D.C. WATER SUPPLY “BEST ANYWHERE” J. Eugene Curtis Gives lllus- trated Talk Before Chevy Chase Citizens. ‘Washington’s water supply is the best, to be found' anywhere and the “cheap- est thing in the District,” J. Eugene Curtis, senior engineer, in charge of viaducts, told the Chevy Chase Citizens’ Association, at its meeting last night at the E. V. Brown School Mr. Curtis illustrated his talk with lantern slides showing the old and new | water supply systems in the District, stressing particularly the phases of con- struction work on the great under- ground viaducts and filtration plants. Nothing short of a severe earthquake— and seismologists say Washington is outside the quake area—-could damage the city's water supply system, Mr. Cur- tis sald. Not Hit by Drought. Bullt with an eye to the future, he explained, the supply was not affected by the drought, each person in the Dis- trict getting his full share of the daily 160-gallon per capita consumption. Even with this large amount, after deducting for wasteage of about one- fourth of the supply, the surplus is used to generate power to pump the water to every part of the city. Washington's ‘water system, he said, represents an in- vestment of $25,000,000, the new con-| duit alone having cost $9.000,000. | Future Speaker Wanted.

CHICAGO, April 16.—The mat- ter of down was up today. The question was before a conference of bedding manufacturers with Col. Charles H.

Flannery said a pillow is eider down or it isn’t. “Some manu- facturers of pillows and feather Deds label their wares as ‘100 per cent down' when they may be only 10 per cent down and 90 per cent hen feathers.” “LIBERALS” TO PROBE EMMERSON’S VETO Governor Declares There Is No Mystery About His Mailing Message to Taxpayers. By the Associated Press. SPRINGFIELD, Ill., April 16.—Aban- doning efforts- to override the veto of Gov. L. L.
