SUPPLY OF
WATER FOR
CITY GOOD
Reports that Impurities Abound
Groundless, is Belief of Off
cials; Analysis Shows Safe
for Domestic Use,

Reports of bad city water condi-
tions in Chickasha yesterday caused
Frank Scrimager, water commission
er, to start a thorough investigation
of conditions but the reports are
groundless Mr.. Scrimager believes
Anonymous posters hanging in places
about the RocR Island shops started
the investigation.
Though samples of city water sent
to the state health department only
short time ago were declared good
after thorough analysis conducted
by chemists and bacteriologists, wa
ter officials of the city have under
taken to determine the exact condi-
tion of drinking water here follow
ing questions that arose early
Wednesday. DR.. e. l.. Dawson, city
health officer, and Dr. S. O. Marrs,
county physician have also taken
some steps to run down bad water
stories. The purity of city water at
this time is up to the standard, it is
thought.
A bottle of water from the city
mains sent to Oklahoma health of
ficers several months ago contained
some bacteria an analysis showed.
AT that time the city was advised to
use more chlorine lime in the puri-
flying process. After this was com
piled with the next tests found the
samples good.
1--WE believe there is no cause for
worry on the part Of city water con
sumers though a complete investiga-
ton of rumors will be made" the
city water head said late Wednesday

Fifteen husky negroes answered

They range all the way from hotel

Applications for Jobs Roll in
Laborers by Score Report to
Headquarters Here; Co.
operation Asked.
BROOM CORN WORKERS
FLOCKING TO DISTRICT
More Men than Jobs; Stream
Must be Stopped, says State
Office; Harvest Held up
By Weather.

With laborers arriving in Chickasha
on every train depending on being
furnished with work, the Federal
state employment agency here found
difficulty today in furnishing. assign
ments to applicants and men are
signed up by the score on waiting
lists, j. d. Jones, junior manager in
charge of the office announced this
morning The bureau must have the
cooperation of local business houses
in furnishing jobs for men who come
here, the office says.
Applicants flocked by the scores
to the employment headquarters yes
terday afternoon and today until
dozens were on hand for every place
where one could be used. Broom
corn hands, many OF there from
Texas and other states, have come
here and are waiting developments in
the Lindsay fields wh6re harvesting
had been tied up on account Of the
continued drowth. All applicants on
hand can be put to work as soon as
broom corn cutting starts but until
that time they must remain in Chick
asha and will be given employment
as rapidly as possible, officials state.
Charles Day, manager of the local
office, is still in Lindsay in the in
terest Of federalstate employment
bureau. But 500 men are idle around
Lindsay now, he wired yesterday, and
the stream must be stopped. The
labor clearing house at Oklahoma
City issued orders Wednesday to
curb the rush to Garvin county until
harvesting has begun. Frank Feger,
special agent on the employment
staff, is in Duncan today arranging
for any kind Of farm work available
and will be able to handle a part
of the excess labor there in a short
time, Mr.. Jones expects
So1he idea of the volume Of work
which the employment bureau here
is to handle may be CLEANED from
the fact that the Chickasha office
is distribution headquarters for four
teen counties of Oklahoma, covering
the entire southwestern quarter of
the state. Only one other labor off
ice is located in the district that
being a temporary branch at Lawton.
Mr. Day will be busy for the next
few weeks organizing the territory
"What we need most now is the
cooperation of employers of Chick
asha to relieve the temporary rush
of men to the office before the dis
trict has been well organized" said
Mr.. Jones this morning. 1--WE have
enlisted the assistance of the Grady
county farm bureau and other or
ganizations here and everyone seems
enthusiastic to help the movement
We propose a systematic handling
teh labor problem and the Job VII
require the help of everyone"

attorney and sheriff to clean up the
city, in accordance with the require
ments of the military authorities at
Fort Sill, within five days or resign

unanimously adopted by a rising
vote, the officers in question voting
for it.
1t was voted that committee of

ing out the necessity for prompt and
vigorous action in the interest of
the institution which he represents.
q say that the reports that have
lgone out are reproach and Sian
der on every home in tho city" he
declared. 81 take the statement of
the U. S. authorities concerning con
ditions in Chickasha and i hold oar
officers responsible for these condi-
y hons. There is no excuse for such
conditions in a town this size. If
our officers can't enforce the law
they should have the manhood to get
out"
Rev. VIM Dcnham insisted that
the cleanup movement should so to
the bottom of the matter. Il say that
what is needed is cleanup in the
city administration" he declared.
Mayor Coffman was called upor

er he could comply with the require
ments of the army authorities, the
mayor said he had done all he could
but he could clean up the town with
the :assistance of the citizens.
Sheriff Bailey said he had done
all he could but added that he could
clean up the town if the citizens
would help him.
Ben r. Johnson, in suggesting that
a committee be appointed to work
with the officers, declared, with
the world torn by war, we cannot
afford to sacrifice the morals of the
nation for anything we might gain
The motion that officers enforce
the law or resign was offered by J,
u. Carmichael who took occasion to
vigorously refute the suggestion that
any considerable part of the vice
complained of was found among
girls who live in their own homes
won can court on Ahe fingers Of one
hand all such cases." he declared
1T is gross SANDER of the good
people of the city to make any such
statement
1t was suggested that if the city
and county are unable to furnish
funds for detention camp, the cit
liens viii contribute the same. Tenn
porary arrangements for this purpose
are to be made at once.
Proceedings in regard to the vice
situation in Chlckasha and the ban
placed on the city by the military
authorities at Fort Sill took an un-
expected turn at conference Of
citizens called by the Council of De-
fense late yesterday afternoon. The
conference was called for some pre-
liminary planning for mass meet
ing which it was originally proposed
to hold this evening. Before the
meeting adjourned, however, Chief
of Police Phillips appeared and was
invited to make a statement, follow
ing which it was decided to continue
the investigation, without waiting
for the intended mass meeting. After
Mr.. Phillips had concluded his state
ment, County Attorney Simpson was

journment be taken until 8 o'clock
