WHO OWNS THE UBKRTT
BUILDING?
I will tell you who owns the
Liberty building Mr. A. W. Pipes,
formerly ot Salmon City, Idaho,
owns It. - .
"In March 1927, Mr. A. W.
Pipes paid over to Anderson and
Bardwcll, owners ot the building,
as first payment. J.UOO In hard
cold cash. There was a 30,0OU
seven per cent first mortgage due
to the Pacific Mutual Life Insur
ance company, which Mr. Pipes as-
sumed, and which Is now P".u
down to J'JO.OOO. Ho gave An
derson and Ilardwell a second
mortgage for 18,000 at six and
ono-half per cent, which a year
ago was reduced to 11.000, and
two weeks ago Mr. Pipes notified
us that in thirty days he would
be prepared to tako up tins ".

Furthermore. Mr. Pipes since
March 1827 has always paid
nromptly when due all of the
taxes on this property, and not
