New Switches
Will Speed Up
D. T.. B|ackouts
Is Will Be Installed
At Police Precincts
And Power Stations

The Commissioners have ordered
installation of special electric
switches in six police precinct
stations and in 10 power substations
to prevent delays in turning off
street lights in blackouts.
The project will cost approximately
$35, 900 and will be financed out of
the District blackout fund. The
Potomac Electric Power Co. will be
paid on the basis of actual cost of
labor, material and hauling, plus
Is per cent for experimenting and
engineering.
The Districts last blackout proved
unsatisfactory to civilian defense
officials, mainly because of delays in
darkening street lights.
-. Defense Officials Pleased.
Civilian defense officials hailed
the Commissioners action as an
answer to one blackout problem.
c. Melvin Sharpe, PEPCO spokes-
man ans civilian defense chief of
utilities, explained the switches will
be located in buildings where some
one will be on duty "a hours a day.
When the confidential yellow
signal is received at the police sta
tlons and the power substations, +"
ne said, someone will be at each
switch ready for the signal to black
out. When that comes, it is reason
able to believe that the city lights
Will be entirely blacked out within a
few seconds"
Priority Is Issued.
The Commissioners reported that
the War Production Board issued a
priority rating for the necessary ma
terials on April 8.
James H. Ferry of Pepco. said
preliminary work would begin at
once, but he was unable to predict
when the work would be finished.
According to Walter E. Kern. Dis
trlct electrical engineer, there are
1924 street lights which must be
turned off for blackouts. These now
are controlled by 157 switches To-
Gated at points throughout the city
Police carrying special keys are
charged with cutting them off.
Police Chief Edward J. Kelly said
this caused some delays in extin-
gushing the lights because the pa
trolmen in charge may be some dis
tance from the switch box when the
alarm comes. 1t has been necessary
IN some cases to have one policeman
handle more than one switch.

Legislation to End
Divided Control

The Senate District Committees
investigation of the local water sys-
tenn, begun early last year. was re-
sumed late yesterday, with the an
nouncement by Chairman McCarran
OF the selection of R. v. L. Wright
of the Reclamation Bureau as the
new committee investigator.
Frederick Weed, who began the
inquiry, filed preliminary report
last September, in which he recon-
mended centralized authority over
the management of the waterworks,
now divided between the Army
Engineer Corps and the District
Water Department.
Suggested Further Study.
He suggested also that further
study be given to the equities in
volved in furnishing free water to
all Federal agencies. The entire
cost of maintaining the water serv-
ice is met by the private consumers,
although the Government uses a
substantial part of the daily con-
sumption
Mr.. Weed left the committee in
December to return to Government
service, and Senator McCarran, who
obtained authority in January to
continue the inquiry. has been look
ing for an engineering consultant to
take up the work.
Mr.. Wright has been loaned to
the committee by the Reclamation
Bureau. A native of Virginia, he
studied mechanical engineering at
the University of Maryland, and has
had 20 years of experience in the
organization, financing and man.
'agement of both municipal and pri-
vate utilities.
Seeks Economies.
Senator McCarran launched the
investigation at time when Dis
trict officials feared an increase in
rates to private consumers might be
necessary to finance large extensions
to the water system. Anxious to
avoid placing a heavier burden on
local water users, Senator McCarran
began search for economies in the
operation of the system.
The preliminary report called at
tention to wastage of water in Gov
ernment buildings, as we'll as leak
age in the distribution system.
Senator McCarran has made
known his intention of drafting leg
islation when the survey is COM
pleted to end the division of control
between the Army Engineer Corps
and the District Government.
