BIG RUBBER PLAST

Crown Tire and Rubber Com
pany, Capitalized at $250,- j
000, Has Vast Program.
WILL U1 1A uujuuuiu-
Six big bufldings will constitute
eventually the complete plant of the
Crown Tire and Rubber company, to
manufacture the Crown Cord, tires for
automobiles and motorcycles,-and
other lines of rubber goods.
The company Thursday filed ar
ticles of incorporation with an initial
capital stock of $250,000 The incor
porators are Henry A. Reichenbacn
of Omaha, Henry C. Meier of Coun
cil Bluffs and Jesse P. Howe of Des
Moines.': . '. ' " .
The company has recently acquired
five acres of ground for the plant
just south of the south limit of the
Seymour Lake Country club, and
across the main paved road south ot
the Cudahy ice house at the lake s
edge. ' " . ' .
Seek Beat Ideas.
Architect A. V. Johnson of Omaha
is to prepare the plans. He is soon
going east to look over plants of the
various big tire companies there-and
gather ideas as to some of the
best points in the construction oi such
nlants.
In the meantime, tne company w
to establish temporary quarter m
another locality, farther southwest in
Ralston, and is to begin the manu
facture of the" tires, so that in sixty
days from now they expect to be pro
ducing tires. ' ' , - '
The first unit'of the main plant II
to be 80 by ISO alid four stories high.
Within five years the company ex
pects to have the full six units con
structed and to be turning out vast
quantities of tires.
Market Assured. -
The Crown Cord tire is anew inven
tion,-protected by patent right. The
principal feature is that it is rein
forced with three plies of stout cords,
overlapping and continuous, no cord
being entirely cut in the lapping of
the three- plies. -Mr Reichenbach
says he has already orders that will
oractically insure a -market for the
rntire first "Year's outDUt.
V- "When the first unit of the ' fac
tory is compJeteS," said Mr. Reichen
bach, "w! will employ about 125 men
and will be producing .some 200 tires
per day. ' Last year $6,000,000 went
out of Nebraska for tires, and $9,000,
000 went out of Iowa. We might

sumption of a vast number of Vires
annually, and we hope to supply some
of this great demand, We hope to
complete the first unit and begin oper
ations there about August, 1916."

If Nebraska goes "dry.", at the No
vember election, the deficit in school
revenue which would be .caused by
the loss of the saloan license money,
would be made up by increased taxa
tion, declares I. W. Carpenter,, mem
ber of the school board. The increase
in taxation will not be permanent,
however, he says, because matters
would be equalized through the re
duction of expenses and the taxpayer
will, in his opinion, ultimately be bet
ter off! . " ,
C. V. Warfield, anothar member of
the Board of Education, said: "The
only solution I can see is to raise the
tax levy to cover the amount which
would otherwise be provided by the
saloon license money. The school
budget is fixed, or practically fixed,
and if the Saloon licenses are cut off
there appears to be only one solu
tion, and that is an increase of
taxes." : . '

Greer Gains Freedom in -A
Writ of. Habeas Corpus
Following the application of Sam
Greer, who was sentenced in ipolice
court to thirty days in the county
jail on a charge of carrying concealed
weapons, on October 21, Judge Sears
issued an order for writ of habeas
corpus served on Sheriff ITcShapeH
and the prisoner gained nu nucny.
Greer's contention- was that the
complaint in question did not onti
tute an offense under the ordinances
of the city of Cjnaha
Judge Sears in granting the writ
ruled that carryingconcealed weap
ons js a felony under Jhf state law,
but .that a magistrate's jurisdiction
does not give him the power to do
more than to bind,a prisoner over on
such a charge. , The police judge;
therefore, did not have the jurisdic
tion to sentence Greer for an offense
not included in the city ordinances.
