Officials Resent Action.

Officials of the department today made
no effort to conceal the fact that they
resented the inclusion of this item in the
deficiency bill, In view of the fact that
the department had not been given a
chance to be heard in the matter. and
the additional reason that whatever eX-
cess revenues may be available are de-
sired for important betterments to the
service.
Notwithstanding Congress has directed
that the water department revenues shall
be used in maintaining the aQueduct, re-
ceipts recently indicated that there would
be an excess fund of about $50, 900. To-
day it was stated that the excess might
reach 100000.
Thia assures sufficient fund for
meeting the aqueduct $4,000 deficiency,
but department officials had counted on
asking Congress for authority to eX-
pend this amount on extensions and
improvements. 1t is not unlikely that
they will press such claim when the
deficiency bill reaches the Senate

Taxpapeys Pay for Upkeep.

District taxpayers, who use only 45
per cent of the water consumed In the
District, the other 55 per cent being
used by the District and federal gov
ernments. pay for the entire upleep of
the service.
Several plans for equalizing the bur-
den as between the District and federal
considerd. but the one most likely of
being adopted by the Commissioners, 1t
IS believed. contemplates a recon-
mendation to Congress that 1t reduce
water plant investment from TN to 8
ger cent per annum. The difference, it
suggested. could be made up in the
'orm Of an appropriation which could

,aueduct. This would increase the

1t has been supposed. because Of the

news of the disclosures was suppressed

Foresee Liberal Victory.

In Swedish circles in London the view
is expressed that the revelations come
just in time to insure a big victory for
the liberal socialist bloc in the Swedish
elections, which are now under way,
and which Will continue until Septem-
ber FL This should be followed by the
fall of the present conservative govern
ment as soon as parliament reasseYnbles
in January and it's replacement by
cabinet headed by Hjalmar Branting,
the socialist leader.
Although, under Swedish law. the
government does not necessarily fall
except on an adverse vote by both
houses-and the upper house will con-
tinue conservative owing to the pc
culiar method of its election-there
has been tacit agreement between the

Appropriation, Se25,oOo.

Congress, in the current act, appro-
priated approximately s625,00O for the
water department, including the aque-
duct, the act limiting the amount that
may be spent on extensions The most
recent estimates are that the water de-
partment revenues this year VIII
amount to S725,O Unless authority
were given for spending the excess
amount on improvements or its utiliza-
ton were authorized in some other way
the money would have to be turned into
the fedora Treasury.
The anticipated earnings OF the de
partment this year are not held TO be
an argume for a reduction in rates
On the contrary, the amount OF money
that Congress has diverted from the
earnings to maintain the aqueduct
should be spent on extensions, it is
claimed. An official of the department
today said that the service is suffer.
ing by reason of the situation created
by existing legislation. and that unless
a change is made the development OF
the water service system soon will fal
behind that of the city.
The water service plant is estimated
10 have value Of $4,000, 900. o,
which s7,O00.000 is owned by thu
United States. The federal government
pays nothing for water. but If 1t pait
the same rates assessed against tax
payers It's water bill would amount t.
$525 900 per annum. According to thes,
figures, 1t is receiving something like
