until they are now so large that pro-
ducts must be sold abroad. In this
condition the manufacturers no long
err want to pay the high prices neces.
sary for material under a protective
tariff"
Mr.. Redneld declared that instead
of foreign labor being cheaper, Am
erlcan labor is really the cheapest in
the world, that no labor produces as
much product in proportion to the
wages It receives as American.
Mr. Redfeld attacked the republi-
can principle of tariff, equal to the
difference of cost at home and abroad"
saying it was impossible to determine
this difference. He said the Ameri.
can tariff board "is worthless unless
empowered to call for the cost sheets
of the factories engaged in the line of
manufacture it is studying" adding
that often the American cost of pro-
duction is lower.

Granting of a saloon license to Lo-
dor d Adams and increasing salaries
of city officials were the features at
the city council last night.
There was no excitement when the
Lodor & Adams petition came up.
There were forty-two signatures Of
property owners to the petition and
the bonds were signed by three Nor
folk citizens. The bonds, said the
city attorney, were legal and the pc
tition carried with Kaufman and Am
arine not voting
The increasing of salaries took up
much time, the discussion being cen
tered on the water commissioner the
city attorney and the police judge.
The water commissioner salary was
increased from $500 to 5000 per year.
The city attorneys salary went up
from $4OO to $500 per year.
The police judges salary, which was
suggested at $3.50 per year, was voted
down to $42O and at last it went as
low as $500 per year. The judge is to
turn over all collections in police court
to the city.
The city physician gets a salary of
$40 per month.
The Junction police salary went up
from $500 per year to 1920.
a suggestion was made that the
Union Pacific do something at once in
regard to a new depot. The city at
torney was requested to take up the
question with the state railway com
mission.
The Ad clubs petition to have 6
sidewalk built on the east side Of Sew
enth street between Park and Norfoll
avenue was passed favorably upon
and a walk will be ordered in. The
club contemplated having this part O.
! the railroads right-of-way parked al
the way to the Junction but the plar
was given up in favor of the walk.

NEED SIX STORY BUILDING.

The time is ripe for a six-story Of
flee building in Norfolk" said a Nor.
folk manufacturer, who has just re-
turned from a trip to Cuba. "a six
story building at the corner of Fourth
street and Norfolk avenue, on the
Bear & Rainbolt lots, would be a pay
ing proposition"
Business men in Norfolk generally
feel that the time has come for the
providing of more buildings for peo-
pie who want to do business here and
for those who want to live here.
There is a shortage not only in store
buildings, but likewise in office rooms
and in homes. And Norfolk, on the
verge of big growth, must provide
'places for new enterprises and new
people to live in, it is argued.
A few weeks ago a and 10 cent
store syndicate came to Norfolk to
look for a store room. Finding none
available, they located in another Ne.
braska town.
With the demand that there is here
today, business men argue that there's
highly satisfactory return awaiting
investment in more buildings.
