hundred feet on each side of crossings and highway comgnissioners three hundredfeet be- yon . dBe in that v anyhow. so hv handing +1.-.- c---- -s. - utmost to avoid accidents.
