The reproductions of Chippendale

BELGIAN BLOCKS
 MAY BE REMOVED
Campaign to Be Started Soon Against Pavements and Has Good Chance
 of Being Successful

It is probable that an active campaign which is to be started soon to remove the Belgian blocks from the downtown sec tions will prove effective. Commission er James Weatherlyssaid yesterday that if the reported petition was signed by q large number of the property owners he would be in favor of removing the blocks. Commissioner Lane says, without hesitation, that he is opposed to the Bel gian blocks, but is inclined to try some covering rather than to remove them en- tirely. He suggested that if some appli- cation could be made which would smooth over the surface and at the same time retain the Belgian blocks as the founda- tion of the streets 1t might be valuable. President Culpepper Exum is expected to favor the removal although he has not lately given an opinion on the mai ter. The Belgian blocks on downtown streets have caused keen disapproval from some quarters.
 At ono time thel council had adopted an ordinance removing them, but President Exum felt that a postponenient would be proper and the matter was passed over. Since that time the ordinance removing them has been repealed by the commis- sion.
