Germans Pay Tribute TO
"BravelY Young Airman Who

FOUGHT AGAINST
OVER WHELMING ODDS

AMSTERDAM. July 22.-The death OF
Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt IS con-
lrmed by a Wolf Bureau message
from the 'front.' according TO Berlin
dispatch received here. The message
adds young Roosevelt was buried with
military honors by the Germans. The
story Of the fatal encounter, as told
by the Wolf Bureau correspondent
follows:
"On Sunday, July "a. an American
squadron OF twelve battleplanes was
trying TO break through the German
defense over the Marne. In the yio-
lent combat which ensued with seven
German machines, one American avia-
tor stubornly made repeated attacks.
This eliminated In a duel between
him and a German cOn-cOmmissloned
officer, who, after a short fight. sue
ceeded In getting good aim at his brave
but inexperienced opponent, whose
machine fell after few shots near the
village Of Chambray, ten kilometers
north OF the Marne.

EIGHT-HOUk DAY
ALSO TO BIT FIXED

WASHINGTON. July 22-The national
war labor board viii decide on Tues
dayday what rate Of pay constitutes a
living wage" and will adjust all future
wage dispute on that basis. Several
wage controversies, adjusted temper
arily, notably the Waynesboro, Pa,
case, are affected.
In the WsynesbOrO case the board
went on record as favoring an absolute.
minimum OF forty cents an hour for
common labor, when the workers, who
were making twenty-five cents, struck
in demand for thirty. IL was learned
there is a general sentiment in the
board TO make the minimum pay for
the lowest grade Of labor about forty
seven and One-half cents an hour.
II this figure IS approved by the
board, It will presage corresponding
advances in other classes OF labor, so
an automatic wage increase Of many
millions Of dollars, virtually all or
which would be borne by the govern
ment, is involved.
IL is likely the board will reach a def
mite decision this week on the es-
tablishment Of the basic eight-hour day

PROMOTIONS FOR
WILMINGTON BOYS

CAMP DIX, Wrightstown, N. j., July
22.-As rapidly as 1900 recruits due
this week from New Jersey, New York
and Delaware are mustered into ser
vice and classified by the personnel de-
partment according to their previous
employment, the individuals OF each
class Will In turn be measured as 10
the proficiency they have attained In
their respective trades, so that imme-
diately officers can ascertain which men
are at once available for duties in spe-
cial units and which need additional
training. This remarkable cataloging
OF human abilities viii be accomplished
by an application OF the new standard
lied trade tests adopted by the National
Committee on Classification OF Per-
sonnel, after exhaustive experiments
here and soon TO be extended as a
branch Of the personnel work in all
training camps.
The development OF this yard stick"
TO measure a mans mechanical skill Is
purely a result OF the war. American
manufacturers usually have had TO ac-
cept an empl0ye on the strength Of his
declaration OF ability and give him a
trial to test his veractity by perform
ance. These new tests do away with
the necessity Of an actual trial, and
show up a candidates ability as accu-
rately and almost as quickly as a ther-
mometer shows the temperature Of
water into which Il IS plunged Within
a few minutes after he has taken the
trade test a recruit can be positively
listed for his special trade In one OF the
four classes-nOvice. apprentice, jour
neyman or journeyman expert.
A recruit might, for instance. be
tempted TO stretch his Imagination TO
advance his claim 10 enter a certain
branch Of the service. lie might have
been a clerk, but he wants TO become
motor driver. Having driven an au-l
tomobile a few times during his life, /
he thinks himself qualified as an am
bulance or truck driver. Uncle Sam
has no quarrel with the recruits am [
bition, but in war he has no time for |
experiments and must have the facts. /
Hence the recruit might as well come |
clean and give the personnel board his
exact status, as near as he can figure II, |
for the trade-test expert Will properly
catalOg him later.
Every schoolboy knows how the flrst

tions, compiled by experts in each
trade, was finally boiled down TO q
standard set OF queries. These were
submitted to mechanics in that respec-
tive trade. It was found that experts
invariably answered a given percentage
correctly. Actual journeymen obtained
slightly lower percentage than eX-
perts. The apprentices figured next
and the novices had the lowest rating.
Repeated tests gave the board a stand
ard percentage for each class and a
basis for the system In use here and OF
which Captain Earl b. Hawk, camp per-
sonnel onlcer. has made Lieutenant
Edward s. Gregory, Jr, head.
In addition TO the oral tests, the
board has adopted pictorial tests in
many trades. In motors, for instance.
there are photographs Of parts OF mo-
tors and auto equipment, tools, etc.
The recruit must Identify at a glance
each part and describe its use. The
third feature is the performance test,
subdivided into process and product.
Still sticking 10 motoring as an exam
pie, the actual driving OF a car under
difficult conditions ranks under the
first subdivision; the repairing OF
parts under the second.
The performance test in motoring is
given on a sandy hillside opposite the
fortiflcations on Marne Hill. The
driver has TO send his car forward
through an S-shaped avenue OF sand,
then back Il through the same thor
oughfare and the supreme trial comes

Grafton the general health conditions
OF the recruit and the possibility also
that his lack OF weight may be due ito
