/ realize the necessity Of pro-
gress reports, and after consulting
with the laboratory people. 1t has
been agreed that we could con-
sistently report the result Of our
investigations UP to the present
time about as follows:
That while the water Is not
wholly satisfactory, and it is
necessary to continue inyestiga-
ton until a more perfect scheme
Of treatment is determined, yet
the results of the analysis up to
the present time indicate that the
water Is not. a menace to the
health Of the people of Keokuk,
nor that any epidemic is immi-
nent.
That while some Of the reports
from the laboratory indicate the
water as unsatisfactory at such
periods, yet the laboratory peo-
pie feel warranted in saying that
they do not consider the water
unsafe for domestic use.
viii Always Need Watching.
In other words, the protective
measures now taken are apparent
" working satisfactorily and are
promoting an improvement in the
condition of the water which i'm.
provement should continue until
all possibility Of danger is elm
mated.
The foregoing statements are
intended to relieve any anxiety
on the part of your citizens, ana
from the findings you should be
warranted in assuring the citizens
that no danger is imminent, but
that since a river water, always
variable in content, is being reat-
ed for domestic use, constant
vigilance must be maintained in
this case.
am interested in knowing
whether the water company has
completed the installation of the
testing laboratory, and am writ
ing Mr.. Scanland for informa-
ton.
This letter from the state board o
ealth was in response to a reques

statement issued today says German
counter proposals on the peace treaty
would be presented at the beginning
