THE BEE; "OMAHA, TUESDAY, JULY 29, 1919. HOTEL COMPANY ANSWERS SUIT FILED BY CITY -fc Defends Right to Dispose of 1 Garbage From Restaurant as Permitted by New State Law. x'" An answer to the suit brought by " the city to force downtown hotels !' and restaurants to turn garbage over to city collectors was filed in dis trict court yesterday by Stanley Rosewater, attorney for the Kitchen Brothers Hotel company. That the I'axton hotel is in a po sition to utilize unconsumed food and derive a profit from its dispo sition without allowing it to become a nuisance is the chief argument con tained in the answer. The hog yard in North Omaha, which has caused residents to protest to the city council, is cited as proof that the city did not come into court with "clean hands" in the answer, and that Henry Pol lack, who has contracted with the city to dispose of all garbage has not kept his contract. The constitutionality of House Roll No. 445, passed by the last leg islature, permitting businesses that accumulate garbage as a by-f roduct to dispose of as they see fit was de fended by W. M. Giller, nd C. VV. Speers. counselors for other hotel and restaurant Interests. Arguments were completed on both sides yesterday afternoon, What Will the City Do With A Pontoon Bridge, Anyway? The army motor transport train which will arrive in Omaha today will present the city of Omaha with their equipment for construct ing pontoon bridges, it was an nounced yesterday by an officer traveling in advance of the convoy.

Nebraska Power Co "Your Electric Service Company' Phones: Tyler 3100 South 3 Threats by Elmer Thomas and other members of the "Committee of 500" to circulate recall petitions against City Commissioner Zimman if the recall petitions against Mayor Smith and Commissioners Ringer, Towl and Ure are filed were criti cised yesterday by City Commission er Ure, former treasurer of the "Committee of 500." "Zimman has made good in his department," said Mr. Ure. "The mere fact that recall petitions have been circulated against four of us is no reason for trying to recall Zim man. bucn action would De neither Christian nor politic." Commissioner Ringer and Mayor Smith declined to comment on the threatened recall of Commissioner Zimman. "I shall support Zimman for re election if petitions are filed for his recall," said Mr. Ure. "He is a good official. I do not believe in trying to recall him merely be cause some people are trying to re call four of the other commission ers. People who try to do that are poorly advised. They have the wrong idea of city government." Mr. Ure stands higfh in the coun cils of the "Committee of 500" and the people behind this committee. While Ringer was sponsored, per haps, more than any of the other commissioners by the church people, Ure was a close second in their fa vor at the election of 1918. Smith and Towl also stood high in the re gard of the church element. Zimman was also one of the "al lied candidates" and made the race on the same platform with these four. Ure is apparently the only one who is able to forget his own political troubles long enough . to help out the only "Allied" candidate not included on the present recall petitions. The Bee's Fund for Free Milk and Ice , Girl Kun Down by Auto Effie Miller, 16 years old, 1511 North Twenty-third street, was struck by an automobile at Thir teenth and Farnam streets shortly after noon yesterday. The machine was driven by P. F. Clarkson, a salesman, living at the Sanford ho tel. She suffered a wrenched back and body bruises. A lemonade and popcorn stand, operated on the lawn at 3904 South Twenty-fifth street for a day, netted $2.70 to buy milk and ice for poor babies. Five girls "got it up." A Japa nese umbrella provided shade by day and Japanese lanterns gave light by night. Everybody had a good time and the $2.70 will do a lot of good for hungry babies,. The girls who earned this sum are Grace Root, Helen Root, Lois Et ter, Pauline Oswald and Bess Stur rock. Other children are using their time profitably anddoing good to the helples.by plays and little busi ness ventures. YOUR MONEY does 100 PER CENT GOOD when contributed to The Bee's fund.
