$822,000 RIOT nnunn mini in UUHUO IHVALIU, RULESLAW FIRM Decision Means That Chicago Firm Withdraws Bid, Leav ing Officials Here Without ,. money Tor repairs. v . ..-.' The -Douglas "county court house repair bonds of $822,000 issued un der authority of. atv act passed by a special session of the state legisla ture, are invalid, according to an opinion received yesterday by the board 6l county commissioners from A. J. Oakley of the law firm of Wood & Oakley, Chicago, attorneys for the Harris Trust and Savings Co. of Chicago. ' The message came through the Peters Trust Co. of Omaha which bought the issue of bonds in con junction with the Harris Trust & Savings Co. It astounded the county commis sioners. It takes away the money which-is so urgently needed for re pairing the court house and restor ing the records burned by-the mob the night'of September 28. Some Already, Expended. ; A considerable portion of the money has already been expended in paying the workers who are bflsv day and night restoring the records. Ilie 'lecisic'ii 'simply means that the Chicago company withdraws its bid and refuses to accept the bonds. The Peters Trust Co. will do the same unlgss a reversal of the de cision is secured. This leaves the county without any. money with which to go on with the restoration"1 of the court house and the records: Mr. Oakley bases his opinion on the Nebraska constitutional .clause which states that no indebtedness "in excess of $1.50 per. $100 of valua tion". shaM be incurred ,bv Douglas county without a vote Kf the xpeo ple." has made an error, 'I believe," said County Clerk Frank Dewey.' "He has figured Douglas county s valua tion at the one-fifth return of actual value. This is $59,849,103, whereas the-actual value of all Douglas county property is just five times that, namely $299,245,515. Says "Foolish Business." "Last year w levied about $2,000, 000 for regular county expenses. Adding this $822,000 allowed by the legislature, makes about $2,822,000 levied last year without vote of the people. This, of course,', "is more than $1.50 per $100 of the one-fifth valuation, "but it is far from being $1.50 per $100 of actual valuation. This business of dividing actual val uation by five before making the as sessment is a foolish business and has gotten us into trouble before." MR. OR MRS.

County Attorney Shotwell prepar ed an opinion declaring the validity of the bonds. In this opinion he had Jhe endorsement of other lead ing attorneys of Omaha. John P. Breen made a very careful study of the situation and gave an opjnion that the bonds were quite valid. Shotwell to Chicago. County Attorney Shotwell will go to Chicago this week, to present the question of the legality of the bonds as' viewed by himself and other Omaha attorneys. Mr. Breen arid perhaps some, other local attorneys will go with him. "It think Mr. .Oakley has made a very natural error in his decision on these bonds," said Mr. Shotwell. "When we have- presented our view I think we may well look for an other decision on the question." The decision of the Chicago bond attorneys was delivered to the coun ty-commissioners by C. J. Claassen, secretary of the Peters Trust com pany, upon its receipt yesterday. The decision acted automatically to Cancel the purchase of the bonds. Unless their legality is made clear they cannot be sold to other bond concerns. C. OF C RECORDS . 2,000 MISSED BY CENSUS TAKERS Commercial Body Expects Pop- ' ulation to Go Over the 200,000 Mark. With hundreds of names of peo ple, missed by census enumerators pouring in, officials of the Chamber of Commerce and John H. Hopkins, director of . the federal-census for this district, yesterday predicted that Omaha would' go over thes 200,000 mark in population when the final count is tabulated. "We know positively ' that Oma ha's population is more than 200, 000," declared Arthur Thomas of the chamber. "It is simply a matter of getting them counted." , Mr. Hopkins was more cautious, but declared that the "outlook for reaching the 200.000 mark was more favorable today." , "Although some of" the names turned in had already been recorded, we find that a majority had not," he said. "Large industrial concerns of the city are now turning in many names of people missed by the enumerators, and the roll call in the schools should result in many addi tional names." Girls,making a telephone canvass for the chamber in half a day's work Saturday. recorded 431 namesN missed by the enumerators. With names of people missed which were recorded Friday, and names report ed by employers, the total had reachedN nearly 2,000 yesterday. At least 3,000 more people who have not been recorded are expected to be located in the next few days, thus increasing the original count by 5,000. 1 ..... At. the residence of Mrs. Frances Follansbee, 604 South Twenty eighth street, 30 people were missed by enumerators. ' Eleven people were missed at the home of Mrs. Ann Ferryman, 716 South Twenty- eighth street I. David Larson, commissioner of the Chamber of Commerce, and his family of six, were not recorded by enumerators. Funeral Services For Pioneer Omahan Will Be Held Today Funeral services for Petor E.

CITY, ELECTRIC PLANT PROPOSED TO REDUCE RATE Commissioner Ure Makes Counter to Request of Ne braska Power Co. for v Higher Prices.; v. An application by the Nebraska Power Co., for authority to increase light and power rates, in the faceof City Commissioner UreV. pending ordinance for a reduction of these rate's, caused sofrlted discussion dur ing the citv council meeting yester day. " . The company's application was or dered placed on file, and Mr. lire's ordinance was laid over for disT cussion next Monday. Mr. Ure an nounced himself in favor of submit ting to the voters at the next elec tion a $2,000,000 bond-proposition for the. erection of a municipal com peting electric light plant. Whole Story Not Told. Mayor Smith and Mr. Ure asserted that financial statements submitted by the electric light company were only in the abstract and did not tell the real story. "lliere is nothing definite in these statements," Mr. Ure said. "We need actual information of the company's affairs since 1915, when- a commit tee of the Chamber of Commerce fixed a valuation of $4,500,000 on this plant. I will recommend that we in troduce an- ordinance for the sub mission of a $2,000,000 bond issue to the voters." -The statements sent to us by the company today show their balances for 1917, 1918 and 1919 in red ink. I know that the company was not in 'red ink' during those years," Mayor Smith stated. Willing to Show Books. J.' A. C. Kennedy, speaking for the Nebraska Power company, re plied: . "We are asking for an increase .of rates because we are not receiving a fair return upon a fair valution. We are willing that this council shall appoint a committee to. investigate our books and determine in that way just what we are entitled to. The company needs $3,000,000 this year for improvements. We are aware that an existing rate ordinance au thorizes us to increase the rates be low the 6-cent maximum, but we are coming to you for acquiescence and co-operation in this situation." Mr. Kennedy explained that the company believed an increase, of 20 per cent of earnings would be neces sary this year to enable the com pany to meet increased operating expenses- andmake necessary im provements and extensions. Support False Valuation. .Cftmmissioner Ure asserted that the light company is supporting at least a theoretical valuation of $16, 000.000. Statements submitted by the com pany showed that during 1919 the gross earnings were . $2,325,433.95, from which was deducted a total of $1,907,022.23 for operating expenses and depreciation charge, leaving a balance Of $418,411.72. . The company indicated that the balance" should have been $883,596 to 3i"eld a "return on minimum val uation." The difference between $883,596 and-$418,411.72 was shown by the company as a deficit of $465, 184.28 for last year. One of the city commissioners insisted that $883,596, which the company indicated should have been the minimum net earnings for last year, would support a valuation of more than $13,000,000, figured on the following basis: t B, 600,000 outstanding bonds on which the company pays 6 per cent In terest s:so,ooo J, 000,000 preferred stock on which 7 per cent ts paid . 280,000 S, 800. 000 common Etoek at 9 per cent 324,000 18. 200,000 V JS84.O0O Explanation was made that the item of $3,600,000 common stock was assumed to complete" the illustra tion. . ' - ; . The cpmpany invites the council to make the closest examination, be lieving they are justified in asking for an increased schedule of rates. . Man, Who Sought Plane To Speed to Bedside of Wife, Believed Insane J. While . in , search of an airplane in which to speed to his wife's bed side in - Phoenix, Ariz., - Ben Van 'Radin, 60 years old, Lanesboro, Ia., was taken in custody by police at the Union station Stfnday after noon. He is being held at Central police station for the arrival of rela tives who will take him home. Ac cording to his son'in-laV, ,fL.' ; E. Jones of Lanesboro, la., Mr. .Van Radiil is demented. " '. - He told police he was on his way to Arizona to see his wife who has "been making, her home in that state tor. some, time in an attempt to re gain) her' health. " Mr. -Van Radin said Mhe train from which he alighted shortly . before his arrst, was "too slow." : . ' ' When he asked Policeman Stead erman ' where an airplane might be found immediately,-the officer took him to th4 police station. ' New Victor Artist Gets , Great Ovation On Debut When Edward Johnson the new tenor of the Chicago Opera com pany, made his American debut re cently, he received one of the great est ovations ever .accorded any singer in this country. Johnson,, who is a Canadian, returned to this coun try after an absence of seven years abroad, where under the name of Edoardo di Giovanni, he triumphed as an operatic tenor. Johnson has since joined the staff of Victor art ists. He is heard on two February Victor records, on one of which he sings "Vesti la Giubba" from "Pag liacci," and on the other a s-ogg of a lover's memory "Her Bright Smile Haunts Me Still." In the Operatic number, Johnson displays the thrilling and powerful qualities of his voice. In the other a roman tic song he demonstrates that his voice has sweet and tender qualities as well, . OMAHAJS WOMAN CONVENTION HEAD ' RESIGNS PLACE Miss Doris . Goethe Goes Into Insurance Succeeded By Mrs. Walker. Miss Doris M. , Goethe, conven tion secretary of tlie Chamber of Commerce for nearly two, years, during which time she acquired a nation-wide reputation as one of the few women holding such a position, has resigned. HeV resignation will take effect on February 15. Miss Goethe has been connected vith the Chamber for nearly seven years, first as, a stenographer, thsn as private secretary, and most re cently as c6nvention secretary. She is leaving the Chamber to assume duties in the woman's department of a large insurance company. Mrs.Mabel E. Walker, manager of the soldiers' employment bureau of the Chamber, has been appointed to ' succeed . Miss Goethe. Mrs. Walker came to the Chamber from the national headquarters of the War Savings committee in Washington.,,. Before that she was secretary of the Omaha War Sav ings , committee, previous to which she was connected with the Foster-Barker Co. for several years. The position as convention host ess is considered most important. Since it was established the number of women accompanying husbands to conventions here has been tripled and it is believed that thousaftds of women have come to Omaha who ordinarily would have regained" at home. Although Mrs. Walker, will devote most of her time to her new duties, she will, continue to supervise the employment bureau. ' The nee'd of the bureau is gradually diminishing, however, and it is only a matter of a month or so until it will 'be closed.
