at which many motorists have come
to grief in the past two weeks. Is on

WATER SHORTAGE
HITS four CITIES
Canning Plants Closed at
Frederick, Nd, and School

Special Dispatch to The Star.
FREDERICK, Md, September s.
This city, Middletown. Brunswick,
Thurmont and Emmitsburg are facing
q serious water shortage. In Fred
erick consulting engineer of
Baltimore. ]. d. Requardt, has been
called into conference with City Engi-
neer Emory c. Crum.
In Middletown large corn canning
plant has been compelled to suspend
operation and the public school of
the town closed its doors for a week
because of inability to obtain suffi-
Cient water.
At a special meeting of the citizens
last night plans were made for an
election on a bond issue of 10000
for increasing the water supply. In
the event the bond, issue is ratified
eight additional springs will be added
to the water system.
Low Streams Hit Farms.
Streams throughout the county are
SO low that in many instances farm
ers are compelled to drive their stock
long distances for water. In most of
the towns the only available source of
water is that of cisterns and wells
on private property. In Middletown
yesterday hundreds of tons of corn
was saved at the local canning fac
tory by the use Of water from two
wells on private property.
In Brunswick the situation has
been alarming for 10 days. Springs
in Virginia. from which the water is
conveyed in pipes across the Potomac
River to Brunswick have failed en-
tirely, and the town is dependent
upon a large artesian we'll a short
distance out. A serious fire in either
PF-,iT -inl-
prove disastrous.
notwithstanding the fact that a
new reservoir with capacity of
50,000,000 gallons was recently COM
pleted at Fishing Creek, II miles
northwest Of Frederick, and added to
the city's water supply the situation
Is worse than for the past 10 years.
Large local canning factories have
been compelled to suspend operations
on the account of the low water pres
sure. Approximately 500, 900 gallons
more water is being used each day in
Frederick than the mountain streams,
which supply the town produce, this
IS a serious drain on the storage
reservoir. which has shrunk 10000,
600 gallons in the last two weeks.
So serious was the situation yester-
day that a steam fire engine was used
TO pump water from a mountain
stream into the city mains. This
method has only been resorted to in
the past during periods Of extreme
shortage of water.
The water situation is also serious
in Virginia and West Virginia adjoin-
ing the Maryland line. In some Vir-
ginia towns the authorities have is
sued proclamations preventing the
use of water after a certain hour in
garages and swimming pools.
