NO DRAIN YET
FOR PARK AVE.
Councilman Peck Informed Col
leagues That Ordinance Would
Be in Next Meeting.
New Lights Installed

In the absence of City Clerk Nehe-
miah Andrews, who is at present in
Toronto, Canada, Walter w. Whitman
acted as City Clerk, at the meeting of
City Council on Monday night. Coun-
Gilman Peck reported that the Park
avenue drainage ordinance was not
ready for introduction at this meeting
as he was awaiting plans and specifi-
cations from the City Engineer. He
promised that this ordinance would
be introduced at the next regular
meeting to meet the situation of dis
posing of surface water in that loca-
ton. Much of the water which will
be carried off by this drain will come
from the Shore Road, which is a
County road, and the Board of Free
holders will be requested to bear a
part of the expense OF installing the
drainage system to run through Green
field, Oakland and Prospect avenues.
This matter has already been receiv-
ing consideration at the hands of the
local Freeholders, Robert M. Willis
and T. Clark Adams. .
The following ordinances were pass
ed on second reading: Governing the
use of the sewerage system and max,
ing connections herewith; regulating
parking of automobiles and other vehi-
cles on Main street; providing for
making excavations in the driveways
of the city for laying conduits, gas
and water pipe or for other purposes.
Councilman Stephenson reported
that the steel main used by the sew
erage system for carrying waste wa
ter from the pumping station to Beach
Thoroughfare was in poor condition
and eventually the city would have to
construct a new main for the purpose.
The present main is owned by Atlantic
City and rented to this city. He also
reported that some of the new lights
recently contracted for had already
been installed and that some changes
in light location were being made to
obtain a better distribution of the
light throughout the city. He had a
motion carried that the lighting com
mittee be authorized to distribute
lights so that they would be located
for the best interests of the city in
general.

OLdl0 auLnOFltloS WOQIQ hesitate TO impose

removed the most important figure in the
republican movement in Ireland next to
Mr.. De Valera. with who. Childers. a man
of strong personality, is generally credit
ed here with having had stror G influence.
To Childers is ascribed perhaps the lead
ing part in engineering the present
armed revolt against the Free State Gov
eminent and he was known as the mill
tary s~trategist, who planned the opera
tons. 1t was to Childers that Mr.. Win
ston Churchill referred. as that mis-
chievous renegade, that Englishmar,
who is inspired by an equal measure of
hatred both for this island and for the
one in which he has now taken up his
atode". The opinion has been frequent
ly expressed in responsible quarters
here that the Free State authorities could
lay their hands on De Valera, as. they
did on Childers at a y time they desired,
but they did not wish to do SO in view of
the possible aftermath. The question,
which Immediately sprang into the minds
of Londoners interested in Irish affairs,
was rather the Irish Republicans would
attempt reprisals and it seemed to be
thought rot unlikely that these would
have to be reckcneG with.

London, Nov. 23rd.-The opening of
the business session of Parliament todaV
quickly revealed what is likely to be the
paramount question in both Houses,
apart from Irish legislation for which the
session was especially called. The key
note of this was struck in the Kings
speech on unemployment. The tenor of
the opposition speeches 10 the debate on
the address was to press the Prime Min
/ ter O receive an unemployed delegation,
this, however, Mr.. Bonar Law seems de-
termined not to do. In a further lepIy

the unemployment question for which no

tion of the line of criticism the Lloyd

Washington, Nov. 23rd. The utter
ances of ex-Premier Clemenceau came
under fire on the floor of the Senate to-
day, in a debate reviving many of the
issues of the Versailles treaty fight and
covering many more recent problems
o. international relationship. Discussing
the mission Of the French wartime Pre-
mier to the United States, begun by
Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, of the
Foreign Relations Committee and the
Wilson administration leader during the g
treaty debate, with a speech declaring
that M. Clemenceau's} attitude toward
Germany had been such, as to detract
somewhat from the effectiveness of his
appeals to the people of the United
States. while M. Clemenceau has not
been known as an extreme militarist. as
compared with the P"oincare and some
other statesmnn', said Senator Hitch
cock, The has established a reputation
for representing an entirely ha sh policy
toward Germany" The Nebraska Sena-
tor added that his purpose was not so
much to criticize M. Clemenceau, but
rather the policy of the French Govern
ment toward Germany. Senator Borah,
Idaho, leader of the irrecOnciliable Op-
position to the Versailles treaty, which
M. Clelnenceau thinks the United States
should help to enforce. issued a state
ment b'untly charging that M. Glenn
enceau, himself. as the man, who d0min-
ated the Paris peace conference, was
chiefly responsible for the very condi-
tions of misery and restitution in Eu-
rope, which he is complaining about.
Senator Hitchcock called upon M. Gem
enceau to explain to the American peo-
pie, why the French Government main
tains &c. 900 black troops on the kline.
He wanted to know particularly, he said,
whether the French are deliberately
trying to provoke the Germans into war
fire. The Senator commented as follows:
Senator Caraway. (Arkansas). France
sent aD envoy to the United States once
before in an effort to enlist aid for the
revolutionary Government. That envoy
was sent home. M. ~Clemenceau's speech
would have been a good one, if conditions
