Kansas, is one of the few large cities in the country which has had an adequate, safe supply of water during the postwar period which has been characterized by rapid growth, greatly increased water demajids and water shortages.

James E. Arnold, who cs caped from the Kansas penitentiary at Lansing January 10, 1956, while serving a life term for murder, was arrested yesterday at Twin Falls, Idaho. Arnold and Frank Logan Baker were convicted of the murder of Lloyd Sutton who was shot in the back and killed in a holdup in Johnson County June 6. 1945. Baker is an inmate of the prison.

Arnold, a trusty, was working on the river pumps at the reservoir outside the prison, when he escaped. No clue to his whereabouts had been obtained and it was assumed he had fled to a foreign country. Warden Tracy Hand said Arnold was arrested at Twin Falls on a traffic charge. He escaped the traffic patrolmen and a road block was set up. Arnold wrecked three county patrol cars in an attempt to run the road block, Hand said.

An officer has been sent to Idaho to return Arnold to the penitientiary. Arnold. 33, was convicted May 28, 1947, of first degree murder for slaying Sutton after Sutton had given Arnold and Baker a ride. The, two were hitch hiking. HOSPITAL GETS S1.500., Douglass to Use IMoney Architectural Studv.
