WICH SUCCEEDS
WITH BIG WORK
IN DEP ARTMENT
Commissioner Spends More Money
Than in 1919. But Wages and
Material Were Higher.

Commissioner Frank WITCH, in
charge of the department Of streets
and public improvements, directed
the expenditure Of $44,140.53 in
carrying out the work Of his depart
ment during the year beginning
Dec. l, 1919, and ending Dec. 1.
1920, but not including paving laid,
sidewalks constructed and new
water mains and sewers.
The largest item in the bill of
expenditures is that Of $17,592.S0
for alley cleaning. Street cleaning
cost $6,7e9.77. 1t has been the
commissioners hobby to keep al
leys and streets clean and he has
met with unusual success in this
direction. Cooperation from the
public was slow in being offered.
but upon continual efforts being
put forth the citizens have finally
showed their appreciation and given
evidence Of their willingness to help
in keeping streets and alleys clean.

q considerable scale, 100 blocks in
all of dirt road bsyi:y been placed
in good condition. Other items,
from salaries to cutting of weeds
brought the total expenditures up
to the mark of $44,140.53. The ex-
penses for 1919 totaled $41,276.32.
However, the 1920 expenses were
necessarily larger on account Of
wages to street workers having
been raised from 421z to SO cents
an hour and the hire Of teams from
Sc to So per day. In fact, the re-
port shows that even then a con-
siderably greater amount Of work
was accomplished during 1920 in
proportion to all expense than in
1919.
In addition to the other work the
sum Of $2,763.55 was spent for
cleaning and repairing sewers and
basins; $3.50 for cleaning septic
tank and $2e9.91 for material and
repairs, totaling $3,2S3.46 for
sewer work.

During the present fiscal year
the water works department has
been compelled to practice the
strictests economy. No new Inn
provements were made outside Of
extensions to watermains and the
installation Of water meters. The
extensions to watermains were
made only in case Of urgent neces-
sity. ~ the price Of pipe was prac-
tically prohibitive.
All running repairs ON equip
ment were made - fast as the
need was apparent. All pumps and
boilers were kept mp to the high
est possible standard OF efficiency,
and tho filters 1t the reservoir were
given q general overhauling. It
was the intention of this depart
ment to make some improvements
at the reservoir during the past
year, but after the annual appro-
prtations were made for the de-
partment last spring, the price Of
coal Was raised 20 that It increased
our fuel bill in the water works
department nearly 5000 for the
year, and our outlay for chemicals
ct the reservoir increased over
$4,000 over the year before. This
necessitated the strictest economy
to live within the appropriation as
the law requires. =,
