and taxpayer.

Mayor Says Water Plant Improvement
Will Be No Temporary Affair.

Rumors, reports. limitations and
assertions that there are several diff
ferent ideas as to just how the water
resources of the city should be ex-
tended were put "at rest" today when
Mayor ]. E. House again announced
that the supply will be made perma-
nent by opening new well fields and
tunneling the Kaw river. The new
wells will be on the north side.
Topeka" said Mayor House, has
been asleep for the last six or seven
years on this matter Now we are
going ahead and get a permanent and
adequate supply. This will be done in
a buSinesSlike way, regardless of the
amount of money it takes to do it,
Mayor House said that Wyncoo2
Kiersted, the water plant expert, will
only de1 ote two or three days of his
personal time to the work and only
for that time will he be paid the $50
a day as mentioned in the letter read
before the commission Monday. At
other times an assistant of Kiersted's,
whose per diem will be much smaller,
will be personally in charge of the
preliminary work.

Porter Thinks Schools Will Not Have

Immediate need of closing Topeka
