INCREASE IN WATER RATES
IN DISTRICT.

In these high-cost living times no
body can look with equanimity upor
any proposal that he pay more toI
such a necessary as water. Therefore
the announcement from the District
building that water rates are likely to
be raised July /, 1912, isn't very pleas,
ant reading, especially at this time OF
year and in this kind of weather Be.
fore We ''blow up" however, let us take
counsel with ourselves and consider
the status of water service in our city.
1t must be admitted that our water
department ought to be self-support-
ing. There cannot be any argument
against that as fundamental PROPOSE
ton. Our water receipts ought to be
sufficient to pay all expenses and pro-
vide for improvements, extensions, and
depreciation. That is self-evident.
Now, as a matter of fact, the Water
Department doesn't pay expenses. One
of two things, then, must be wrong.
Either it is badly managed or the rates
are too low.
Every indication points to the latter
of these two possibilities. 1t is known,
among people who know anything
about the question, that the depart
ment is economically conducted. The
department is, in fact, one of the best
administered in the District govern
ment. The statement of expenditures
in the annual reports of its superin-
tendent shows this pretty clearly. In
those reports is set down the amount
of money received. Opposite is set
down the, money spent and the pur-
poses for which it is spent. Half an
hours study of these reports is enough
to show that the District is getting
dollars worth of service for every dol
lar expended.
What, then, is the situation as to
rates? 1t is this:.
Washington now has the lowest rates
for water OF any city OF 100000 popu-
lation or over that has a municipal
plant.
Under the proposed new rates Wash.
ington would still have a lower rate
than any other city except Philadel-
phia, and it would have as low rates as
that city. >
The daily per capita consumption of
water in Washington is 200 gallons.
In most cities per capita consump-
ton of 100 gallons is considered suf
feient.
The new rates are to be 80 adjusted
that little economy would leave the
water bills of the small consumers what
they are now.
In view of these conditions. there
doesn't seem to be much occasion to be
alarmed over what we may have to
pay fog water year hence.

Mr.. Clark and Mr.. Folk have bott
