COUNCIL TO PASS
ORDINANCE FOR
GARBAGE GRANT
Contract Gives Henry Pollack
$4,000 a Year from
City.

The city council committee, of the
whole yesterday recommended for
passage today an ordinance which
grants to Henry Pollack five-year
garbage contract, for consldera-
ton Of $45,000 per year to be paid
by the city.
This matter has been held in
allegiance nearly two months, pend
ing the return of Mayor Smith. 1t
provides that Mr.. Pollack shall col
lect and dispose of all garbage
within the city limits, according to
rules and regulations as shall be
prescribed by the health depart
ment.
1t is also agreed that the disposal
grounds shall be outside of the city.
Mr.. Pollack stated that he has
leased tract of land at Debolt sta.
ton, a few miles northwest OF
Florence, where he will operate a
hog-feeding farm.
The city has been collecting
garbage in its own equipment and
selling il to high bidders on con-
tract arrangements. This equip
ment will be sold when the Pollack
contract becomes effective January
|, 1920.
CITY Commissioner Butler voted
alone against the Pollack contract,
his reason being that he is opposed
to five-year contracts. He believes

OMAHA WILL Be
REGULAR STOP OF
GIANT BALLOON
First Trip Of DirigibIe to Be

Says Director of Aerial
Navigation.

The first transcontinental pas.
senger dirigible in this country, now
in process Of construction in New
York City, will make Omaha one
OF its main stations on regular
transcontinental flights, according
to word received at the Chamber
OF Commerce yesterday.
Aside from being the first lighter
than-air craft to be built for pas
senger service in the United States
the dirigible will be the largest and
most completely equipped in the
world, its builders claim.
1t will carry with safety and com
fort o5 passengers, a crew of Is
men, one ton of mail, one ton of sup
plies, one ton of baggage and two
tons of fuel, according to Thomas
V. Farrell, one of the directors OF

FIRST WARNING
TO SAVE COAL IS
ISSUED TOPUBLIC
I criminal Chairman Says Crisi:
In Omaha Not Yet
Passed.

H. L. Snyder, acting president of
the terminal coal committee, yes
terday issued his first warning to
the public of the necessity to con-
serve coal. The warning was not
given to alarm the people, but to
impress them that the possibility of
a coal famine here has not passed,
Mr. Snyder explained.
by practicing economy in the
use of coal / believe such a famine
can be averted," said Mr.. Snyder.
"The crisis is not yet passed. If
the mines are not running in the
next 10 days, the situation will be
very serious. 1t will be less serious
if the people practice careful
economy, however"
Mr.. Snyder announced yesterday
that a total of 410 cars of commercial
cal held by the railroads had been
released to consignees in Omaha
since last Friday. Of this amount
234 cars went to retail dealers and
public utilities for current retail
COIlSulHptlOI, ana ITO cars u puDllC
utilities and manufacturing plants
for steam power purposes.
Priority List Followed.
In making this release, the pri-
ority list, on which railroads, army
and navy and other government in
situations, state and county build
ings, and public utilities are at the
head, has been carefully follwed,
Mr.. Snyder said.
As yet, however, no railroads in
this section of the country have di-
verified any coal for their own use,
according to Mr.. Snyder, and coal
is arriving in Omaha at the rate OF
Is cars a day. Retail dealers have
made no estimates of the coal
which they had on hands, Mr.. Sny-
der said.
H. ]. Plumof, assistant to the fed
eral manager of the Union Pacific
railroad, said yesterday that he be-
lieved sufficient coal would be OBJ
tanned from Utah mines tc keep the
Union Pacific trains going, without
diverting any consigned coal.
