12 HIE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1912. OND ISSUE UP TO PEOPLE toVote $10O,COO Bonds for New Fire ' Houses and Police Station. ASKS TOICIPAI WOSKEOUSE frart of Money to Be tTsed, if Ay Is JUeft, to Eree Workfcos, i -Walck Ryder Say W1U Give Profit. . The first step toward carrying out the plans of Commissioners Ryder and With oell head of the police and fire depart ments, was taken by the council yester day mornlnf, when an ordinance author Wng, the submission of a (VXm bond Issue to a vote of the people was unani mously passed. tf this bond proposition carries at the November election Commissioner Wlthnell will be enabled to build two new fine engine houses and make improvements In other houses which he says Is very aecessary. -: ' ' With portion of the money Police Commissioner Ryder intends, if possible, to erect a new central police station and arrange for a municipal workhouse where prisoners could be profitably employed nd turned loose at the expiration of their lentences with money in their pockets. Mr. Ryder has investigated municipal workhouses in several cities and found them self-supporting. He believes an Institution he-re could be made to yield profit Segregate Yoaic Offenders. .'His plan Is to segregate the younger sffenders from the old criminals, give all irc-rk at which they could earn a small sum above the expense of their keep and let them out of jail with enough money and clothes to save them from the pos ilblllty of arrest for vagrancy. Mr. Wlthnell says the bond Issue Is necessary because the city is now paying rent for one fire house alone that would more than pay the interest on the bonds. This Is the building at Eighteenth and Harney streets, which is .costing the municipality a large sum annually al though It Is In poor repair. Houses la Bad Repair ; - Many firs houses, according to the-com-missioner of fire protection and water supply, oould stand several thousand nollari worth of repairs. With the money from the sale of these bonds the effi ciency of the fire department would per haps also be increased by the appoint ment of more firemen and the purchase tf additional fire-fighting apparatus. Ordinance Passed i Prohibiting Signs Over the Sidewalks . An ordinance prohibiting erection of very large electric- and other signs over the sidewalks was passed by the city council at an adjourned session yesterday morning. This measure t makes It an of fense punishable by heavy fine' to erect unstable or unsightly signs on any build inf. Police Commissioner Ryder had the or dinance drafted. It is similar to the ordi nance row in effect, but City Attorney Rine said there was some doubt as to whether the ordinance now in effect was legally passed. a ,. Thls new ordinance also regulates the display of merchandise In cases othe sidewalk, making it a misdemeanor to obstruct business streets In such manner. PUBLIC DRINKING CUP :?
