A $15,500 grant for continued
study ef an organism causing
tastes and odors in city water
supplies has been given to NTSC
by the National Institute of Health.
It is subject to renewal each
year for five years.
The work is directed by Dr. J.
K. G. Silvey, director of the bio-
logy department and chairman of
the division of science. He will be

A prominent leader, long his
associate, says Curley “had a
dual nature: he could be hard as
nails or soft as putty. His incli- |
nation was always to help people
—even his enemies '

ment.
Under study are the microscop-
ic organisms known as aquatic
actinomycetes. These are simple
plants intermediate between bac-
teria and molds.
From his investigations during
the past 21 years Dn Silvey has
concluded that actinomycetes have
caused 95 percent of the tastes
and odors occurring in surface
water supplies in the Southwest.
Previous studies of the problem
have been made under National
Institute of Health grants totaling
nearly $50,000 since 1947. These
have been designed' to classify
various strains of actinomycetes.
study their form and structure, and
to determine the relationship be-
tween the organisms and the en-
vironment in which they thrive.
In a speech to the American
Waterworks Assn. in 1954, Dr. Sil-
was indicted with others linked
with an organisation called Engi-
neers Group. The government

BOSTON, In — James M. Cur-
ley, last of the old-time political
bosses, has won his toughest cam-
paign — at 82.
He suffered a massive internal
hemorrhage after falls which frac-
tured both shoulders. RtiiiintoF
tors said they knew he'd recover,
because a day after an operation
-and heavy transfusions he wise-
cracked with them.
Elected mayor of Boston four
times, U.S. congressman four
times and governor of Massachu-
setts once. Curley met presidents
and panhandlers on the same easy
terms.
And yet, one ’ who has known
him longest, insists "the governor
always has kept a final barrier
between himself and his acquain-
tances."

vey described a new method of
controlling tastes and odors caus-
ed by those organisms. It uses a
compound which can save city wa-
ter plants from 60 to 85 per cent
of the expense of former methods.
The aim of work under the new-
est federal grant is to grow in the
laboratory 19 varieties of aquatic
actinomycetes. Studies will be
made of the food substances they
require and of the chemical com-
position of their byproducts, which
produce offensive tastes and odors
in water supplies.
“He’ll go to the limit for a
friend.”
The plain people, holding
friendliness to be' a major virtue,
were anything but critical. They
voted for him jn increasing thou-
sands.
Although he campaigned
through half the country for
Franklin D. Roosevelt. Curley
failed to gain hoped-for appoint-
ment as secretary of the Navy
or ambassador to Rome. Coolness
grew between him and the White
House, but it was still as a Roose-
velt man that he was elected gov-
ernor of Massachusetts in 1934.
PRESTIGE WANS
After an administration un-
rivaled in half a century ior ex-
citement, political manipulation
and charges oi patronage, h i s
prestige waned.
Two of the Massachusetts blue-
bloods whom he often ridiculed
defeated him for U. S. senator
and governor. His onetime pro-
tege Maurice J. Tobin twice beat
him for mayor.

autocratic big city boss.
Curley protests it's a "distorted
picture'.* of himself, failing to in-
clude progressive legislation and
humanitarian projects he accom-
plished. He says be considers him-
self as “not exactly" a political

Looking back over his career,
he says, “I think that what has
given me the greatest satisfaction
was lifting the burdens that bore

poor and raising the scale of
wages to a reasonable living rate
for those in the employ of the

Triumph and tragedy have al-
ternated throughout his life.
Death, a too-frequent visitor, took
in mid-career his first wife who
had borne him nine children. Now,
all his children except two, a
bachelor son and a Jesuit priest —
are gone — and there no grand-
children.
In 14 years he sped up the po-
litical ladder from common coun-
cillor in 1900 to congressman and
mayor. And yet, when he was 29'
and alderman, he had been sent1
to jail for taking a mail car-1
rier’s examination for a jobless
family man. During his 60-day
sentence his friends chanted.
