PRAISE FOR VERDE
WATER SYSTEM IS
GIVEN BY EXPERT

Very high praise for the engineer
ing features and the general deslr-
ability of the Verde water system
was contained in a telegram received
by City Manager V. A. Thompson
yesterday from A. La Prest recog
nized as an international authority
on water distribution. La Prest is
engineer for the Wallace & Tiernan
company, whose chlorinator has just
been put into operation at the point
of intake of the Verde wateer supply
system.
Engineer La Prest supervised the
installation of similar sterilizing
plants for the United States govern
ment at Honolulu and for the gov
ernmeut of New Zealand ct their
principal points of water supply, and
is now enroute to China, where he
win make installations of chlorinators
for the new Chinese republic
Following is the telegram Of en-
dorsement:
"The Verde river project of the city
OF Phoenix stands as a monument
of good engineering design and
tribute to your wonderful organiza
ton. 1t is a most safe ground water
supply bacteriologically. Since all
ground waters are subject to pollu-
ton. you have most wisely provided
that added factor of safety necessary
and which all public officials should
take to safeguard the health of their
water users The application of
minute quantities of liquid chlorine
TO Your water absolutely eliminates
danger Of water borne diseases from
Phoenix. Verde river water. besides
being better chemically than your
present supply, is also now sterile.

HOUSE TO DEBATE
BONUS TOMORROW
Conference Report on Bill
Probably Will Be Followed
by Quick Action.
SHARP TALK IN SENATE
McCumber Fails to Get Smoot

ommendation.

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., Sept. IL
The conference report on the bonus
bill providing for a IS, 900. 900 raid on
the Treasury for the ex-service men
will be reported to the House tomorrow
and will be taken up b. that body for
discussion on Thursday. advocates of
the measure announced to-day.
Chairman Fordney of the Ways and
Means Committee expressed the belief
that the House soon will dispose of the
bill and will give it's approval to the
conference report which eliminates the
Senate anlendments-the $3.50. 000.O c0 re-
clamation project and the plan to
finance the bill by the use of any
interest received on the foreign loan.
Chairman McCumber of the Senate
Finance Committee made futile effort
to-day to have Senator Smoot (Utah)
sign the report Of the conferees. The
Utah Senator takes the position that
any bonus bill to be enacted at this time
should be financed by a sales tax--in
keeping with a suggestion made on the
subject some time ago by President Har-
ding. Since then the President has not
changed his position on the question and
the President on the bonus ISSUE
The bonus question flared up in the
Senate to-day and led to an animated
exchange of words between Senator'S
Moses On. HI. and Hefin (Ala.). SEN
ator Harrison (Miss.) also took occa-
sion to score the conferees for the ell
mination of the McNary reclamation
project from the bill.
Senator Helm started the fireworks
by charging that Senator Moses double
crossed the ex-service men in his
state by promising them he was for
bonus until after they had voted for
him at the election. then he changed
front on the proposition and voted
against the adjusted compensation BILL
Mr.. Moses became annoyed over the
accusation of double dealing and denied
enphatically that he had not acted
equarely on the bonus issue with all
parties concerned. He said that in way
he had been committed to a bonus for
the ex-service men but he could not see
his way clear to vote for one at this
time and added:
when we may do 1t with justice
to the country / am willing to meet the
issue"
Senator Heflin said he was "just re-
errlng to facts" as he understood them.
After Senator Helm had continued
his remarks. Senator Moses broke IN
again to observe: III the Senator Will
yield to me further l would like TO say
that ! once read in the Congressional
Record of a Senator who was described
in another place as having the bravest
mouth in the country. think ! can

UNTERMYER TURNS
TO OPPOSE LEAGUE
Back From Europe Converted
to Belief That Treaty Was
Crazy Quilt
SEES CIVILIZATION FAIL
Calls Upon United States to
Go to the Rescue With
Financial Aid.

The urgent need for America TO assist
Europe to get her feet financially was
urged by Samuel Untermyer, who ar
rived yesterday on the Majestic, after
several months abroad. He gave out a
statement which he had prepared and
was not interviewed because of the seri-
Gus illness of his wife. who was carried
from the ship and taken at once to Grey
stone
The conditions abroad according to
Mr. Untermyer. are headed toward a
downfall of civilization which even
financial aid may not be able to stop
unless 1t Is given at once. Entire popu-
lations of cities are in rags and starv-
ing, he said, and revolution and oblitera-
ton will come upon whole nations ,un-
less the stronger countries help. Millions
more than were killed by the war will
perish unless this aid Is Forthcoming, he
said.
I'VE should seize upon the oppor-
tunity to help, as the supreme oppor-
tunity for human SERVICE" Mr.. Inter
myer said. "and one which will never
recur, rather than regard 1t as an un-
welcome burden. America would be
loved and blessed by all nations for all
time to come. The scales have fallen
from our eyes and we see what pawns
we were in the sordid game of Euro
pean politics, and our impulse Is to get
as far away from the whole wretched
business as possible. 1t would be un-
pardonable and treacherous for US to do
that"
Mr.. Untermyer suggests that the ac-
crued and accruing interest Of the Brit
ish debt to US for the next three years
be devoted TO the relief or the stricken
nations while we are putting & in mo-
tion machinery to aid those nations in
rehabilitating themselves.
ANY one who continues to pirate about
self-determination, plebiscites and other
cant deserves to be stoned" he con-
tinued, and he assailed the Versailles
treaty as a crazy quilt peace. unsup-
ported by glimmer of Justice
These peace treaties represent the
most laundering mixup in the history of
diplomacy" he added. land nowhere do
they offer a loophole to the victims or
a release from their colossal blunders
These new vandal republics pay no more
attention to the treaties than the peace
makers paid to the fourteen points on
the faith of which. the pledged word of
the United States, the Central Powers
laid down their arms. The futility and
Importance of the League of Nations
becomes more apparent day by day L.
too. was an enthusiastic champion OF
the league, and would still be IL 1t were
intended to protect ana perpetuate
just peace"
The statement closed with a shot at
Attorney-General Daugherty. who, Mr..
Untermyer stated. has shown his sub
servience to the Morgan and their allied
financial interests" as clearly Demon
strated" in the General Electric case
He took Mr. Daugherty to task for not
having gone ahead with the prosecution
of that and other antitrust cases after
the Lockwood committee had pointed
the way and handed the prepared evil
dence to him on silver platter.
