Crisis May Delay
Cut in Warships
Britain Sends Battleships Ia
Near East Instead Of TO
Scrap Heap.

The situation in the Near East
may further delay exchange of
ratification Of the arms conference
naval treaty in the opinion OF ad-
ministration officials.
While none Of the nations party
to the naval limitations treaty are
bound to scrap battleships until
the ratifications are exchanged.
nevertheless. officials here point
out, Great Britain already has sent
some battleships to the Darda-
nelles that are destined for the
scrap heap. and. should hostilities
develop she may be disinclined 10
get rid OF any naval armament iOr
a long time to come.
Such a change of mind by Great
Britain, IT was suggested. would
not hasten ratification of the treaty
by France and Italy. who are the
only signatories yet 10 ratify.
Both Great Britain and Japan have
ratified, as well as the United
States.
For the present. the prospec'
is believed to be merely postpone
ment. Officials are confident that
once the Near East crisis has
passed both France and Italy will
ratify the treaty. Then all five
powers can exchange ratifications
and the Limitation OF armaments
will be in effect.

CONGRESS HEIGHTS
HCHTSFOR $4,000
PAVING ESTIMATES
Triangle in Suburb Will
Be Beautified With
Shrubbery.

Citizens of Congress Heights are
working to save a $40 900 allowance
for paving Nichols avenue.
A committee headed by DR.. Ed
ward 4. Richardson has been in
touch with officials to impress upon
them the Importance of completing
the paving of this thoroughfare.
Nichols avenue, they point out, is
the only direct highway connecting
Congress Heights with the main por-
ton of Washington.
Some months ago a part of the
avenue was paved, approximately a
half mile remaining in a dilapidated
condition. Temporary improvements
are being made on this strip, but
citizens declare no permanent i'm
provement can be made until the
entire avenue is paved.
AS part of the program outlined
Improvement of the triangle formed
by Alabama avenue. Nichols ave-
nue.. and Fifth street has been an
nounced. According to the present
plans this triangle is to be bordered
by concrete coping, inside Of which
VIII be planted shrubs and flowers.
Congress Heights Beauty Spot
has been proposed as name for
the triangle
