    THE BEE: OMAHA, MONDAY, JUNE 25, 1!U7.
COHHELL EXPLAINS
GARBAGEQUESTION
Health Commissioner Tells Sit
uation to Bee Readers; Will
Appear Before Council
Monday.
During the Maloney hearing beiore
the city council many references were
made to garbage and the recent tem
porary arrangement made by Health
Commissioner Council. The doctor
will appear before the city council
committee of the whole this morning
to explain the situation. He has ex
plained the matter for Bee readers in
. the following manner:
"i am glad to give an interview per
taining to the garbage Question, inas
much as there has been some little
controversy over it in the Maloney
trial during the past week. In a
cities there are two questions involved
pertaining to garbage tirst, the gath
ering, and second, the disposal.
. "Fertainim, to the first, the gather
ing and hauling of garbage, it is not
a debatable question any longer, as
k all cities and sanitary experts are
agreed that there is but one system
for hauling garbage, and that is by
the city, to do it free of expense to
the individual citizen. Whether they
do this with city owned teams or hire
teams and drivers, the city must con
trol the hauling and be responsible
to the citizens to see there is no ac
cumulation of garbage and unsanitary
conditions maintained.
Cost of Hauling.
"During the past few years the city
has been gathering garbage it has
taken from sixteen to twenty-eight
teams per day to collect it at a cost
of $4.25 per team a day. During 1916
the total cost for the hauling of gar
bage was $34,500. This, amount was
not sufficient, as the last six oreight
: weeks of the year the garbage in the
residence portions of the city was not
collected as it should have been, ow
ing to lack of funds, as the city ap
oropriation of $35,000 was not suffi
cient. In order to cut down the large
expense to the city for the removal of
garbage I have given a great deal of
thought and study and finally con
eluded the best and only feasible way
was to divide the city into districts
and pay the owners of teams with
garbage instead of $4.25 in cash a day.
This arrangement could not be made
before the present time, for the rea
son some thirty or forty people were
. haulms from restaurants. Hotels
boarding houses, etc., sporadically
and claimed the city did not have the
exclusive riKht to remove the garbage,
Suit was instituted, taken through the
supreme court and ewry court held
the city had the right, and that it was
just and reasonable for the city to
gather all the garbage.
Has No Contract.
"As the citv has been districted I
have been able to secure up to date
nine teams to remove garbage in cer
tain districts and am in Hopes
can secure at least three more to take
districts without paying any cash, but
giving them the garbage which they
gather for their pay. ivo contracts
have been given, the city only hiring
the teams without pay to do the work
as long as it is done thoroughly, it
would not be good policy to make a
contract with anyone to haul garbage
as it would then get out ot the con
trol of the citv.
"The arrangements we have been
able to make to date in dirterent dis
tiicts will save the city more than
S12.000. Drovided haulers secure
enough garbage to justify them con
tinuing to haul the whole year. If
we can get the other three districts
hauled the same way, the city would
save $4,000 more, a total of from
. $15,000 to $16,000. May 1, 1916, the
city advertised for bids for the dis
posal of all the garbage collected by
the city, to be delivered at points des
ignated in the bids. The owners of the
hog ranch in East Omaha bid $1,000
and the contract was awarded to them.
If $12,000 to $16,000 is saved in haul
ing the garbage this year, it is not
hard to see as a business proposition
its advantage over again advertising
for bids for the. disposal of city
hauled garbage.
Is Debatable Question.
"As to the second proportion, dis
posal of garbage in cities is a debata
ble question and it is impossible to
fix any plan for its disposal that will
apply, to any and all cities, as there
are to many conditions to be takvn
into consideration, such as population
location, climate, etc.
"'The question of the necessity of
the conservation of the country's re
sources is becoming more apparent all
the time and that the waste and de
struction of things in this country
must stop. This being the case, any
one can see that the garbage, contain
ing so much of value, should not be
destroyed by dumping into the river
Oven If the government would allow
the city to do so), put in a hole and
cover up with dirt or to burn it, pro
vided the hauling and disposal did not
cost more than the revenue derived
from utilizing its value.
"Theoretical' a crematory or re
duction plant is an ideal way of dis
posing of garbage, both from a sani
tary and financial standpoint. Prac
tically, it all right from a sanitary
standpoint, but the installation and
maintenance of a crematory or reduc
tion plant in a city the size of Oma
ha, with no more garbage than we
have here, would be a very expensive
proposition for the city.
Best Practical Method.
"The most plausible and practical
method of disposing of garbage in
Omaha is feeding it to hogs. Especial
ly is tiiis true at the present time,
when the price of hogs is so high. It
would be a crime to destroy Omaha's
garbage when several thousand hogs
can be raised on it a year. Until the

Though Omaha hotel men gave
generously to the Red Cross fund
campaign, they do not believe they
have given enough, to the Omaha
Hotel Men's association announce!
that it proposes to raise enough
money to purchase an Omaha Red
'Cross ambulance and provide suffi
cient funds for its upkeep. This will
require about su.uuu and their drive
to get it is already started. To get it,
the hotel men have contracted for the
famous official British war pictures
of the battle of the Ancre, which will
be shown at the Brandeis theater the
week commencing July lb.
Expenses of promoting and pre
senting the pictures will be borne by
the hotel men and every penny taken
in at the box office will go to the
Omaha chapter of the Red Cross.
The pictures, filmed by Tathe while
the battle at Ancre raged, were paid
for by W. K. Vandcrbilt and mil
lionaire associates, and the authen
ticity is touched for by the allied
forces. Trencli, fighting, bombing,
aeroplane duels, and, last but not
least, the deadly juggernaut of mod
ern warfare, "the tank," are shown in
the five reels offered. It is said to be
the first war movie of its kind ever
seen in America, and shows details of
war that can be disclosed in no other
way.
May 12 the pictures were shown in
Carnegie hall, New York. The boxes
were auctioned off to the highest bid
ders, the highest price paid being
$1,000. The entire house was sold out
at prices of above $1. The gross re
ceipts were over $50,000 for one night.
Later they were shown at the strand
theater, New York, and the average
attendance was 12,000 daily, with
thousands turned away at each per
formance. Mr. Edet, manager of the
city establishes a workhouse, where
the garbage can be hauled and fed to
hogs by the city and thus receive the
lull benefit, to district it out to others
for hog feeding and get it hauled from
central districts free of expense to
the city seems to me to be a feasible
and businesslike method. With a city
workhouse I feel sure enough could
be made off feeding garbage to nearly,
if not quite, pay for the removal of it
trom all over the city.
"This is another great reason why
Omaha should secure a workhouse as
soon as possible.

Committee Asks for
Quiet Independence Day
Washington. June 24. A plea that
Independence day be observed this
year with a solemnity reflecting the
sober determination "of a democracy
at war for its ideals and its existence '
was made in a statement issued to
night by the public information com
mittee.
"Noise and useless illumination and
unthinking celebrations have no
proper place in times such as these,"
says the statement. "Let there be a
return to those ceremonies and ad
dresses which prevailed in other days.
Every organization should co-operate
to make it such a celebration as will
carry to every home and every ele
ment among our people the gravity
of issues that strike to the very root
of the nation born 141 years ago and
dedicated to freedom."

of home needs and it will be shipped
to England as soon as the transport
problem is solved.
theater, said the pictures proved to be
the greatest film attraction New York
bas ever had.
In Omaha popular prices wilt pre
vail, the hotel men counting upon the
desire of the public for war front in
formation and the duration ot the
exhibition to raise the amount of
money required.
The hotel men, under the direction
of President John Letton of the Hotel
Fontenelle, have been considering the
project for the last six weeks, and
signed the contracts for the picture
yesterday.

Miller, Joe Keenan, John Kennedy,
Harry Brown, Harley Conant, P. W.
Mikescll, Ralph Kitchen, I. A. Medlar
and T. R. Bryant.
Every day during the run of the

attracting attention. Monday, July
16, will be "Club day" and members
of every club in Omaha will be urged
to attend on this day. Tuesday will

"tank" to Omaha for demonstration
purposes and for use in the parades.
The Red Cross will have charge
of all of the money handled in the
box office.
RED CROSS MEEDS
TWESTYMILUONS
Every Effort Will Be Made in
Next Two Days to Reach
Objective Sum of
Drive.
Washington, June 24. Twenty mil
lion dollars must be collected by
Monday night by the Red Cross
volunteer campaigners in American
cities and towns to make the week's
canvass for a $100,000,000 fund an en
tire success. Despite the spectacular
spurts of a number of cities, total new
pledges reported to national head
quarters today, were only $3,000,000,
making the aggregate collections for
six days about $80,000,000.
Campaign managers directed local
workers to make strenuous efforts in
the next two days to ferret out indi
viduals or corporation! who have not
contributed and to impress upon them
the. importance in America's war
scheme of the success of the Red
Cross fund.
The need of every humanity dollar
that can be collected was emphasized
today by Lord Northdiffe, British war
commissioner, now in tBe United
States, in a letter to Henry B. r. Mc
Farland. chairman of the District of
Columbia Ked Cross hnante committee.
Work Will Continue.
Word reached here tonight that
committees in a number of cities will
refuse to quit work Monday night
when the camapign formally closes.
This prolongation of the canvass will
be sought in two Classes of com
munitiesthose like Cleveland, on fire
with enthusiasm and piling up over
subscriptions, and cities where for va
rious local reasons the campaign did
not start until late this week. Atlanta,
suffering from the recent disastrous
fire, is one of the cities of the latter
class.
Tomorrow is Red Cross day
thousands of Sunday schools and
churches. Campaign directors expect
the harvest trom rural districts, where
intense solicitation has not been done
this week, to be large in church re
ports.
In a statement tonight on the desig
nation of Monday as "Pershing day"
Secretary baker said:
"It is eminently fitting that the
final dav of the Red Cross week a
week devoted to collecting $100,000,-
000 for the purposes of humanity
should be called fershing day. 1 am
sure that the leader first to carry the
banner of our citizen soldiery to the
western front will appreciate the
honor and that his name, on the other
hand, will act as an inspiration which
will urge patriotic Americans to more
than complete the sum required by
the Red Cross before the close of
Pershing day."
State totals collected and reported
to date as announced tonight by the
Kcd Cross Headquarters include:

Corn Crop of Kansas
Averages 78.4 Per Cent
Topeka, Kan., Tune 24. The aver
age condition of the Kansas corn
crop is 78.4 per cent, according to a
report issued today from the office
of J. C. Mohler, secretary of the State
Board of Agriculture. The condition
of other crops is given as follows:
Corn is under cultivation on 8,200,
000 acres, which is a record area.
About 2,800,000 acres of abandoned
wheat land were planted to corn.
The potato acreage is unusually
large, 16,500 acres being under culti
vation. The condition is 88.36 per
cent.
Are You One of Them?
There are a great many people who
would be very much benefited by tak
ing Chamberlain's Tablets for a weak
or disordered stomach. Are you one
of them? Mrs. M. R. Searl, Baldwins
ville, N. Y., relates her experience in
the use of these tablets: "I had a
bad spell with my stomach about six
months ago .nd was troubled for two
or three weeks with gas and severe
pains in the pit of my stomach. Our
druggist advised me to take Cham
berlain's Tablets. I took a bottle home
and the first dose relieved me wonder
fully, and I kept on taking them un
til I was cured." These tablets do
not relieve pain, but after the pain has
been relieved may prevent its recur-'
ence. Advertisement

new- tod or HJ..0 on litavy tmevea and
new top of 118.1b on yearling! being reg
istered. On the other hand, tha medium
and common cattle of all weights have
shown declining tendency on account of
increased competition from weatern and
southern great cattle. Outeide of the
strictly good to choice beevea there haa
been decline In price ranging from 36c
(0c, and the market la cloning dull at
the decline. The break In valuee on these
medium and half fat cattle la entirely sea
