INTENSIVE BUILDING
PROGRAM IS NEEDED
From Saturday's Dally.
vOne of the greatest needs in
Plattsmouth this year to boom pros
perity is an Intensive building pro
gram. During the war and its at
tendant high prices the building
work slowed up until it was almost
at a standstill. Now, with lower
prices of material and labor as well,
it behooves the prospective builder to
proceed. Further delay is useless.
Morover, it will likely prove costly
in decreased profits.
For years there has been a grow
ing demand for new homes. The Bur
lington recently sought thru the
Chamber of Commerce to induce the
erection of a score or more modern
rental houses to accommodate the in
creased number of mechanics they
would bring here to work In the
shops.
Not only in homes, but in public
improvements as well is there room
for stimulated action. Of the work
already in sight in this line, most im
portant is the proposed remodeling of
the Back of Cass County building at
the corner of Fifth and Main streets,
which upon its completion' will be
occupied by the Plattsmouth State
Bank. ,
Several paving and curbing pro
jects are also viewed 'with favor as
a part of the summer's constructive
work.
Returning prosperity is on the
way. Let us be ready to greet it
when it arrives.
