Ii may be. inded, is likely. that he

Such is one OF an engineer SUI

ing pressure is maintained at the water

against cOndagration, need not be
pressed to the exclusion of all things
else. In cooperation with the health
department there are ways to meet
such situations. People have been
urged to boil the water even from city
wells at times and this might be es-
pecially desirable when supplemental
supply comes from such shallow
sources as the wells at Singers.
Nobody objects TO the city calling
upon the Singer oliver and Stude-

DON'T WANT THE CTTY'S MONEY
AT THE PRICE

THANK YOU very much. but we
have now more money than we need
and don't want your deposits if you
expect more than two per cent in
terest on them
This reply of several Of the larger
banks To the offer of Mr.. Bruere, the
City Chamberlain, to deposit with
them large portions Of the proceeds
of the loan of S65,00O,00O just effect
ed is suggestive of two points.
The first is the prevailing plenti-
tude of lOanab bic funds and resulting
low rates. 1t is evident that the
banks could not make profitable use
of city deposits for which they would
pay three per cent by relending them
at the prevailing rates Of less than
two per cent on call or II per
cent for 60-day periOds-to say moth
ing of the cost of stationery. clerking
and risk involved in handling the
collaterals on which they would lend.
The second point suggested oy the
incident is the weakness OF the Cham
berlain's recently adopted system of
distributing the city'S deposits among
a multitude of small banks and trust
companies willing TO promise three
per cent a small increase in the in
tereSt received Was not sufficient TO
offset the loss of the cordial aid Of
repositories strong enough to help
