WATER CLOSET! ANO FAUCETS Water closets and faucets should be examined frequently in-order to keep the consumption of water on a normal basis. After a closet has been' flushed and the tank is filled, there should be no movement of the water in the bowl; if there is, water is wasting into the sewer. By holding a piece of paper or cardboard \ against the rear portion of the bowl, a flow may be detected which an ordinary examination would not disclose. STOP ALL LEAKS PROMPTLY as “a waste of water is a waste of money.” HOW TO SHUT I OFF WATER The “shut off” valve known as the stop and waste, where the pipes enter the basement or building is your immediate protection in the event of a burst pipe or meter and also for the purpose of shutting off and draining the house pipes where and when there is danger of freezing; it should be easy of access and in good condition. In some baaemepts it is covered with coal or it is in such bad condition that it cannot be turned, i The man of the hous? should see that the stop and waste is in good order and that the folks at home know how to operate it. To shut off turn handle so that it is at right angle with the pipe, one-quarter turn or if a wheel valve turn to right until completely closed. i* ALL SERVICE MUST HAVE A PRIVATE? SHUT OFF INSTALLED AND IN WORKING ORDER!

Bishop Oxnun And Velde Again Tangle New Controversy Is Started By Bishop WASHINGTON UP — .Methfedkc Bishop G. Bromley Oxnam and chairman Harold H. Velde R-111. of the house un-American activities committee tangled again today on the issue of Communism. Bishop Onamx, who had been engaged in a running feud with Velde and some other members of the committee for many months started the new controversy ny writing an article in Look magazine titled: The Real Dupes ini the Red Hunts Are on Congressional Committees. Velde, commenting on the article, said the bishop is not “an effective fighter against communism and the “Communist ideology.” ' ’ "Knowingly, or unknowingly, he was associated with a number of Communist front groups which have threatened to destroy, and in some instances have had a degree of success in destroying, our republican form of government,*’ Velde said. Bishop Otfnam, in rebuttal to this, said he found it hard to answer Velde and still “maintain proper dignity.” "His statements reveal the Incompetency that has characterized some of the activities of the committee, the bishop' said. “His statement indicates the influence of certain groups that have duped some members of the committee. ’ Bishop Oxnam appeared before the committee in July and emphtlcally denied any association with Communists or Communist groups. His article in <Look was in reply to one by J. B. Matthews titled:' Red Propaganda Has Influenced 7,000 U. S. Protestant Clergymen. 'Matthews, former director of research for the un-Arjcrican activities Committee, said “A majority of all the large and influential Communist front organizations of the past I\7 years have been headed by Protestant clergymen." Velde, in his comments abou» Bishop Oxnam's article, did not mention the one written by Matthews. “I must state, after a thorough review of the incidents precedent to and the hearing which was granted Bishop Oxnam oh July 21 of this year, that Bishop Oxnam exhibited the fact that he can jjfyer be an effective fighter ufeiinst communism and the Cont- ' munist ideology as I know the founder of his church and mine. John Wesley, would have been were he alive today," Velde said To this Bishop Oxnam replied: “Mr. Velde’s acquaintance with the, founder of methodism and the ethical demands of religion seems to be somewhat less than 1 had hoped it might be.” st’ ' —.
