THE PAVING SITUATION.

Contractor Terry, who has put in
every hour possible that the bad
weather of the past week would per-
nit, has little prospect of finishing
the contract in the business district
Tor concrete paving at amy time soon
First avenue, South, between Fourth
and Sixth streets, has been ready for
the concrete work for the past two
weeks, with no cement in sight. He
has a bill for one car which will
probably arrive this week, but this
will not complete the paving on Col
lege street in the business area.
He estimates that it will require
probably eight more cars to complete
the uptown work and where they will
come from he cannot say Concrete
in stock at Greenville was appealed to
but the owners refused to surrender
it as We're other sources of supply.
The outlook is that it will be sew
eral weeks before the business section
is completed Of paving, to say nothing
Of the paving of the residential dis
trict which is being agitated.

REPEAL OF WAR !
LAWS VOTED, IL
BY THE HOUSE
Lever and Trading With Enemy Acts
Untouched.

Neutrality-suspicious. 5;-Ah war 1aws,s
excepting the Lever food control act,
and the trading with the enemy act,
would be repealed bya resolution
adopted by the House, 1913 to 3. The
only negative votes were cast by
Representative Garrett and Sims of
Tennessee, and yelling of Utah, all
Democrats.
Approximately 60 laws, most Of
them comforting broad discretionary
authority on the president as long as
the technical state of war continues,
would be removed from the statute
books by the resolution.
With the House action the repeal
resolution was sent to the Senate,
where action on it is expected before
the adjournment of Congress Satur-
day. House Democrats predicted that
President Wilson would approve the
measure, Representative Connally of
Texas asserting that the president
was first to suggest the notification
of the war acts. The Texas member
added that the Democrats were ready
to override a veto If necessary.
The retention of the Lever act was
explained by Representative Walsh,
Republican, Massachusetts, in charge
of the repeal legislation, as necessary
TO give the government an effective
law for curbing profteering in neces-
stiles, including food and fuel. He
added that the trading with the enc
my act should be continued to regu-
late trade with Germany.
Representative Igoe, Democrat
Missouri, however questioned the
Republicans decision to continue the
Lever act asserting that Certain in
terests" desire to keep the law in eff.
feet because it had proved "effectiv,
in anti-strike legislation" He vainlA
sought to have the act included among
those repealed, but was defeated
through parliamentary tactics.
