SAFETY THROUGH TELEVISION.—Guards of trains on suburban lines in Paris use the television screen before signalling the trains on their way. This screen is part of an internal system installed in a dozen stations. Experiments are now being conducted in the underground. The guards can see if the doors are closed, or whether passengers are trying to get on or off. The suburban lines carry 47,000,000 passengers a year, and the system helps to speed up departures.
