THE HOUSING

PLATTSMTH
GREAT NEED OF HOMES TO AC
COMMODATE THOSE DESIRING
TO LOCATE HERE .
NEBRASKA CITY HAS A PLAN
Otoe County City Forms Housing
Company to Care for Needs of
Homes in That City.
From Monday's liaily.
One of the big needs of this com
niunity as has been pointed out sev
r:il times bv the members ol" the
Commercial club is that of more res
idence property where persons desir
ing to locate in the city may do so
And the lack of suitable residences
: mid limnes has comnelled many to
pass up the opportunity of locating
in l'lattsmouth. "With the increasin
, force at the Burlington stiops and the
ceneral demand for labor at good
wages there have been many desir-
ous ol locating in the city but have
been stopped In." the fact that they
wiiild not find suitable homes for
their families.
Our neighboring city of Nebraska
City has been up against the uiine
nrounsition as has IMattFinonth in the
way of suitable residences and they
have hit on a plan tnal looks good tc
relievo the shortage and prove a very
i nrofitable home investment. The
following taken from the Nebraska
Cirv News describes the meeting of
the Commercial club of that city and
the plan that was decided upon to
handle the housing problem:
"At the meeting of the 15. M. A
last evening Secretary augnu in an
emphatic manner called attention to
the fact that the growth of Nebras-
city was hampered on account of
the housing problem. He said that
the city could not continue to grow
unlets places for people to live were
provided. 'Yov. can fill a bucket of
water.' he said, 'but when you pour
in some more you lose the overflow."
He called the attention to several in
dustries that were anxious to come
to this citv, but they would not make
the move unles they were assured
that homes could be found for their
employe-;. This led to an animated
discussion, and the result was that e
meeting of the directors was called
for today, they having dinner at
Brown's restaurant, and then pro
ceeded to take the necessary steps to
ward orsraniizing a builders' asocia
tion.
"Some time a so the directors at
tempted to organize such an associa
tion but it was permitted to go to
sleep, but now it promises to develop
into something tangible. At the meet
ing today articles of incorporation
were adopted, of which the following
is the substance:
"The name of the corporation will
be the Home Builders' association of
Nebraska City and the nature erf the
business to be transacted by said
corporation shall be the building of
houses for residence purposes, in Ne
braska City and vicinity, and to pro
vide an easv manner for those who
are unable to buy homes to acquire
the same bv purchase, lease, ex
change or otherwise, and to sell, con
vey, mortgage or lea.se and otherwise
dispose of any real or personal prop
erty so acquired. aTtol take security
on any property so sold for the un
paid part of the purchase price
thereof by mortgage or otherwise.
and to arrange for the payment of
any balance due thereon on such
terms and conditions as may be nec
essary, expedient, or advisable.'
"The business of said corporation
shall be conducted by five directors,
who shall be elected by the stock
holders. The officers shall be a pres
ident, vice president, secretary and
treasurer, who shall be chosen by
the board of directors.
"The association is empowered, if
deemed advisable, to borrow money,
from time to time, in such amount
as it is deemed proper to enable it
to transact its business, buying and
selling property as above designated.
"The authorized capital is ?r0.00n
in shares of $100 e.ich, to be sub
scribed and paid for as required by
the board of directors: provided, how
ever, the corioration may commence
business as soon as ten per cent of
the capital stock has been subscribed
and paid in.
"Since the above was put in tppe.
it was decided to change the name
of the association, and it- will be
known as the Nebraska City Hous
ing company. T'ke incorporators win

From Monday's Dally.
There was filed Saturday after
noon in the office or cierK 01 me

entitled Louis Lustgarten vs. Kath-
erine Lustgarten. In his petition

the tie. of wedlock until December
20. 1919. when they decided that
they would sever the bonds of matri
mony and go their way separately.
The petition bases as its cause of ac
tion the fact that the defendant has
at sundry times stated that she did
not love the plaintiff and had mar
ried him against her will under un
due influence and also the petition
claims that the defendant taunted
the plaintiff with the fact that he
was a jew winie sue was a genine
and that it was wrong for people of
those different religious beliefs and
races to wed. The parties to the suit
reside at Klniwood and the plaintiff
