ART VS.. BRICKS IN SYDNEY
A Peculiar Controversy in Australia
That Is Agitating Labor
Circles.

Here is a curious point of law or
logic presented in the Sydney IN. s.
W. Bulletin. The musicians union
of Sydney charges the Melbourne eight
hours procession with something like
scabbing because it decided that union
lists, even if they don't belong to the
musicians organization, may play in
its own ranks on the annual gala day.
There are arguments on both sides.
1t seems hard that union bricklayer
shouldn't be allowed to blow his own
cOrnet in his own demonstration on a
holiday. yet if he found a professional
cornet-player laying bricks on a Good
Friday he might object. OF course the
man in the procession isn't playing for
hire, but then it wouldn't improve
things much if the cornet-player laid
bricks gratis.
The bricklayer might argue that
there are a certain number of bricks
that must be laid, so the cornet-
player would be doing another man
out of job, while there isn't any
fixed amount of music that must be
Dl0Wn, so an amateur might dow d
sample or two without depriving any
other man of a crust. And the brick
layer probably says that the cornet-
player couldn't lay bricks decently if
he tried, to which the cornet-player
possibly replies that the bricklayer
can't make music.
To some extent 1t is a struggle be-
tween art and materialism. Music
properly played is capable of arousing
the highest and noblest emotions of
which the soul is capable; brick,
even if properly laid, isn't. And soul
isn't a thing to be lightly despised.
But here the tangible bumps against
the intangible. Nobody has seen a
soul, while almost everybody has seen
brick

The British third and fourth armies
are winning victory after victory In
their offensive below Arras, in north
ern Picardy.
They continued their advance Satur-
day night, capturing more towns. no.
tably on both sides of the former Ger
man base at Bapaume.
More than 1900 Germans have
been taken prisoner on that front
since last Wednesday morning.
On the southern front, along the
Disc and Ailette rivers, the Germans
began counter attacks against Gen
eral Mangin's French army to protect
the right wing of the crown princes
forces stretching eastward from So1s-
sons. This attack may have as its
object the covering Of retreat, IN
dications of which have been report
ed by the Americans along the Vesle
river.
The French continue to make excur-
sions. into the German lines on the
southeastern front. Raids have oeen
carried out along the Meuse and IN
the Woeve region, and Austro-Hunga-
rians have been captured there.
As the British have also captured
Austrians In Picardy, it Is evident that
the Germans have been forced to draw
upon their ally to fill in gapes.

Atlantic City, Aug. 26.-Baer In
girls knitting bags and whisky buried
in beach sand, all kinds of drinks
sold at a "non-alcoholic cafe, and
many other forms of evading the law
designed to keep booze from men in
the service, were uncovered in the
raid of agents of department of just
ice, which Melted nearly 100 arrests.
Men in the toggery of Uncle Sans
navy gathered much of the evidence
upon which the arrests were made.
Two of them slid down into the
Devils Hole" one Of the devices on
an amusement pier. At the bottom
were two girls, who readily produced
bottles of beer from their large and
ornamental knitting bags. The girls
accepted fifty cents for each bottle
and were promptly arrested as alleged
"bootleggers."
Other agents of the department
watched q hole in the Boardwalk
while Joseph Law, of Baltic avenue,
dug hole in the sand and buried two
bottles of whisky with a group of
jjaca-.s nearby keeping thirsty vigil
When the bottles were covered the
jaclsies cautiously approached, exhum-
ed them and deposited the necessary
price In pasteboard box Law had
buried with the bottles. He was at
once arrested, charged with bootleg

Swooping upon a bunch of beach
front hotels and cafes, the ogents,
under Todd Daniel, In conjunction
with the local police, arrested nearly
100 people, charged with conducting
disorderly houses and selling liquor
to men in uniform. The prisoners
were loaded In patrol wagons or COM
mandeered automobiles, and taken to
ia central police station.

Misunderstood Girl.

People who are always being mis-
understood have themselves to blame.
Some girls go about with the air OF
martyrs because their friends do not
understand them, but If such girls
were quite sincere they would be
forced to own that they do not fully
understand themselves. The "misun-
derstood girl needs to stop thinking
about herself, and begin to do some
thing for somebody else. The ten
dency to feel that no one understands
us is generally the result of too much
introspection, too much day dreaming
and not enough hard work.-Girls

Washington. Aug. 26.-The report OF
tbe senate military affairs committee
on the aircraft program and the pup
lication of startling evidence heioFe
the committee is simply preparatory TO
the big smash which is expected 10
came this week with the report OF the
investigation being conducted by
Charles F. Hughes.
Members of the senate investigate

! Mr.. Hughes, confidently predict re-
mort from him that will demand imme-
! date and sweeping action on the part
of the department Of justice.
What they have found and what
| they say Mr. Hughes has found is in
part:
| "a trail Of graft that runs through
| the aircraft production program from
| the beginning up until the present
| time
| sabotage. proved and certain
| coupled with criminal acts in produc-
| tion. criminal waste of materials OF
| almost inestimable value to the speed
| ing-up of aircraft production and its
| conseouent effect upon the strength
| and effectiveness of our troops in the
| battle line.
| "Favoritism and high pay for super

| that was farce aSd IHthing short OF
eontributory to murder in giving the
| stamp of approval at the factory to

| "a singular grouping of men OF
| Teutonic blood or extraction In I'M
| portant positions in aircraft produc-
ton plants and the rotation of skilled
/ workmen of the same class from one
| aircraft plant to another"
It is possible that the Hughes re-
| port may be silent on the last subject
because the mere fact that such men
| are associated in one way or another
with the aircraft production proves
! nothing, but it has attracted the I'M
! mediate attention of other investiga-
tors. and has been a source of mis-
| giving about achievements.
The faint of graft in aircraft pro,
/ duction is said to be so ingrained that
i none of the other investigators thus
far employed has been able to isolate
the leads and trace them to their
source.
/ Sabotage or the wilful gripping OF
flying machines and the machinery for
/ their production, has already been
! proved by other investigators under
| government direction. and has been
| one of the known lines followed by
| the Hughes investigation. Its pres

| ed in every branch of aircraft produc-
| tion from the cutting of the spruce
