laws. to show cause Monday. july 2s

THIRTY MILLION FACE
WATER DISEASE MENACE

ing with water-borne diseases, for
the demands made on municipal
water systems are then so great that
usually every available source Of
water has to be utilized. In very few
places in the United States have large
cities a water supply which does not
need to be artificially purified before
it is safe for drinking purposes. the
usual method being mechanical fill
tration with alum and disinfection
with chlorine.
with these chemicals practically
unobtainable, due to the railroad sit
uation, it may soon become impos-
sible to furnish pure water in some
of the largest American cities. Dur
ing the last ten years the publication
of drinking water with alum and
chlorine has been the greatest single
factor in the control of typhoid fever
among the civilian population. Un-
less the railroads find it possible i'm
mediately to transport the necessary
materials to the cities the most Sc
rious consequences in the form of epi-
denies of typhoid fever are to be
apprehended."
District officials pointed out today
that the water supply of Washington
is in no danger of becoming disease
infected. There are several tons of
chemicals on hand here. These chemi-
Gals. it was said, are only used when
the Potomac river water IL muddy.
