The mayor maintained that 1t wouli
be criminal upon the part of the city
officials to sit idly by and see the
city water supply endangered without
issuing a warning to the people, and
asked anyone present who represented
manufacturing interests to express
their opinion Of the matter.
A representative of the Consumers
Light and Power company stated
that the company is using approx

day in manufacturing ice. that the

and divert 1t exclusively to domestic
purposes should such a contingency
arise.
The mayor stated that he had made
an investigation with the city engineer
and found that the water at the
city lake was within 16 inches of
being the lowest ever known In It's
history, and that the supply would
probably last from 40 to 90 days.
Rains in the meantime, he said, might
supply the creek at the intake on
Hickory with sufficient water TO
maintain a full flow through the line
and also to the surface flow into
the lake. However, he advised that

daily consumption of ice in this city

in any department Of the plant.
j. Il. McCarty, representing the
Wilmington Park Amusement com
pany, was present and stated that
he could reduce the consumption at
the park by half If necessary to do

the mayor in his effort to conserve
the water supply.
The mayor stated that he was
