3 or 4 Breaks Occur Every Day
In.Woter System, Official Says

Although q rash Of water main
breaks has come to public notice
recently. this is old stuff to the
District Water Department. Three
or four breaks in the water system
occur every day. These are either
in the mains themselves or in
the service pipes leading into
buildings.
The latest to come to public
attention occurred yesterday. This
was water leakage in the 1900
block of Park road NV. near
the Shrine of the Sacred Heart.
But it appeared to be but a minor
bubbling up of water from the
street pavement.
The department put up a traffic
barrier and prepared to get down
to the real cause of the break.
Thousand Breaks . Year.
Roy L. Orndorff, assistant SUI
perintendent Of the Water Divi-
sion, yesterday placed the number
of breaks in the water supply at
/ 900 a year. About q fourth of
them are in the water mains for
which the District Government is
responsible. he said. But the vast
majority are in the service pipes
that lead into buildings. A pri-
vate plumber has to repair these
at the householder's expense.
Actual breaks in the water mains
of consequence number are only
about 100 annually.
These water main breaks do
not mean that the Districts sys-
tenn Is going to pot. however. For
Mr.. Orndorff said that compare
lively the Districts water mains
are in much better shape than the
sewer mains, which also have
jumped into the news.
"Our greatest flood Of leaks Of
all kinds comes about November, !,
when the water has cooled OF and
the temperature Of the pipes goes
down. Mr.. Orndorff explained.

girl out of q water filled gravel
pit near her home and saved her
life.
The child, Nancy Green Of II

screams.
The sailor, Paul A. Tolson, 20

broke through the crowd of bath
ers who stood staring at the spot
where Nancy had gone down.

Mr.. Tolson plunged into the
12-foot hole. He felt the child's
dress on his leg, grabbed her and
pulled her out. She had been
under water for almost four min
utes and was unconscious.
Mr.. Tolson applied artificial
respiration. Then Hank Goldman,

Record Budget
Request Ready
For City Heads
$l90 Million Figure
Moy Be Cut After
Hearings Are Held

The District Budget ONCE viii
announce tomorrow the estimated
financial needs of the city gov
ernment departments for fiscal
1854.
The estimates have been re-
ported to approach an all-time
high Of about $3.50 million. This
amount would be nearly $25 mil
lion more than the departmental
estimates for 1858, and over $50
million more than Congress actu-
ALLY appropriated.
The estimates will hardly be
announced before the Commis-
lSioners begin their annual chore
Of welding the ak on the figures.
The city heads have scheduled a
hearing for Tuesday with the de-
ipartment chiefs. 1t will begin as
soon as the Commissioners board
meeting is over. 1t will be closed
to the public.
Public Hearing Set.
On August 4, the citizenry gets
a chance to express it's views in a
public hearing beginning at 10
am. in the District Building
Board Room. In the meantime
the city governments various adj
visory committees will be submit-
ting their reports on the new
| figures.
The unprecedentedly high fig
ure has been set despite Budget
Officer Walter L. Fowler's order
last month limiting the depart
ment estimates on operating ex-
penses to increases Of no more
than five per cent over the Sem
! ate-approved figure of $135 mil.
lion.
While it was reported that the
agency chiefs abided by the limi-
tation on operations costs, they
ran rampant in the field of capi-
tai outlay. These are the ex.
penSes for new construction.
The five per cent ceiling was
fixed in the interests of speed.
The Federal Budget Bureau or
dered District officials to submit
the 1854 District budget ahead of
time this year. Accordingly Mr..
Fowler told the District depart
ment heads to have their esti-
mates prepared by July /.
i The limitation was confined to
operating expenses because these
accounts take longer to analyze
than the capital expense accounts.
Donohue Defends Limit.
4 On his weekly radio broadcast
last night, Commissioner F. Joseph
Donohue defended the per cent
Limitation. and reiterated his
often-made criticism of Congress
for cutting the District budget.
/. He referred particularly to a
one-third cut in the Veterans
Service Center budget, which he
said would force laying of 10
employees, and to a $4,000 cut in
the street-lighting fund which he
said would result in decreased
lighting on the streets.
When the cutting process on
the 1853 budget gets under way.
Ithe Commissioners are expected to
, show little quater. They Topped
Ioff $50 million from the depart
mental estimates for the 1853
, budget.

Interest in water mains. And the

pressure feeder main, 10 feet below

trance, was the worst in the city's
history. For it left nearly a third
Iof the city without water for seven
hours.
In the older sections OF the city.
Mr.. Orndorff pointed out. some of
the water mains are almost 100
years old. Most Of the George
town mains were laid in 1859, he
said. This is the oldest part Of
Washington.
StiIl Best Type.
But at that, Mr.. Orndorff de-
clared, the old cast iron pipes
used early in the system are still
the best type for water mains that
can be found.
The District has an annual re-
placement program for water lines.
AT a cost Of about 100000 an
nually about four or five miles
OF water mains are replased.
The Water Department takes

work. The depart
ment Is notified well in advance

ables it to dig down in the old
street and make repairs or changes

Freezer Makers Brainchild.
Despite what a food club rep
resentative may produce in the
way Of figures-and their figures
are most persuasive-it is mathe-
matically impossible for a city
ldweller to reduce his food budget
by IS per cent through member
ship in a plan. According to a
reputable survey. it is out Of the
question for a city family to pay
for it's home freezer through food
plan savings, provided businesslike
accounting methods are used to
keep track of costs.
The food club plans apparently
got started as the brain child OF
la Midwestern freezer manufac-
turer. But they came to full
flower on the West Coast about
"a year ago. In Los Angeles
County, Calf, they still are on
the rampage, with an estimated
|12O plans operating there. In
the San Francisco Bay area, there
are believed to be SIS plans. with
% of them in Oakland, a city half
the size of Washington.
Universally, the emergence OF
the food clubs has given Better
Business Bureaus a headache the
like of which they have never ex-
Iperienced before. Wherever the
plans have taken hold, sharpies
with high-pressure sales methods
and low-pressure ethics have
