Borough Council Passes 0rdi-
nance to Go Ahead With
Main Street Paving Work.

tBy Evening News STAFF Correspondent
METUCHEN, June 1.-Two i'm
portant matters Of business that
were taken up at the meeting of the
borough council last night were the
passing of an ordinance for the paw
ing of Main street from Amboy ave-
nue. to the s~outherly borough line
ind the adopting of a grade on North
Main street from Middlesex avenue
to the northerly borough line. In
the case of the latter, objections
were made to the change of grade
by many OF the residents of the sec
ton who were present and contend
ed that the grade had been estab-
lished some years ago in conforma-
ton with which, sidewalks have al
ready been laid. 1t was decided that
IL the established grade was fixed at
a previous time, the borough will
pay for the relaying of the walks,
otherwise, the property
themselves will be responsible for
the change.
A large delegation waited upon
the council in reference to the grad
ing of South Main street. to have
many points upon the subject made
clear to them. The work in this
case is to be done by the borough,
the property owners not being COM
peeled to go to any expense. 1t is
not yet known just what material
Will be used for the new pavement,

face, a concrete base and a warren
lite top and a stone base and an
nmacite top is certain. The prop
erty owners will be notified to make

mediately as these connections must
be made before the work of paving
commences.
The attitude of the council in ref
crence to the plans OF the Public
Service in reference to the part of
the work which this company must
do in the paving was made clear
EAST night. According to the bor-
Ugh attorney, and endorsed by the
itire council, the Public Service is
kponsible for paving the space
veen the tracks and fer two feet
each side The company will be
fled that the work must be done
them Immediately. and if any
iibi Is offered, the council will pro-
coed with the work itself, and the
company will have to bear the con-
sequences.
Letters were read before the
council in reference to the condi-
ton of Lincoln avenue and George
street and attention was called to
the situation. especially after a
heavy rain. 1t was told that vehi-
cles Of all kinds sink into the mud
almost up to the hubs after a down.
fall, and the council approaching
the condition, left the matter in the
hands Of the street committee with
the power to act.

BRITISH TROOPS
ENTER S|LES|A
Assume Control of GleiWitz--
Report That Tracks Had
Been Mined is False.
fBy The Associated Press

OPPELN, Silesia, June 7.-De-
tachments Of the Royal Irish Infan-
try. the first British troops to eros
the lines established by Polish in
surgents at Upper Silesia, detrained
at Gleiwitz yesterday. They assumed
control of the city. and will be in
charge OF the garrisoning and polic-
ing of the place in the future.
As the troops consisting of one
battalion with full field equipment
entered Gross-Strehlitz, northwest of
Gleiwitz. it encountered the first Po-
lish outpost. Machine guns had been
trained on the station, but they
withdrew and were not seen again.
The train was held for some time
so that officers could investigate the
report that the tracks had been
mined. The report was false and
the train pursued without being mo-
Tested.
While the troops were on the way
to the storm center in Upper Silesia.
General Won Hoefer, commander of
German defense organizations,
bluntly declined to comply with the
French Ultimatum to withdraw his
forces from the front. He promised
to prevent further advance by Ger
mans unless provoked by Poles.
1t has been learned by allied Off
Gals that from 5000 to 1000 Ger
mans liberated from the territory
taken over by the defense organize
ton, volunteered to fight against the
Poles.
The British will gradually relin-
quish the policing of the district.
The British troops will extend
their authorities northward through
the occupied area, disarming the
Poles as they proceed.
1t is realized this will fail to dis
arm any considerable portion OF the
population. .
Even after the supreme council
decides how the companies shall be
partitioned 1t is considered certain
that neither the German population
will remain quiet.
The continued advance of the
German volunteers whose strength
is growing Is expected. In this
event the British plan to garrison

,mmend to Ne board that a fine
~$75 be imposAd, but the mayor
I'd not as yet referred the matter
"a the board as a whole.
Eat that point of the discussion AL
'derman Clark charged that one of
the aldermen had uttered a "nefar-
tous lie" in saying that the matter
would have been amicably settled but
for the fifth ward alderman.
Alderman Clark heatedly declared
that tbe only ones present when this
matt9r was discussed behind closed
doors were the seven aldermen and
heAcharged hat one of them had
lt4d in speaking of his attitude to-
yards this case when the caucus had
/been completed. He mentioned 40
4 names.
The fifth ward alderman charged
that the other members of the board,
with the exception of Alderman Pat
ten. had opposed the granting of the
other 500 bonus to the city's police
when it was discussed in committee
session. but had changed their vote
at the regular meeting so that all
favored it.
: Alderman Waters answered that
he did not change his vote
hundredth as many times as did AL
derman Clark and that the only rea-
son he voted for an additional po-
lice bonus was because it was his
understanding that the increase had
been promised the police at the be-
ginning of the year. If it was a new
measure just coming up, the second
ward alderman said. he would not
vote for it, as he did not believe IN
increase or bonuses should be grant
ed now.
