The same act which provides for

city specifies the streets 10 be inn
proved with the fund. In general
way 1t will provide an improved
thoroughfare through the city from
the north corporation line near the
top mill to the southern end OF the
city at the Wheeling Benwood corpor-

and west from the Peninsula bridge
across the Island to the back-river
bridge, and another from the eastern
city limits on Caldwell's run to con-
meet with the improved north-and-

Several weeks ago City Manager
Nagle told the council that owing to
prices of material, scarcity OF labor
and attending war conditions, it
would be inadvsable to attempt the
improvement this year, but that 1t
was planned rather TO bank the fund
and derive the benefit of interest un-
til conditions are more favorable for
doing the work.

INSURANCE BILL
CONTINUED Prom Pirst FASs.)

nrovide n substitute for the present PEN
sion law as it would apply to men en-
eaRed in this war a new system OF allot-
ments and compensations which Will
nroyidc for dependents OF the soldiers
and rchabilitate men upon their return
from the war.
I-pon enlistment under the provisions
of the bill. IL soldier or sailor would De
entitled to take out from $1,000 to slo.-
600 worth Of optional insurance at ap-
proxlmatcly IS per $1,000. HIS depen-
dents would be entitled to allolments
from the government Of from IS to $50
Der month and an equal amount up 10
SIS per month from his pay.
Death or total disability resulting, tho
dependents of any person in the military
or naval service. including women mem
hers of the nurse corps. would be entitled
to compensation ranging from NV 10 NV
per month and the insurance.
In case Of total disability, the injured
persons would be paid from $40 to @lOo
per month.
Elimination of the committee compen-
sation provisions came unexpectedly. No
serious opposition to them was promised
until Representative Black of Texas,
suddenly began assailing the salary
basis proposal as a most un-democratlc
thing TO impose upon an army fighting
for democracy. He quickly won sup
portcrs and his proposal to eoualize the
benefits OF. all classes was adopted al
most unanimously. Representative Alex
andcr, of Missouri, opposed the Black
amendment on the ground that FAMILY
should benefit from the death or disao!l-
ity Of their support In accordance with
his earning capacity.
Amendments adopted would give
claimants ten years instead Of one In
which to file their claims for compcnsa'
ton; prevent divorced wives who have
remarked from sharing in dependents
allowance and eliminate proposed salary
increases for present employees OF the
government who are to administer GER
tain provisions Of the measure.
Opinions differ as to the cost OF ap-
plyInE the measure. The first year ap-
precipitation Is $176.000,0o0 but 1t Is de-
clarcd by some that this will not be
nearly enough. Representative Gillett
of Massachusetts acting republican
leader, declared that the second year
cost of administration probably would
be near $4,000. 100000.

FREIGHT EMBARGO
Placed on Shipments Between Wheel
ing and Observation-Disclosures
Embargo Lifted.

Wheeling will shortly begin 10 feel
at least a part of the hardship Of war,
for an embargo has been placed on all
freight between PittSburg and Wheel
ing. excepting pershable goods and
material needed for government use,
by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
With thiS embargo in force. the for
mer one existing between Wheeling
and Baltimore has been lifted. but
with little effect so far as imports
from that point 10 Wheeling is con-
cerned, for there is still an embargo
in force prohibiting the shipment OF
goods out of the Maryland city.
Baltimore and Ohio railroad Of
hcials deny the rumor that they have
placed an embargo on freight in less
than carload lots west of Pittsburg.
Congestion OF traffic Is said by the
officials to have forced them into this
position.
At present there Is no Indication Of
congestion on the Wheeling division.
