GERMANS RAID
j. s. SHIP FOR
SCRAPS OF FOOD
Hungry Masses Climb Aboard
Vessels and Eat Raw Flour
SCraped From Under
Foot.

Portland, Ore, June 2S.-Diving
into garbage barrels and scraping
dirty flour from the deck of a ship
is the length to which starving Ger
mans went when the steamer West
Waueneake put into Hamburg re-
Gently. This is the word brought
here by Prescott Sawyer, profess
sional mariner and expert yachts
man of the Pacific coast, navigating
officer of the West Waueneake.
The vessel carried 1000 tons of
flour for the Poles. They went to
Falmouth, England, thence to Ply
mouth and were proceeding to Dan
zig when orders were wirelessed
them to put in at Hamburg instead
because of fighting at Danzig.
THE Germans at Hamburg had
figured to the last teaspoonful how
much flour they'd get of the 1000
TONS" said Sawyer. "They were
mighty disappointed lot when they
learned we were sending it down
the Elbe to the Czecho-Slovaks.
"Our ship was the first of the
United States Shipping board YES
sells to enter Hamburg since the war
started. Women came aboard offer
ing money, jewels-any price at all
for flour and bacon. Children
frove to 10 years of age swarmed
the decks like wharf rats, scraplng
the flour from beneath the feet and
eating it raw.
Sometimes we had more than $50
of them aboard. They dived into
the garbage barrels to get anything
edible at all"
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1919-06-29

Nebraska, or from adjoining or
nearby states. In making their Sur
vey, Messrs. Thomas and Gillian
were particular in ascertaining from
whence these people came and why
they decided to locate in Omaha. AS
a result of this investigation, it was
ascertained that nearly 40 per cen:
of the newly acquired concerns
came from the Atlantic coast terri
tory. About so per cent came from
points east of the east line of Hi
nois, with about 10 per cent coming
from the country south of the Ohio
river.
Auto Concerns Lead.
The reason for moving to Omaha
was explained in the QUESTIONABLE.
Invariably the answer was that they
had heard that Omaha was to be-
come the commercial city of the
country and that they wanted to get
in on the ground floor.
Automobile concerns have been
the most numerous among the new
Corners. In this line of trade 50
new houses have opened for bus
ness. Next in the list are groceries
with % new firms. Fifteen restau-
rants and cafes have been opened,
II realtors, eight doctors, and eight
dentists have located in the city. Six
dealers in oil, including one re-
finery have come to Omaha. There
have been six furniture houses, five
coal dealers, four investment COM
panies, five insurance companies,
three grain dealers, three cement
factories and so on through the list,
about every branch of business be-
ing represented.
The average layman would Sup
pose that with more than 500 new
concerns locating in the city in less
than six months the end would have
been reached. But such is not the
case, for according to Manager
Thomas and Industrial Commission-
er Gillian the beginning of the move
ment to share in the opportunities
that Omaha offers as a manufac-
turing and jobbing city has hardly
started if the inquiries received are
an indication of the business pulse.
Hardly a day passes that they do
not receive letters from men the
country over, asking information
concerning Omaha and the advisa-
bility of investing money in proposi-
tons that will bring good returns.
Settle Housing Problem.
The housing problem has been the
cause for some alarm, but it seems
to be slowly adjusting itself, and it
is the belief of Messrs. Thomas and
Gillian that it will be worked out in
4 satisfactory manner.
1t has been a difficult matter to
find houses and cottages of four to
six rooms that could be rented.
There were reasonable number of
larger houses that were obtainable.
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1919-06-29

Five hundred and twelve individ-
uals, firms and corporations have
engaged in business in Omaha since
January l, 1919. In their business
these 5l2 individuals, firms and cor
porations have invested 100000.
They have given or will give en-
ployment to 1000 persons, adding
NOT less than 5000 to the population
of Greater Omaha.
This industrial growth has been
accomplished in less than six months
and during a time when Omaha was
simply pursuing the even tenor OF
its ways without any attempt at
boosting, or booming.
This growth of Greater Omaha is
considered by business men and
capitalists merely an index of what
is coming later on when readjust-
ment of conditions following the
end of the war is perfected and cap
tai starts moving in normal chan
nels.
Make Commercial Survey.
A few weeks ago Manager
Thomas of the Bureau of Publicity
and Industrial Commissioner Gillian
of tie Chamber of Commerce,
working jointly. started in on an in
dustrial survey of Greater Omaha
for the purpose of ascertaining cor
rect date on the extent of the
growth of the city during the past
months of this year.
To prove the correctness of their
survey, Messrs. Thomas and Gillian
checked the questionnaires as rapidly
as they were returned. Then they
conferred with the commercial
agencies, material men, realtors,
rental agencies and all others who
might have to do with housing
problems and the outcome is looked
upon as conclusive proof that there
are few, if any cities of the country
that is attracting more attention
than Omaha.
Going a little farther with their
survey, Messrs. Thomas and Gillian
have ascertained that the 512 indi-
viduals. firms and corporations that
have cast their lot in Omaha since
January /, during the year, under
normal conditions, will turn out fir
ished products in their respective
lines that will have a commercial
value of not less than $5,000,000
This, too; will be during the first
year after starting in business.
Move From East.
With all business and manufac-
turing concerns the first year is
looked upon as the critical period.
1t is estimated that the second year
in business is 100 per cent better
than the first, and as natural con-
sequence it is expected these same
5l2 concerns. next year will do a
business of Sl0,000000, or better.
1t is interesting to note that but
few of the newcomers came from

BRICK PAVING
COMES INTO ITS
own ONCE AGAIN
Various Communities of Gen.
trail West Plan Paving
Amounting to Millions Of
Dollars.

Brick paving is coming into its
own this year as is shown in the big
contracts signed by various towns
and counties of Nebraska, Iowa and
Kansas. Almost 100000 yards of
paving has already been contracted
for by various towns in Nebraska
alone and will be completed before
the end of the summer Only 1900
yards of this work will be asphll
paving.
Jobs on which bids are still to be
taken include another 100000
worth of work, all to be brick paw
ing, with a concrete base and sand
filler. The total cost of the paving
may be realized when one figures
that each yards costs from 1906 to
$500, or a total of almost $4,000, 900.
Contracts already signed call for
Lexington, $4,000 yards; Shelton,
10000; St. Paul, 10000; Humphrey,
$4,000; St. Edwards, 10000; Madi-
son, $4,000: Clay Center, 1880:
Geneva, $4,000; Crete, $4,000; Hum
bolt 10000; Wahoo, $4,000; Hold
redge, $4,000; and Hastings. $4,000.
Asphalt contracts for $4,000 yards
of asphalt at Albion and 10000
yards at Fulton have also beer
made. In addition to these towns
there will be contracts placed for
miles and miles of more brick paw
ing at McCook, Tecumseh, North
Bend, Laurel, Wayne, Stromsburg,
Polk and Osceola.
In the western part of the state
of Iowa there will be another &c.,
600 yards of pavement laid and in
Kansas another million yards of
paving will be constructed this year.
A good deal of county paving is also
being planned.
In addition to the paving Of
streets in the various cities of this
and surrounding states. comes the
paving of country highways and
crossroads. Douglas county voted
Tuesday on a 100000 bond issue
for the paving of roads in the coun-
ty and various Iowa counties also
voted favorable on the paving issue
These items, of course, also will run
into millions.

but the smaller ones, particularly
those that were modern and well
located, were minus quantity.
Men with means and others owning
additions to the city saw the trend
of affairs and commenced building,
with the result that during the last
90 days, it is estimated that not less
than 1000 small houses have been
erected and the majority of them
occupied.
A large number of the recently
erected houses have been sold on
the small and easy payment plan
and consequently Omaha has been
able to take care of those who have
