, Committee substitute for Sen ate Bill No. 1, which is the ter minoIogy of authorship under which Senator Joe Greens bill to create the Office of Administra- tor General is identified, was the measure occupying the spotlight last week in the Senate.
 As was the case in the Alaska Development Board bill, the oratory over It was revealing. 1. Green, the original author of the bill did not utter word in defense or explanation of the measure. His part on the prog ram had apparently been merely to introduce 1t.
 2. Coffey indulged in a hysteri- cal outburst in which he de- nounced Governor Gruenlng as 8 Dictator, shrieklng out furiously that the Governor dominated every board he was on, for which he was sharply called to l
 order by President Nerland.
 8. Cochran, with bland and soothing unction, disclaimed that he was casting any asper- sions on the incumbent Cover. nor; invoked an alleged pro- nouncement of former Governor Riggs, long since forgotten, fol which he claimed supported the concept expressed in this bill forswore the New Deal on whose coat tails he has seven times rid. 1 den into office and lifted high the banner of Jeffersonian Dem- ocracy in support of a measure sponsored as part of a Republi- can platform
 4 Brownell summed up the opinion of the minority in the Senate, in the trenchant phrase, Ut Sinks.
 5 Walker forsook the phlloso' phels aud sages and statesmen ol the past to quote in ic'ly measur- ed tones, that dripped with sa. tire h every syllable, no less an authority than Governor Gruen- ing himself "that he hoped tC 1 leave Alaska better than he found lt". If this bill passed, the l ketcbikan Senator intoned. the ] Governor would leave Alaska be ter than he found it
 An old old trick used success. fully by every minority group and every lobby that has ever tried to infiict bad legislation or the people or defeat good legisla' tion, made its appearance, oI tieipg in the argument for the bi with principle, embodied in terse expressions, sacred tc

Cool, clear water that is mt TO
drink is hard to produce in suffi-
cient quantities for modern city.
Members of the Washington So
ciety of Engineers had better un-
derstanding of that fact today, after
having heard of the problems ex-
planned last night by Edwin A.
Schmitt, head engineer and chief OF
the Water Supply Division, District
ONCE of the Army Engineers.
Mr.. Schmitt told the engineers,
who met in. the Cosmos Club, Mad
ison place and H street NV, that
the maximum demand for filtered
water in the District exceeds the
nominal capacity of the two, filtra-
ton plants. In addition, the capacity
of the two major pumping plants
practically has been reached, he
said.
When rapid sand filter plant was
built at Dalecarlia-at the western
District boundary-the expanded IA
cilities were supposed to be sufficient
until 1880. The A per cent wartime
jump in population here upset all
calculations by IS years.
Millions Needed.
To get enough water to supply its
own needs and those of Arlington
County, Va, which uses the District
supply, a report has been made to
Congress suggesting an expenditure
of about $4,000, 900 for supply IA
cilities and $19,000,000 for distribu-
ton facilities during the next 43
years.
Most of the improvements and
erection of new facilities would be in
the next IA years.
The building of a Federal City
in the Suitland area would create
problems that II venture to guess
the planners themselves do not yet
know" Mr.. Schmitt said. i
"If and when the Federal City
proposal actually develops, one thing
is sure-the water supply will come
from the Potomac River from a
point at or upstream of the Dale
carlia liberation plant" he said.
"The supply will have to be
pumped, since the average land ele-
walton of the Suitland area is con-
siderably higher than the river at
Great Falls. Since it is undesirable
to pump and transport heavily silt
laden water for long distances, it is
logical to believe that filtration
will be handled at or west of the
Dalecarlia plant and in proximity
of the Potomac River"
He predicted the population OF
Washington would reach a satura-
ton point about the end OF the

present century, and water facilities
need no longer be expanded after
that time. Principal expansion to
that time would be at and around
the Dalecarlia plant, more than
doubling the present size.
Would Charge Z. S.
Mr.. Schmitt said the 43-year
schedule of construction would cost
about SAL ,427 600.
David Auld, superintendent and
chief engineer of the District Water
Division, took the floor to say:
1--WE have heard what amounts
to a diagnosis of the existing and
future needs of the water system as
well as the prescribed course of
treatment The question which
then naturally arises is--can the
patient afford the operation?'
He said it was obvious present
sources of income are not sufficient
to finance the program. Doubling
of present water rates would raise
the necessary income. but Mr. Auld
Evening star., 1947-02-20

rejected it as a solution neither
desirable or necessary"
He advocated obtaining revenue
for all water consumed and pointed
out that about 25 per cent of the
accounted for water is given away
to the Federal and District govern
ments. To charge them for the wa
ter they use and reimburse them for
the services they render the water
system would mean a net increase in
revenue of just under $1,000, 900, he
said.

At the foot of the natural rock channel in the heart of the Ever green Bowl, youth groups of the city will assemble for the Easter Service again this year. The wea- therman has even suggested that the sun may touch the tops oi Mt. Juneau and Mt. Roberts that form the hackdrop of the city's beautiful spruce surrounded ann phitheatre.
 A big white cross will symbolize the passion of Good Friday that has turned into the triumph or Easter. Those who gather for the 630 am service will catch some thing of the spirit of the early disciples who very early in the morning on the first day of the week were filled with awe as they sensed the presence of the Risen Christ.
 High School pand teacher Joseph Shofner has delegated trumpet players to sound the call to worship from the surrounding hillside. The group will be led in singing by the slide trombone quartette of Henry Lorenzen Salvation Army and Bill Matheny, Dick Garrison, and Buddy Hunter.
