Blsmarck's third street improve

the city aualtor was instructed to i'm

be receivedaon three types of paving
sheet asphalt, bituminous concrete

nine miles of the residence district now
is covered, is apparently most favored.
The district to be paved includes

Park avenue, bisecting Custer park,

OF HTS SEAT 4
Right of Socialist Congressman
Under Sentence to Sit
Is Contested

Washington, June 11.-Victor L.
Berger, congressman-elect, challenged
through counsel today, the right to
deprive him of his seat in congress.
The question of jurisdiction was
raised after Chairman Ballinger, in
opening the hearing had expressed
the opinion it was the committees
purpose to 60 into the case from the
beginning and permit. introduction of
evidence by the defense, which was
excluded by the court in which Berger
was convicted and given 20-year SEN
tence for violation of the espionage
act. IN I'll ~ .
Henry S. Cochems of Milwaukee,
Berger's counsel, plainly indicated
that he was prepared to make a long
and vigorous fight in Berger's behalf
and Char Rallinger was just as
insistent that there was no desire on
the part of the committee to railroad
the case or prevent Berger having
full opportunity to present his side.
