Eenort Out Ordinance
The Judiciary committee of the
council recommended that the Green
River ordinance be reported out for
first reading, reworded only to sub
stitute the name Plattsmouth for
Green River, Wyoming, also that the
ordinance be allowed to follow the
usual channels of reading at three
meetings. The committee believed
that the ordinance was enforceable
and lawful, but on the other hand, to
pass it and not enforce it would do
no good. If passed, the committee
pointed out it must be enforced with
out fear or favor. The ordinance was
then read and laid over until the
next regular meeting.
Discuss New Paving
Mayor Lushinsky called upon a
group of paving men present to dis
cus the matter of concrete bond
macadam, Messers McKnight, Black-
man and Niekerson. who. sketched
briefly the manner of paving that is
being used in the Tecumseh job and
which tho members of the council and
any interested citizens were invited
to Inspect so as to judge for them
selves. The party had several speci
men of the paving and which showed
well in comparison with other forms
of concrete paving. Mr. Nickerson
thought that the plan of having reg
ular paving districts created was
much better than trying to handle It
in small units. In the event of WPA
aid on the work he suggested a man
agement contract in which th city
furnished material, the WPA labor
and the contractor machinery needed
and supervision.
The visitors proposed that the
Plattsmouth people who might be in
terested, pay a visit to the work near
Tecumseh and they would be glad to
assist in transportation and give full
explanation of the paving. On the
suggestion of Councilman Webb all
interested are urged to get in touch
with . Mayor Lushinsky or the coun
cllmen and arrange to view the pav
ing. ' '
Chairman Vincent of the license
committee reported favorably on the
application of A. J. Trilety for an
"on" and "off" beer license for his
building at Third and Main streets.
The license was approved by the
members of the council.
Councilman Hall of the claims com
mittee reported that he expected to
secure a settlement on the South
Sixth street sewer between the mem
bers of the district, the city and J. H.
McMaken, who has fixed the sewer
and desired remuneration for his ser
vices. Chairman Vroman of the police
committee reported that all had been
'arranged for policing during the King
Korn Karnlval.
There was some discussion of the
weed problem along the alleys and
on motion the chief of the fire de
partment and the chief of police were
authorized to check over these places
and see that the weeds were cut
A. E. Edgerton, county supervisor
of recreation under the WPA, was
present and discussed the use of the
building on Main street used for re
creational headquarters. Mr. Edger
ton is wishing to establish offices on
the second floor of the building and
asked the assistance of the city in

I'm in business all for myself. I can't afford
to lose customers. The finest way to hold
them, is by having an oil that isn't always
making you add another quart, and keeps
the engine quiet. That's why I specially
want to tell you about my Conoco Germ
Processed oil and the improvement you get.
Now your everyday oil naturally just flows
around. It can't stay up through the engine
all by itself. But Germ Processed oil abso
lutely does. It forms the nearest thing to a
permanent layer of oil a real plating of oil,
which doesn't keep getting all used up. And
it can't ever fail to keep real good lubrica
tion on every last part of your engine, all the
while you use Conoco Germ Processed oiL
