BIC TASK LOOMS
FOR CAPITAL CHEST
Babcock Urges Contributors
to Pay Pledges Soon in
Radio Plea.

Despite the $3.50 900 being expended
for relief by the Emergency Committee
Of the Board of Public Welfare, Com
munity Chest agencies engaged in well
fare and relief work still are facing the
heaviest task in their history, e. Claude
Babcock, secretary of the Civil Service
Commission, declared in a radio address
last night. He urged every contributor
who has not yet paid his campaign
pledge to the fund to make every effort
to do so before the November Chest
campaign.
Mr.. Babcock spoke over Station
WMAL through the courtesy of the
Washington Chamber Of Commerce,
which donated its time to the Chest.
He pointed out the appropriation for
the Board of Public Welfare had been
made available so late in the year that
the hard-pressed Chest agencies had
spent instead of the 40 per cent increase
estimated as necessary when the bud
gets were compiled last Fall as much
as 100 per cent increases In some cases.
The Associated Charities, for instance,
faces exhaustion Of its funds this
month.
Based on the present rate Of expendi-
lures by the agencies, he said. the Chest
deficit is expected to range from $780,
900 to 100000. He explained the ne
cessity of changing the campaign dates
to November in order that the Chest
might derive advantage Of the national
publicity on behalf of Community Chests
which will be given at that time. He
also said 1t would give the local Chest
the advantage of starting the calendar
year with a full knowledge Of the
amounts available for each agency.

100 MORE POLICE
ASKED IN BUDGET
Appropriation Sought for
1884 Shows Increase of
. $258,O36.

A request for the appointment Of 100
more policemen during the 1884 fiscal
year is the principal reason for the in
crease in the Police Department
estimates from So 3,O92, 1854, carried in the
current appropriation bill, to S3,351 900
requested in the 1884 estimates. These
policemen, to be employed at the start
ing wage of 1000 per annum, account
for $4,000 of the increase.
Most Of the balance is due to pro-
motions which are normally made
automatically from year to year. but
which were cancelled in 1888 by opera
ton of the economy act.
Requests are made for employment
Of five more clerks and stenographers in
1884 at an aggregate salary of S10,980.
The department also wants five addi-
tional radio patrol cars, and wants IS
new roadSaters to replace 35 now in
service which have already Travelled an
average of $4,000 miles apiece answering
hurry calls.
Four new police cruisers, to cost
$4,000, are requested, as are four patrol
wagons, to replace present equipment,
and 80 motor cycles, also to act as re-
placements for present stock.
The request for the increased number
Of policemen carries with it request
for an increased appropriation for uni
forms, which are supplied to the police
at the expense Of taxpayers. The ap-
preparation for this purpose In 1888 was
100000, and the estimate for 1884 Is
$4,000,

GIVEN CONSIDERS
CHARGES BY DUKE
Bonus Case Would Be Certified to
Another Judge if Bias" Ac-
cusation Justified.

Judge Ralph Given had under ad-
visement" yesterday charges made by
Attorney Jesse G. Duke that he acted
with bias and prejudice" in handling
Of recent trials of bonus marchers.
Duke made his accusation Friday In
the form of an affidavit which he filed
in Police Court after Judge Given had
refused his request to summon various
newspaper executives an6 newsreel
men as part of the defense in the pre-
liminary hearing of assault charges
against three members of the B. E. F.
The men, Bernard Mccoy, John o.
Olson and Broaddus Falkner. were ar
rested in the July % rioting when they
are said to have struck several pc!ice-
men.
The only action held probable at court
as result of the charges was that
Judge Given would certify the hearing
to another judge. He had informed
Duke that the law does not permit him
to allow the introduction of defense
testimony into a preliminary hearing
No developments are expected in the
charges Duke also brought against As
sistant United States Attorney Michael
F. Keogh until the accused returns
from his vacation next month. Duke
charged that Keogh. in a hearing sev-
eral days ago, had been in contempt
of court when he referred to an argu-
ment Duke made as "aSsinine" and
ignorant"

COST Of WELFARE
WORK INCREASES
Operation of JobIess Relief
Not Included Because Es-
innate Is Impossible.

Estimates Of the cost of operating
the many establishments Of the Board
of Public Welfare during the 1884 fiscal
year show a slight increase from the
$5,633,772 appropriated in the current
year to $5,815,877, the net result of
many increases and decreases among
various activities. The 1884 estimate,
however, does not include any sum for
the operation of the unemployment re-
lief started the first of this month with
an appropriation of S350,000, as it has
been impossible to make an estimate
of next years needs. 1t is regarded as
foregone conclusion that a supple
mental or deficiency appropriation will
be needed during the coming Winter
for continuing this work
Many increases asked for result from
expected increases in population in va
riouS institutions A few are for build
lngs and there is a scattering OF re-
quests for new positions.
The cost of board and care of all
children committed to guardianship IS
estimated at $250,000 instead Of the
current $225, 900 and that of home care
for dependent children from S163,280
to $4,000. The cost of maintenance

Peake saying that it will not be pos
sible to feed the prisoners on less unless
there is further decline in food prices.
New Buildings Needed.
The reformatory and work house con-
struction estimates are up from S65,-
600 to- $125,000 largely on account OF
requests for continuing construction on
four new projects, including wom-
ems quarters.
An increase in rates charged by the
trustees of the National Training
School for Boys is responsible for an
increase in this estimate frcm $4,000
to $4,000
Medical charities estimates show
net decrease of $4,000 due to increases
of $1,000 to Children's Hospital and
SIS 900 to Emergency Hospital
The estimates for the tuberculosis

D. c. TO PURCHASE
NEW WATER PUMPS
TO RAISE SUPPLY
Specifications Ready for Bid
ders Who Will Build Four
Booster Units.
FIVE DAYS RESERVE
WOULD BE PROVIDED
Dam Will Be Built in Dale Carlia
Reservoir and Station
Erected.

Specifications for four booster nunon<
designed to increase materially Wash
lnstons water supply. have just received
the approval of Assistant Secretary of
war Payne and Maj. Gen. Lytle Brown
chief of Army engineers.
This announcement was made YES
terday by Maj Joseph D. Arthur, ir.
District engineer for the War Depart
ment for the Washington area, who
explained that three of the pumps will
have a capacity of $4,000 600 gallons
per DAY, while the fourth will have a
capacity OF 100000 daily.
;, rms VIII mean. the major explained.
tnat should one or both of the conduits
mat carry water to the city from Great
Falls break down, Washington would
nave water supply on hand for a little
over five days instead of cnly three
days as at present.
Special Pumps Needed.
Special pumps will have to be con-
structed particularly fer this Job and
early In the coming week Mai Arthur
expects to have the specifications for
tnem ready to distribute to manufac-
turers. Some of these concerns are do
ing preliminary work on the pumps and
are arranging to submit small metal
models OF them. The exact date when
bids will be called for remains to be
fixed.
District engineers said yesterday that
the bidders will probably be given As
Gays In which to design their pumps.
The United States Engineers once
VIII have to wait until the pumps have
peen designed before going ahead with
further work on the proposal.
About the middle of the Dale Carlia
reservoir. on Conduit road near the
District line, dam is to be constructed
and house will be erected in which to
place the pumps. The size of the
shelter will be determined by the type
of pumps used.
Seven-Foot Lift Proposed.
Maj. Arthur explained that the
pumping station will lift the water
flowing out of the Washington end of
the conduits some feet over the dam
INTO the higher level portions of the Dale
CarLa Reservoir. This means that Dale
Carlia Reservoir will become a two-leyel
lake; that portion at the mouth Of the
conduitS being the lower, will permit
the water to flow more freely out of
the great tubes that bring it down to
the city from Great Falls.
A three-day total supply of 268, ,000, 900
gallons Is now available, Mai. Arthur
asserted, in the event of emergency.
With the proposed booster plant in
operation, Washington viii have some
thing over five days water supply avail
able should the conduits go out. This
total will be 469, 900 900 gallons.
Maj. Arthur pointed out that the city
at present is using daily average of
90,000,000 gallons. During the recent
hot weather Washington reached its
maximum daily use Of water, when a
top figure of 116,000,o00 gallons per day
was reached.

MANY SPOTTED FEVER CASES
REPORTED IN NEW OUTBREAK
Rocky Mountain Disease Strikes Five in
Washington and Is in Maryland
Virginia Also Hit

Rocky Mountain spotted fever, which
made its first appearance in the East
two years ago, again has broken out
in the District and nearby Virginia
and Maryland.
There have been five cases reported
in Washington since June l, two of
them hospital patients from out OF
town. Fifteen cases have been re-
ported to the Maryland State Health
Department. seven of them from Anne
Arundel County, near Annapolis. Vir-
ginia statistics we're not available to-
dav, but reports to the Public Health
Service indicate the existence of quite
a few cases.
No Increase Shown.
These figures, according to the Pub
lie Health Service, show that the mall
ady is holding its own in its new terri
tory but failing to make any noticeable
increase All the Maryland cases are
reported east of Frederick and the Vir-
ginia cases are spread over the eastern
portion of the State, with some near
Washington.
This disease for years was confined
to the Rocky Mountain area where it
was more or less concentrated in
pockets" The death rate varied
greatly according to the locality, in
some cases running over SO per cent. 1t
was one Of the most dreaded of all the
tranSmiSSable diseases, somewhat allied
to typhus fever, but more serious. The
Public Health Service developed vac
cine against it. There is no specific
remedy The vaccine greatly reduced
the death rate.
Spread by Animal Tick.
The malady was spread by an animal
tick peculiar to the Rocky Mountain
region. 1t infested most mammals and
was contacted by man largely by being
brushed off the bushes. Children. play
ing in shrubbery and weed patches
were easy victims.
The particular tick which transmitted
it lived only in the Rocky Mountains
and could not live anywhere else. 1t
was almost indistinguishable, however,
from the common dog tick. The dog
tick covered the whole country east of
the Rockies, but for some unknown rea-
son its range stopped abruptly at the
mountain foothills. Dogs in the noun
tains were entirely free of it. There
was actually a narrow range of coun-
try between the two ticks which they
gradually crossed until their ranges
overlapped Almost as soon as this
two years ago, came the first
reports of a disease, clinically indistin-
guishable from Rocky Mountain spot
