PLANS TO READJUST
RATES FOR WATER
Some Large Consumers Now
Shown to Be Paying More
Per Gallon Than Smaller.

AS a first step towards the readiust~
ment OF water rates In Salt Lake. Su-
perintenhent G. II. ia rrett OF the water
department yesterday compiled table
showing several hundred of the larger
water consumers. the rates they pay and
the average monthly consumers OF water.
This table shows that many compa ra
lively small consumers are obtaining the
q cents per thousa nd gallons rate while
other much larger consumers are forced
TO pay The 7-cent rate.
IL Is proposed 20 eradicate this dis
,rlm!ndt0ry system by establishing
minimum average OF consumption for
All consumers using less than the pre-
scrlbed amount will have 10 pay the
higher rate. II the new plan Is adopted.
Under the present ordinance water
users arc CLASSIFIED as commercial, do
nesiic on manufacturers. The manufac-
turers were given the Scent rate and
some % the larger commercial users.
II has developed recently that many con-
sumers enjoying the lesser rate, under
the pretcXt OF being manufacturers. are
actually using less water than some con-
sgmers ciassed as domestic users. If
MIR; Barretts plan succeeds, all classif-
cations OF the consumers will be elinli-
mated and the sale OF rnetered water Will
be based purely on the quantity of con-
Tie table prepared by Mr., Barrett
shows. for instance. that the new Walker
Bank building is paying the 7-ccnt rate
on an average consumption of 1850, 900
gallons a month, while the Salt Lake &
Ogden railroad. with an average OF
1000 gallons a month. is enjoying the
scent rate. The table contains scores
OF just such examples.
We do not Wish TO Increase meter

adjust them on more equitable basis,

apply to users OF water In a certain av-
crase quantity. or over. This minimum
amount might be fixed as low as 100, 900

"MELTING POT" is
CLARK'S OFFERING

Professor S. H. Clark, who has been
presented here the last three nights in
dramatic readings by the Gamma Phi
sorority Of the university, finished his
engagement last night before a large
crowd. His reading was that of the
80 Melting Pot, by Israel ZangwiIl
This play has been produced in nearly
every city in the country during the
past few years and is, therefore, fair.
ly well known. In fact, it is much
more widely known than other things
which Mr.. Clark has read this visit and
for that reason attracted a larger
crowd.
The "Melting Pot' is the story of
Jewish family in New York city which
meets with many adversities for which
they try to account in various ways.
The grown son is the principal char
acter of the play. 1t is his idea that
America should be made the "melting
pot' of the world. He thinks that in
America all races should meet, inter
minglo, cast off their racial prcjudces
and come out In the end Americans.

BRITISH ANSWER IN

and Flat Proposal for Arbi-

President-elect Wilson FavorS
the Passage of the Root
Amendment.
MATTER WILL GO OVER

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-The re-
.joinder of the British government to
the last American note regarding the
Panama canal zone tolls question was
delivered today to Secretary Knox by
Embassador Bryce. Though naturally
of great interest to Secretary Knox, ne
will make no effort to consider it, but
will allow the negotiations on the
American side TO be continued by his
successor in Office.
II is understood that the British note.
after a repetition of former arguments
In support of its original contentious,
contains fat proposal for arbitration
between the two countries, according
to the provisions Of the existing special
arbitration treaty between the two
countries, which will expire in June.
The note was read TO Mr.. Knox by
ambassador Bryce at the secretary S
office and copy was left with the sec
retary by direction of Sir Edward Grey.
It will be withheld from publication
for the present to afford Secretary Knox
an oportunity to lay it before President
TAFT, but it has been arranged that the
note shall be given out for publication
in the Sunday morning papers in this
country and the Monday morning pa
pers in Europe.

Wilson Favors Repeal.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-President
elect Wilson has made known to Demo
cratic senate leaders most closely in hi:
confidence that he favors the passage
0f Senator Root s amendment to the
Panama canal bill, to repeal the provi
sion eIempting American coastwise
shipping from payment of tolls.
1t was said today that the new presi.
dent had made his position plain lately
10 several Democratic senators. 1t was
the subject of remark because Senator
O'Gorman of New York, who has been
regarded as moro or less q spokesman
for Mr. Wilson, is sturdy opponent of
the Root amendment and champion of
free passage for American ships.
There is no likelihood of any action
on the Root repeal amendment during
the few remaining days of the sixty
second congress. 1t was recently Ia
bled in the senate interoceanic canal
committee, thus preventing the posi-.
bllity OF even being brought before the
senate on minority report
1t is expected to be renewed at the
next congress, probably during the ex.
ira session,
