ABOVE SAFE UMIT
i IN UM WATER
68,482,000 Gallons Consum
ed Here Yesterday, Big In
y crease in Two Days.
"With the first spell of warm weath
er Washington's daily consumption of
Water increased by more than 5,000,
000 gallons in the past two days.
The consumption on May 28 was
S3.000.000 gallons. On June 1 it
jumped to more than 66,000.000 gal
lons, and yesterday the total con
sumption reported to J. S. Garland,
superintendent of the water depart
ment, was 6S.4S2.000 gallons.
The safe daily capacity of the sin
gle conduit which brings tW1 city's
water supply from Great Kalis is va
riously estimated at from 65.000.000
to 6S.000.000 gallons a day. Even if
the outside figure is taken, it will be
?e<n that, although summer is just
setting in, consumption already has,
gone to that figure. Previous to May
the daily amount this year has been
about fil.OOC.OOO. j
The consu .iption of June 2 last year
was approximately 69,000,000 gallons.
This v.-^s slightly more than yester
day's consumption, but officials of the ;
?water department believe the figures j
for this week indicate that the city (
will use about as much water during ;
the next four months as they did last j
summer.
The figures of the past few days j
mean that Washington must continue
this summer* as it has for several
years to conserve water in every way
possible in order not to go too far be
yond the safe capacity of the system.
They farther demonstrate the urgent
need of getting legislation from Con
gress as soon as possible to construct
another conduit.
Government officials again this sum
j iner will refrain from using water in
the fountains in public park spaces.
The householders of the city can on
i operate, it was pointed out at the
District building, by using water
Sparingly on lawns and sidewalks.
Regulations A* to "Watering.
An amendment to the police regu
lations prohibits the watering of side
walks during July, August and Sep
tember. Lawns may be watered be
tween 5 and 8 o'clock in the morning
and the same hours in the evening.
The police regulation on the subject
Xollows:
''The use of Potomac water for
washing streets and sidewalks, except
by the street cleaning department, is
hereby prohibited during the months
of July. August and September. Water
may be used on lawns between the
hours of 5 o'clock and 8 o'clock p.m.,
and 5 o'clock and S o'clock a.m. Any
person violating this regulation shall,
on conviction thereof, be fined not less
than$l nor more than Jio for each
and every such offense."
T
Venrzelos Cites Dangers of
Ex-King's Machinations.
I Martial Law Rules.
ATHENS, May 31.?Martial lair In
this country will continue as long as
Greece is at war with Turkey and the
yeace tmtyfc unsigned. Premier Veni
seks asserted In a speech in the cham
ber of deputies today. Opposition par
ties, instead of "rejoicing over the tri
umph of their country in the peace con
* Jerence." have taken advantage of the
abolition of martial law to start a prop
aganda "for the return' of King Con
stantine," he declared.
"The government," M. Venizelos con
tinued, "does not fear that such machi
nations will succeed, but reopening of
questions relative tw me rormer king
will certainly lead to bloodshed, as the
opposition parties are desperate, and
the large liberal majority is equally de
termined not to permit the issue to be
raised. i
"The government has extended the
olive branch to the opposition, which
has replied with sedition. The plea that
Constantine never abdicated, but relin
quished the throne temporarily to his
pon is the meanest legal chicanery.
Constantine showed himself an enemy
of the liberal powers, whose victory
has friven them a deciding voice in the
affairs of the world, and to reopen the !
Question of restoring him would insult j
the allies.
"It was only because of my assurance
that the question of Constantine was
closed forever, so far as the Greeks are
Concerned, that the allies overcame the
hesitation they felt about extending the
frontiers of Greece."
