PINCHOT WARNS HIS NAMESAKE

Harrisburg, Pa -- (UP) - Gov ernor Clifford Pinchot of Pennsyl- vania took time off from his ex- ecutive duties to write Q namesake of his, Pinchot Phoenix, Steelton. aged nine. about the dangers CT playing in the streets. tf
 The letter followed shortly after the boy had been struck. but not injured, by an automobile.
 "I see in the paper that while you were playing in the middle Of the street, an automobile struck you and they took you to tho hos pital. was glad to read. too. that you were not hurt. only badly scared. the governor wrote his namesake.
 "But even if you are only nine: there is no reason why you should not be more careful. Don't play where an automobile can hit you. No child should. Don't cross the street without looking both ways. When you are going to and from school do what the. school patrol tells you. Pay attention to what your teacher says about safety. And boys and girls who walk on country roads should walk against traffic, not with 1t. Only men and women 'sot in their ways walk with traffic. And that Is very dangerous thing to do.
 All good wishes to you, but hope I shall not again see In the paper that my namesake got hit because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time."

These last two systems will eventually work into supply for the westerly por- ton of West Haven, the town of Milford and the town of Orange.
 Tt has been necessary to cons struct distributing reservoir which will act as a reserve on the North Branford pipe fine and also limit the hydraulic grade for the central part of the water distribu- ton system.
 "There has been expended on this work about seven million dol lars. It's need has been shown dur ing the last three years. In 1930- 1881 restrictions were necessary in the use of water and water fani- inc barely averted. In 1882 use was made of the new supply, with out which an acute shortage would have existed throughout the terri tory served. The water supply Is now developed into, a unified sys- tenn with ample storage to protect its patrons and assure ample pro- lection for all domestic and fire protection needs"
