FLORIDA DETERMINED
 TO FORBID ROAD SIGNS
Movement to Rar unsightly Ad,er- liscmcnts started Two Years
 Ago ias sprca&

Tallahassee, Florida, Jan. 23,--A movement to eliminate unsightly signs from along the public high ways In Florida, started in Lake county two years ago, has spread so rapidly that 21 of the 63 counties in the state have established regula- uons prohibiting any signs on public sighways except those placed there by authority of the county or state as definite guides.
 The Florida development board. which is the state chamber of com merce, began IS months ago q movement favoring conservation of scenery. Following elimination of the unsightly signs, county beautifi- cation commissions have been or gani2ed in 17 counties.
 Now movement is spreading to replace the road signs with shrubs and flowers in certain locations; else where it is being urged upon the county and state authorities that slaps be taken toward the conserva- ton of natural growth along the public highways where a roadway is under construction, and that right of-ways 100 feet wide be set on tho principal highways.
 Agitation for the conservation Of flnc old trees is resulting in two-day roads in some communities. In many places the county engineer has left the old road on one side of row of magnificent oak trees and has made a new road on the other side rather than take out the trees to widen the roadhed.

CAPITAL OVERCROWDED
There Are Now So Many Places of Amusement in Berlin That They Interfere With Others Business.

Berlin, Jan. '23.--There are today so many places of amusement In the German capital that they interfere with each others business, and but few of them do we'll Financially, Most marked in recent years has been the development of tho opera and the revue. While before the war Berlin had two operas, 1t now has four; while 1t boasted of one re- vue in 1914, six are now competing with each other. ..
 Not included in the 5l theatres running today are Athe movies houses and the cabarets. There were hardly any cinemas in Berlin before the war; now there are 3S0 of them. supplying for the most part Ameri- can films. In 1914 the Idea of a cabaret was associated with but two institutions, the Linden" and the Black Cat" Now there are G2 of them. When restaurant has diffi- cuties in maintaining itself, 1t promptly installs a cabaret in the hope of attracting guests.
 Berlin counts also six vaudeville houses and Il dance places.

.BORAH POWER IN
 FOREIGN AFFAIRS
Position Strengthened by Resis.
 nation Of SeCy. Hughes
(By Charles P. Stewart, NEA
 Service Writer)

Washington, Jan. 2S.-One effect of the cabinet reorganization which has been going on lately has been to place Senator Borah in a position of greatly increased influence.
 The senate foreign relations com mittee chairmanship into which Borah stepped upon the death of Senator Lodge, is important in itself, In the Idaho statesman's case, how eyer it lost something of this im- portance because he and Secretary Hughes disagreed on most questions portance, because he and Secretary insisted on having his own way.
 This was notably the case in the matter of the American attitude toward Russia.
 Borah has maintained from the first that the United States ought tc recognize the Moscow government Hughes has refused positively tc have anything to do with Russia officially so long as the reds re. maincd in control.
 President Coolidge has upheld his secretary of state, but his views or the Russian issue are understood not to be so firmly fixed that he cannot be argued out of them.
 Frank B. Kellogg, who succeeds Hughes after March 1, never has had occasion, as ambassador tC England, to express himself concern. ing Russian recognition, and could hardly have expressed himsell favorably toward it and continued tc hold his, post under Secretar, Hughes. But it is known in offcia circles that privately he share' Borah's ideas on the subject.

porate law and so biased by such as- sociations as, quite honestly. to be unable to see both sides of many cases they had to rule on.
 Stones experience has been more as q teacher of the law.
 Law interests him as a problem, without much regard to the fashion in which 1t can be twisted to make out particular case, Naturally this doesn't suit those who want men trained as special blenders for themselves on the bench.
 It is pretty well settled now that Secretary of War Weeks. Secretary of the Interior Work and Postmaster General New will drop out of the cabinet March 4. Secretary of Agriculture Gore will retire at the same time to become governor of West Virginia. Secretary of Labor Davis is expected to surrender his portfolio before the end of the year.
 There was talk for a time of Sec retary of Navy Wilbur's retirement but not much of 1t is heard now. Robert D, Carey is the likeliest choice to succeed Gore. Hoover may be transferred to another de- partment but will hold one of the portfolios,

Sleeping Sickness
 Changes Character

london. Jan. 2s.--Because sleep Ing sickness has changed the char. acter of children and made some of them criminals. tho authorities are considering the building, of special schools for these youngsters. Chill dren who have suffered from the disease, it Is said, not only change their character, but deteriorate phy- sically and lose control of their emotions.
 Reporting to the Metropolitan asy- lums board, Dr. Charles Glyn says; Tt seems that the disease may pass through q phase in which physical changes arc the only prominent fea-
