is scheduled for this evening at a meeting of the board of aldermen. In the event of the passage of the ordinance tonight no more surety or real estate bonds will be accept ed from plumbers. Instead they will have to take out actual lia- bility insurance and file their poe licies with the city before they will be granted permits to open side- walks or thoroughfares.
 The action on the part of the city is understood to be the re- suit of much technical litigation through which the municipality has been forced to travel in the local courts in recent years. Many times contractors escaped without paying damages and the city was held liable.
 During many years past the city has only required contractors to file. surety or property bond a. mounting to $3,000 before they were given permits to open side- walks or streets to install sewers or water mains or to make re- pairs.
 The ordiance scheduled for en- actment requires all plumbers to procure Q policy of $10,000 cover- ing personal liability and protect ing not only the contractor, but the municipality. In addition, a policy of $1,000 will be required from contractors protecting the city and the contractor in the event of property damage.

ABDUCTORS OF
 JACK FACTOR TO TELLOF RANSOM
They Want S75,000 for Jake the Barber and Will Explain How toI Pay It

 Chicago, July 3.-(UP)--Kid- napers holding captive John (Jake the Barber) Factor promised to furnish instructions to-day for pay ment of the $75,000 ransom they demand for release of the man re puted to have made million dol- lars last week in the booming wheat market.
 Although the ransom was re- duced from q purported $200,OO0, Factors son, 10, himself Kidnapped and held for $100,000 less than three months ago, searched fran- tically but apparently in vain for the money.
 Jerome talked to man who said he was one of the kidnapers by telephone last night. It was the third attempt of the abductors to communicate with him, the youth believed. The call came 10 the home of his mother, Mrs Leon- ard Marcus, Factors first wife. A short while before two other calls, apparently from the same man, were received at tho home while Young Factor was at his Morri. son nOtei QudTLeTS hTOiH WHeEo hS- gotlations are being conducted.
 Jerome, a student at Northwest ern university, said the caller spoke in a quiet, cultured voice.
 Have $75,000 in small bills ready tomorrow morning." Factor said !, the caller told him. "I'll get iii touch with you then for further instructions"
 Factor asked if his father was safe, but the voice said that's all'' and the connection was broken. :.
 Factor was convinced the call was authentic. With more than 56 hours elapsed since Factor was seized, no progress had been made in- efforts to obtain cash, young Ractor said.
 T don't know where I could raise $75,000," he said after sleep. less hours of waiting for word from the kidnapers. ..
 "I wish the kidnapers would realize that we have no money {. We have no way of getting access 10 dads securities"
