WATER BOND RETIREMENT CLEARS
WAY FOR s2,2oo,ooo IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM WITHOUT INCREASE IN
WATER RATES
URGENTLY NEEDED REPLACEMENTS
AND ADDITIONS TO CITY WATER
SYSTEM WILL NOW BE UNDERTAKEN
UNDER FIVE-YEAR M0DERNIzATI0N
PLAN, LONG Deferred BECAUSE Of
DEBT OBLIGATIONS.

The last of the bonded indebtedness on Omuhu's
water plant and distributing system has been re-
tired. The original bond issue Of S 100000 duthor-
lied to mature December Is. l94l. has been pdid in
full. and Omaha now owns q municipal water works
dnd system with q going value Of approximately
Sl5.000.000.
Credit for this unique achievement goes to the
citizens of Omaha themselves. and to the long list
of prominent directors. capable executives and faith
full employees Of the wuter department TO whom the
people entrusted the success Of their enterprise.
For the first time in its 3oyear history. Omahais
wuter department con look forward to q program Of
adequate maintenance and extension of its service.
Since July l. 1912. when the plant wds purchased.
the water department wds required Legally to lay
aside portions OF its revenue for bond ~redemptons
and interest. This obligation. coupled with extremely
low fire hYdrunt rental rates and domestic water
rates. has restricted requirements and improve
ments to q minimum required for public safety and
service.
Revenue formerly absorbed by interest and debt
requirements CON now be devoted to modernizdtion
and rehabilitation of the water plant and system.
service improvements and maintenance. replace
ments Of obsolete equipment. The long deferred
projects ore estimated to toke about five years at
q cost of approximately So. 100000. This program
could not be undertaken in the post without in
creusing fire hYdrdnt, industrial and domestic woter
rates.
Following completion Of the modernizotion pro-
grum. adequate financial reserves CON be occumu-
lated to meet increased service demands from this
growing city.
Omdhd's rdtes ore among the lowest in the nation
at the present time. When the city acquired the
water works in 1912 the base domestic water rate
wds 26A cents per 100 cubic feet. After eight con-
secutive reductions the present base domestic rote
is l2k cents IL. q reduction Of more than one-hdlf.
On this bdsis Omaha users have saved more than
Sl2.000.0o0 in water costs. Approximately Sl,8e0.000
has been saved TO the city through reductions Of
fire hYdrGnt rental rates. although over one-quorter
of the Sl5.000.000 water plont is devoted to fire
protection.
Since the acquisition of the wuter plont the num-
Der OF customers hos risen from 22.974 to 54.720:
employees from III to 226; miles of main from 245
to 602; fire hYdrdnts from 2.053 to 1882.
Retirement Of bonded indebtedness will help
provide q modern. properly maintained. adequate
wafer service for the city Of Omohd during the
national emergency. with continued low rates and
reserves for future contingencies.

Panama Investigates
Arminq Of It's Ships

The Panamanian government
through its consul in New York, to-
day began an inquiry among op-
orators of Panama registered mer-
chant ships to find out how many OF
the ships are armed.
DR.. Carlos Brin, Panama's Am
bassador here. said he and his gov
ernment were astonished to learn
that at least some of the ships have
been armed, but he has offered no
objection. The New York inquiry is
being undertaken simply for infor-
nations sake. not for the basis of
any diplomatic action.
The Ambassador has been in
formed that the American Navy
placed guns on the ships, many of
which are used in the English Serv-
ice. The sinking of the United
States owned. Panama registered
S. S. Pink Star between Greenland
and Iceland brought the revelation
that at least some of the ships are
armed.
Dr.. Brin said neither the Navy nor
the State Department told him any,
thing about the armings Most of

now has the sixth largest merchant
marine in the world, about 100000
tons.

OdIum Urges Large Plants
To Speed Subcontracts
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-Asserting
that big manufacturers faced the
most serious business challenge they
had ever known, FLOYD B. Odlum.
director of the contract distribution
division Of o. P. M, called upon the
large industries last night to spread
their national defense work among
smaller plants.
In a radio address Mr.. Odlum said:
What greater indictment could
be made of big business than to
nave 1t said that in the Nations
graVest crisis little business per-
1shed, while big business kept orders
piled up for long-term future de-
livery that could have been passed
on"
Mr.. Odlum suggested that big
manufacturers, who. he said. were
subcontracting already more than
generally believed" act as q
mother hen to a whole brood of
Suo-contractors. The brood must
ever increase in size up to the limits
OF your own assembling and super
visory capacity.
Remember that you can't pro-
duce more than the capacity of
your plant, that you will be kept
busy for the full period of the
emergency and that defense produc-
ton will not continue when the
emergency is ended,' he added.

orders that the Gambela territory
should be respected regardless of the
war situation. Three months after
the Belgians gained Gambela, Aosta
was himself a prisoner in the same
Sudanese resthouSe at Malakal,
where Maj. Morris proceeded for
refuge after receiving Aostas warn
ing. When Maj. Morris returned to
Gambela in the wake of the Belgian
Colonlals, he found everything in
tact and unharmed, including his
radio station.
To storm Gambela the BelgianS
extremely fatigued by their 300
mile, 1l-day journey from Asosa,
were obliged to make a direct
frontal attack upon the village be-
side the Baro River. The Italians
placed machine-gun nests under
meath row of sycamore trees along
the rlverbank, making attack BY
water impossible. A second line of
machine guns, totaling eight. were
placed so that their fire covered the
road from the Sudanese desert as
far as "Sugarloaf," flanking the
road on the off-riVer side. Sugar
loaf is a 300-foot, conical hill rising
directly from the marshes. Its peak
f1ankS were ringed by the Italians
with machine guns in order to pro-
vide double domination noy only of
the road. but also the riverside and
the British barracks and radio sta
ton.
The Belgians sent Congolese in
fantrymen creeping through the
brush led by a white officer. pistol
in hand. They silenced the ma
chine guns on the river and then
prepared to handle Sugarloaf. The
machine guns on the latter harried
them constantly. but like most ma
chine-gun fire from a height, it was
overcompensated and fell too low.
Charge Is Successful.
The Italians had given the as
sortment OF Congolese tribes max
ing up the Belgian infantry the COL
lective name of "niam- MANS"
Nam means meat and meat
meat" is black so meat hungary
that he is a cannibal Although
himself employing Gallas and Am
harites offcered by Eritreans. Gen.
Gazzera protested against the Bel
gians using niam-niams as bar
bariouS.
Fully aware of the Italians mis-
givings about their appetities. the
Congolese urged their officers to al
low them to charge the steep sides
of Sugarloaf with fixed bayonets.
The charge was made and the ma
chine-gun nest wiped out The
Belgians lost infantrymen killed,
plus white officers and Is Con-
golese wounded. Belgian losses
were augmented the following day,
March %, when the italians sent
two Caproni bombers which de-
stroyed several buildings in the viii
lage.
The Italians refused to admit their
number of casualties stating that
they themselves were ignorant how
many bodies were lying in the thick,
swamp grass Numerous Italian
corpses were found unburied in the
streets here.
After the Belgian battalion took
Gambela, the Italians mounted by

TT seems to me that it is more
important to maintain full supplies

fact that the main part of the

Delay Is Greater Risk.

"Bickering over national policy at
a time of crisis cannot go on for
ever because the risk of pro-
longed consideration is greater than
the risk of an erroneous decision" T"
Democratic states must rely for
their very existence on recognition
of these truths by their citizens, Mr..
McNutt maintained.
1T is the anomaly of a free gov
ernment," he said, that it guaran-
tees the legal right to the individual
to follow course which would de-
stroy it. 1t must necessarily depend
upon the moral obligation of the
citizen not to exercise that right.
THE individual who fails to OBJ
serve this obligation-the man who
refuses to conform to the popular
will who rejects the collective enter
prise at time when the full ma
tional strength is required-I say
that man endangers his country and
betrays his fellow citizens"

Easy Initiation Cures
Questioned by MoNuti
As Initiated Fascism
Victory Must Be Won
In Democratic Way,
He Tells Lawyers Guild

Warning that I'VE cannot afford
to fight FasCism with a taWdry imi-
tation of the thing We are fighting
for Federal Security Administra-
tor McNutt today questioned the
wisdom of imposing drastic reStric-
tions on installment buying and of
proposed acceleration of pay roll
tax increases for oldage insurance.
Such steps are apparently simple
and easy WAYS to check imitation,
Mr. McNutt asserted in an address
before the National Executive Board
of the National Lawyers Guild al
the Hotel Lee-Sheraton. But, he
admonished, such devices must put
it beyond the power of millions of
industrial workers to buy civilian
consumers goods.
''Since there are not enough au-
tomobiles to go around" he said. we
make it difficult or impossible for
the low income group to buy them.
The~man who can pay cash for a
radio will have no trouble in getting
one at something like the normal
price because dozen potential buy
ers are unable TO make the first in
stallment payment.
Questions Total Effects.
This may tend to keep the price
down but is it the democratic way
of doing it?"
Mr.. McNutt commented that per-
haps we are seizing easy solutions
to the imitation problem without
thinking through the total effects
upon our economy and our democ-
racy.
Turning TO suggestions from some
quarters that wage limitations and
priorities should be applied 10 labor
if profit limitations and priorities
are TO be effective in industry, Mr.
McNutt declared that the fallacv of
these proposals lies in their applica-
ton of like rules to unlike problems.
When We deal with profits" he
explained, we are dealing with
property. When we deal with the
labor of human being we are deal
ing with a human liberty. There is
difference-and it is the biggest
difference in the world.
Democratic Way Must Win.
IF we will but remember the
flaming fact of history that a people
are free when their labor is free,
and not otherwise, we can meet the
challenge of the dictators, not on
their terms. but on our own, with
the fun power of democracy I'M
leashed to assure us ultimate vic
tory The war between the
dictators and the democracies must
be won in a democratic way as well
as for a democratic cause"
The Federal Security administra-
tor said that self discipline and re-
straint are required of the individual
when fighting issues have once been
determined by the processes of pop
ular government.
And in the critical phases of the
national life" he continued. "deci-
sions must at some point become
final as prelude and guide to
action. When that point is reached,
continued debate breeds disunity,
encourages diSaffection and saps the
strength of the democratic organ
ism.
