aqueduct has been pronounced one of
the worlds major engineering feats.
1t is in its way a victory memorial.
It was begun in 1914 and built in the
four years of war. Only four cities in
the world have gone further for their
water.
The aqueduct brings $4,000, 900 gal
Ions every twenty-four hours from

the Woods. the famous haunt of
sportsmen, southeast Of Winnipeg.
Shoal lake has an area Of 107 square
an area of 1900 square miles. The
lakes are 800 feet above the level of
the city and the flow of water is sus-
tainedi by gravity.

nothing of the reduction in the yearly
bills for soaps and laundry work.
To build the a%queduct, the city con-
structed it's own standard-gauge rail-
way and a telegraph line. The road
is 10 miles long and its locomotives
and 115 cars are valued at $1,439,522.
Several thriving towns sprang up
along the steel and farmers began to
settle in the country which was be-
fore a wilderness. The road will now
be maintained in regular operation.
The city also operated it's w gravel

the Observation-Disclosures alliance,

AND COLLECTIVE DEALING
Secretary Wilson Bars
Foe at Labor Meeting

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Un-
der Secretary of Labor Will
sons Interpretation of the treaty,
voting in the forthcoming inter-
national labor conference will be
confined to delegates represent
ing only the nations mentioned
in the annex of the League of
Nations covenant, it was declared
in a statement by the Secretary
to-day. This Interpretation
would bar German and Austrian
delegates from voting.
The Secretary's Interpretation,
which holds that the United
States in convening and organiz-
ing the conference has assumed
certain obligations which it can
not permit even the Supreme
Council to abrogate, is in direct
conflict with the Supreme Coun-
ellis own ruling.
AS a solution of the difficulty,
Secretary Wilson suggests that
an informal conference be called
for discussion of subjects by all
delegates, provided final determi-
nation was left to the members
proper.
