Sought by Byrd and Smith

ting the plant to dump its eff
fluent into Talahalla creek.
On the basis of this decision
a delayed injunction granted at
Meridian September 2lst by act
ing Chancellor T. Y. Miniece will
become effective tomorrow, De-

However, the Masonite Cor

New Drainage Canal Culveris May
Help Control Flooding In Easilawn

The Federal government has
agreed to pay for the instaisa-
ton of concrete box culverts in
the Eastlawn drainage canal at
Polk and Lincoln avenues in
stead of the present inadequate
pipe culverts, Mayor John r..
Watts announced this week.
Legal advertisement for con-
tractors bids on this work is
carried in this issue of the Chron-
icle-Star and Advertiser.
In addition, Mayor Watts SAID,
the government has also agreed
to spend approximately $4,000
for cleaning the weed and tree
choked drainage ditch.
The small pipe c~ulverts under
Polk and Lincoln avenue have
proved completely inadequate
during heavy rains when the Gu
nal has filled with water and
have acted as dams, backing up
the flow of water in the canal
and resulting in the flooding OF
a large part of the Eastlawn Sec
ton.
Cleaning of the canal and in
stallat,on of the new large box
culverts will enable the water
to flow unimpeded and it is be-
lieved will eliminate to a large
extent the flooding of the area.
The government has Use
agreed to handle the expenses
of repairing the faulty sewers
in the Eastlawn section. Exam
ination has shown that the sew
er lines section are in many
instances improperly joined,
which results in a large amount
Of sand and trash filtering into
the line. This condition clogs
the line as well as impairs the
proper operation of the city sew
age disposal plant.
The work will be paid for
through the Federal Public IIous-
ing Authority. II is estimated
that installation Of the culverts
will cost approximately $4,000,
and repairs to the sewer line
approximately $1,000
The city has agreed to take
over maintenance of the sewer
system after the contract for re-
pairs has been let, Mayor Watts
said.
