Yuma, Ariz., June 19, 1915. Yuma Examiner Yuma, Arizona.
 Gentlemen: Will you kindly publish the following timely suggestion for the benefit and good of our city?
 Whats the matter with our Hon. orable Mayor? We expected great things from him in the way of public improvement. Is he and the Honorable Council asleep at the switch? Yuma citizens have great confidence in the mayor and city council.
 ''Why not ask for bond issue for a municipal water system? Yuma will never amount to anything without it. The householder, much less the lessee, cannot afford to pay high water charge to keep up their shrubbery and lawns, and we sure need the water to make them grow and make our homes beau tiful and attractive for the new citi- zens who come to settle among us as we'll as for our families during the hot weather so as to avoid to a great extent the depopulation of our city.
 Let's all boost together for a beau tiful Yuma. Let's get the waterworks for a starter and keep up the improve ments. See what other cities are do- ing. DON'T LET THEM GET AHEAD OF US"
 Thanking you in advance for your courtesy. Respectfully yours,
 MAX CZUCZKA.
