Restrains Work on Cleveland County
 District 2 Road

Attorneys H. K. Toney and A. II Rowell returned yesterday from Rison where they went in the inter- est of clients in the case of O'Neal and others vs. Cleveland county road district No. 2, which was heard be- fore Circuit Judge Turner Butler.
 A temporary order restraining the commissioners and assessors against levying taxes against the property in the district was ordered by Judge Butler. He intimated, it is said, that he will hold the act creating the dis trict unconstitutional. The attorneys were given more time in which to prepare for a final hearing.
 The people in the district protest the building of the road, it is said because the district does hot carry the road to Pine Bluff, the proposed road to go from Rison to point on the Warren road. Judge Elliot some time ago, refused to grant an injunc- tion when this road case was brought up before him.
 Attorney A. H. Rowell is represent ing the district, while H. K. Toney represents the plaintiffs.

 In his new Paramount production You're Fired!' Wallace Reid changes from heavy dramatic roles to light comedy. Some of his late produc- tions have been straight dramas. but his latest starring vehicle "Youre Fired" which is on view at the Best theatre tomorrow, is one of the fun niest and most entertaining comedy dramas ever produced.

W. U. Employees Here
 Receive Back Pay

Employees of the Western Union Telegraph company's Pine Bluff of flee were in better humor than usual yesterday. Everyone was smiling and there was an atmosphere of sat isfaction such as obtains in most af- ter the presents are distributed on Christmas morn and--where every one has received just what he wanted
 The joy was occasioned by the re- ceipt and distribution of about $40C in back pay. In January of last year, Manager F. w. Hoyler explained, the Western Union increased salaries 20 per cent, making the increase retro active as of August, 1917. Before the accumulation under this arrange ment could be paid the government took over the wires, and payment was delayed.
 It was this money which came yes terday and was distributed among five of the company's employees here.

R-34 COMPLETES
 VOYAGE ACROSS
 ATLANTIC OCEAN

Putnam, Norfolk. Eng, July IA Great Britain's mammoth trans Atlantic air pioneer, the dirigible R~34 arrived at the air station here at 6:56 o'clock Greenwich mean time, yesterday, completing her round trip from the Brish Isles to the United States and return. The R-34 pointed her nose out of the clouds northeast of the village and after circling the flying field three times glided gently to the ground and 10 minutes later was housed in the dirigible shed. The voyage from Long Island was with out particular incident.
 The arrival of the R-34 at Pullman, about 85 miles northwest of London,
 marks the completion of the first round try voyage of hghter-than- ar craft across the Atlantic ocean. and 56 minutes.
 The R-34 was delayed on her flight from East Fortune to America owing to fog and stormy weather, requiring 10S hours, 12 minutes, flo rthe 3,200
 miles.

LITTLE CHANGE
 IN CONDITION OF
 THE COTTON CROP
Boil Weeyil Active; Large Areas in GraSs--Lab0r Problem
 Difficult.

! Little change in the cotton crop prospect is indicated by reports dated July 10, sent in by correspondents of the Commercial Appeal, the comparison being made with the
 endJune period, writes George L. Fossick, in summarizing the reports from the different sections. ! Temperatures and weather con- ditions generally have been mostly favorable during the past three weeks. Good progress has been made in killing grass, but stands have been somewhat broken in the process.
 Backsets, due to other causes, have about, or a little more than, offset the advantage gained by clean CT fields. Boil weevil is very numer- ous active and becoming more de- structive as the plant begins to show squares.
 Compared with our estimate as of June 20, which placed the con- dition as of that date at 73.2 per cent of 8 normal, we now believe that a condition as of July 10 would be something between 72 and 73 per cent of a normal. Definite figures will be issued by us on July 2S, as of July 20.
 The crop seems to be in good shape for rapid improvement from this time forward, which it must do with ir the next few weeks or fall uch lower in the scale as a prospect. The boil weevil is now the source of greatest apprehension.
 Arkansas, North and South Caro- ina, Tennessee and Oklahoma, it is indicated, have made distinct im- provement during the past three weeks, Louisiana has gone back woefully, and Alabama has deterio- rated very slightly. Georgia, Missis- sipni and Texas are about unchanged as to the general condition as com- pared with a normal.
 Large areas in Texas are still in the grass, and others in the same state are just getting out. Louisiana is grass-ridden and Arkansas not much better off. Georgia, Alabama Mississippi, Tennessee and Oklahoma have had about equal success in fight ing grass, but the work is far from done. The Carolinas are clean. Bell Weevile has appeared in all state excepting North Carolina and Tennessee, and has become numerous ard active everywhere found except ing in South Carolina, where the visi- tation seems to be confined to one county, and in Oklahoma.
 This report is based upon reports from 7S2 counties in the 10 principal cotton growing states. These re- ports make out that boil weevil has appeared in 289 counties, and that in the remaining 398 counties has not been found. Of the 389 counties in which boil weevil has been found 14 report no damage, 197 little damage, |27 moderate damage, 57 considerable damage, and 94 serious to great damage.
 A total of 34S counties report clean fields, or fields that are in reasonably safe condition in that re- gard, 102 counties report more than 60 per cent of their cotton areas as out of the grass, and 252 counties report more than 60 per cent of their cotton areas as grassy.
 Labor scarcity has interfered with cleaning out and with much needed cultivation. Wages very high. Com plaints plant rank and fruiting poor ly.
