ing that he is opposed to any insur-

done to make the department more eff
ficient.
II think one of the best courses this

gible as the characters on a Chinese

Price Doubted ELL.
Senator Price stated that he would
be i'll favor of the biIr if he could be
assured it served a real purpose and
would benefit the policyholders. How
ever, he frankly admitted that he
could not see any benefits that would
be derived from it and that he had
serious doubts about it being a meas
ure that would benefit the poIicyhold-
ers, because in his long experience in
the senate never had he seen an in
surance measure intended to benefit
poIicyhoIders so thru with SO little OPP

Price insisted that the matter should
be gone into more carefully and made
a motion that it be alloWed~to remain

when it could be taken up under a
special order. This was agreed to by
Carroll and the motion carried.

NEW WORRY FOR P. u. C.
Schoch Would Put Bonding and Casu-
atty Companies Under Commission.

atty Companies Under Commission.
The Kansas public utilities commits
sion will have some new. problems to
work with if a bill introduced in the
senate today by Schoch of Shawnee is
enacted into law. The bill provides
ty, fidelity and indemnity insurance
corupa MES under the supervision of
the public utilities commission with
power to revoke licenses and to regu-
late rates and premiums.
At the present time these companies
are required to make annual reports
to the state insurance department. but
there is no authority to regulate their
rates or to otherwise supervise their
activities. The Schoch bill would re-
quire that every company be required
to get a certificate from the =. u. c.
before doing business, that it make
annual reports and that in cases
where rates, charges and premiums
are shown to be excessive the utilities
commission may arbitrarily reduce
them. t-s
AItho Schoch is still absent from
his seat a bill was introduced by him
today thru Senator Carroll providing
for a 100000 appropriation for the
Kansas free fair of Topeka. The
measure provides that $4,000 be APP
propriated for the year 1920 and SIS
900 for 1921.
SawmiI1s, tractor engines and other
heavy machinery will be forced to run
on planks when they use the public
highways if a bill introduced by
Paulen is passed.

NEWLAND DOESN'T KNOW
Water Department Has No Idea as to
Source of Impurities.

Water Department Has No Idea as to
Source of Impurities.
According to Commissioner Frank
= Newland, the members of the water
department have no explanation to of
fer as to the possible source of i'm
purity of the city water supply.
Andy Veatch, state sanitary expert,
from Lawrence visited the city bac-
THEOLOGICAL department this morning
to inspect the results obtained by Mrs
Gertrude Ashby, city bacteriologist
ir her tests of the city water. Veatch
does not intend to make any tests him
self, relying entirely on the efficiency
of the archaeological department in
eSta blishing the presence of whatever
bacteria may be found in the water.
He expresses no opinion on conditions
in his brief visit at the office this
morning. Tomorrow he will be in To-
peka again to continue his work at
the plant where it will be hiss en-
d eavor to locate, if possible. the source
of contamination. More recent tests
have proved the water to be in slightly
better condition.
According to DR.. H. L. Clark, city
health officer, nothing is known nor
has any opinion been expressed as to
The possible source of impurity. He
said that it might be due to seepa ge
into the river near the plant or that it
might be from a broken pipe in or
near the river.
