BETTER SEWAGE

F. G. Shipman Aims To Extend JEFF.

man of a committee OF the villagers

question, and he will make a plea for
the extension Of the Jefferson-ave.
sewer at the meeting tonight. He will
also protest against proposal of
Crosse Pointe village authorities to
increase its present facilities for
emptying the village sewage into Fox
creek and the adjoining lake.
THE sewage emptied into Fox
creek. which finds an outlet in Lake
st. Clair, close to the intake pipe of
the Detroit water works. said Mr..
Shipman. lis liable to pollute the
stream and cause Detroit people who
drink 1t to contract typhoid fever and
other diseases. Ii Is this pollution
which We want to avoid and the only
way to get away from 1t with any de-
gree of certainty is to extend the JEFF
ferson-ave. sewer from the Detroit
city limits to Crosse Pointe, Crosse
Pointe Park and Crosse Pointe Farms.
This sewer Is to empty into the De-
troit river at Fairview-ave.. below the
water works intake pipe In Lake St.
Clair. The sewer would take care OF
all the sewage now dumped into the
lake near the intake pipe and ii is
only right that the people OF the dis
tr!ct should avail themselves OF the
opportunity to avoid the pollution.
THE scheme would mean the bond
ing of the three villages to the extent
of 100000 or so, but that expenditure
would scarcely be felt IL the outlay
were over a number OF years. The
improvement would greatly increase
the value of the property Detroit is
now spending over 100000 to build
the sewer from the water works pump
ing station TO the city limits. Our
extension would not cost as much as
that, because the pipes would not
have to be as far under ground, nor
as large as those now being used in
