City Commissioner lndorses
Scheme for Industries,

Win completion Of the new city res
efvoif an unlimited supply OF cheap
untrsassd water will be available for
industrial purposes. BY restricting all
industrial enterprises to one district II
could be accomplished at small cost
TO the CITY and at the same time afford
ample railroad facilities,
This Is the opinion OF Dr. J. G.
Street, commissioner OF public prop
erty. on the plan brosehsd by John W..
Shartel at the meeting OF the board OF
directors OF the Chamber Of Commerce
yesterday to use cheap. unfitered water
in Oklahoma City for industrial pur-
poses.
Lew Pressure Main.
According to a plan suggested by Dr..
Street, q low pressure main could be
connected at a point between the pump
ing station and the city reservoir TO
run parallel with the Rock Island rail
road, and while this would restrict in
dustrial enterprises to one district, il
would afford ample shioping facilities
AZ 4 small cost and would attract man
ufsetnins enterprises here, II is
thought.
Flood prevention in Oklahoma City is
possible in but one way, according TO
City Engineer Bert Hart Straighten-
ing the course Of the river which would
bring the fourteen miles now traversed
by the North Canadian within the city
limits. to a straight course OF six miles,
is the only solution.
Beginning on the east al point near
the fair grounds, the river should be
Strengthened 10 point near the cut
of dam at the new dam. Straighten-
ing the channel, however will involve
engineering plans to overcome the in
creased swiftness OF the stream, as the
rapid ctrrent would soon wash into and
cut away the banks, and II void not
he long until II created a new course as
winding as lis present channel.
Dam Suggested.
This could be overcome by dam at
Exchange avenne bridge, with REIN
forced concrete retaining walls ex-
tending back several blocks. The ex.
pense OF such a course would be several
hundred thousand dollars, and might he
nearly a million: but until a detailed
estimate of the cost IL made the ex-
pense Is wholly eoniec,ural.
Widening OF streets and eliminating
grade crossings was considered by the
eititens' cor'mittee in charge OF ths
urion station p,o,ect more than year
ago. Owing TO the war, however, all
these plans we're abandoned. II Is
possible tha, agitation Tor the union

Major Waldorf-Astor. parliamentary
