MCCARL MAKES RULING
If Water of Rangoon Good Enough for a93,000. Natives, It's Good Enough for L. $. Consul

Washington, Aug. IS. (Pl-If the water of Rangoon is good enough for the 293,000 native Burmese. it's good enough for the American vice. consul there, in the severly economic opinion of Comptroller General McCarl.
 Keyne V. Graum, the vice. consul at Rangoon, included an item of $11,2O for special drinking water in his expense account and, by way of explanation, submitted a report by the city health officer on the muni- cipal water supply. This report, however, merely set forth that the water contained too many micro organisms without disclosing the presence of noxious germs, and the comptroller general disapproved the expenditure on the ground that the purchase of special water had been based merely on apprehension of cholera, dysentery and other diseases and not upon immediate necessity.
 In another ruling, he held that the cost of laundering uniforms worn by the consular and diplomatic representatives abroad was properly chargeable to the government.

OIL CONSERVATION IS
 FAST BECOMING REALITY
Survey by Government Agent h. dicates New Methods Are
 Proving Effective.

Washington, Aug. IS R1A five weeks inspection of mineral leas- ing activities on government lands in the west has convinced Director Smith of the Geological Survey that practical conservation is win ming out and industrial leaders are utilizing new methods in the de- velopment of the country's natural resources.
 In q special report to Secretary Work, covering his observations of coal mining operations in Montana and Wyoming and oil operations in Montana and California, he said that what impressed him most was the more respective attitude of the industrial leaders toward new ideas and new ways of doing things"
 Tn academic circles this is called the research attitude" he added, but in the field it is more the de- termined effort to lower costs. The adoption fo loading machinery is cutting down the cost of coal to unexpected levels, the expansion of power systems is likewise lower ing the cost of lecetricity and broadening the fiedls of it's useful ness, and the executives who con- trol the destinies of the larger oil companies, are giving. more en- couraging support toS their en- gineering staffs and all this means to me that practical con- servation is winning out in the use of all the great stores of natural resources in the western countries"
 Director Smith, at the outset of his report, said that anyone who feels concern about the present status of the oil industry can find in certain oil fields abundant cause of viewing with alarm and in others gratifying reasons for an optimistic outlook"

Curtiss, frontage 270 feet, and c. E. Perkins with frontage of 300 feet. MT. Johnson also informed the council that Mrs. Emma Norton, who has frontage of 120 feet on the avenue in ques- ton. was in favor of the installation of sewer facilities, provided it was not essential that she connect up with same at the present time
 Those opposing the proposed ar engagement were Herbert A. Stewart, with a frontage of $50 feet; Irene H. Bartlett, 60 feet; Joseph Fiorentino, 285 feet; Cornelia Palmer. 375 feet, and Frank Wright, 1O7 feet.
 Those in favor of the improve ments represented 95O feet frontage, whole those opposed own land on Terryville avenue with a total front age of LIT feet.
 Earl Johnson spoke at some length in favor of the proposed sewer, intimating that conditions at the present time were unhealthy and should be remedied at once. His statements were partially substan- tiated by Dr. B. B. Robbins, city health officer, who called the coun- cil's attention 10 the fact that one of the largest soda bottling works and one of the largest milk depots In the city were located in that vicin- ity. Mir. Stewart and Mr. Wright both spoke in opposition, both feel ing that the expense involved by the changes would not be warranted at this time.
 After a lengthy discussion by members of the council it was de cided to hold the matter over until the next meeting of the city council. on Sept. '. It was believed that if the sewer facilities recommended for Divinity street are carried out, most of the sewer appropriation will be used up and it will be impossible to take care of Terryville avenue until next year.
