MAYOR EARLEY FAV0RS
BUYING WATER PLANTS
Chief Executive of Crown City Says
He Will Approve Acquisition of
Three Largest Companies

PASADENA, Jan. 6.-Mayor Farley
after receiving the report of Special
Engineer A. L. Sonderegger, this even
ing said he favors first the acquisition
of the plants of the three largest
water companies and then, if more
water is needed, he will favor securing
a portion of the Owens river supply,
if that will be obtainable.
This expression came after a careful
consideration of three reports, one by
Sonderegger and City Engineer Van
Drum, a supplemental one from the
same engineers and a third from Will
liam Thum and Fh. S. Wallace, re-
garding the real estate values of the
property of the three companies. These
reports show a total valuation of the
property of the companies estimated
by experts at $1,411,587, several dun
dred thousand dollars more than the
amount for which the city had agreed
to sell.
Members of the so-called citizens
committee, who met last evening. to-
day admit a permanent organization
had been formed to fight the water
bonds They also admit the list of
those present at a meeting of the
members, as printed in The Herald,
is correct but they refuse to state
what form the anti-bond campaign
will take and whether they will give
publicity to their arguments against
the water bonds.
