Mr.. HOPES SUGGESTS

Municipal Engineer Edgar NJ.

to the Water Commissioners at their

into criticisms that the water supply
was not adequate for the Fire Depart
ment at the Foord-M Massey store fire

after discussing the size and pressure

reaches the conclusion that the fire
companies, excepting the Reliance.
received an adequate supply of wa
ter under pressure sufficient to pro-
duce positive heads at the hydrants'
Mr.. Hopes points out that the Re
lance Company had a basis for its
complaint about inadequate ~-lter
supply because it was stationed at
Seventh and Shipley streets and was
pumping from an eight-inch main that
was fed at Eighth and Shipley streets
by four-inch main. The companies
that received an adequate supply OF
water under pressure sufficient to
produce positive heads. as mentioned
in the report. are the Fame, Brandy

The Phoenix Company is not men
toned in this connection. it having
been at Eighth and Market streets.
and having experienced some valve
trouble that interfered with its pump
ing.
Engineer Hopes makes several
recommendations fol- betterment of
the water system and to give a high
pressure service throughout a greater
area of the business section than at
present. One recommendation Is that
the four-inch main be replaced by a
twelve-inch main on Shipley street
between Eighth and Ninth streets and
that st be connected with the new
high pressure main which extends
along Eighth street to King street.
Another impOrtant recommendation
is that the mains on Shipley, Market
and King streets from Tenth to Fifth
streets be supplied from the Filtered
water reservoir at the Weldin farm
This can be effected, Mr.. Hopes
points out by connecting the twenty
