The proposed modi Borland street-paving s is an important measure to the prop- erty owners of the District. Pra 11 of the citizens ciations m time to time gone on rec- i since it on of the ssment law An opportun several lo the Senate ¢ ing the bill to codify the laws of the United States, but if that should be disposed of early it is planned to take up bills on the calendar. * Among the District bills on the cal- endar are: To create a separate Public Utilltles Commission, to au- thorize a new Police Court Buflding and to authorize a nurses’ home at Columbia Hospital. The District Commi oners sent to Chairman Capper of the Senate Dis- trict committee yesterday a favorable report on the bill. “The Commi ers are strongly of the opinion that it is inequitable that abutting property owners should have 1o pay for the repaving of the road- ront of thelr properties when 1t as jbeen worn out by traffic in which fhey have no pecuniary inter- est,” said the report, “There has been, and s, a very strong public sentiment favorable to the entire repeal of the so-called Bor- land amendment, under which assess- ments are made against abutting property owners for paving and re- paving. The elimination by the House | of the 20-vear limitation contained in the bill as originally worded was a marked improvement, as it is mani- fest that it would be inequitable to relieve property owners of the cost of replacing the pavement at the end of 19 years, for example, and not re- lieve them should the pavement last a year or two longer. “In view of the fact that the entire repeal of the Borland amendment would receive little support in Con- gress, 1t is belleved that the bill pro- viding for its amendment should be enacted, so as to provide all rellef which the property owners can secure at this time.” CHARLES H.

He appealed to Foreign Minister Chamberlain to make a fresh move to negotiate a commer- cial treaty with Russia and declared that renewal of friendly relations with the Soviet government would be the best means of curbing propa- ganda. Former Premier Lloya George sald that while the Russian government, under the trade agreement, had done many things which he deeply re- gretted, he was glad that Great Britain’ had stood by the agreement. This accord on the whole had worked well for the interests of industry. Lioyd George ridiculed the ‘Blue Book, issued by the government yes- terday, in which Russian corre- spondence purporting to show Soviet activity in Great Britain was made public. He sald that while there was a lot of talk about Russian gold pour- ing into_England, the correspondence indicated the greatest lack of funds in Russia itself.
