CITY CONFRONTED
WITHSEWER NEED
another Improvement in Newly An.
uexed Territory Required, Twelfth
Street Shows.
pIFFICULTY is MET IN WORK
Sewage From Numerous Private
Drains Has Impeded Progress in
the Construction of CURLING.

Rock Island municipal authorities
TO-DAY were confronted with a problem
which may lead to the institution soon
Of a new public improvement project
in the territory south of Eighteenth
avenue.
Extreme difficulty has been met in
the installation of Curbing on Twelfth
street where paving is now being laid
This has been found due to a number
of private sewers which have emp.ied
on Twelfth street from the east.
Mayor McConochie made a tour Of
inspection over the highway today
and has directed that these sewers be
drained across Twelfth street, empty
ing on the west side of the highway.
This will permit the construction of
the curb without any trouble.
City officials are concerned, however,
with what TO do with this sewage,
Thought was given today to the con-
struction Of a sewer system in con-
junction with the storm drain improve
ment now being considered. Members
of the Southwest Improvement asso-
citation have gone on record as in
dorsing projects which will take care
Of storm water on Twelfth street. 1t
is possible the storm drain system so
considered will be converted into a
sewer system and the sewage from
these private homes be disposed of
with single project.
Construct South.
we will have TO construct west and
south" Mayor MCConochie said today.
In the past sewer and storm drains
have been built north into the city.
We will want to take the water away
from the city instead of carrying it
through north

effect, the two reports were the same
in that each left the decision to the
several states, but the minority report.
by its wording, made definite reaffirm-
alton of the whole question of state
rights. The minority report was de-
feated by the following vote:
