the enemy, who began firing before
midnight. First one place was strafed

gas projectiles, fell.

The report of the commission. con-
sistins of Franklin X. Lane. secretary
Of the interior; Charles c. McChord.
J. Harry Covington. and william X.
Wilcox, Is an exhaustive one. In part
the report says:
The requests which have come to
US for wage increases, would. II fully
granted, involve an additional outlay
in wages of somewhat over S1.OOO.OU.-
600 per year In excess Of the wage fund
of last year, which exceeded 5000.
100000. Some asked for an increase
Of 100 per cent in their pay. and from
this they graduated downward to 10
per cent. None were satisfied with
their present wages.
ITO classify the many hundreds OF
employments In which the 100000
railroad workers engage would be
task calling for more time, skill, in
sight. and knowledge than We possess.
At the outset, IL was seen that there
were grave inequalities in the rates Of
wages paid. But who could say what
relationship each class Of employees
should bear to the other? Abstractly,
why should an engineer receive $40
per month and a telegraph operator
$50 per month?

cent to the highest to 43 per cent 20

Director General McAdoo by the rail-
road wage commission.
Mr.. McAdoo is expected to adopt
only part Of the recommendations and
probably will make a number OF diff.
ferent alignments In deciding what
wage increases shall be granted.
In general. the director general ad-
vocates higher pay for most classes Of
workmen to enable them to meet in
creased living costs, but he has been
represented as favoring proportionate-
iy larger increases for some classes
than for others now making the same
pay. He also Is strongly opposed to
granting wage increases which might
disarrange the general scheme Of pay
existing throughout Oiher industries.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgrieultureD
Theory is simply the sign post that
points the way in road building.
while judgment II the vehicle on which
the journey Is dependent. says a pub
lication on The Design Of Public
Roads" by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture.
The publication emphasizes the
necessity Of giving the greatest con-
sideration to all local factors in road
construction. In order to furnish the
kind of roads that q community wants
and to furnish them with. the least
possible drain on the public treasury.
the person who designs them must be
thoroughly familiar with local condi-
tons and must possess the judgment
necessary to weigh the Importance Of
all considerations. The publication
makes no attempt to state definite and
exact rules for designing roads to
suit every locality but takes up sep
arately the important features Of the
problem with q view to showing the
variations in current practice and the
influence Of some special conditions
with regard to each feature.
In order to select the type of sur
face best adapted to the need Of a
particular road. it is necessary to con-
slider first, the class of trafic to
which the road will be subjected. and
second, TO compare the estimated ulti-
mate cost Of the different surface
types which would be capable of sat
isfactorily caring for that particular
class of traffic. The number Of roads
for which accurate traffic and eff
cheney records have been kept is said
to be insufficient to warrant definite
conclusions as to the best type for
any particular class OF traffic. but the
following summary is said to contain
about as definite information on this
point as can be drawn from available
records.
ta) Earth roads, when properly
maintained, are satisfactory in dry
weather for a light volume OF all
kinds Of highway traffic.
(b) Sand-clay roads are the same
as earth roads. except that the sur
facing material has been selected care
fully with a view to increasing the
stability of the surface in both wet
and dry weather. They are satisfac-
tory for a moderate traffic Of horse
drawn vehicles and a light traffic Of
automobiles. They seldom are salts
factory for even a light traffic Of
heavy trucks unless the roadbed ma
terial is very stable.
(c) Gravel roads, when well built.
are satisfactory for a heavy traffic OF

horse-drawn vehicles, a light traffic
Of automobiles. and light traffic Of
heavy trucks.
(d) Water-bOund macadam roads
are adapted to the same general char
acter Of traffic as gravel roads.
(e) Surface-treated macadam roads
are adapted especially for heavy
traffic Of automobiles. They also are
satisfactory for Q light trafic Of
hOrse-drawn vehicles and heavy
trucks. In all cases they require con-
slant maintenance.
(O BItuminous roads are suitable
for q heavy tranic Of both automobiles
and horse-drawn vehicles and q mod
crate traffic Of heavy trucks.
(g) Concrete roads are adapted to
the same general class Of trafiic as
bituminous roads. and generally are
capable Of withstanding the traffic Of
somewhat heavier vehicles without in
jury.
(h) Brick roads are adapted to the
same general class Of trafic as con-
crete roads. Either brick or concrete
roads, however, may be economical
for only moderate tranic where other
road-building materials are scarce.

ment control started and which they
repeated before the commission. Their
demands had been for an average OF
somewhat less than 20 per cent, and
Increases for them average less than
% per cent.
Some union leaders who anticipated
that the commissions recommended
lions would not be for as great
amounts as they had asked already
have appealed to Director General Nc
Adoo to amend the proposed scale to
give them higher pay. Others. how
