Water Supplies Affected
Municipal water plants as well as
privately-owned plants have been
shown by The Times to be compelled
to step up publication processes in
order that drinking water may be
made safe. This step up in chem
ical treatment has increased the
costs OF supplying water TO tax
payers.

Boats Captain Tells of Missing Vessel at
 Hood Bay

The Kenai, on the trip from Sitka to Juneau, will not arrive until late tonight, it was an- nounced at Alaska Steamship Company offices here today.
 The captain of the Kenai radioed Horace Adams, company official, lere last night telling of the late arrival, and adding that the Cor don D., a vessel owned by a man named Dahl, was not at Hood Bay.
 The vague meaning of the latter portion of the Kenai's message caused Adams to request the Coast Guard cutter Tallapoosa to inves- tigate any possible accident at Hood Bay. The Tallapoosa left last night for Whitestone Narrows to destroy a derelict which is ob- structing traffic.
 The Kenai regularly stops at Hood Bay to leave mail. Adams was unable to explain the refer ence to the missing vessel, but said he had asked the Tallapoosa to investigate to 'be on the safe side"

IS SWITCHED
Senate Committee Decides
to Offer the Harrison
Measure

WASHINGTON, Apr. 26. CUP
The senate finance committee de-
cided yesterday to recommend pay
ing the soldier bonus by issuing
cash or negotiable bonds which
veterans can exchange for cash.
The committee adopted the pro-
posal of it's hartman, Senator Pat
Harrison, D., Miss, in preference
to the Patman bill for printing
paper money and paying the vet
Grams now, although the Patman
bill passed the house, 31S to &c..
It made the substitution first
by voting to adopt the Vinson bill,
backed by the American Legion,
for the Patman bill, and then vot-
ing to substitute the Harrison bill
for the Vinson bill. 1t may look
silly, but it is supposed to be par
liamentary. The Vinson bill calls
for immediate payment of the bo-
nus without specifying how the
money is to be raised. More than
$4,000, 100000 is necessary.
In adopting Harrison's bill,
which he represented as a COM
promise that President Roosevelt
would be willing to sign, the COM
mittee wrote in an amendment. by

Horde OF Poison
SpidersDescends
On New Orleans

NEW ORLEANS, La, April 26.
(UP).-A horde of black widow
spiders, more deadly than rattle
snakes or tarantulas, has invaded
New Orleans, and one person has
died and several are seriously i'll
from their bites, the department
of conservation has warned.
DR.. James M. Gowanloch said
the spiders are about the size OF
a finger tip and have a red hour
glass design on their undersidess.
They usually are found in dark
corners. or in lumber piles.
A conservation department en-
ploye found II of the deadly in
sects during a few minutes search
of one neighborhood. They were
placed on exhibition to educate
citizens of the danger.
Persons bitten by the spiders
were warned to call a doctor i'm
mediately. A white spot appears
about the black widows bite and
in a few minutes the victim be-
gins to experience acute pains,
followed by a difficulty in breath
ing and q tensing of the abdomen
muscles.
One person bitten here more
than a year ago is still suffering

spondence that might reflect on
the present state relief admins
tration or that might provide am
munition for the senators and con-
gressmen who are trying to get
the relief patronage away from
Conner.
A special Waterman was placed
at the FERA offices in the Tower
building last night, with orders to
admit nobody after office hours
unless they had a written order.
All employees with keys were or
dered to turn them in.
Relief headquarters in Washing
ton has indicated that there will
be no change in the Mississippi
FERA set-up at present. This
means that Conner, who has been
frequently commended by Nation
al Director Hopkins for his eff
cheney in handling Mississippi re-
lief, will remain in charge.
The Harrison-Bilbo group had
been so certain of winning the di-
rectorship for DR.. Alliston that
they had written key-men of their
organizations to prepare lists OF
their supporters for relief jobs IN
