not interfered with any other public

is not now attempting to force any

it is ready, able and willing to take
over and operate the local electric
service under its own conservative

should be the public will. A restor-

Storz Asks Contributions
of SIS for Memorial Park
Project, in Behalf of
County's Service Men
a n d Women

Robert H. Storz, president Of the
Memorial Park Association, today
asks that relatives, friends and bus
mess firms recognize the contribu'
ton made by Douglas County men
and women in the military service by
making SIS contributions in their
names to the World War ii Mem
orial Park project.
This is a living memorial Storz
said. The plan is to have the names
of all the county's service people
permanently inscribed in a suitable
location in the Park, Association Of
ficials said.
Storz said he believes relatives,
friends and employers of people now
in the service will be anxious to give
SIS in the names of each of these peo-
pie and in honor of their friends
who have given the full measure OF
devotion.
Association officials pointed out
that while employers undoubtedly
will see to it that the names Of their
employees are honored with a SIS
contribution, there are thousands OF
young men who have gone into the
service and who are not employed.
Contributions in the names Of these
employed. Contributions in the
names of these younger men no
doubt will come from their relatives
or friends.
1T is the hope of our committee
that 100000 will be contributed bv
relatives friends and business firms
this month SO we can complete our
drive for $262,5O0 needed to finance
the project" Mr.. Storz said. This
plan gives everyone the opportunity
to have a part in a fine and noble
project.
There are more than 10000 local
men and women in the service of
their country that are doing a gall
liant job" continued Mr.. Storz.
Here is an opportunity for us to
create and develop a project to show
our fighting men and women we are
proud Of their efforts and sacrifice
es which in short time will result in
victory for the American and Allied
forces"
Mr.. Storz said the plan to honor
the living service men and women is
simple. Anyone can have a part in
the project by making a S. contribu-
ton.
All you need to do is designate the
man or woman you want honored.
a certificate will acknowledge the
contribution. The certificate will Be
sent to the contributor or the near
est KIN as designated by the donor.
All contributions should be mailed
to MI. James P. Lee, treasurer.

Statement by The
Directors of Your
Utilities District

The Metropolitan Utilities Dis
trict was created more than thirty
years ago as the agency to operate
and manage public utilities acquired
BY the people of Omaha. Facts anG
figures which are we'll known prove
that it has performed its duties well.
Regardless of any criticism of its
set-up, personnel or policies, this
District remains a nationally recog-
nized and outstanding proven exam
pie of successful public ownership.
1t has always possessed powers as t.
the operation Of electric utilities UNI
til the last legislature took them a.
way under L. B. 2O4, and attempted
to make them effective through a
Peoples Power Commission. 1t now
appears that procedure has failed,
