About 1870 Mexican general, An
tonic Lopez de Santa Anna, dicta-
tor and president of Mexico, after
sojourn ON Staten Island, New
York, left behind him large lump
OF chicle gum. His landlord, Thorn
as Adams, came across 1t and
thought it was some kind OF rubber.
He tried to vulcanize without
success. He tried it as base for
false teeth, again failure. Then he
remembered that the Mexican used
always to be chewing it--and that
he had lovely white teeth. So Adams
sent some to d sweet shop. Success
at last! In 1871 he took out a patent
for making chewing gum.--Tit-Bits

NEW TREND SEEN
IN ARCHITECTURE
Revival of Building, "Saner
Approach" Held Work.
ing Changes.

Revival Of building and "a saner
approach on the part Of architects"
are working important changes In
the trend Of contemporary archi-
lecture, Harvey Wiley Corbett, New
York architect, says in outlining =
lecture program at the Summer session
Of Columbia University in which rep
resentatives OF the architectural pro-
fession will participate.
Mr.. Corbett foresees the emergence
Of new and younger leaders in Ameri-
can architecture, which, he predicts.
will be less Influenced by foreign
precedents. Architects face great and
alluring opportunities, according to
Mr.. Corbett, who points out that an
enormous amount Of building must
be done.
"The extreme moderniStic, highly
stylized character OF the last two or
three years is settling down to a more
rational basis" he continues. "In
the long run architecture is always
an expression OF the condition OF the
people; however, it is never an ex-
preston Of the moment, such as the
daily news columns, because there Is
the time lag required between the
conception of an architects idea and
the final building; however, speed
In building construction has dimin-
shed this time lag.
Architecture always is and always
must be an outgrowth of how the
people live, what they think, where
they work, and what their human
relationships happen to be.
The trend OF the times, as I see
1t In the field OF architecture, will
be less and less influenced by foreign
precedents and will become more and
more the sincere expression OF Amer
icas own needs and aspirations. The
younger men OF the present genera
ton will be the leaders In this idea,
because they are freer from inti-
mate association with the old fash
ioned ideas.
when in the field OF art, reason
able prosperity Is continuous, it is
dificult to change the approach to
the design problem. because there is
q strong momentum carrying the
old along with the new; but the re-
cent depression, which started In
Europe many years before 1t started
here, and which has lasted 80 long
here, has practically cancelled the
influence Of momentum.

CONSUMPTION OF WATER
AT BOOM.TIME PEAK

Water consumption in the United
States is rising from the depression
low with business and the stock mar
ket, according to the Plumbing and
Heating Industries Bureau.
Experts believe per capita consump-
ton is approximately 1872 gallons per
day, the bureau said. a figure which
makes Americans the greatest users
of water in the world.
This rate of consumption is about
the same as that which prevailed In
1929 and 1880. when the all-time peak
was reached. The figure was obtained,
according to the bureau, by dividing
the total water consumption listed in
q survey by the total population rep
resented.
In 1882 water consumption dropped
about IL per cent below the 1929 level.
largely because of curtailed industrial
use. Gross revenue was OF about 6
per cent. The low ebb Of water con-

With more than 1000 members

Declaring that the organization
is more interested in members
than dollars" Marcy L. Sperry,
president of the Washington Gas
Light Company and chairman of
the Roll Call, said that this years
quota was set at $4,000 members.
Meanwhile, a rivalry was brew
ing between the Government and
general business groups, with a
challenge being issued by Edgar
Morris, chairman of the business
group, to Gen. Fred w. Boschen,
leader of the Government unit,
Despite the fact that the Govern
r1ent unit enrolled $4,000 mem

declared that he would match re-
suits with the large Government
enrolment.
First of the financial groups to
come through with a 100 per cent
enrolment of employees was the
Bank of Commerce and Savings,
which was followed closely by
Thomas Father, Inc. Five other
firms also reported 100 per cent
enrolment yesterday.
