Noon Hour Firmly Established.

The noon hour surely is firmly es-
tablshed institution in downtown New
York. 1t was not established merely
for luncheon, but for numerous other
recreations equally as important.
Food is not everything. In Battery
place the young men who work in
the big buildings in that vicinity have
organized baseball club. And it is
real baseball game, too. There is
this difference, a tennis ball is sub
stituted for the regular horsehide. And
no wonder. For the bat used is not
stout hickory club-it is the human
fist. Nevertheless, the game is base
ball with pitcher, catcher, basemen
and fielders. Every day, except in
rain. it has been the custom to assem-
BILE at this spot shortly after the noon
hour and start game. Large crowds
turn out to watch and applaud their
favorite players-so sometimes larger
and usually far more enthusiastic
crowds than those who pay admission
to see the Giants perform.

BETTER ROADS ARE FAVORED
State of Iowa Is lauded by Depart
ment of Agriculture as Model in
Construction of Roads.

Iowa is lauded by the department OF
agriculture as a model road builder. In
Iowa a measure of control over high
way construction has been given to
the state, and a comparison with the
results obtained when the supervision
rested entirely with the counties
shows that state control is the best.
Indiana needs some form of central
lied power over highway construction
and maintenance. In isolated cases it
is excellent. Wayne county, for in
stance. has a capable superintendent
of roads, and its highways are models.
But this does not obtain over the
whole state.-Richmond Palladium.

THREE CLASSES OF HIGHWAYS
Classification Is Prime Step In teo-
eral Aid to Good Roads, Says
Congressman BorIand.

With various bills before congress
for federal aid to road building the
classification of highways so that
important through routes may be out
lined clearly from the countrys maze
of thoroughfares of one kind or an
other. becomes question or more
and more interest. Congressman w.
p. Borland Of Missouri, good-roads
advocate, has expressed himself on
this subject as follows:
1T will be necessary, in my Judg-
ment, to classify all existing high
ways into at least three classifications
The first class is that of the great
cross-state or interstate highways.
The second consists of the main
feeders or great country roads;
and third, the byroads, local roads
or lanes These various classes OK
roads should be built, improved and
maintained with view to the
amount of traffic that they can bear
and must bear. The first class should
be of the most permanent and Sclen-
tific construction. The second class
could be of less expensive nature
and would need less maintenance.
The third class could be improved
only to the extent that the community
required. The expense of building
and maintaining these roads should
J be distributed upon the same basis.
"The roads of the first class should
be supported by the taxing power OF
a large area of country. The second
class of roads should also have a
wide taxing power at least co-exten-
sive with the county and possibly
with a group of counties or with
some state aid. This would leave

French War office Announces That

Maurepas Has Been =.

PARIS, Aug. 21.-The Germans
made a second desperate attempt to
re-capture the village of Fleury, three
and one-half miles northeast of Verdun
last night, attacking in force, after
spraying the French positions with
liquid fire. The war office announced
today that French barrage infantry
fire stopped the attack short, inflict-
Ing serious losses on the enemy.
In yesterdays fighting north of
the Somme, in which the French cap
tured strongly fortified wood be-
tween GuilIemont and Maurepas, six
German cannon were captured. Last
night an active artillery duel con-
tinued on the Somme front, but there
were no infantry engagements OF
Importance.
Practically the whole village of
Maurepas is now in French hands as
the result of Thursdays fighting and
local actions since that time. The
French first captured a number of
strong Positions at the outskirts of
the town and then drove the Ger
mans from the remainder Of the vii.
lage with their artillery. The Ger.
man artillery made II inadvisable for
the French to occupy the remainder
Of Maurepas, until the French lines
we're advanced further north Of the
village.

BUSINESS IS INTERESTED

[By Robert J. Bender, United Press
Staff Correspondents
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Big rail-
road men of the west hurrying into
Washington today with the single
demand of arbitration" on their lips
found President Wilson's answer
waiting them. It is that acceptance
of the eight hour day now and ap-
pointment pf commission to in
vestigate all the arbitration points
involved in the threatened railway
strike, is the surest means towards
bringing about a permanent workable
arbitration for the future.
arrival Of the western railroad
presidents and receipts of hundreds
of kilograms from commercial and
industrial concerns all over the coun-
try were the features of the first
day of the second week OF the presi-
dents intervention between the war
ring railways and railroad brother
hoods. The presidents came at Pres
ident Wilson'S invitation and the
kilograms in part at least at the in
vitation of the railroads.
Railroad executives here made no
secret OF the fact that they were
lining up all possible business support
for their arbitration contention. The
president made his answer known in
reply to one of these telegrams: that
from George Pope, president of the
National Association of Manufac-
turers.
Pope declared 3,7O0 manufacturing
concerns employing 10000 persons,
are utterly dependent ON untnter-
rupted railway service. He urged
the president to prevent the threat
ened stoppage of railroad service and
at the same time to maintain the
principle of arbitration. Existing
means have failed, he replied, and
declared he was moving to strength
en- the principle of arbitration so such
situation cannot arise again. Re-
garding the eight hour day he said in
his telegram to Pope: THE whole
economic movement all the time
seems to- point to it. The opinion in
Washington today is that demands
on the president by the railway
heads for arbitration of the eigli'
hour day therefore will not move
him"
The conflict would seem irrecon
cilible, hut the feeling in Washington
seems that in some manner strike
will be avoided. Representatives o1
brotherhoods now consider them
selves more or less on the side lines
