Comparatively speaking. the coun-
try spends three times as much for
music as 1t costs to operate tho army
and navy, and nearly three times tho
amount Of postal receipts.
What have you spent? Have you
an instrument in your home?

ter the beginning of June. however. an
unusual number OF cases were report
ed from various sections OF the city.
Indicating. according to the CHIEF
water supply about the middle OF
May.
An examination of conditions at the
settling basins by DR.. Levy disclosed
tho fact that one of the basins used
for coagulatIng water had been clean
ed about the middle OF May and thrown
out of active commission for some
time. During the cleansing. all the
water was sent through the other
coagulating basin for precipitation.
throwing more work on tho second
basin than could be accomplished. u
Slight muddiness OF the water in the
city MIGRANTS resulting.
Report Sustains Levy.
An examination OF the chemical
analysis OF the settling basin water
appears TO substantiate DIR. Levy's
theory that the water supply was con
taminated during the time necessary
for cleansing the coagulating basin.
Until May, the chemical analysis
showed n negligible percentage OF
positive tests, indicating the presence
OF colon bacilli. but about the time
one OF the basins was cleaned, n
greater number OF the tests became
positive. fl1teen per cent OF the colon
bacili tests for May were positive.
So far. the tests fer June have been
positive to the extent OF only per
cent. which. according to DR.. Whit
field and other chemists. Is about nor
NAL for this season OF the year.
The contention of the Administra-
tive Board is that even II there had
been contamination while the basin
was being cleaned. and this is denied.
the contamination is now removed
and the addition OF hypochlorite OF
lime to the city water would only be
a useless injection OF chemicals into
the drinking supply. DIR. Levy re-
plies that the installation of n harm
less hypochlorite plant would be n
precautionary measure. which would
positively prevent the presence or
typhoid germs in tho water. and would
not irJure the water for drinking
purposes.

authorization from the war department

with the war departments purpose to
remove all possible causes Of friction
between the Americans and Mexicans,
especially in the neighbOrhood OF No

ter Of a fight between the cOntending
Mexican factions.
The initial step in the policy was
taken when Gen. Bliss was instructed
to withdraw the American border pa
troll far enough from the line to keep
them out Of sight of the Mexican
guards on the south side.
Today's orders by the war depart
ment that United States troops refrain
from answering any fire from the Mex
lean side has been put to a severe test
