TO REDUCE INTEREST RATE
Member Homan of school BOARD Pre-
pares Bill for Incoming
Legislature.

w. r. Homan Of the Board OF Education
has prepared a bill to be presented to the
legislature governing the rate OF interest
on warrants issued by school boards and
also reducing the rates OF interest on state
and municipal bonds. In speaking Of thu
former feature OF the bill Mr.. Holman
said:
A the present time the school board
OF the city Of Omaha is by law compelled
TO pay 7 per cent interest on the warrants
which are issued and cannot be paid on
account Of lack Of funds. The average
amount of these warrants outstanding at
all times is 500, 900, which now according
to law represents an outlay Of 1000 per
year for interest. We have recently made
an arrangement Nth the banks Of the
city by which they pay back to the school
board 2 per cent, making the net cost to
the board s. 1000 per year. Under the pro-
posed law this will be the amount which
the warrants will draw and no extra ar
rangement will be necessary to bring the
result.
omitting the formal parts the bill az
drafted by Mr.. Homan is as follows:
All warrants or orders hereafter issued
city, township, school district, except
school districts In metropolitan cities. or
Olnef munlClpal SUBDIVISIONS less than a
county. shall draw interest from and after
the date of presentation for payment at
the rate Of Z per cent per annum. All
warrants or orders hereafter issued by the
proper authority OF any school district
within the corporate limits OF a metropoli-
tan city shall draw interest from and after
the date Of presentation for aymen at
the rate of 5 per cent per annum All
warrants hereafter issued by the proper
authorities OF this state shall draw interest
at the rate of 4 per cent per annum from
the date of their presentation for
No bonds hereafter issued by any county,
city, township, precinct or school district
shall draw interest at a rate exceeding
6 per rent ner annum

DEMAND FOR FIRE ESCAPES
Owners Of Some Omaha Buildings Will
Have TO Make improvements
CHICAGO DISASTER PROMPTS PROBATION
BuiidiBE Inspector Carter and Deputy
Labor ommIssioBer watson Mo-
tify Owners and Of
Existing Deficiencies.

Prompted TO precautionary action by the
recent hotel disaster in Chicago and the
enforced resignation OF the building in
spector Of that city, Building Inspector
Carter has within the last few days d.
rected his attention very closely to the
FIRE escape equipment Of the hotels and
other large buildings OF this city. Not by
any means satisfied with conditions as he
found them, Mr.. Carter notified the man
Rgement OF several OF the hotels and one
or two business houses that the number
Of FIRE escapes on their buildings must be
Increased before January 1 or he will ap-
peal to the courts for enforcement Of the
precautions which he considers necessary.
Discussing his matter, Mr.. Carter said:
I'm compliance with the state law and
the ordinances Of the city, c.. f. Watson,
deputy state labor commissioner. and /
made a thorough tour of this whole city
for the purpose Of inspecting fire escapes
on buildings where such protection is
necessary and recommending such Inn
provements in that line as we might deem
TO be necessary. We found many buildings
not sufficiently provided and recommended
q number OF new FIRE escapes, not only on
hotels, but on fiat buildings and business
houses, where there are large numbers Of
employees.
Inspector VIII he VigiIant.
'In reading OF this Chicago disaster and
the consequences to the building inspector
Of that city / became convinced that I
could not be too vigllant in this branch Of
the work and, although knew our recon-
mendations had been carried out in most
instances. ! also feared that perhaps some
OF the buildings were not even yet properly
equipped. Yesterday l asked the chief Of
the FIRE department to go with me and we
ings. including the larger hotels and, while
we found things generally in very salts
factory condition, there are some few in
stances where danger still exists. I find
that the fat buildings and practically all
of the business houses have been equipped
as directed. There is one large firm whose
new building has not yet been furnished
with fire escapes, but they are to be put
on at once.
II have named January 1 as the date
for the improvements to be made, but in
some cases It may be impossible to have
the work completed by that time. There
fore I shall not be captious about It and II
! find that all diligence is being exercised
to comply with the requirements I shall
be satisfied. But II l should find that in
any cases the responsible persons are try
ing to evade what is required OF them by
law I shall take the matter directly to
the courts and prosecute to the fullest
extent.
