WARREN BROS. STAY IN OMAHA
Ralph Warren Announces Intention
of Taking Part in Paving
Campaign Here.

Ralph Warren, secretary of Warren
Bros. Paving company Of Bostor Mass,
was in the city recently and spent the day
with John Grant, the resident vice presi-
dent Of the Nebraska Bitulthic company.
Mr.. Warren examined the Bitullthic COM
pany's plant and looked over the paving
situation thoroughly while in Omaha Con-
trary TO reports that have been given out
with respect to the removal OF the Warren
Bros. plant from this city, It Is expressly
stated that no intention exists OF removing
such plant and that the company proposes
to continue to offer to the taxpayers Of the
city of Omaha the opportunity Of taking
advantage of the modern paving PROPOSE
ton and II is hoped that the legislature
this winter will see fit to amend the charter
90 that bitulithic pavement may be allowed
to enter In free competition with other
pavement upon its merits.
Mr.. Warren stated that they had con-
tracts for over 100000 yards of paving. for
next spring, with a prospect OF the largest
business ever done by them. He Is also
firmly OF the opinion that Omaha offers an
unusually large field for their kind OF
pavement and Is only desirous,.of being
able to present the situation fairly before
the public with an equal legislative oppor-
tunity. inasmuch as the bitullthio pave
meRt has won out wherever Il was brought
