BIG BOULEVARD
PLAN ADVOCATED
Great Street Would Be 10 Miles Long,
1926 Feet Wide, and Parked
on Both Sides En-
tire Distance

A plan to make Vermont avenue a
boulevard from Griffith park to San
Pedro was taken up at the regular
meeting of the North, Northeast and
Northwest Improvement association
yesterday afternoon in the champef
of commerce committee room. A COM
mittee was appointed to further the
work as far as possible.
This proposed work on Vermont ave
nue. has been passed on favorably by
the park commission and by Mayor
Alexander. The plan is to make the
avenue, which is sixteen miles long,
one of the sights of Southern Calltor-
mia by widening it to 125 feet its entlre
length and parking 1T on each slde.
The project is being urged by John j;
Jones, originator of the San Gabrlel
forest reserve. He wants the city 10
build this highway from the noun
tains to the sea in honor or the plo-
neers of Los Angeles.
The association is forwarding a
movement for the Improvement OF
New High street north of sunset
boulevard. A committee will be ap-
pointed today by the president to call
on property owners of this section ana
urge them to tear down some OF the
unsightly shacks along TINS street ana
erect modern buildings.
The Court street hill, one of the
ugliest pieces of territory on the north
side of the city, is to be improved II
the association has it's way. A com
mittee will appear before the city
council the next time. it meets and
request that body to do something 10
take care of the rain water which
sWeeps down onto Broadway from TINS
section every time it rains.
The property owners on Court street
also will be seen and, if possible, per-
suaded to improve this hill something
after the manner of the Third street
hill above the tunnel.
A. Bailie gave a short talk on the
billboard evil. He criticised property
owners who allow advertising signs to
be placed on their property. The I'M
movement association members We're
unanimous in deciding to fight TINS
evil as much as possible in their ter
ritory.
At the next meeting of the associa-
tion two weeks from yesterday, I. w.
Hellman probably will speak before
fhe members. Mr.. Hellman's visit is
being anticipated with pleasure by
them, as it is believed he is soon to
begin some extensive improvements
on the north side of town. In con-
nection with this, the rumor was per-
sistent at yesterdays meeting that
Mr.. Hellman is contemplating the
erection of a ten-story building some
where in the vicinity of the new post
office building, probably at Main ana
Commercial streets.

City Auditor Myers today will call
the attention of the council to one of
the chief difficulties in awarding the

comparison by the department receiv-
ing the articles.
A demand against the fire depart
ment fund of $49.50 for ten dozen
stable brooms sold to the city by the
Ducommun Hardware company, is one
of the instances the auditor will cite
to the council. When these brooms
were purchased the city had contract
with the Globe Sanitary company to
furnish brooms at 81 a dozen. A sam
pie was submitted which was salts
factory to the supply committee, but
the goods, when delivered, were not
up to sample, and the fire department

"The government has opened COM

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-02-25

London, Feb. 25.-Members OF par
Lament today have learned that the
liberals can muster a sufficient vote
on minor measures to secure their
passage in the commons but the slen-
der majority has aroused speculation
as to whether they can carry out the
policies of the government. The first
test came yesterday when Austen
Chamberlain's fiscal amendment was
rejected by a margin of 81 votes. The
result proved encouraging to AS
qulth's supporters. incidentally, the
laborite members voted with the gov
ernrnent. The liberals now believe
the ministry will weather the storm
of coming legislation.
Division was taken amid. a scene of
great excitement. and the figures as
announced were received with tre-
mendous opposition cheering. The
premier having given notice that he
would move on Monday that govern
ment business take precedence over
all other business until March "a, the
house adjourned.
The governments existence now
will depend upon the production OF a
plan satisfactory to the nationalists
and the radicals for dealing in dras-
tic manner with the house Of lords
veto
Freeman's Journal of Dublin this
morning said:
''It cannot be stated with too much
emphasis that the Irish party has not
budged hairs breadth from the
policy which John Redmond has laid
down. Unless the government speed
lily produces a veto scheme and press
ed Il to an issue, the Irish party Will
enter upon a policy Of vigorous oppo-
sition to the government with the re-
suit that the ministry either will be
defeated in a few days or will be con-
tented to eke out a contemplate ex-
istence by the aid OF Balfour's sup
porters."
Freemans Journal further explains
that IL was not out of consideration
for the government that the nation
alists abstained from voting, but be-
cause they did not desire to commit
themselves to a tariff reform or to
take a step that would divert the is
sue of the next election from the
house of lords to the tariff question.
Meetings OF liberal and radical
groups daily are sending deputations
to Premier Asquith urging him to take
a strong line on the veto question.
