POTOMAC WATER FILTRATION.
Advocates of the Sand and Alum
Methods Present Their Views

Advocates OF the Sand and Alum
Methods Present Their Views
The problem Of filtration for Potomac
water was discussed at q recent executive
meeting Of a subcommittee Of the House
Committee On the District of Columbia
Among those present were Lieut.. Col. A
NJ Miller, Of the Corps Of Engineers. I
s A. in charge Of the water works
OF he District Of Columbia. and Dr. Wood
ward. District Health Officer. other prom
inent physicians also attended Colonel
MillC plained the merits OF mechanical
fltrat- - while the physicians ia
vored the so-calIed English method OF
filtration by sand. The objections urged
against the sand system by Colonel Miller
and ether advocates of the mechanical
method are that il is SLOW and dirty; that
TO filter the drinking water used in the
District would require a filtration basin
covering at least twenty y-fOur acres that
this would have 10 be cleaned out every
forty days; that this cleaning process
would expose the people of the District
and surrounding country to serious peril:
that the first cost would be 81 coo eco and
the operating expenses about $50 GOO a
year.
defenders OF the sand system is that il
would require fourteen days Of use before
the filter beds would become sufficiently

Tho Commissioners today passed upon
the application of J. GermilIer to build
show windows projecting three feet from
the building line on BrigbtWOOd Avenue to
a house now existing and on the fr5Ist Of
which is a porch projecting four feet be
yond the building line In the application
il is stated that Il is proposed to remove
Jhe porch and build the show windows
In reporting upon the matter the inspec-
tor OF Buildings says that Brightwood
Avenue IS scheduled as a street ninety
feet wide with no parking. and the side
walk calls for fifteen feet width. He
states that the house was erected in 1893.
and at that time Brghtwood was sched-
uled as having a parking five feet wide.
Therefore. inasmuch as the proposed pro-
JectiCn is less in width than the one that
viii be removed, the Inspector asks III
structions whether the application can be
EayorabIy considered.
IN forwarding the report to his COL
leagues the Engineer Commissioner re-
commended that the application be granted.
The recommendation was approved.
