BLOCK SYSTEM ADVOCATED
Traffic Orer Southern Pacific Elec
tric Lines so Heavy Danger
Exists, Says Report.
ORECONIAN NETVS BUREAU,
Washington, Sept. 2. Responsibility
for the, head-on collision that occurred
Jlay 9, 1920, on the Southern Pacific's
electric line near Bertha, Or., is placed
by the interstate commerce commis
sion on Conductor Pharis and Engine
man Willett of train No. 124, they
Jiavinar failed to obey train order No.
204, which directed them to meet train
No. 107 at Bertha.
Instead of observing: these orders
they ran past the established meeting
point and collided with the train hav
,Jtir right of way, with the result that
eight persons were killed and 102 in
jured. Thfs finding Is announced by the
commission in a report today signed
by W. P. Borland, chief of the bureau
of safety. Aside from placing respon
sibility on Pharis and Willett, Mr.
Borland finds that traffic over the
electric lines of the Southern Pacific
nut of Portland is so heavy that safety
to travelers can only be Insured
through the installation of the block
eastern. The present method of dis
patching trains on special orders is
found to be inadequate and unsafe.
Conductor Knew of Meeting.
The Borland report reviews tno
Tacts developed at an investigation
into the causes of the accident, and
shows that Conductor Pharis clearly
understood the orders under which he
waa running on the fatal trip, and
that as his train approached Bertha
he gave the signal to the engineman
that he was approaching a meeting
point.
The signal was acknowledged by
the engineman, and the train stopped,
some passengers were received and
the air brakes tested, after which
Conductor Pharis gave the signal to
proceed. Continuing, the report says:
"This accident was caused by the
failure of Conductor Pharis and En
gineman Willett of train No. 124 to
obey train order No. 204, which estab
lished a meeting point between their
train and train No. 107 at Bertha.
' F.nslncmiB Kbcw Orders..
"The evidence indicates that Con
ductor Pharis had talked with En
gineman Willett about the order anfl
that the engineman fully understood
lis contents; that engineman tenders
had talked with Engineman Willett at
Main street, at which time he seemed
to be in normal physical condition,
that Engineman Willett acknow
ledged the conductor's meeting-point
signal when approaching Bertha, and
that a stop was made at that time
and a test of the air brakes made.
"In view of the facts, and also In
iew of the fact that the controller
of car 603 (Willett's car) was equipped
with a device known as "dead man's
control," which cuts off the current
and applies the brakes In case the
engineman becomes physically inca
pacitated and his hand is removed
from the controller, any attempt to
assign a definite reason for the fail
ure of Engineman Willett to comply
with train order No. 204 and bring his
train to a stop before passing the
east passing track switch, at which
point train No. 107 was to have taken
the siding for his agin, resolves It
self Into a matter of mere conjecture.
That conductor Pharis was not
paying proper attention to the oper
ation of his train was evident from
the fact that his train was near the
east passing track switch, running at
a speed estimated by him to have
been about 35 miles an hour, before he
realize that the requirements of the
meet order were not being observed.
while the accident occurred before he
liad taken any effective steps toward
bringing his train to a stop.
Conductor's Action Poxsling.
"Knowing that after leaving the
Station at Bertha his train .would
have to etop within a distance of less
than one-half mile for the purpose of
meeting train No. 107, it is inconceiv
able how Conductor Pharis could have
returned to the inside of his train
and have become so engrossed with
other matters as not to know that the
meet order was being disregarded.
"Engineman Willett was employed
a fireman in April, 1898, and pro
moted to engineman in 1902. He had
been disciplined on two occasions for
mproper handling of train orders.
Engineman Willett's investigation
filled to disclose anything to indi
cate that he had not made . proper
use of his period off duty. Conductor
Phsrls was employed as a brakemajt
In 1900 and promoted to conductor in
3904. His record was good. At the
time of the accident the crew of
train No. 124 had been on duty nearly
5 hours, after about 12 hours off duty.
"This accident again directs atten
tion to the inherent weakness of the
timetable and train order method of
operation as compared with the block
aystem. Two other head-on collisions
occurring on the lines of the Southern
Pacific system in this locality have
been investigated, one in 1915 and
one In 1918, which were due to similar
causes.
Traffic Is Heavy. .
"Over thdue tracks there is a large
volume of traffic, including a con
siderable number of suburban trains.
Following the Rlverdale accident of
1915 the block system was installed
on the line from Jefferson street
depot at Portland to Oswego, and at
th5 time of the accident near Oswego,
in 1918 an appropriation had been
made for extending the block system
west of that point.
"The traffic on these lines is of
such character, including trains mak
ing frequent stops and attaining com
paratively high speed between sta
tions, that proper protection can be
furnished onlyby block signals and
a code of block rules adequate to
meet the traffic requirements. In
this vicinity in electric train service
the volume fluctuates from day to
day, particularly at week ends and in
holidayseason8, and it was brought
out at the investigation that it is
frequently necessary to extend sched
ules in electric zones.
Orders Subject to Misunderstanding.
"Under these circumstances the
train orders for directing the move
ment of traffic are particularly sus
ceptible to misunderstanding, miuln
terpretation or other error.
"Apparently the Southern Pacific
company. has recognized this neces
sity by the installation of the block
system on a portion of thesewllnes.
On the line where this accident oc
curred between Portland and Reed
vine nhere arc 20 first-class- trains
operated daily in both directions, In
addition to six other first-class trains
which are operated over a portion of
this territory.
"With the exception of one train.
CRASH
which leaves Portland late in the
evening, all of these 26 trains are
operated within a period of approxi
mately 17 hours. Traffic of this den
sity on a single-track road warrants
the installation of an adequate block
system."
It is recommended that such a sys
tem be promptly placed in operation
on, this line in order to insure prop
er protection for the operation of
trains.
