.SIGNBOARDS At
BRIDGE TAKEN DOWN
Change Affords Excellent
View of Coal Run
Ravine.

Street Commissioner A. L. Lehman
yesterday had removed from Cleveland
avenue about 1870 feet of sign boards
and the removal of these boards adds
greatly to the appearance Of the ave-
hue in the vicinity OF the bridge.
The removal of the sign boards was
! done by the street, department under
the dtrectien OF ir lehman at the
solicitation OF the Civic department
Of the Woman's Club and through the
cooperation of the McCray system and
D. NJ. ,Osgood who occupied the boards
with large signs.
The boards extended from the South
Side Bridge down the south sd!e OF
Cleveland avenue for distance Of ap-
proximately 100 feet The boards OBJ.
structed the view OF the ravlne and
the South Side bridge to a great extent
and were also somewhat OF menace
to travellers in that the boards obstIuct.
ed view of the bridge approaches.
The boards were taken down yester-
day and since that time scores of per-
sons have remarked on the improved
appearance of this portion OF Cleve-
land avenue. The removal of the
boards gives beautiful veiw of the ra-
vine and the handsome concrete bridge
which crosses 1t.
Portions of the bill boards which ex.
tend further down the ravine were not
removed as they do not obstruct the
view.
Street Commissioner Lehman recent
ly had removed number of insight.
ly bill boards in the vicinity OF the
intersection Of Cleveland avenue with
Locuat avenue and the removal of
these boards was also a great i'm
provement tc that locality.

PARlSSMay 1.-THE German peace
treaty 1t deyeloped today contains a
clause which Nhas not yet been made
public providing that ratification by
Germany and three OF the principal
treaty into force between the ratifying
party enabling the immediate reaump-
ton of trade.
AS the result OF conferences among

1t is reported that the financial and
boundary sections of the document
will be released tonight
The Council Of Foreign Ministers
continued, work today on subsidiary
details of the Austrian treaty having
to do with the new Austrian frontiers.
1t is considered as unlikely that the
treaty will be ready for presentation
to the Austrian delegates before
Wednesday of next week and proba-
bly, not until later.
1t is quite probable that the Turk
ish and Bulgarian peace treatieBS Will
be negotiated and signed In ConstarfAI
tanopie according to Reuters Paris
office.
Negotiations pending the adjust
ment of the Adriatic controversy con-
template a direct settlement between
Italy and Jugo Slayia through Ameri-
can mediation. BY this plan the Aus
trian treaty would not specify the dis
position to be made of Dalmatia,
Istria or Fiume beyond detaching
them from Austria.
