For many months northern Nebras-

local parties were members of a gang
which was doing the thieving. But no

been devised. 1t is believed by many

MIGHT LEASE BUILDINGS
INDUSTRIAL COMPANY WANTS
LIVE INSTITUTION.
WHICH WOULD EMPLOY LABOR
President n. A. PaseWalk of Industrial
Company Believes That Directors
Would be Glad to Encourage Any
Promising Worthy Industry.

While unwilling to speak for other
folk Industrial company, H. A. Pase-
walk, president, declared that he
thought the packing industry proposed
by e. H. Luikart of Tilden might be
encouraged with a lease on the old
sugar factory buildings and that prob
ably the lease could be arranged for
long time if, after three or four years,
it was apparent that an industry large
enough to justify such a grant were
developed. 1t is the opinion of Mr.
Pasewalk that an industry which will
employ 100 men the year around is
needed for the sugar factory building,
but he said he realized that all of
these industries must start small and
grow gradually and that he believed if
the organizers of the packing company
would call a meeting of the directors
of the Industrial company to discuss
the matter, an agreement might be
reached.
Mr.. Pasewalk said that he believed
the stockholders and directors would
be unwilling to turn over the sugar
factory for a life time to an industry
which could only employ from twenty
five to forty men. 1t was his idea that
perhaps the company if it were con-
WINGED that the packers were in good
faith, might be willing to turn over
the factory buildings for a period of
three years. for instance, and that pay
ment of insurance and taxes would be
all that the company would require as
lease money. At the end of that time
if the industry had grown to proper
tons where it was employing a large
number of men the year around, he
said that he thought there would be
no trouble about extending the time
of lease on this basis for an indefinite
period.
President Pasewalk had received no
ntimation of the proposed plan except
through The News and therefore had
not in any way taken up the matter
officially with other directors and
stockholders. He said that the stock
holders and directors are anxious to
get an industry started here which
will employ large number of men.
He said that if the packing company
were to employ but a comparatively
small number of men, and would not
branch out, he would be in favor of
buying a smaller building that could
be had cheaply and convert it into that
use.
Il have said before" said Mr.. Pase-
walk, that we did not want to let the
sugar factory to a small industry which
promised no bigger things after a pc
Rod of years. For instance, | have
not been in favor of encouraging a
small canning factory, because the
property is too valuable to turn over
to so small an institution. The old
creamery building could be had for
the use of some smaller industry. But
| If this packing company is in earnest
and simply wants the use of the build
ings and not a donation of the proper
ty, and If they can show the directors
that they will probably grow into a
plant employing 100 men, | believe
that the company would be glad to
encourage them with three or four
year lease without charge, excepting
that they should pay the taxes and in.
