'WILL ERECT SIX BUILDINGS Six big bufldings will constitute eventually the complete plant of the Crown Tire and Rubber company, to , manufacture the Crown Cord. tires for automobiles and ~ motoreycles,~ and other lines of rubber goods. The company Thursday filed ar- ticles of incorporation with an initial capital stock of §250,000. The incor- poratars are Henry A. Reichenbach of Omaha, Henry C. Meier of Coun- cil Bluffs and Jesse P.

Seek Best Ideas. Architect A. P. Johnson of Omaha is to prepare the plans. He is.sdon going east to look over plants of the various big tire companies there: and gather ideas as to some of the best points in the construction of such _ plants, v In the meantime, the company is to establish temporary quarter® in another locality; farther southwest in Ralston, and i$ to begin the manu- facture of the tires, so that in sixty days from now they expect to be pro- ducing tires. ; The first unit’of the main plant is to be 80 by 150 and four stories high. Within five years the company 'ex- pects to have the full six units con- structed and to be turning out vast quantities of tires. Market Assured. The Crown Cord tire is a new inven- tion; protected by patent right. The Principal feature is that it is rein- forch,with three plies of stout cords, overlapping and continuous, no cord being entirely cut in (he(llpping of the threg” plies. My, Reichenbach ' %ays he has already orders that will practically insure a market for the entire first year's output. 1\ “When " the first unit of the fac- tory is compjeted,” said Mr. Reichen- bach, “wé will émploy abéut 125 men per day. ~ Last year $6,000,000 went ) &nfi of Nebraska for tires, and $9,000, ‘went out of Towa.

W. Carpenter, mem- ber of the school board. The increase in taxation will not be permanent, however, he says, because matters would be equalized through the re- duction of expenses and the taxpayer will, in his opinion, ultimatelf be bet- ter off. ? . V. Warfield, anothag member of the Boagd of Education, said: “The only sofution I can see is to raise the tax_levy to cover the ambunt which would otherwise be provided by the saloon licensg money, The school budget is fixed, or practically fixed, and fif the saloon licenses are cut off there appears to be only one solu- tion, and that is an ifcrease of taxes.” 3 / John L.
