LABOR NEUTRAL i TO AVOID SPLIT OVER WAIGN Rival Groups Divided Within on Hoover or Al, Shun Indorsement. Bu Times Special WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—Picture two strange and normally pugnacious bulldogs circling around each and maintaining strict neutrality because they are uncertain where a fight once started would end, and you will have an idea ot the brand of neutrality which dominates the leading United States labor organizations in the present campaign, according to labor leaders here. While the leaders of both the American Federation of Labor and the railway brotherhoods have placed their organizations in the neutral coluihn during the present campaign, it is asserted that it is the very absence of. neutrality in their ranks that makes this necessary. They are split into Smith and Hoover camps from top to bottom, and leaders here assert that an organization indorsement of either of these candidates by national organizations would precipitate serious internal rows. “The national labor organizations are divided in the campaign along exactly the same lines as voters generally,” one of the prominent leaders in the neutrality movement said today, “and an indorsement of either candidate by these organizations easily might result in disastrous warfare within their ranks.”

“It is not lack of interest that is keeping so many labor organizations on the fence in this campaign,” he said. “It’s rather too much interest.” Some leaders of the “neutral” labor organizations already have expressed their personal preferences in the presidential campaign, and more are expected to as the campaign advances. David Robertson, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, has announced that he personally favors Hoover, as has William N. Doak, vice president of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. President William Green of the equally “neutral” American Federation of Labor just has indicated marked personal sympathy with

BAN PARIS TAXI HORNS AT NIGHT AS HEALTH AID Nervous Diseases Linked to Nocturnal Noises by Scientists. By NEA Service PARIS, Aug. 31—The latest battle of Paris is a battle against the noises of the night. M. Jean Chiappe, prefect of police. has taken the first official action to put the soft pedal on Paris nights. He has given orders that drivers of taxicabs and other automobiles must slow down at street crossings between the hours of 1 and 5 in the morning, instead of dashing at illegal speed across intersections of streets tooting their horns. Paris by night has become almost as noisy a? Paris by day because of the blasts of automobile horns. M. Chiappe has instructed his men that a howling horn indicates excessive speed and that they should take stern measures. The action of the prefect of police followed an investigation by scientists who were called upon to deal with the situation that is depriving Parisians of sleep by night and sweet dispositions by d£ty. It has been discovered that those so afflicted are suffering from somnifugousness, or the state of having sleep driven away. In their behalf the anapausists are rallying. This resurrection of obsolete terms indicates the seriousness of the situation which, the scientists say, prevails in London, New York

and other large cities just as it does in Paris. Dr. Berillon, distinguished neurologist, says that the problem is of the highest importance because it affects the health of all of us. “When his work is done a human being needs rest and quiet,” he said. “This he does not get in Paris now, chiefly because of the countless automobile horns. These auto horns keep up an infernal racket all during the day and night. “Nocturnal noises unquestionably are a source of nervous disease. The study of their cure is an old one known as anapausie. The study of anapausie is the study of repose. It endeavors to produce the necessary relaxation for muscles and nerves. It has found that constant excitation of the organs of hearing by noise amounts to nothing more or less than persecution. “All men are prey to ti. Once in a while you come across a man who could sleep in the midst of noise. Napoleon apparently was one of these. But they are not many.” 1,200 Youths Report for Army ROME, Aug. 31.—Out of 1,300 youths called for military service this year only thirty-four failed to report. And severrl of the absentees had been excused from duty.
