BOY BATHER DROWNS
IN SCHUYLKILL RIVER
NEAR PARK ENTRANCE
Patrick Smith Loses Life While
Guard and Canoeist Race
to Rescue
Two seven -year -old children of
Mnnayunk. gleefully went swimming
today that they might be the first nf
their companions to be refreshed In the
cool waters of the Schuylkill this sea
son. One of them returned. His compan
ion had been drowned before his eyes.
The dead child was Patrick Smith,
41.11 Terrace street.
With John Starogarhe, 4130 Terrace
street, the boy went to bathe in the rear
of tho old Itlverside Mansion which is
being torn down.
Patrick was first to enter the uuter.
They splashed aud played for n few
minutes when suddenly Patrick disap
peared. He came up gasping nnd called
"help"! John, horror-stricken, shout
ed to C. J. Dunn, 2.113 North Twelfth
street, who was paddling n canoe n few
hundred feet away. Dupn turned in
time to see the struggling boy. He
brought the craft around, called to Park
Guard Maloney, who was directing
traffic at the entrance to the' Fast Ilivcr
Drive.
vThcn began a race between the guard
arid the canoe for the spot where the
boy was last seen. Maloney reached
there first and plunged into the water.
When he came, up after a becond
dive'be held the lifeless body of Patrick.
In the meantime workmen and auto
luobllists had called Dr. Joseph Schlot
terer, of 207 Green lane, from the Pen
coyd Iron Works. Efforts to revive the
boy were without avail. He wu's pro
nounced dead andJiJ body removed to
his home. j
Mrs. Johanna Smith, the mother, is
prostrated over the accident. Tho lad
had bceu allowed to stay home from
school to'incct an older brother who is
returning rtoday from France. The
time of his arrival was set back an
hour or two, however, and the lad had
sought bis conipanton and disappeared,
she said.

Bureau Chief Predicts Cur
tailed Supply in Central and
Southern Sections
CITY ON LOWER PRESSURE
A water shortage in the central nnd
southern sections of the city this hum
mer is a certainty, in the opinion of
Chief Davis, of the Water Durenu.
Arrival of warm weather has increased
consumption nnd has influenced n ic
iluction in pressure. This situation,
enrly in the season, presages trouble,
said Chief Davis today.
Water consumption today wns the
heaviest of the spring season. Shortly
after fi o'clock this morning, when
housenies getting nn early stnrt on
their week's washing made heavy de
mands upon the service, the pressure in
all parts of the city was reduced ten
pound". An estimate of today's con
sumption based upon the hours between
midnight nnd 10 o'clock this morning;
places the figure at .1.10,000,000 gnllons,
an amount far in excess of enpucity, r.s
the plants are run at the present time.
Consumption on Saturday was cor
respondingly heavy, and only the fact
that yesterday was an off day, with
but 301,000,000 gallons used, prevented
the general depletion of the reservolis
today. For a very limited period it is
possible for the bureau to furnish wuter
at the rate of .150,000,000 gallons each
twenty-four hours, hut this outside
limit can only be supplied by working
the machinery of pumping and filtration
plants nt full capacity and drawing
upon all reservoir supplies,
"Danger Point Readied"
"The danger point was reached to-
day," said Chief Davis, "iu explaining
low pressure. "Consumption this heavy
tnus eany in tne summer shows whnt
we cad expect. The Torresdale plant
has not yet caught up from its reduced
production caused by its being under
manned during tho war, nnd the supply
in the Kost Park reservoir is two feet
lower than usual, owing to ueeded re
pairs at that point. We are doing
everything to get a maximum reserve
supply on hand before we strike real
hot weather. A prolonged hot spell
would mean a serious shortuge, as the
plants are operating with their long
used equipment."
Efforts at conservatian have caused
soino friction between the Water Bu
reau and the Falrmount Park Com
mission as to the use of water. De
mand has been mode for an increase
dally supply of 100,000 gallons for the
aquarium, but this has not been granted,
as the water is needed too badly for
business and home use. .Permission has
been refused tie commission to use the
Washington fountain, tho greatest con
sumer of water In the park. Some of
the smaller fountains, however, will bo
operated until the shortage becomes more
pronouueed.
Council' Tardiness Blamed
Two factors enter into the, situation
as 'it exists today. One is Councils'

CARE OF STREETS
Senator Indorses Claims of
Lower Cost Made Public
by Charter Revisionists
SENATE BATTLE IMPENDS
Bv 1 Slnff Corrrmiouilent
Ilarrlsburg, May ", Claims ad
vanced in n statement made public to
day by the Philadelphia charter com
mittee that the city should do its own
contract work, received indorsement of
Senator Penrose.
The senator said he "assumed the
figures to be correct" which the charter
committee used in supporting its ton
tention thnt cheaper and better results
are obtained by municipalties which do
their own contruct work.
Comparative figures were given by thei
charter committee to show that street
denning costs more in Philadelphia un
der private contracts than it does iu
cities where the municipality does the
work.
"These figures appear to show." said
Semitor Penrose, "that the city can do
its own contract work with less expendi
ture nnd with more satisfactory results.
The facts seem borne out iu llarrisburg
and Pittsburgh,
"The streets in both these cities,
where the street cleaning is done under
municipal control, are clenu."
Objection was. made by the senator to
the paragraph in the statement which
snjs that Governor Sprout's attitude
endangers the passage of the coutruct
clause in the Woodward charter bill,
which would require the city to do its
own street cleaning and garbage col
lection except on n vote of three
fourths of the members of the proposed
single chamber council to award the
work to a private contractor.
View of Governor
The paragraph in" the statement reads
as follows :
"The committee feels that the only
uncertainty witli respect to the passage
of these measures witli ull the sub
stantial remedies they embrace, lies In
the attitude of Governor Sproul with
respect to the contract provisions in the
Woodward bills, concerning which he
has not to date committed himself."
The statement goes on to state that
Governor asked if it would not be better
to substitute an amendment to provide
for a majority vote of council to decide
whether the city is t6 do its own con
tract work or private contractors.
Auouncing thnt he did not speak for
the Governor, Senator Penrose said it
was his opinion that "the Governor
simply threw out a mild suggestion on
a majdrity vote."
He ndded that he thought the com-.
mlttee had "over-reached Jn Its refer
ence to the Governor's reported Inde
cision on the contract matter.
A number of members of the House
visited Senator Penrose today and con
ferred with him at his headquarters In
the Penn-Hrirrls Hotel, One of the first
callers was District Attorney Samuel
P. Itotan, of Philadelphia, who is here
to watch the progress of the Dalx Sen

lie deplored the scllinc of candies

the smoking of men (luring the services.
"We ought to protest," lie declared. No
action was taken by the ministers.
The attack followed an nddress by
Alfred L. Paxis, religious secretary of
the . M. C. A., nt the navy yard, whoi
nsked the co-operation of the ministers I
in the work. After Mr. McKcntj-'s nil-
dress he stated that the V. M. C. A
gave over one day to religious work 11 nil
that their doors arc closed for other
purposes.
"We never used movies ns a bait." he
declared, "but aroused the ire of some
of the men for selling them nothing on
Sunday. As a result they go over to
the recreation renter."
Bolsheism Denounced
Bolshevism was the topic of Dr. H.
D. Ketcham. of the State Street M.E.
Church.-of Trenton, who 'ins the prlu
clpal speaker. I.?
"Iu the shadow of Independence
Square," lie declared, "nre Bolshevik
headquarters whose adherents desire not
only to submit the ten commandments
to a popular vote, but favor taking
them nnd doing witli them nbout as thev
please. But Christianity won't fail af
though there may be a terrible fight.
"Ten j cars ago was there the same
suggestiveness in women's dress as
there is today; the same leaning over
the edge of immodesty in the tlie
utre? The people 011 a whole are better
today, but there ifre some tendencies
which have become 11 meuace."
A street campaign to reach between
400,000 nnd fiOO.OOO citizens of Phila
delphia untouched by nuv Christian
ngency, is being planned bj the Baptists,
according to the Dr. Samuel . Batten.
He made the announcement nt the
weekly ministerial meeting held in the
First Baptist church.
Dr. Batten snid that such 11 course
was necessary not only from n spiritual
standpoint, but from the view of present'
industrial unrest. He urged that min-'
isters as well ns Injmen, be prepared
to offer their services as speakers when
tue tun plans arc announced in a few
dnys.
Urges Loj ally to Soldiers
The Bev. Dr. Charles Doddell, a
Methodist evangelist of New York, was
the principal speaker nt the meeting.
He urged thnt the ministers do nil in
wieir power in live up to tlieir promises
i" ri'iuriiuig sonuers.
At the Lutheran ministers' gntliering
in the Y. M. C. A. today, Bev. Dr. E.
F. Bnchmnu, of the Mnry .1. Drexel
Home, made n plea that the ministers
direct their efforts toward savinn the
wealthy as well as the poor people. "If
the poor man is wortli saving, so is the
rich," he said, "and we should make
just ns grent nn effort to accomplish
tlieir salvation." He suggested thut
returning soldiers might be employed as
"christian workers" in connection with
the intcr-missiou program, which wus
the subject of his discourse.
