ADMINISTRATIVE BOARD RE.
CEIvEs REPORT FROM WATER
DEPARTMENT.

Assistant Superintendent of Water
William Lawton, who went on a trip
to New York some time ago to in
spect water plants with the idea OF
establishing here a plant designed to
prevent the propagation of germs in
the water, has submitted to the ad-
ministrative board his report.
He recommends that a permanent
plant for the use of hypochlorite u
lime be erected, to take the place Of
the makeshift which was built last
summer when 1t was thought the
water had become pregnated with ty-
phofd germs lie does not say he
believed there was disease or impure
matter in the water. but thought the
plan might be established as a matter
of precaution. Mr.. Lawton also
recommends the establishment of a
liquid chlorine plant. similar to that
in use in New York and Wilmington
This latter Is costlicr than the former
The report will be discussed by the
board later, and as a result it is prob
able the city council will be asked for
an appropriation for the construction
of one or the other of the plants.
