French Aim
Is to Break
Germ any
British Belief Is That in the
Interest of Civilization Teu-
ton Nation Must Be
Kept Intact.
Finances Cause Strain
BY MARK SULLIVAN.

Paris, July 12.-Great Britain bases
its divergence from France on the
broad ground that, in the interest
of civilization, Germany must be
saved from breaking into pieces, and
charges by implication that Frences
purpose is to break Germany into
pieces. There is much truth in that,
and it is consideration that eclipses
all others. But, there is also in the
present strain between Britain and
France, q financial question.
The question Is intricate, but essen
tia1 to an understanding by an out
slider and a fair apportionment of
merit to each side. In his much dis
cussed question. Marquis Curzon said
10 Premier Poincare in effect, "You
say that reparations must come from
the German a and B bonds. leaving
the c bonds-if and when they be-
come good-to take care Of the debts
due from France to Britain and the
other interallied debts. And he
then tells NJ. Poincare that this is
not satisfactory to Britain
Question of Priority.
Impartial persons, close to the sit
uation. say that Frances position is
just, and that first priority in actual
money coming from Germany ought
TO go toward restoration of the ac.
tual damage done to the devastated
districts. leaving the remainder, il
it should be possible to get any more
from Germany, TO take care of in
terallied debts.
Again. in this exchange Of docu-
ments. Marquis Curzon, with appar-
ent guilelessness, asks How do you
define reparations?" and Premier
Poincare replied, How do you de-
fine them" What this means is
that Poincare wants to know If the
debts due from France to Britain are
TO stand on an equal footing with
restoration of the devastated districts
IS part Of the reparations, OF whether
reparations are to be defined as
meaning primarily restoration of the
actual damage done on the soil of
France and Belgium.
Define Preparations.
To examine the matter from an
other angle, at the Paris peace con-
ference reparations were originally
defined as applying TO the actual
damage to civilization and property"
but later. at the instigation of Britain.
there was added the payment of
soldiers pensions. How much this
meant to Britain is understood. when
It is realized that practically all the
actual damage was done on French
and Belgium soil and very little on
British soil, SO that Britain's only
way TO qualify for getting any con-
siderable share Of reparation money
depended upon insertion of soldiers
pensions
The truth is that France thinks II
is being a little hornswoggled in this
matter of reparations.
Again. Premier Poineare refuses to
assent TO the fixing of reparations by
IN international tribunal, and there
by seems to be in the wrong. But
Poincare's fear is that reparations
based on Germany's capacity to pay
might result in the fixing Of a sum
so small that It would not cover
Frances actual damage. and the fear
that even that small sum might be

PAINT HELPS STEEL BRIDGES
Life Of Many Steel Structures Is Short
ened by Infrequent and I'm.
propeC Attention.

The life Of many steel highway
bridges Is materially shortened be-
cause Of infrequent and improper
painting, says the bureau of public
roads Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Each year a
considerable amount of money is spent
for the replacement Of rusted bridge
members that would have remained
sound If they had been kept painted !;
and more serious than the waste Of
money Is the danger to the public due
to the weakening of some hidden part
which may cause the collapse Of the
whole bridge
Officials of the bureau urge that all
steel bridges be inspected at least once
each year and reprinted at the first
sign Of rusting. Normally repainting
Is required at periods of from two
to five years, depending on the climate.
A suitable paint should be used and If
there is uncertainty about any paint,
information should be requested from
the state highway department
1t is mistake to repaint without
properly cleaning the metal of all dirt,
rust, loose paint, and blisters. Usual
ly the places hardest to reach are the
ones that should receive the most at
tention.

piled without the necessity for piling
on heavy weights AS the load Is in
creased on the arch it defects and the
concrete and steel are deformed or
strained, and the engineer wants to
know how these strains are distrib-
uted.
For the measurement of strains in
the concrete a device known as a
strain guase is being used. With this
device it is possible to detect strains
with an accuracy Of .OO02 Of an inch.
BY carefully measuring the strains
throughout the arch it is possible
to determine the manner in which the
stress is distributed, and it is believed
that through series Of such tests
enough information will be obtained
to enable the engineer to formulate
rules for the economical design Of
skew arches.
In addition to determining the
strains in the arch the observations
include measurements Of detection Of
the arch under load us well as a meas
urement of the stress in the tie rods
between the abutments.

NO CINE ROAD TYPE is BES1
for Traffic of Every Description
Many Considerations.

(FrepRrsd by the Uaited States Department
of Agriculture)
No effort has been made to encour-
age the construction of any particu
lar type OF road in the federal-aid
projects administered by the bureau
Of roads OF the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture. The legal re-
quirement that the roads shall be
substantial in character" has not
been interpreted to mean that only the
most expensive types of roads should
be built. 1t has been recognized that
the heavy and expensive construction
which is necessary in New York,
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania is
not suitable or warranted for the less
exacting traffic of Nevada, Idaho and
the Dakotas.
There Is suitable type of road for
every type of traffic. Granite blocks
are best around wharves and freight
depots; country thoroughfares need
to be better than rural side roads,
lightly Travelled. A number of other
considerations have Influenced the
choice Of type in many cases. 1t is fire.
quently found that suitable local ma
terials may cost less than better mate
rails imported from a distance; ap-
proval Of the use of local materials is
not infrequently given for the purpose
Of encouraging local production. In
parts of the Far West the entire alb
sence of water along right of way,
and the expense Of keeping an adA-
quate supply, often make 1t necessary
to approve the building of type of
construction that can be built without
using large quantities of water.
The initial decision as to the type of
a particular road is made by the state
highway department. The bureau of
public roads makes an Independent
study of the conditions. The most
suitable type of road in the judgment
of the engineers Of the State depart
ment and Of the bureau of public
roads is finally decided upon. The

reflected credit on their taste and skill.
Mrs. Turner's talk was on the sub
ject of improving the health conditions

explain. Under such conditions 1t Is
customary to build what is known as
skew bridge, and when that bridge
Is an arch, the arch is known as
skew arch, the abutments or supports
not being at right angles with the
roadway. When tile abutments are at
right angles to the axis of the arch
the structure is known as right arch.
Engineers can design right arches very
economically, but there is a great diff
ference of opinion with regard to the
economical design of the so-called
skew arch.
The principal difference of opinion
among engineers is with regard to the
manner In which the load is transmit
ted to the abutments. In the right
arch the load on the abutments is the
same for each foot of length, but on
the skew arch this probably Is not the
case, and the important question to be-
settled Is the distribution of the load
from one end Of the abutments to the
other.
1t was with this object in view that
Il series Of tests has been started on
skew arches by the bureau of public
roads. At the present time the bu-
reau has under way at it's Arlington
experiment station test on a skew
arch designed to be one-quarter the
size Of an actual structure. The arch
being tested Is feet in span, AZ feet
in width from face to face, and 4 feet
in height above the base of the abut-
ments. The crown or midpoint is 2
inches in thickness and the barrel of
the arch is reinforced with A-inch
bars bent very carefully into the cor
rect shape.
The arch Is being tested with a uni
form load and this loading Is being
accomplished in unique manner, as
follows: Forty-two spiral springs,
each capable Of carrying load of L.
500 pounds, are placed at uniform In
tervals on top of the arch and each
spring supports a pinch pipe, which
In turn bears against solid overhead
structure. By adjusting the lengths
Of these pipes the springs are DETECTED
and the amount of load applied to the
arch may be controlled by the amount
the springs are compressed. In this
way 1t Is possible to obtain fine adj
justments in the amount Of load APP
