Progress changes Washington diplomatic landmarks fade
Washington March 3 The old diplomatic landmarks in the national capital are giving way to progress. The British embassy moves from lower Connecticut Avenue to a modern site near the Naval Observatory while the Austro Hungarian building becomes a cleaning shop. Embassies for Czecho Slovakia Egypt Estonia Finland Latvia Lithuania and the Serbs Croats and Slovenes join new legations after the war. The German embassy remains downtown and Japan's ambassador still resides on Franklin Street. Historic houses such as Mrs Surratts and Slidell are replaced by a radio shop and the Chamber of Commerce respectively.
