 However, the city has on hand about 1,400 feet of cast iron pipe which Is to be laid near the tunnel already built between Watertown and the Morris reservoirs. This work will not be delayed, but will proceed immediately.
 The city also has an order await ing fulfillment. by the U. s. Cast Iron Pipe Company for cast iron pipe to be used on the Waterbury end of the line. Ordinarily this order could be filled and shipment made within two weeks. but 1t is possible that defense orders may delay 1t. This pipe is expected to be shipped from the company'S Burlington, N. J., plant.
 Officials in both the mayors and city engineers office stressed the fact taht necessary operations in connection with the actual laying of the pipe itself are now going on and must be taken care of before any other work may proceed.
 City Engineer Charles Root said that if the manner in which the Lock Pipe Company handled re- cent job in Hartford is any criter- ion Waterbury will be amazed at the speed and thoroughness with which the new pipe line from Morris goes down.
