BUILDERS EXCHANGE
TO TALK NEW DEPOT
President Hay Gould Will Bring
Matter Up for Discussion at
Meeting: Tuesday.
MAKY ENDORSE PROJECT
The Omaha Builders' exchange Is
to take tip tbe matter of the need of
a new union station for Omaha at its
next regular meeting which is to be
held Tuesday evening of this week.
President Ray Gould has indicated
that he expects to bring the matter
before the exchange at that time In
ordbt to Ret an expression of opinion
from the members.
"I don't believe I will ssy anything
about the need of a new station now until
I bring it before the exchange." said
President Gould. "I d rather wslt until j
I snesk officially for the exchange. I
will brine It before them at the next
( meeting, which will be Tuesday evening."
Mince the Associated tietaiirrs oi irmana
endorsed the movement for a new union
station, and called upon other commer
clsl and civic organizations to co-operate
In the movement, several organisations
are planning to take It up aa soon as
possible.
a 4 risk In Coasleer.
Another organization that expects te
consider the matter soon Is the Ad club.
President R. B. Wallace eald he would
bring the matter up at tha next meeting
of the executive committee of the club
st the Commercial club rooms next
Thursday.
Mr. Wallace had no hesitancy, however.
In expressing his personal opinion. "From
en advertising man's standpoint," ha
said, "there Is nothing that strikes a
stranger more strongly than his first Im
pression of a city, snd that Impreeeioa
as gained from our. railway stations In
Omaha la not flattering. There Is no
greater asset to a city than the first Im
pression a stranger gets when he strikes
that city. Omaha should hsve a great
union depot for that. If for no other
reason. I expect to bring the matter up
before the executive committee at tha
meeting Thursday."
Charles It. Sherman, head ef the Brier-
man-McConnell drug Interests, and for
mer president of the Associated Retailers
of Omaha, said: "What more earnest
can we have than the fine Union Faclflo
headquarters building In Omaha that the
rallroade wilt give us what wa want? I
believe the rallroade mean well by us.
Every time X look at the Union Paclflo
headquartere building I feel that Tbe
Union Paclflo built that fine structure
there when It certainly could have built
It elsewhere, and It did It, mind you,
when Omaha was not booming by any
means."
