Delay In
N Nuuanu
Reservoir
ACTING GOVERNOR ATKINSON
TAKES UP THE MATTER OF SET
LING DISPUTES.

Acting Governor Atkinson has taken
up the matter of the long delay in
completing the Nuuanu resc rvoir dam
and this morning he went to the dam
with Contractor Whitehouse and F. f.
Thompson, attorney for the latter, as
the first step in settling some disputes
which are delaying the work.
The lack of rain and lowness of the
water in the other reservoirs have serv-
ed to call attention to the need of COM
pletion of the new reservoir, which
will give an ample supply, according
to plans. The matter will be taken
up with Superintendent Holloway the
acting governor and the contractor.
I'VE want to find out the cause for
the delays" said Atkinson. "There
seems to be many troubles over speci-
fications and other matters and in
the meantime work is delayed and we
do not get our dam. The matter ought
to be settled without delay"
The Nuuanu dam is d big engineering
enterprise and has been the subject of
much study At one time there was a
report that the work was not being
done on a safe plan and that break
in the dam might be expected. Inves-
tigation of the proposition, however,
failed to establis' ground for these
kicks and the work is going ahead.
