NEBRASKA BRIDGE
BILLS ARE SIGNED
Washington President Hoover
Tuesday signed a number of bills
authorizing the construction of
bridges of extending the time for
their completion. They included:
I'xtension of time for bridging the
Missouri river at Decatur, Neb.: ex
tending time for bridging the Mis
souri near Niobrara.
Slogans do not a city make but
when backed up with the right kind
of -o-operation they take on new
meaning. For instanee. there's Louis
ville, with its well known. "We're
Iluihling a City at Louisville."
Now some writer has told us that
"It takes a lot of livin' to make a
home." and we may draw from this
the deduction that it takes a lot of
livin' and a lot of boosting and a
lot of co-operation to make a city.
Louisville has "IT" when it comes
to these qualities. This week a not
nii instance of the interest of their
greatest industry, the Ash Grove com
pany in the welfare of their men, was
given at the satety meeting, wnen
they were advised it was just as
Hindi a matter of safety to provide
the family v ith a home building up
the rommunity establishing savings
accounts buying building and loan
stock obliterating financial worry
t iMinrd asrainst personal injury.
This splendid and unusual lesson in
liMiio finances and home ownership
was contained in the address of C. A.
Allison, the construction foreman at
the plant, who said, among other
t h i n gs :
Another Kind of Safety
"I want to talk to you for a
little while from an entirely dif
ferent angle than is customary
at these meetings Safety of Our
Homes the management of our
finances being careful with our
buying. Be sure that you buy
K0 cents worth with every dol
lar. Never buy what you don't
need, for you will be sure to
need what you can't buy. You
may he able to earn today, but
not tomorrow.
"The other day I saw a man
buy worth of tobacco in a
local store. He wore shoes with
his toes sticking out. His little
boy was with him and was more
poorly clad. That wasn't safety.
I believe every man should study
saving.
"I'KOViniNG HIS FAMILY
WITH A HOME BUILDING
IT A COMMUNITY Is the best
safety work on earth. I do not
think any man can work as well
if he has financial worries at
home. We will always have
more or less trouble, but by a
proper system of gauging our ex
penditures we can eliminate the
greater part of this. . . .
"And again I want to ask, are
you doing for yourself the best
you can. against old age? Have
you a savings account? Put
away $.1 a month for 130 months
in some good building and loan
company and you will have saved
$1,000. There are a lot of us
here who could have done that.
Did you do it?
"Isn't that safety? I want to
tell you to dr that takes spunk,
grit, character but, boys. It's
safety. If you only do the things
you like to do you will not do
much. You have to do things
in this world not that you feel
like it. but because you know it
is right. '
"If every ntan here had a
$1.0 building and loan policy
coming due today, wouldn't this
he a happy meeting? You must
study the problems of life. They
are important to you. Be pre
pared for the emergencies.
"A great many will say. 'I only
live once. You may change later
on and think you have time, but
you have not.
"I have been on a great many
jobs, lasting from three months
to one year. I find that most of
the boys make no attempt to
make a real saving of their hard
earned money. They must deny
themselves later on of things
they should have. We all know
that isn't safety. I am trying to
show you that people are injur
ed by other things than gears,
wheels, conveyors, etc. Injuries
in industrial plants are nothing
when compared to the neglect of
saving for the storm days here
after of establishing a home of
your own, where your declining
days may be spent in ease and
- without fear of eviction."
What are We Doing?
How about us? Are we building a
city at Plattsmouth? Is there suffi
cient interest among our working
people in home ownership? Are peo
ple, generally, buying things they
don't need on credit and neglect
ing the more Important things in
life establishment of a competence
for old age?
If the importance of home owner
ship could be instilled in the minds
of every resident of Plattsmouth, the
real estate transfer record would
double and treble overnight and In
ten days property values would have
increased thousands and thousands
of dollars.
The Chamber of Commerce urges
home ownership as the greatest need
in Plattsmouth now. The season of
year is at hand when everyone down
deep in his heart would like to have
a small patch of ground, a house
however humble that he might call
his own. And when that urge is
gratified by the majority of our peo
ple, Plattsmouth will be In line for
the greatest wave of prosperity the
old town has known in years.
