LESS SYNAGOGUE IN RUSSIA NOW Moscow. (J. T. A.) — There are now 646 synagogues less in Russia than there were before the Revolution, statistics made public here today reveal. While there were more than 1400 synagogues 'in the Ukraine in 1914, at the end of 1929 there are only 894. The other 140, which have been converted into clubs, factories and storehouses are located in White and Central Russia. In all of Russia the proportion of closed synagogues is exactly the same - proportion as' the liquidated Christian churches. Last month thirteen synagogues iin different Ukrainian cities were converted, while in. Kiev 30 small Jewish congregations were ordered to ,move from the government-owned buildings that they occupied. These houses are to , be remodelled into workers' dwellings. The Central Executive Committee of Ukraine, the final authority on synagogue' convertions, now* has before it for decision,, resolutions regarding petitions for the convertions of several| dozen synagogues in differen Ukrainian townships.

By the terms of the Deed and an Escrow Agreement we will keep the earnings for six and one-half (6%) years or less, plus a few months for taxes in case the tolls do not pay the value out sooner. ' At that time if there be no competing bridge, and no condemnation of our bridge, the Douglas Street Bridge will be given to the public. The Deed was given to six trustees Monday, January 13. The trustees are authorized to deliver the bridge to the public when the conditions of the Deed and the Escrow Agreement are satisfied. The time started October 31,1929. If the bridge tolls-pay out the valut, $4,155,296, plus maintenance, operation, taxes and interest sooner than April 30i 1936, the bridge will become the property of the cities at that time. Every dollar received will be applied to the debts of the two companies. ^ There need be no taxes, no bonds or other expense to the cities. This plan makes unnecessary an election for the purchase of our bridge. Our statement to the mayors of Omaha and Council Bluffs explaining the transaction in detail is printed in this advertisement. Anyone wishing to study the Escrow Agreement and the Deed may do so by coming to our office. '

To the Mayor sad City Council of Council Bluffs. Gentlemen: Acting upon authority conferred upon us by the stockholders and directors of the Omaha A Council Bluffs Railway&, Bridge Company and by the stockholders and directors of the Omaha & Council Bloffs Street Railway Company, we have today placed in the hands of a Board of Six Trustees a Deed to the Douglas Street Bridge and approaches. This Deed conveys the Douglas Street Bridge and approaches to the Trustees for the Cities of Omaha, Nebraska, and ConndJ Bluffs* Iowa. The title will be delivered to the Cities in six and one-half (6%) years or less, from October 31, 1929, possibly plus a few months for collection of taxes. Nearly three (3) months of this time has passed.
:
nils north or sooth of the Dswglsi Street Bridge; this means Oat a bridge ia South Omaha or a bridg* in Florence would have no bearing upon this transaction. 2. That there be no condemnation proceedings instituted against our bridge.
Since the Deed is duly signed and exsestsd, and in the hands of the Trustees for delivery, we have decided to forego the expense at tat election either at the present time or at say other time. The money, which an election wwtdd cost, u needed in the operation of the Street Railway lines. This transaction makes stnnecessary any election for the purpose of acquiring- the Douglas Street Bridge. If oar proposal were submitted te the voters and? rejected by them, the arrangement will •till stand. Such action would not change tb* condition in our Deed and Escrow Agreement. The bridge will belong to the Cities at ta* expiration of the time set forth, or prior to that time if paid out sooner, subject to the conditions. One election or several elections for the purchase of our bridge would not change the situation.
The Trustees are: F. H. Davis, President of the First National Bank of Omaha; J. G. Wadsworth, Vke-President of the City National Bank of Council Bluffs;
This action of oars todsy, we believe, j ; takes the question of purchase of oar eridg* oat of politics. We believe that is good not only for as but for the two Cities. For several year* the question of whether or not our bridge shottM be-purchased has caused more or less constant turmoil in the civic &n<i political life of Omaha. It is not good for a business to be in polities and we do not believe it is good for -a city to have its political life constantly involved with a problem of private business, eycai though that private business be a public otiltty.
W. Dale dark, President of the Omaha National Bank of Omaha; B. A. Gronstal, Vice-President of the Council Bluffs Savings Bank of Council Bluffs; „< Ford E. Hovey, President of the Stock Yards National Bank, and . E. H. Lougee, Investment Banker of Council Bluffs.
For financial and business reasons, it is with regret that we give tip the Dosglas Steesi Bridge. After many years of losing money, a*« more years of just "breaking even," it finally developed into a splendid revenue producer. As such, it has been an invaluable aid te th« Street Railway Systems of both Cities. Without revenues from the bridge during the last few years, the Omaha & CoRZteil Bta£* Street Railway Company would have gone int© receivership or charged higher fsres.
This Deed has been duly signed and executed by the Omaha & Council Bluffs Railway & Bridge Company and by the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Railway Company. The Trustees are authorized, and hare agreed, to deliver the title to the two Cities on the day that the terras set forth in the Deed and the Escrow Agreement shall have been satisfied. Under the terms of the Deed and of the Escrow Agreement, the two Cities may at any time shorten the period of time that we will continue to operate the bridge by accepting it and thereby relieving as of the taxes. The terms and conditions set forth in the Deed require no action of any kind by the two Cities other than acceptance of the bridge property. No money will be required. They may make it a free bridge, they may continue l o charge tolls for bridge maintenance, or for the building «f other bridges, or for such other public improvements they may desire to make, or for the reduction of taxes, or for any other municipal purposes. We will no longer own the bridge. We reserve the right to continue the operation of our street cars over the bridge, and agree to pay our proper share of the maintenance. In the event the Cities continue to charge tolls for maintenance, we agree that the Cities may, in a irdance with the Escrow Agreement, levy tu.,3 on street car riders crossing the bridge during- the period for which tolls are charged for maintenance. Under the terms of the agreement, the bridge will become the property of the two Cities m six and one-half <6Mi) years from October SI, 1929, possible plus such additional time as may be required for us to collect, in tolls the amount in taxes in connection with the bridge that we will be required to pay from October 31, 1929, toJ^pril 30, 1936. In case we receive in net revenues from the tolls, the value of the bridge, property, $4,155,296. (plus the taxes, until the Cities take title), in less time than six and onehalf <6H) years from October 31, 1929, the title to the bridge will be deliverable by the Trustees at that time. Every dollar of the money received will be applied to the debts of the two companies.
If we could beep the Douglas Street Biwit* without competition, the Street Railway Systsw of bow Cities would be greatly benefited. W* do not believe that the Douglas Street Bridge with its low rate of tolls has ever at any tiros been a hindrance to the progress of Omaha and Council Bluffs. Others, however, honestly disagree with os. When the bridge was originally built a public celebration was held sad it was hailed as a boom of prosperity t* &e two €M«s. We believe the bridge hate bees of isestimsbl* value to Omaha and Council Bluffs. Tfc» m a who built it rendered a distinct service te bat* Cities. In recent years, however, a large niBiabsr •£ people have been orging that our brage b« made toll free, or that * competing mm-toil bridge be bnilt. Therefore, because of threats id competition, and threats of condemnation, and because of the constant agitation against the Street RaOway Company on account of its connection with ths bridge, we have decided to give it op even though it will be a great financial loss to the Street Railway System. The bridge and its business are well worth what we are asking for it, $4,155,296. Based « • Hs earning power it is worth at least ?6,©0©,M0, and a private individual wosM not sell it for less. We have no hesitancy In saying that w« believe we have given the tw© Cities the easiest, the quickest and the most inexpensive method or obtaining a non-to1* bridge.
