PRESIDENT HOOVER SAYS

Our laws are made by the people themselves. Theirs
is the right to repeal; but until repeal, it is an equal duty
to observe them and demand their enforcement"
The first duty of the President under his oath of of
flee is to secure the enforcement of the laws-if the law
is upheld only by Government officials, then all law is at
an end"
His attitude may be obscure, but it cannot conceal
the ugly truth that the lawbreaker, whoever he may be,
is the enemy of society"

TWO TO BE RELEASED

Police Fail to Find Body Of Man
Reported to Have Jumped

Two men held In the reported drown

years old, in the Potomac River near
Key Bridge, early yesterday, were to be
released by seventh precinct police this
afternoon unless the body was recov-
cred or unless additional evidence
pointing toward the drowning was re-
Vealed.
Harbor precinct police have dragged
the river almost continuously without
result since Robert G. Marcy, 81 years
old, of Cherrydalee, Va, and Howard
Conrad, SO years old, of Chevy Chase,
Md, notified police that Gill leaped
overheard from a boat in which they
were rowing about the river.
Lieut.. j. j. Burke, acting captain of
the seventh precinct, said that unless
there are new developments in the case
today he viii free Marcy and Conrad.
The two men were arrested for inveSti-
CATION after the former telephoned po-
lice that Gill had jumped from the
boat.
Both told conflicting stories regard
ing the drowning, Marcy saying that
Gill suddenly became Ill and deliber-
ately jumped from the boat near the
new Memorial Bridge, while Conrad told
police the drowning occurred on the
gas plant, nearly one mile up the river
from the bridge.
Neither man could supply police with
Gill's address, while a check-up of the
company where Marcy and Conrad
said Gill was employed also proved I'M

MUSICIANS future
WILL Be DECIDED
Meeting to Settle Status in
Washington Theaters
Now in Progress.

The future Of musicians in Wash
ington movie houses, who have been
fighting for the renewal of their con-
tract which expired August 81, may
be decided shortly as a result of a
meeting called in New York today be-
tween representatives of the American
Federation Of Musicians and its local
unit and the executives of the large
theater circuits involved In the con-
troversy. The meeting was to be held
In the office of Joseph N. Weber, pres
ident of the federation.
Although the musicians contract,
which was in blanket form between the
organized theater operators and the
local Musicians Union, expired at the
end Of last month, the orchestras have
continued to play in local theaters by
virtue of q truce reached between the
Musicians Union and the employers in
New York August %, which preserved
the status quo % the musicians for a
period Of two weeks after August 81.
The truce also averted a projected
strike Of all organized union theater
employees, who had threatened to walk
out If an amicable settlement was not
reached between the musicians and
their employers.
The committee representing the local
union. comprised Of A. G. Hayden,
president; John E. Birdsell, secretary,
and Richard Ashby. member of the
board Of directors, left Washington for
New York yesterday to participate in
the meeting today.
The refusal of the musicians to yield
to their demand for renewal of their
contract, which calls for the employ
ment Of q specific number of men in
all local theaters, and the unwillingness
Of the employers to enter into any form
of contract have heretofore resulted in
virtual collapse of negotiations toward
settlement of the dispute.

108,513,440 gallons over the preceding

Of the District Water Department made
public today.
This increase, the report states, is
equal TO the combined increase Of the
four years, 1925 to 1929. The reason
given for the enormous increase IN the
report is that it is largely due to the
lifting Of certain restrictions ON lawn
and sidewalk sprinkling which had been
strickly enforced prior to the compile
ton of the new supply conduit to the
Dale Carlia plant.
1878 Gallons Per Capita.
The daily average consumption was
81, 08l $3.50 gallons, being 100000 gall
Ions daily in excess of that of the pre-
ceding year. The greatest consumption
for one day was 02,500,00 gallons on
June 80, 1890, and the smallest IS, 800,-

By the Associated Press.
The Federal Government is seeking
to obtain from the Supreme Court be-
fore the close Of this year . ruling on

ton.
Contending that radio broadcasting
Is interstate commerce, the Govern
ment insists the congressional authority
for licensing and regulating stations
pending before the court challenge this
validity and their use as tests Is being
sought.

The first of these brought by sta
ton WCRW at Chicago, challenges the
authority Of the Radio Commission to
cut Its power from 500 watts, which 1t
had been using for some time, to 100
watts. The case win be reached for
oral argument in November, and the
Government has requested the court

time a case brought by the American
Bond 81 Mortgage GO. and Trianon,

protesting the refusal of the commits
sion to renew their licenses.

tinued, but the Government brought
suit to prevent 1t. The Federal Dis
trict Court in Chicago prohibited opera
ton without license, but the Circuit

asserted they had a property right, of
which Congress could not deprive them
