WORK BEGUN ON
PLAN To REVIVE
j. 6. BUSINESS
Chief Cause of Depression is
the Lack of Information
Available, Say Economic
Experts.
tBy The Associnte6 press.)

Washington, Oct. 5.-Prelimin-
airy work On a permanent policy
for recognizing of employment
throughout the country, involving
the revival of the nations business
and commerce as begun today
by the manufacturers committee
of the national conference on UNI
employment.
Discussions were said to have
been limited to t. e suggestions for
the Sterilization of business adj
vanced by the economic advisory
committee of the conference with
particular attention paid to the
problem of effecting commercial
revival of permanence without a
consequent recession in the move
ment.
eve are of the opinion" the
economic experts declared, that
one of the chief causes of industrial
depression s to be found in the
lack of information available to
business men as to certain essential
facts connected with their general
lines of business. The far sighted
business man who desires to fore
cast the future and guide his action
accordingly is often compelled to
rely upon pure guesses or arbitrary
estimates. Were he to be provided
with actual facts he would often
act worry d.ffe emily from what lie
now does. Sterilization of pusi-
ness and the avoidance Of recurring
industrial depressio. S and crisis
are in no small measure dependent
upon a more complete knowledge
Of the factors affecting the business
situation"
The committee is to meet again
tomorrow.

WATER IMPURE
AGAIN.; It MUST
ALL BE BOILED

City water showed impurities ir
the tests yesterday and must be
boiled before being used for drink
ing purposes, according to the
health department.
Bacteria showed in nearly all oil
the samples" DIR. j. F. Docherty
stated yesterday. "And the water
should be purified before being
used. Typhoid fever might result
II this precaution is not taken"
The last test showed the water
almost pure and officials were
hopeful that yesterdays test would
show it entirely free from contain
ination. The health department
was unable to state yesterday
where the new impurity had come
from.
In spite of the fact that the
water during the past few weeks
has carried slight impurities which
might have caused typhoid cpl
demic, no cases have been reported.
This is probably due to the fact
that the greater part of the people
have boiled the water before using
1t and also to the fact that the
contamination has only been in
small proportions.

GODOWskY .GAVE:
PUBL |C C0NGER 1T
At ACE Of NINE

Leopold Godowsky, the Super
man among pianists," as he has
often been called. was born in the
ancient town of wilma, in the Lith-
uanian province of Russian Poland,
on February 10. 1870. From early
childhood he showed an extraordi-
nary aptitude for music, making
his first public appearance at the
age Of 9 at a concert in his native
town. Mr.. Godowsky appears here
in concert October 10.
Four years later found the youth
enrolled at the Berlin -Hochschule
but only for a snort period. as even
at that age Leopold Godowsky had
definite ideas about piano teaching
which were not in sympathy with
the dull and conventional methods
in vogue at tie Hochschule.
At the age Of IA, In 1884, the
young pianist left for America
where he toured in concerts with
the singers, Clara Louise Kellogg
and Emma Thursby and subse-
quently with the violinist Divide
Musin. In 1885 he returned 10
Europe to fulfill his greatest am
bition that of becoming student
under List at Weimar.
This ambition was never realiz-
ed. however, as upon his arrival in
Europe he learnedSthat the famous
composer. pianist and pedagogue
had passed away. His disappoint-
ment was somewhat ameliorated
less than year later, by an intro
duction to Saint Saens. who, after
hearing the boy play several of his
own compositions Immediately
manifested the most enthusiastic
interest in Godowsky.
But the restless nature and in
cessant activities OF Saint Saens
made continuous study with him
impossible, so in the end Godow-
sky became practically his own
teacher. That he was his very best
instructor time and his great repu-
tation have proven,
