PETITION COUNCIL FOR

OTHER PETITION ASKS FOR I'M
PROVEMENT OF BOTH
VIADUCTS.

Property holders along Nelson and
Farragut streets, the two main thor
oughfares leading back from the main
entrances of the United States Naval
Station, are circulating a petition to
be presented to the Mayor and the City
Council for the improvement of these
two streets, together with a connect
ing street near the Outfall drainage
canal, known as Barataria avenue. The
petition asks that they be allowed to
avail themselves of the privileges
granted by Act No. 50 of the General
Assembly of the State of Louisiana,
session of 1916, so that these thorough
fares may be improved by constructing
central roadway sixteen feet wide,
with a six-inch foundation of coarse
rock or Stag and a siX-inch wearing
surface of concreting, gravel, ebert or
clam shell. More than 80 per cent of
the property holders along this street
favor the improvement of the thor
which will be sent to the council in

A petition is also being circulated
asking the Mayor to request the South
ern Pacific Company and the Algiers
Railway and Lighting Company to re-
pair the surface of the two viaducts in
accordance with the franchise grant
/ ing the use of these thoroughfares.
If we are not mistaken, the city q
New Orleans has nothing to do with
the upkeep or repair of the two via
ducts.
The franchise granting the Algiers
Railway and Lighting Company the
right to cross the viaduct also car
ried with it an obligation of maintain

work but the roadway surface as we'll

up to the Southern Pacific Company
which about year ago placed an en-
tire new covering of plank on the via
duct, but these have been badly worI

The complaint against the Newton
street viaduct is that the construction
of the planks along this thoroughfar
makes the road an ordinary corduro
d, road and it is generally objected tc
especially by automobile owners an
those who have teams hauling cor

SEES WORST OF CRISIS
In GERMANY MASTERED

EcrliD. Jan. 25.-"Nou may be
sure that the German people al
ready have mastered the worst of
the crisis and that eventually the
great secret of how. to make good
after its present defeat will be
found" said Philip SCheidcmann,
Majority Socialist leader and mem
Der of the Ebert government, to-
day.
He Indicated that now the cleo
ton is over. Germany is making a
desperate attempt to set her house
in order and especially to combat
unemployment by forcing city idIeTs
to return to the provinces.
Il quite understand" said Herr
SCheidemann. that the people
abroad look toward Germany with
a certain unCasincSS and fear that
1t will be difficult for US to pull
ourselves out Of the awful situation
which the war and the end of the
war brought us.
Work and still more work-that
must be our reply to the misfortune
that has happened to US. You are
quite right to be skeptical with re-
gard to the strike fever which has
seized a great part of the Germa n
workmcn. This undesirable fact is
also a source Of uneasiness to the
government. Nevertheless. / hope
we shall be able to overcome it,"

worked out by nature. The cuckoo,
he said, would take its own eggs and
place them in the nest of warbler,
knocking the eggs OF the latter to
the ground. He showed how the un-
suspecting warbler matched the eggs
and how, after they were hatched,
the young cuckoo pushed the young
of the warbler from the nest, leaving
them to die on the ground

mice and eating them whole. Another
