GREAT WORK OF
/ NEW INVENTION
Most Destructive War
Implement Known.
II OPERATES ALL BY ITSELF
Controlled From Shore. II
Could Do Deadly Injury
To Enemy Fleet.
lNvlNcIsLE To ENEMY's FIRE

Washington, Feb. pa coast
defense weapon more deadly than
shell fire. more accurate than any
existing torpedo weapon which
could practically annihilate any
hostile feet which tried to approach
within ten miles of our shores-that
will be Uncle Sans marvellous new
arm against intrusion. when expert
ments now being conducted have at
tanned success.
The new weapon is the radio
controlled torpedo.
Its inventor is the young genius,
John Hays Hammond, Jr., who has
been performing seemingly marvel
GUS feats with his enormous wire
less plant at Gloucester, Mass.
The fisher folk OF Gloucester have
long since been accustomed to the
lsweird sight of an absolutely desert
ed ship-Hammond's magic craft,
the "Radio''-darting about the
harbor at a speed OF thirty miles an
hour.
u Its pilot was silent man perch
sed in a tower miles away on shore
When he pressed key there was
splutter and hiss OF the purple wire
Jess spark, and the mysterious ship
Tin the harbor uncannily steered to
right or left, as the distant pilot
wished.
According to Brig. Gen. Erasmus
Weaver. chief of coast artillery, this
magic apparatus has now been near
Ny perfected so it can soon be ap-
piled TO submerged torpedo guild
ed by wireless waves from the
shorel
Another method of using II
against hostile ships suggested by
some, is as a hydroplane travelling
forty miles an hour over the water
with contact torpedo projecting
from its PROV.
1t would be practically impossible
for a warship to doge such a pro-
jectile or to hit it with guntire. The
perfect accuracy of this new and
deadly weapon was explained to
correspondent by one of Ham
mond's former assistants, in the
phrase. with it We We're able to hit
squarely a small spar buoy anchor
ed so far out in the harbor that il
would have been utterly impossible
to hit it with bullet

GIRL MILLlNER RELATES STORY
OF GAGE BROS.

An expert milliner yesterday told
reporter for The Day Book how Gage
Brothers, the Michigan av. milliners,
employed her a week on trial and
then handed her So, telling her that
was what she earned.
Two months ago the girl gradu-
ated, an expert milliner, from one Of
the largest firms in Dublin, Ireland.
Coming to this country she carried
her letters of recommendation to
Gage Brothers. There she was inter
viewed by Mrs. CULVER, who asked
her what pay she expected to receive.
The girl said not less than $40
week. Mrs. CULVER said that she
would be only too glad to give her
trial and so the girl went to work.
On last Monday Mrs Gulliver again
interviewed her and inquired about
the financial condition of her family,
if she was dependent on her salary
and why she was working, etc.
The girl said that her family was
in fairly comfortable circumstances
and that she had learned the millin-
er's trade that she might start in
business for herself later on.
Tuesday the girl was handed her
pay. When she saw its amount she
understood the reason for the Cross
examination the day before.
She handed the envelope back, say
ing that she could not take it. Mrs.
CULVER called Frank Crandall, vice
president of the concern, and he
questioned the girl He said that if
she accepted the money and
remained another week they would
find something better for her.
Yesterday the brother accompan-
led the girl to work. He demanded
to know the reason for the cross
examination and why the girl were
not told what wages they were work
ing for until they we're employed
week.

after the girls have been working
week." he was asked. There was
no reply.
Yesterday I went down and re-
ceived the S." the girl told the re-
porter. 81 was again questioned by
CrandaI. A stenographer was also
in his office, taking our conversation.
After / signed a receipt he gave me
the money.
81 served as apprentice in the old
country for two years and when 1
left was making SIS week. My
treatment, I found, was not an ex-
ception. Other girls were treated in
the same manner, and the firm en-
ploys hundreds of new girls every
week. Good milliners are paid 81
and, unable to live on their pay, many
of them quit every week"

"POISoN PEN" GASES
Federal officials are today inVesti-
eating two complaints of poison
pen" letters. Atty Guy Guernsey,
former president of the Hamilton
club, is one of the victims.
For the past few months, accord
ing to the story told the postal au-
thorities, his mail box has been food
ed with scorching letters, many Of
them obscene, telling Of supposed
orgies in Sheridan road dives.
Until recently, his wife and he have
been called to the phone and wild
tales of scandal were recited. He
told the postal officials a woman's
jealousy was the probable cause.
Mrs. Natalie Gross, 6107 Stewart,
complains that she has been getting
similar letters and has appealed to
the federal men for aid against the
anonymous attack.

AU0Iu00us Az w.
However it may be in other
states, l am convinced that here IN
North Carolina We are wasting ~
psr cent of the money We are spsn-
ding for improved roads; the mud
sill of our whole road building
structure 10 rotten. We arc vot-
ing bonds to build what we call
permanent roads, and taking no
thought for maintenance.
A Permanent road does not call
for maintenance. This is the idea
upon which we are acting, aud the
result 10 that the type Of road We
are building does not lend itself
to either easy or cheap malntsn-
ance, aud after We get it We find
there 10 no such thing - . per-
mauent road and in building At
that ideal We have constructed a
road that not only need upkssp
and wears out without, but worse
than this, our building methods
have given 10 = kind of road that
10 % difficult aud expensive to
maintain that We do not maintain
it. Therefore it wears Out. aud
whom it 10 past endurance there is
nothing to do but make another
bond issue and build another per.

piliug DIP bond issues to DO paid
by future generations for roads
that will not last until our babies
put on long pants.
NO SUCH THING AS A PERMANENT

once, aud make it every two weeks.
Well, but tho very best built roads
in my state have not been touch
cd in six months or a year, or
longer many of them have never
been touched since completion.
Some Of these roads are 30 con.
structed as to make repair sxpen-
sive; with others 1T Is Impossible.
The question of maintenance
should bs kept to the front IN de-
Gliding every detail of construction.
And just here let me emphasize
another Fundamental principle.
There is only one way to maintain
q road 10 good condition oil the
time, aud that way is to drag it
frequently enough to keep the ruts
and holes out of it's surface. There
fore the road should be built in
its every detail SO that 1t can be
easily and chsaply dragged. The
most important single Item In con-
s,ructiOn il proper drainage. Com
plste maintenance 10 spelled this
way: 'd-r-s-R. Surface material
does not matter 30 much Is We
think. Gravel, sandy clay, &C.
ment - these things do, not make
good roads stay good. Drain and
drag are the golddust twins. l
am pre-supposing the best posi-
bic location by the best possible
road enginssI; then build 10 per-
fsctly drain with your eye always
on the later use of . drag.
DON'T SPEND ALL IN CONSTRUCTION
About that engineer: l would
employ the best ono in roach, and
have him take plenty OF time to
find the best location, avoiding
cuts and fills as much ~ possible.
Better to 10 around than through,
If for no other reason than because
it makes dragging easier and
cheaper and more efficient. Tell
him that you want him to provide
plans for bitches end vnderdrains
80 that not one drop Of water that
falls on adjacent land can ever
run on to the roadway at any
point. Let him have time to dc
eli this we'll, and when you got th.
stakes in the ground. your pro
files and ful plaus, discharge thu
engineer. Of course, l do no
mean exactly that but in the lateI
processes of construction do no
lot him have his way 50 fully.
