AMERICANS AT
WORK nv EUROPE
Their Steady Employment Difficult Prob
lem Because They Do Not Appre-
ciate Value of European
Money.

Rome, Sept. | Correspondence Of thu
Associated Press THE steady employ
ment of Americans in Europe is a prob
lem difficult of solution simply becaus,
they seem unable to appreciate the value
of European money" said Sherman A
Boyce of Portland, Ore, at present de
tailed as travelling inspector for the Eu
ropean branches of large American ex.
press and banking concerns.
Before the war" he continued, such
firms employed almost exclusively Eng
lishmen, though now they are trying
again TO get Americans to come over
The trouble is that an American cannot
live abroad for the same salary that he
gets at home, nor even with an increase
Of third more At home he appreciates
the value OF ten cents, or a dollar, bat
when he gets abroad a shilling, franc,
or even five francs, has no value to him.
At home he is perfectly satisfied to live
in boarding house for six or eight dbl
lars a week, if he is single, but when
he gets to Paris or Milan, he thinks he =
got to pay ten francs day, the living,
working equivalent Of two dollars, or Sl4
week
Firms can only afford to pay seventy
or eighty dollars a month to beginners in
the European branches. which is much
more than would be paid an Englishman
or native of the country for the same
work. but the young Americans who
come over hardly get here before they
begin to complain about their salary,
that they are not making enough to live
on.
"The worst of it is, they are telling
the truth | find myself that | spend
very freely because can't some
how realize that franc or lire has
any real value This is delusion that
has stranded many an American abroad.
Many Americans are coming over here
now, partly for military partly for bust
ness reasons. and Europe is simply going
war Many of these will be here for
business, and those who stick and sue
coed will be those who learn to think in
francs instead Of dollars. The deception
is one of big figures. We know that 800

Sporting Notes.

Thursdays encounter between Chicago
and St. Louis made the 2lst game that
Cicotte, the Chicago finger, has annexed
to his credit in the winning column, this
making five full games that Chicago is
leading Boston.
Cobb, the Georgian Peach, continues to
travel along at rapid rate The Tiger
star secured four hits, including triple,
out of five times at bat in Thursday S
engagement with Cleveland.
Pitcher Paul Musser of the Des Moines
club has been sold to the Chicago Amer
lean league team, to report at the first of
next season. Musser has struck out
more than 300 batsmen during this sea
son.
Dave Morey, the former Dartmouth
football player, is certainly the iron
man" of the semi-pro league this season.
He has pitched in nearly every game for
the Martha's Vineyard team, has a rec
ord of IA straight wins, six shutouts and
a no hit, no-run game to his credit.
Connie Mack has lost Bates, his third
baseman, he having been accepted for the
draft army He has shifted Witt into
the third base position having placed
Dugan at short. The club may lose the
services of Noyes, pitcher, who is wait
ing to hear from home whether he has
been accepted or not.
Walker, the Red Sox centerfelder, had
big day in the field in the Boston.
Philadelphia encounter Thursday, when
he had eight putouts to his credit, sew
eral of which were difficult to handle.
Chief Bender, the Philadelphia pitcher,
not only pitched fairly effectively, but
did his bit towards winning the first
encounter of Thursdays double header
with Boston Bender had a home run
and single out of three times at bat to
his credit.
Pitcher Alexander of the Phillies bids
fair to acquire an extra bonus of 81 900
for having pitched in 25 victories Toney
of the Cincinnati team recently pitched
his Goth victory A few years ago it
seemed that no pitcher could ever win 20
games for the seemingly hopeless Reds

Washington, Sept New plans for
Graduating the sting of the U-boat are
under way. The best naval minds OF
America and the entente powers are at
work devisng additional methods of
eurbing its power Among the latest
suggestions is that zones $50 miles in
area be marked off in the neighborhood
of German submarine bases, and that
airships, warcraft mines, and all other
devices be employed to force the under
sea vessels to remain submerged, so that
their ability to strike merchantmen and
other surface craft be limited to the tor
pedo Inasmuch as the speed of U-boats
is greatly decreased beneath the waves
the chances of getting within range Of
their prey are also greatly diminished
New kinds of bombs have been devised
which. it is said, may prove effective in
combating the sub-sea fighters. Con,
VOWS also have shown their value, and
American warships in this direction have
performed remarkably well. II is re-

OUR BOYS MAY GO FIRST
Proposition to Send New England Divi-
sion of National Guard to France.

Washington, Sept. Ito the New
England national guardsmen may 60 the
honor of being the first national guards
men in the country to be sent to France.
1t was learned on the highest authority
at the war department yesterday after
noon that serious consideration was be-
ing given to the advisability of sending
the New England men abroad ahead of
the Rainbow division composed of
guardsmen from 81 states, which were
scheduled originally to be the first to
cross the Atlantic Emphasis was laid
on the fact that the matter has not been
finally decided but it was said that it
was very possible the contemplated
change would be made. The change was
advised because the New England men
are easier to assemble, as we'll equipped
and are better trained than the men in
the Rainbow division"

JOE DANIELS
4D4M4NT AGAINST
NAVY LEAGUE
No Socks for Sailors from That Body
If He Knows

Washington, Sept l.. Neither sack
cloth nor ashes nor any of the other hab
iliments of repentance will move thu
heart of Josephus Daniels, secretary Of
the navy, so far as the officers of the
navy league are concerned. For ever
and ever and amen they are consigned
to the outer darkness of Mr.. Daniels dis
favor.
Nothing that Col Thompson, presi'
dent of the league, may do to win for
giveness will avail Nothing can make
the navy of the United States, under
Josephus Daniels, accept socks for the
sailors from the navy league. There
was note of absolute and uncompro-
mishing finally in the voice of Mr.. Dan
iels' yesterday.
In response to question as to wheth-
er the leagues retraction of its charges
in the Mare island matter constituted a
means of reconciliation, he said: Il
have no statement to make on any utter
ance made by any officer of the navy
league That goes for the past, present
and future"
But, Mr.. Daniels, the league says
it didn't mean to say that"
Il have no comment to make" in
terrupted the secretary.
But it says it's err
Il have nothing to say"
But it says"
Don't want to hear it,
But

DECLARES CHILD LABOR
LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Judge Boyd Gives Decision on Heating

Greensboro, y. G., Sept Federal
Judge James =. Boyd yesterday declared
the Heating Owen child labor law I'M

test case brought by fat her who claimed
the right to have his two minor sons

pany from Diminishing the two boys, mi
nors, from the company's mill at Char

ant The law became effective to-day.
Reuben Dagenhart is under l6 and John
Dagenhart under IA years of age. The
father eontended he has a right to their
wages until they are p, and that, as the
North Carolina law allows ii hours a
day, Reuben has right to work more
than eight hours day, while John has
a right to work in the mill, although
under IA, because the state law permits
it.
The child labor law represented the re-
suit of years OF struggle in Congress be-
tween forces urging the conservation of
child life and those opposing it on many
grounds, chiefly that it was question
for the states and not for the federal
government.

pedited to get it before the supreme court
at the coming fall term.
Inasmuch as contest was to be ex-
pected the officials are not concerned over
the decision by lower court, as it serves
as the vehicle for appeal and speedy de
termination of the question before the
highest court in the land. Department of
Justice officials have no doubt of the con
stitutionality of the law and are conf
dent that many decisions of the supreme
court point to victory for the govern

Chicago, Sept la mysterious scheme
for further utilization of by-pro lucts
which may, it is said, revolutionize the

consideration by Chicago packers.
No packers representative would re-
veal the nature of the scheme, but it was
admitted that it was discussed with IIef
bert G. Hoover ON his recent visit to Chi
cago. To be practicable, it was said, even
the minor packing concerns must be let
into the secret.

packers will appoint committee to in
yestigate the feasibility of the proposed
revolutionizing scheme, This committee
will report back to the food administra-
