program calculated to vastly i'm
prove and modernize the system.
Tacoma, as modern American
cities go, is a tremendous user OF
water, not only domestically but
industrially. Extensive water re-
sources coupled with electric power
rates that for years have provided
a national leadership. have attract
ed to Tacoma types of industries
which use huge daily blocks of
both power and bulk water. II Is
the water utility's function to see
to it that not only are the city's
$4,000 homes supplied with pure
water in ample quantities, but that
the industries depending upon wat
er are kept in operation.
Special Industrial Rates
One single plant has contract
with the city under which, eventu-
ally, it may call upon the city for
80 million gallons of water daily
Tacoma is one of few cities that
offer special rates to industries re-
curing large blocks Of water de-
livered at one point continuously.
Accordingly the Tacoma system,
now pulling water of finest quail
ty from two differnt main sources,
is developed today on a supply
basis of more than 100 million
gallons daily.
Quoting Supt kunigk: Con
struction of 25.3 miles of perma-
nent pipe line gravity supply will
eliminate many hazards in opera
tior and will eliminate the main
tenance expense of the wood stave
pipe line of the original Green riv-
Or line.

on New York University's grid
team, asked his student supporters
to withdraw their plans for a mass
strike if athletic officials refused
the University of Missouri, in Co
lumbia, Mo-, on November 2.
It is believed that university Of
fcials used pressure on Bates to
get him to issue his statement ask
ing the students to drop their
strike plans. Bates insists that he
acted on his own responsibility.
The plans for the strike were
originated by the Negro Culture
Group of the university, which en-
listed the aid Of nineteen campus
fraternities and academic organiza-
tions and secured $500 student sig
natures to a petition asking that
Bates be permitted to play against
