HIGHLAND PARK
DOESN'T WANT
CITY'S WATER
Tells Mayor Rate is Too High
and Objects to HypOchloride
Treatment
VILLAGE PREFERS TO
HAVE OWN SYSTEM
Seems Determined to Proceed
With Project For Which Bond
Issue is Authorized

Highland Park objects 10 being fur
nished with water given the hypo-
chlorite treatment. Also. the villagers
complain that Detroit charges dou-
BILE rate for an inadequate supply.
These are some OF the objections
raised by Highland Park officials in a
conference in Mayor Marks office,
Monday afternoon, when an offer to
increase the supply was turned down
almost without consideration.
THE people of Highland Park want
their own water supply said Donald
Thomson, president OF the village.
They have voted $450,OO0 in water
bonds and we have gone ahead with
the project and secured bids on a
plant. We have repeatedly asked De-
troit for better service. but heretofore
the water board has always told us
they were without funds TO make the
necessary improvements
Detroit has 100000 invested in the
equipment now used to supply High
land Park, and Mayor Marx is anxious
TO have the village representatives
listen TO DuslnesS-llke proposal.
Also, the mayor believes that High
land Park will soon be annexed TO
the city and he does not want a costly
duplication in water systems. The
Highland Park officials do not share
the mayors belief regarding annexa-
ton
Members OF the water board declare
that it will cost Highland Park more
than $2,000,000 instead of $450,000 TO
pump and filter water from Lake St
Clair. Water Commissioner Lane
said that the expenditure OF an add
tional $4,000 by the city would give
the village an ample supply of water.
At the request OF Mayor Marx the
village officials promised to lay the
matter before the Highland Park
council, but there. is little hope that
the village win abandon its own water
supply project

JUDGE CONNOLLY TALKS
FOR CHARTER REFORMS

Judge Connolly addressed the Cen
trail Michigan-ave. Improvement asso-
citation, Monday night, in behalf OF
charter reform. He spoke particularly
in favor OF the two charter amend
ments for which he is circulating pc
titions-spring elections and the non
partisan ballot.
Il am opposed" he said to any
scheme whereby present otfice-holders
hope to remain in Office year longer
than they we're elected for by the peo-
pie; II would constitute a violation OF
the home rule act of 1903"
The association discussed plans for
the street carnival which will be held
next fall in conjunction with the West
End Business Mems association. The
