0 THE BEE: OMAHA, THU6DAY, FEBRUARY 13. 1013. TO CONTROL PRIVATE PLANTS Kcnl Estate Exchange does on Rec ord on Water Matters. E. A. BENSON IS FOR SECRECY Limit In Fixed on Ilnrrrll'i Snlarr Ilonrrt Tnrnn Down Report f Its Committee nnd Expert. That the Omaha. Water board should have control of private water planU nnd artesian wells was decided by the Ileal Estate exchange yesterday by a vote of sixteen to eleven. After more than an hour of discussion tho exchange thus turned down the opinion of Its committee, appointed to investigate R. Beecher Howell's bill now pending In the legis lature, and the opinion of nn attorney to whom the exchange paid $25 for In vestigating and giving advice on the mat ter Also the exchange voted In favor of the section In Howell's bill which stipu lates that the manager of the Water board shall have technical knowledge and experience In water works construc tion. In opposing this several members declared they could think of no such per son In that way qualified for the position exoept Howell. Nearly half those pre sent at tho exchange meeting opposed such qualifications for manager of the board, but after considerable argument the question was put to a vote and the action was allowed to stand so far as the exchange is concerned. The report of the committee on tho nmount of tho manager's pay was adopted by tho exchange. Tho section of Howell's bill has It fixed so the man nser Mr. Howell, may receive whatever amount the board may be Induced to jmy The oommlttee believe this com pensation should be fixed In the bill not to excoed $5,000 a year, and the recom mendation of the committee to that ef fect was adopted by the exchange. An amendment was put to Howell's section of the bill which merely would Allow no member of the board to have an Interest In any contracts entered Into, and the exchange voted to Inoluda atai that no employe of the board should b Interested in any contracts. It waa fur ther decided by the exchange that th board should pay Ha treasurer what ever It deemed suitable. I V. D. Wead, member of the Water board, was present at trie meeting and ought strongly against most of the recommendations In the committee's re port. At the beginning of the meeting B. A, Benson waa not sure that the proceedings nhould be allowed to get Into the news paper. Ho mado a motion that the ex change go Into executive session. The question was argued a short time and then a substitute motion by John W. Jlobblns was adopted, leaving; the meeting tin open one. . The exchange went on record opposing' the bill for a yearly assessment It was announced at the meeting that the annual banquet of tho exchange will be given the evening of February 27. A committee now is making arrangements for the dinner and entertainment.
