HOWARD HOLDS UP THE PAY
Auditor Refuses to Isiue Warrants
on Brian's Vouchers.
NEW MOVE IN INSURANCE FIGHT
Kmploj-ea of Department Under I,. O.
nrlan Will Have to Walt for
Tay Until Conrta
.More.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Neb.. Aug. 20.-(8pcclal.)-Audltor
W. I). Howard will not Issue
warrants on vouchers signed by tho new
Insurance commissioner K . Brian, and
consequently the job holders Jn the de
partment will have to work without pay
and In addition pay their own expenses.
Thts might not be so bad wero It not
that the supreme court may decide that
the new Insurance law Is unconstitutional
and then all the hard work and tho
money paid out for expenses will be for
naught.
The same condition which exists re
garding the actuary and the examiners
covers the salary of the Insurance com
missioner, L. G. Brian and that of the
two young ladles working under him,
Miss Lillian Peters and lss Nettle arks.
However, in the case of the young ladles
who held positions under r. Howard
when ho had charge of the Insurance de
partment, r. Howard has offered to Issue
their vouchers up to the time the de
partment was under his control, July 24,
or to August L If they desire, which waa
the time they were notified that their
appointments under the auditor's depart
ment expired.
Vouchers were mode out for both Mlsi
Peters and Miss Marks with tho icquost
by Mr. Howard that they sign them so
that warrants could be drawn for the
pay they were entitled to. Miss Marks
recently signed her voucher and received
her warrant, but MIbs Peters has so far
refused to sign any voucher which would
contain the name of Auditor Howard In
ordor to get the money coming to her
earned while she waa working for Mr.
Howard In tho auditor's department.
Auditor Howard will refuse to Issue
warrants to employes of the Insurance
department on vouchers signed by Mr
Brian as insurance commissioner for the
reason of the fact that by so doing he
will be recognising tho rights of the new
Insurance board when he haa filed In
court an application for a roh6arlng of
the case wherein he was deprived of the
department, on the grounds that the law
as passed by the last legislature Is un
constitutional and that the bill passed by
the two houses Is not the name bill that
was signed by the governor.
Council Bluffs
Business Men
Raise a Protest
On Walk Display
A distinct note of protest was heard
yesterday 'ariiong business men concern
ing the ad t ion of the city council instruct
ing City Solicitor StUart to draft a new
ordinance ' prohibiting all displays of
merchandise on the sidewalks for sale
purposes. The action of the council was
upon recommendation of the Retail Mer
chants' association, and the Initiative Is
thus altogether with the merchants
themselves. It was asserted yesterday,
however, that there was only a bare
quorum of the Merchants' association at
tha meeting when the resolution calling
for- the new ordinance was passed, and
that the' action did not thus represent
thesentlment of' a majority of the mer
chants who are members of the associa
tion. It" was stated 'yes'terday that the
council 'would be asked tti defer action
until the merchants are given an oppor
tunity to express themselves. If the
majority of them want such an ordinance
It Is said the minority will gracefully
acquiesce.
That there has been complaint and ex
cellent grounds for It concerning the ob
structions of the sidewalks by second
hand dealers Is admitted. These men
have piled up masses of nondescript and
unslffhtly.looklng stuff on the sidewalks
to a degVeo that thoy have really ob
structed the walks. On the other hand,
many merchants have wares that cannot
be satisfactorily displayed Inside the
stores. This particularly refers to hard
ware stores, where such things as lawn
mowers fall to attract attention unless
placed on the walk In front of the stores.
"Such displays are In the Interest of
cheaper cost of living," said a retailer
yesterday. "There should never be any
provisions displayed on the streets, but
there are other articles of merchandise
where an attractive sidewalk display re.
duces the cost of doing business, and this
Is one of the chief means by which re
duced prices to the consumer may be
brought about. I am certain It Is In tho
Interest of the poor man to display on
the streets real bargains he Is In need of,
and I believe the poorer classes were dis
tinctly harmed when some of the shoe
dealers were forced to discontinue dts
playing bargains on the streets.
"I know of one Instance where fifty
cases of shoes were bought of an Omaha
wholesaler at less than $1 a pair and sold
within a few days when they wero dis
played on the street with bargain prices
marked on them. Another lot of oven
better bargains was purchased soon after
by the same firm, when the sidewalk
displays were prohibited, and the stock
was not sold for months. This display
attracted attention nnd the prices made
the sales. Tills waa a positive benefit to
the poor man and did not In any degree
harm the regular trade. We want to at
tract trade, and that such displays do Is
evidenced by the fact that half of that
shoe stock was sold to out-of-town peo
ple." WESTERN IOWA FIELD YIELDS
