PURE WATER WILL BRING BUSINESS
 TO LOCATE HIRE

That a sufficient supply of pure fresh water will be a wonderful asset to the city of Phoenix in obtaining new industries, is the opinion of City Man ager Thompson.
 In commenting yesterday on the pro- posed new water system, upon which the taxpayers of the city will have an opportunity to place the stamp of their approval the 26th of this month, the city manager called attention to the fact that one of the reasons for the Goodyear people locating a gigantic factory in Los Angeles was that it was possible to secure an adequate supply of fresh water
 At the time it was decided to locate the plant in Los Angeles, one of the heads of the company had the follow ing to say anent the companys req sons for picking that city: ''When we came to survey the coast. as we did for six weeks with skilled men, we found that Los Angeles gave us the cheapest fuel on the coast. We found that Los Angeles had the cheapest power on the Pacific Coast where used in large quantities. We found that Los Angeles had the only supply of fresh water suf-

others of the many novels from the pen of Amelia E. Barr were found upon the book shelves of nearly every reader of current fiction. Perhaps they would be found nowadays in the at tics of a majority of long occupied homes, among the discarded books from frequently weeded shelves. Poss- ibly there still are calls for the Barr novels at circulating libraries, but the name of the author of more than half hundred novels. at least thirty of which were widely read, hardly is known by readers under 30 years old who pride themselves upon being well posted about writers of fiction.
 A novelist nowadays earns a living more easily by mediocre work than was the case in preceding generations, but in a period of much writing and many new books there is smaller prob ability of winning a reputation which outlasts m average life. Many writers of fiction live to see their books go out of fashion, their first better known than later ones, and of novelists llv- ing however great" in the estimation of responsive youthful readers, is there one of whom a critic safely might say: The future will know him as well as he is known at present?
 Some of the most widely read nov elists of the present time are topical writers. It is not within the bounds of probability that many of those who rely upon current events for their ma terial will write anything which will
 be read widely one hundred years after the period of the life of the writer. It is not easy to think of one | of the popular novelists of the time for whom century of fame would be predicted by any reflecting critic of | books.

 The city manager is confident that if the matter is properly brought before the taxpayers of the city, the bonds will be approved by an overwhelming majority. The fact that it is impos- sible for a manufacturing plant to Op- crate here without having it's boilers overhauled or replaced every year is a serious handicap to the expansion ot the city. He believes that with this deterrent influence alleviated, it will be but question of a short time when industries will be turning their eyes towards Phoenix.
 In the question of the present ex- pense to which the people of Phoenix are subjected in purchasing water softeners, the manager is of the opin- ion that not tons, but literally carloads of rainwater crystals and other soft eners are used here each year. The actual cost to the people of Phoenix foi these commodities can be reckoned in thousands.
 Officials who are interested in see- ing Phoenix going ahead and being prepared in case outside industries do turn their eyes to Phoenix are of the opinion that if the cost of water soft eners, the annual plumbers bills, the excess fire insurance premiums, and the cost of maintaining an outgrown waterworks were added together, to- gether with the cost of the city's con- stant fight to keep it's water mains in repair, the total would far exceed any taxpayers' share of the interest on the bonds.
 The pamphlet which has been issued by the city commission for the edi- fication of the taxpayers regarding the proposed new water system has widely circulated about the city. The pam phlets are not for the use of the tax pavers only. but anyone interested may
