HOUSE KILLS QUIZ
Of SANITARY BODY
CantreI to Seek Grand Jury
Investigation Following
Adjournment.
BY stat1 Correspondent Of The Star.

BY q Stan Correspondent of The Star.
ANNAPOLIS, March 29.-Defeated
in an effort to obtain legislative in
urban Sanitary Commission, Delegate
Joseph A. Cantrel today declared he
would proceed with plans to seek q
grand jury probe of the commission
and its activities Immediately upon
the close of the State AsSembly's ses-
sion next week.
The House killed the Montgomery
County legislators resolution propos-
ing a sweeping inquiry Of the sani-
tary body with its adoption last night
of an unfavorable report presented by
the Grand Inquest Committee.
Accompanying the report was a
statement in which the committee
asserted that a thorough study of the
allegations brought ~ the Cantrel
measure failed to disclose any basis
for his accusations of overbonding,
waste. extravaganza and exorbitant
charges.
Depends on Witnesses.
Cantrel said that the success of his
attempt to obtain the grand jury in
quisitions depends upon Herold
Haynes, Hewitt Griggs Robertson and
Robert H. Walker, three Montgomery
County residents who testified against
the commission at a hearing on Can
trels measure two weeks ago.
II have no personal knowledge OF
Irregularities in the commission and
the decision of the Montgomery and
Prince Georges prosecutors on any
request to take the case before their
grand jury undoubtedly depends upon
the willingness of the three men to
testify" Cantrel added.
Cantrel moved to have the resolu-
ton substituted for the unfavorable
report when it was brought to the
House, but he was temporarily de-
MED the right to the floor when Hugh
Allen Meade of Baltimore City, act
ing chairman of the Grand Inquest
Committee. asked permission to have
the committees statement read.
Finds No Evidence.
The Montgomery Delegate did not
renew his effort to substitute the
resolution for the report after Meade's
request had been carried out.
It was set forth in the statement
that the committee found no evidence
to substantiate the charges that the
commissions rates for water in Prince
Georges and Montgomery are 300 per
cent higher than the District of Co.
lumbia rates, that the commission is
overbonded, or that the commission
shows unwarranted discrimination in
cutting off water in its patrons homes.
The committee also decided that the
commission is not uncer obligation to
maintain an Office in either Mont
gomery or Prince Georges Counties
and added that the maintenance of
the Office in Washington seems to
serve the convenience of most citi-
zens in both counties" 1t also de-
clared that the $3.50 rental for the
District Office does not seem unreason-
able, as claimed by Cantrels wit
neSses.

 There are already 1898 names on the register for the month Of Au- gust, as compared to 1,437 for the same dates last year.
 Registration. in the book does not give the actual number of visi- tors, however, said Father Kashe- varoif, explaining that most tour ists visit the museum on their way westward and again on their return trip, but of course are only regis tered once; and that persons re- maining in Juneau for few days often spend part of each day there.
 T should imagine that a ten percent increase to the figures given would be accurate" he commented.

Students Boarding House
SOlues Problem of Costs

BERKELEY, Calf. OP.-Two hun
dred and sixty University of California
students are effectively beating the
high cost of board and room through
q cooperative boarding house venture
now entering its fourth year.
1t costs them only $3.50 a month,
plus 312 hours of work week, to live
during the college year.
The cooperative idea was started
by 20 man students in 1882. For two
years they operated one boarding
house, increasing the number of par
Elephants to 65. A year ago activities
were expanded further.
This Fall the students opened their
newest venture in a former apartment
house, The so apartments were di-
vided into accommodations for 1875
students, two to a room. Seventy-five
more live elsewhere, but pay $13 a
month and work the regular hours for
their board at the "co-op" hall.

A. Administrator Chester c. Davis
said. the new corn-hog program Will
be drafted. Current in some quarters
was talk that the farmers may be
asked for their view on the ever
normal granary" plan legallzed by the
A. A. A. amendments. This would call
for storage of crops on farms in good
years so they can be utilized in poor
years.
Secretary Wallace, long an advocate
of the plan, called attention to a new
requirement for qualification for a
corn loan this year. He said cribs
in which loan corn" is stored must
be capable of storing the corn safely
for two years. This requirement, he
added, might be or might not be"
the beginning of the ever-normal
granary.
The corn loans will be made avail
able after December l on field corn
husked and stored in the ear in
sealed cribs. Loans will be made on
corn grading only No. or better,
whereas in 1888 and 1884 a No. 4
grade was sufficient.
Davis said not more than $780,
100000 should be required to finance
the loans this year.
