$250,0)0 R.F.C. LOAN
FOR WATER SOUGHT.
Suburban Commission Would
Build New Station and
Auxiliary Line.
BY GEORGE PORTER.

An application for $250,0OO loan
to build a 10000, ,00O-gallon pumping
station at Burnt Mills and a 2-mile
pipe line from the Patuxent River to
the headwaters of the Northwest
Branch has been filed with the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation by the
Washington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission. officials of the commission an
nounced today.
The application requests that the
money be loaned at Az per cent in
terest and be repaid in 20 years.
If granted, this loan would permit
the sanitary commission to carry out a
project that has been studied for years;
that is, supplement its present water
supply from the Northwest Branch with
Patuxent River water.
Would Keep d. C. Connection.
The 2-mile auxiliary pipe line and
small pumping station required to di-
vert water from the PatuXent into the
Northwest Branch would be located
near the Ellicott City road in upper
Montgomery County.
The new pumping station at Burnt
Mills would supply suburban Mont
gomery and Prince Georges Counties
under all normal conditions, T. Howard
Duckett, chairman of the commission,
said. Connections would be maintained
with the Washington system, however,
for use in emergencies, he said.
Having a 100000 gallons a-day
capacity, it would nearly triple the
present plants capacity of 100000
gallons. The record consumption in
the sanitary district is 100000 gal
Ions in single day, established during
the abnorrally hot last week of August
of this year.
Cost Set at s272,000.
The cost of the new plant, which
would be equipped with the most mod
River "cut off" would be Approximately
S272 900. according to an engineering
estimate by Robert B. Morse. chief
engineer of the commission.
The difference between this figure
and the amount Of the loan. if granted,
would be obtained from the commits
sions funds.
In addition to enabling the commits
sion to carry out at once project that
must eventually be built, a considerable
number of men will be given employ
ment if the loan is granted, Mr.. Duck
ett pointed out.
Further Data Prepared.
Further engineering data requested
by the Reconstruction Finance Corpo-
ration is being. compiled by Mr.. Morse
and will be filed as supplement to
the application for the loan as soon
as available.
The project was given serious con-
siderat.on during the drought of 1890
but the unfavorable condition Of the
bond market caused the commission to
indefinitely abandon its plans.
Believing the market has recently i'm
proved the commission applied to the
Maryland Public Service Commission
last week for permission to float a
5000 900 bond issue to meet the more
pressing demands for water and sewer
extensions. This application will be
acted upon next month,

 Petrolle starts his 27th year Jam uary 10 at time that financial doctors tell us cant be anything but bullish. It looks like a good time to get in on Petrolle pfd.
 Brouilard has punch, but he lacks experience. Petrolle pfd is high with both. Continuing the comparison. Brouillard showed once that his fighting spirit is slightly bearish. I saw him beg a referee four or five times to dis winging him on the pants.
 You cant find that in Petrole. His record indicates that when he's in there, he stays to fight it out.

 Petrolle was paying big divi- dends in the lightweight ranks q few years ago until that 34-second knockout at the hands of King Tut. Billy got married then and the depression set in.
 The combination of married life and ring idleness put Petrolle dangerously close to the edge. He was even reading up on the bank. ruptcy laws when the ring beck. oned him again. His answer was a decisive win over Canzoneri ir 10 rounds. Two months later McLarnin was one of his victims in the most surprising deal pulled on the flstic market in 1880.
