Houston Street Paving Urged By City Property Owners
Property owners on Houston street press a revival of paving from the Candler Building to Highland or Moreland avenues. The effort, backed by Wade Davis and C. We McClure, follows the Leland hotel remodeling project costing 75 000 to 100 000 dollars. Aiming to extend Houston street to James street, the plan would create a cross-town artery linking Highland avenue to central city and improve travel to Williams and Orme streets. The street committee has previously passed the project, and a vigorous campaign is anticipated to push it through before summer.

In St Louis on February 23 the government filed injunctive action against the Southern Pine association with 61 corporations and 69 individuals for alleged Sherman anti trust violations. The suit seeks a permanent injunction that would dissolve the group, accusing it of curtailing production to raise prices and boosting profits from $6,412 thousand feet in 1918 to $30.35 in 1920. A March 19 hearing date was set by Judge Faris. Directors of the Southern Pine association meet in Chicago on March 1 to decide actions, with J E Rhodes stating the group does not regulate prices or production and denying involvement in price fixing.
