OMAIIANS MAY
LIVE IN TENTS
THIS SUMMER
Bill to Permit Citizens Here
and Elsewhere to Borrow
Army Tents for Purpose
Introduced.
"We're tenting tonight on the old
park grounds," may be a popular
long in Omaha this summer unless
the house shortage is relieved, in the
opinion of T. M. Gillan, industrial
manager of the Chamber of Com'
irerce.
Mr. Gillan has been notified that
bill to permit Omaha and other
titles of the country to borrow tents
from the War department for sum
mer housing use this year will soon
be passed.
If it is actually passed, the serious
problem of finding houses for resi
dents will be solved, at least until
fall, and Omaha's vacant land will
be turned into tent cities, he says. ,
Senator Harding of Ohio, who in
troduced the "tent" bill, suggested
that tents be raised on the squares
and recreation grounds in crowded
cities. Park Commissioner . Fal
coner announced today that he
thought the plan was "feasible" and
that he would look into the matter.
"We already have a small space
on the east side of Carter lake re
served for tenters," he said, "and
it has been very popular. If tents
are furnished by the government I
suppose we will have to enlarge the
space or find other places for them."
Don't Need Tents.
"How about Jefferson square?"
Mr. Falconer was asked.
"They seem to get along without
tents there," replied the commis
sioner. Col. G. S. 'Bingham, zone surplus
supply officer here, said there was
a large quantity of tents in Omaha
depots that would be turned over
to the public when the bill is
"Wouldn't mind living in one my
self," he smiled. "Like old times.
Plenty of fresh air, too."
May Establish Omaha as
. Honey Distribution Center
: In Vesponse to a request received
yesterday from the Nebraska Honey
'Producers' association, the agricul
tural bureau of the Chamber of
Commerce is investigating the es
tablishment in Omaha of a dis
tributing agency, to handle honey I
produced in Nebraska and western
Iowa.
vAccording to the honey producers,
the market for honey is good in this
state, but distribution has ' always
been poorly organized. There is op
portunity, the bee keepers insist, for
a firm to establish a prosperous
honey business at Omaha.
II. F. Mcintosh, manager of the
bureau, plans to take up the matter
with syrup manufacturers and job
bers and wholesale grocers at once.
Confesses to Charge -
Frank Beahm, 20 years old, 107

that he issued bogus checks to give
