SHORTAGE OF WATER
AT FIRE DISCUSSED
Councilman Smith Thinks Charter Of
Alexandria Company Should
Be Amended. |
WILL INTRODUCE RESOLUTION

Special to fhe Washington Herald.
Alexandria, Va, March 1o-'T think II
about time TO take some action TO have
the charter OF the Alexandria Water
Company amended" said Councilman
Howard Smith, at a meeting of the city
council tonight, discussing the report OF
the FIRE committee of the city council
relative to the alleged inadequate water
supply furnished at the fire Of the Bry-
ant Fertilizer Company, February last
Mr.. Smith added that at the next meet
ing OF the city council he would intro
duce a resolution. in order that the coun-
ell may get together on the matter.
Councilman Brockett stated that Coun-
Gilman Lambert told him the water COM
pany contemplated carrying big main
across Fairfax street
Tho debate concerning the water COM
pany started when the fire committee OF
council reported that, in its opinion, the
inadequate water supply at the fire Feo-
ruary I was due to the fact that the
main at that point is too small. 1t being
only foar inches. II also reported that
tine fire engine could not be taken to the
river owing to its inability TO cross the
bridge at that point.
The report was made as the result OF
a resolution introduced by Councilman
Harrison some time ago Fire CHER
Gronau submitted to the fire committee
a letter containing his views on the mat
ter, which were substantially the same
rs those given by the committee in its
report.
Councilman Smith declared the city
council has authority TO make the wafer
company furnish water in sufficient
quantity to fight fires. He called at
tention to a clause in, the charter that
provides the company must furnish suf-
ficient water for fires.
The report of the fire committee was
received by the board Of aldermen, but
in the common council 1t was laid over
until the next meeting.
A resolution was passed authorizing the
fire committee of council to purchase
loo feet of hose.
Capt F. L. Slaymaksr, of the AleNan-
dria Light Infantry, appeared before
council and submitted plans and specifi-
cations for the remodeling of Armory
Hall. These were referred to the joint
committee on finance and public prop
erty.
It was explained by Capt Slaymaker
that as soon as the work of improving
the armory is done by the city a deed
for the property will be turned over to
the city. The plans, he declared, pro-
vide for making the place as attractive
as possible. He told of how the COM
pany is handicapped by the present arm

boy who is TO enter a mechanical
trade to obtain an education the
equivalent of that given at the aver
age high school, and to extend his
training. If possible, by entering a
good technical institution.
The high school curriculum repre-
scnts the minimum of academic train
ing probably necessary for an edu-
cation which will enable one to ad-
Just himself easily TO conditions.
Without it one is educationally
