A ssE sSNENTS
QUESTIONED

The District Commissioners will
be called on today to decide their
future action in regard to enforcing
the Borland law for street assess
ments under an opinion rendered
several weeks ago by the District
Supreme Court.
The Commissioners yesterday re-
ceived an opinion from Corporation
Counsel Francis IA. Stephens on the
courts decision. This will be used
as guide in setting future policy.
The District Supreme Court. in
the case Of Johnson VS.. Rudolph,
decided against the Commissioners.
The Commissioners were uncertain
whether this case set precedent
and made future assessments under
the law invalid or not and asked
the corporation counsel to decide.
His opinion declared that all as
sessmeints of abuting property for
street improvements are Of doubtful
legality where the assessments are
levied on the basis Of front footage
and where the depth Of the lots
affected is not equal.
He pointed out, however, that no
general rule can be laid down for
the application of the Borland law
and acting on this theory the Com
missioners may decide to enforce
the law except where Individual as
sessrnents are invalidated by the
courts -.

". VA. FEARS NO
COAL STRIKE

FAIRMoNT. w. Va, March 25.-
Van A. Bittner, international or
ganizer Of the United Mine Work
ers Of America, expressed confidence
today that he would be able April /
to call out half OF the $4,000 soft
coal miners employed in the north.
ern West Virginia field.
The operators today discounted
Bittner's claim. They pointed out
that he has taken out but 5000
men in the last three years and that
these men have been replaced
speedily with non-union miners,
many OF whom drifted in from Ohio
and Pennsylvania.
The operators think they can
more than offset the number OF
strikers with more men from the
central field. When there is a long
suspension, 1t is the habit of some
union men to take an assumed
name and go to work in non-union
mines.
West Virginia is rejoicing over
the prospect Of a suspension in the
unionized bituminous fields.
The longer the tie-up the happier
the West Virginia operators will be.
They look forward to increased pro.
duction and higher prices while the
union mines are shut down.
