KICKS ON THE
WATER RATE

Editor Advertiser:-The Honolulu
Waterworks Department is run in
very arbitrary manner. With the ex
ception of general rates for househol,
purposes there is absolutely no scned
ule to govern anyone what his prope
and just rates should be. Section O
water rates is made up of innumerab l,
exceptions. and leaves the greater par
of water consumers in the dark as t.
the point OF rates. Mention is made
| all other places Except household)
viii be charged water rates according
to the estimated quantity used
Now that is a very vague expression,
! to put it mildly.
If person complains against the ex-
orbitant charges he is told in a very
abrupt manner: IF you don't like the
rate and refuse to pay we cut off your
water supply"
Sometimes the public is told that the
Spring Valley Water Company in San
Francisco charges the same rate.
1 submit, Mr.. Editor. the Honolulu
waterworks is not to be compared with
the Spring Valley Water Company in
San Francisco; that is a private cor
poration.
The Honolulu waterworks is a gov
erRment institution. carried on for the
benefit of the taxpayers. As long as it
is self-supporting that should satisfy
the public. No dividends are expected.
Now as regards the estimated guam
tity of water used; that leaves very
wide field for guess work
If anybody is not satisfied with the
guess work or dictum of the Honolulu
waterworks, there is absolutely no ap-
peal is only pay UP or shut off-the
water"
This state OF affairs is very much
one-sided
Take our tax assessors, for instance.
Il there is any dispute and we feel that
we don't get a square deal, there is a
chance to appeal and get a wrong ad-
justed. Not so with the waterworks.
The business section of Honolulu is in
most cases charged exorbitant rates for
their water supply in the last two
years. wholly inconsistent with their
/ am sure, Mr. Editor, that a large
number of property owners and water !
will second my remarks of !
protest against the recently assessed I
water rates
Hoping that tbs superintendent of
the waterworks will devise way and
method by schedule to make the water
rates more just and conforming to in
iividual needs and actual water con-
sumption, Respec fully.
