Judge Willis not only sustained
demurrers filed by attorneys for
Borton and Maggert, but held that
defects in the indictments could not
be cured by re-submission of the
matter to the Los Angeles county
grand jury.
This was said to mean the end
of the case, so far as any criminal
prosecution was concerned; the eX-
oneration of the bail and the dis
missal of the charges against the
four accused men.
Judge willis said the players, in
signing contracts with the teams
had entered into an agreement to
play baseball to the best of their
ability. But, he continued, admit
ting for the sake of argument they
lad not done so. their act amounted
only to a breach of a civil contract

"actionable as a criminal cause. :
He declared the action Of the
men, If they were guilty, was most
repre5ensibld, but there was no
remedy along the lines of criminal
prosecution.

Rail Terminals Blamed
For Freight Congestion
Manufacturer Says Additional
Rolling Stock Would Make
Confusion Worse

Freight congestion is in reality ter
minal congestion, in the opinion of a
leading truck manufacturer. He de-
clares the present railroad situation
demonstrates that the root of the much
discussed railroad lnadequacy lies more
in the lack Of termina! facilities than
it does in the lack of freight cars. it
has further proved, he adds, that the
motor truck, properly used in coniunc-
tlon with railroad terminals, can re-
lieve terminal congestion and increase
the productivity Of each unit Of the
railroads rolling stock
"Although it is estimated that the
railroads of the country" says this
manufacturer, "now need 100000 more
freight cars, it is obvious that if this
number of cars were put into service
under existing terminal conditions, the
confusion would only be increased.
Cities have grown and traffic in
creased, but the terminals have re-
mained practically unchanged so far as
distribution radius is concerned. AS
{. result. the railroads are still attem pt-
ing to operate on a horse drawn basis
OF ultimate distribution, and conse-
quently freight piles up in the yards
and the tracks are filled with +rains
awaiting their turn to be unloaded. The
platform area available for transfer
ring shipments from the freight car
to the truck is so confined that it is
impossible to avoid congestion"

portation is to be anticipated and pro-
vided for, in the opinion of numerous
engineers who have submitted ideas and
suggestions for the building of the
Ideal Section" Permanent monolithic
pavement for such highways as are un-
der consideration is the almosc unanl-
nous verdict of those so far heard from.
II. {. Ostermann, vice-presdent and
field secretary of the association, who
left this city recently on the western
end of his seasonal trip over the ma
tional highway, told the State Highways
Department of Pennsylvania that he
considered the thoroughfare in good con-
dition in view of the hard winter and
the nature of the traffic now using the
in Pennsylvania.
Macadam Roads Fail
"Under modern traffic." said Mr. Os-
termann, "it is folly to expect that
road will stand up The recent
tie-up in railroad traffic sent some pro-
digious loads over the highways in the
eastern part of the United States.
Pennsylvania will have many more de-
tours on the Lincoln Highway during
1920 than it had in 1919. In a noun
famous country such as Pennsylvania
1t is not feasible to construct half the
road at time, and consequently detours
are absolutely necessary"
Mr.. Ostermann said the Lincoln High
way IN New Jersey was carrying a VOL
ume of freight traffic heavier than he
had ever before noted.
