cussing the necessity for speedy con-
struction of the new conduit.

DR.. Fowler. And thore is no doubt
that the danger Of disease spreading

The health officers attention was
called to the fact that the Lydecker
tunnel, which carries all of the city's
water from the conduit above George
town to the filtration plant on LIST street,
cannot be inspected. much less repaired,
until the new conduit from Great Falls
