ALDERMEN ACT
ON Z PROBLEMS
Amboy Ave. Paving and R. R.
Crossing Elimination Ac-
ton This Week
PLAN THREE SESSIONS
Will Go to Trenton to Confer
on Amb0y Avenue
Paving
PLAN THREE SESSIONS

The aldermen have before them
this week two matters of great inn
portance which will necessitate the
holding of two adjourned meetings,
in addition to the regular session
tonight. The paving of Amboy ave.
nue. from Myrtle street to the city
line and the grade crossing elimin-
alton here are the two big projects
which now confront the council.
1t is not likely that the aldermen
will take any action tonight on the
Amboy avenue paving proposition as
they will await the outcome of a
conference which the aldermanic
street committee, consisting oi
Thomas Patten. Albert G.. Waters
and John j. Clark, together with
Alderman-at-large Richard ]. Gal
vim, will have with the State High
row.
Alderman Calvin has announced
that when tonight's meeting ad-
journs it. will do SO to meet again
Wednesday night for the purpose of
taking action of the Amboy avenue
paving. This action will depend
upon the information secured at
Trenton tomorrow. If the alder
men learn tomorrow that they will
secure state as well as county aid in
paving the road. the action taken
by them wednesday night will con-
sist of passing a resolution request
ing the county to return the road
to the city.
It is believed that the grade cross
ing elimination matter will be talked
over at both tonight's and Wednes-
day nights meeting as the next
hearing before the Public Utility
Commission will be held in their
Newark offices Thursday morning.
The city has submitted its latest
plans, the railroads have branded
them as impraeticable and the al
dermen have decided to fight for the
features embodied in these plans,
which were prepared by F. l.. Smith,
to Alderman-at-Large
Calvin. The railroads will oppose
them and declare they are ready to
go ahead with their case. A large
delegation from Perth Amboy is ex-
pected to attend Thursdays hearing.
Engineer Charles A. Meade, OF the
Public Utility Commission, who has
been acting as arbitrator in the con-
ferences between railroad and city
engineers and attorneys, VIII hkeiy
offer as a compromise his own plans
which would give the city more than
the railroads offer in their own plans
but would not give the city all that
is asked for in Engineer Smiths lay
out.
When the aldermen adjourn We'd
nesday night it will be to meet again
on Friday night At this meeting
reports will be received of the action
taken by the freeholders on the day
on the Amboy avenue
paving matter and also on the out
come of the grade crossing nearing
at Newark on Thursday.
There Is a large amount of busi-
ness to come before the aldermen to-
night and a busy and lengthy ses-
sion is anticipated.

ing east on Gordon street by a car

Until late last night Chief Tonne
sen had an extra squad of trafhc
men on duty. Practically the en-
tire police department participated
in the soldier memorial, those not
directing traffic marched at the head
of the funeral procession. The day
was featured by the few arrests the
police found it necessary to make
for violation of the automobile laws.
The detective force was on duty
among the crowds watching the SOL
dier ceremony and reports an ex-
tremely orderly crowd, with not even
a pickpocket operating. Operatives
of the department covered trolley
and bus terminals and when they
closed up the shop for the day there
was not a robbery or an attempt
noted on the report books, Captain
Lawrence III. Long said.

SOLEMN TRIBUTE TO C|TY'S SOLDIER dead
RUSSIAN-CERMAN
treaty CAUSES GREAT
GENOA SENSATION

GENOA. April II (By The Associ-
ated Press). = Premier Facta of
Italy, as president of the economic
conference, issued a sudden sum-
mons this afternoon for a conference
at 3 p. IN. of the heads of the pow
ers now in Genoa. 1t is believed
one reason for the calling was an
nouncement of the signing of the
Russo-German treaty.
The announced object of the meet
Ing was to adjust by consultation the
allies attitude toward the Russian
question.
The Japanese were included in the
invitation.
The treaty signed yesterday. it is
stated represents the completion OF
negotiations begun many months
ago. This action by the delegates to
the conference. is meeting independ-
emily and negotiating outside the
conference itself is pointed to as es-
tablishing a striking precedent for
the nations who are participating in
the discussion of the Russian prob
lens here.
In connection with the mutual re-
nunciation of naturalization of
property claims and war claims, the
treaty expressed the hope that other
powers would do likewise.
Announcement of the signing of
the treaty came as a huge surprise
to the conferees, and it was pointed
to by observers as likely to make
more difficult the prediction of some
of the other allies in their attitude
toward Russia.

Brest-Litivosk pact, which was hu-
milizing the leaders. Germany is
the first power to grant Russia recog-
milton. Poland has long had diplo-
