Falls Church 10 Give
Subdivisions Water
Al Least Until June y

SNSNO1AlCI0 VI LIlG f41lIldIlQdl6
Water Co. in Fairfax County had
some assurance today that Falls
Church will continue to supply
part of the Annandale system un-
It'll a 50.000-gallon standpipe is
in operation in about three weeks.
The city served notice yesterday
however. that it will attempt again
June % to turn off it's connection
with the Annandale system.
The city of Falls Church and
the company yesterday agreed to
conferences to iron out differences
over water system boundaries in
the Falls Church area. The agree
ment came in Fairfax Circuit
Court, after attorneys for the
water company withdrew it's name
as a plaintiff in a suit to force
Falls Church to continue to sup
ply water through a temporary
connection.
John Donovan, lawyer for An
nandale, Withdrew the company
from the suit. after a conference
in Judge Arthur Sinclair's cham
bers with LaRue Van Meter, Falls
Church city attorney. Mr.. Dono-
van stipulated the city must con-
Itinue to supply the Annandale
system. Falls Church gets its
water from the District through
a main across Chain Bridge.
Meanwhile. there were broac
hints by Annandale Water Co
officials Of sabotage to it's system
James McWhorter, Annandale
president. said, out of court yes
terday, that more than three times
the normal amount of water for
the company's 1000 Fairfax
County customers was drawn of
in one f1ve-day period.
The national average water
consumption per person, Mr.. Nc
Whorter said, is so gallons a day,
with 3.6 persons in the average
family-a total of about ITS gal
Ions day for each family. Some
Annandale household consumers
have used as much as $50 gallons
a day. however, he declared.
Attempt to Drain System.
This, following an appeal for
conservation during the shortage,
indicates some persons "have been
letting faucets run to drain the
system" Mr.. McWhorter said. He
said meter tarnpering" has
caused a further drain.
The new standpipe will give An
nandale subscribers a one-and-a-
half day reserve of water when it
is filled, Mr.. McWhorter said.
Voluntary restrictions on lawn
sprinkling and car-washing can
be lifted then, he added, but he
warned that the standpipe NAV
never fill up if some customers
keep wasting water.
During the arguments in court
Judge Sinclair commented that
no legal obligation has been
shown that Falls Church legally
has to supply water to AMMAN
DALE" But he added:
This case has gotten this court
INTO position it doesn't like to
be in. I wonder whether it can
morally let these people down
Now that the issue has been
forced, is there anything we can
do? ~
This all started out as a gen.
.lemen's agreement, apparently
don't know what's happened to
T. Il1ls case is going to involve
! little more Christianity than it
does law"
