order of the War Industries Board
hars the use of iron and steel pipes
for sanitary purposes underground.
The place to bury metal, it says in
effect, is to bury it in an enemy

Demonstration that iron. while
highly essential in war. was non
essential as drain pipe, preceded the
governments order. Credit for the
methods of installation that won the
approval of officials goes to young

Wyatt foresaw year ago the war

Gus to leaks and to the penetration
of tree roots. Vitrifed pipe, long a
staple material for sewers, attracted
him because of the fact that it could
not be corroded and was not subject
to electrolysis But vitrified pipe
was banned in many cities for build
ing drains because Of the unsatisfac-
tory character Of the joint.
