Well Control Being
Studied At Capital
Continued from first page,

The plans contemplate a deep
we'll, which will draw water from
the strata now supplying the city
with water, it was brought out in
the discussion. The air-cOnditioning
system, according to figures cited,
will require from $4,000 to 10000
gallons of water daily which will
be circulated through the system
and then discharged into the city
storm sewer in LOOckerman Street.
Opposes Application
Mr.. Ward recommended that the
application be rejected, citing the
U. S. Geological Surveys report on
the drop in the water table and
recommendation that no greater de-
mand than necessary should be put
on the water supply of the entire
city.
He also explained that an alter
nate method of air-conditioning
would require the use of only ap-
prOximately $500 gallons daily, a
re-circulating method being en-
plOyed.
Representatives of the bank took
the view that the bank had the
right to drill a well on it's proper
ty and was petitioning council
only for authority to break through
the sidewalk. Other comments
were that the city would not pre-
vent people from surrounding the
city" with wells, outside the city
limits, that in any emergency the
bank would be fully cooperative
that the matter of the water level
is one that should command atten-
ton on a state basis in seeking a
solution, and that council could
not with fairness reject the appli-
cation considering other heavy
draws on water
Councilmen Raymond F. Book
w. G. Davis. Ralph R. Fischer, Ken.
meth o. Smith, Stanley Petty, and
Victor E. HOlpp voted for granting
of the application.
At the conclusion of the vote
Mayor Haman expressed the con
viction that the action set a prece
dent which could cause serious
consequences to Dover. He sale
that if he had had a vote, he would
/, have cast it in the negative, feel
ing that in view of the reported re
duction of the city water source i
was his duty to the community t
make every effort to conserve ant
protect it.
Council later decided to ask Cit!
Solicitor Hughes to study the righ
= of the body to pass an ordinance
to give the city control over th'
drilling of water wells within tn,
city.
F. Mayor Haman had said at on
I point that, with approval of tn
. bank application establishing
precedent, he would feel forced t
favor any future applications 70

Sen. Frear Disappointed
Over Senate Failure To
Approve Plans For
Post Office Set-Up

United States Senator J. Allen
Frear has expressed regret over
failure of the Senate to approve
plans for the Reorganization of the
Post Office Department, the Bureau
of Customs and the United States
Marshal service.
Resolutions disappearing the
proposals were passed by the Sen
ate last week over the objections
of MIR. Frear and "a number of his
colleagues.
The Delaware Senator has main
tanned that approval of the three
plans would, in large measure,
have removed the influence of pol
itics from appointments in the
three Government agencies.
In discussing the Senate action,
Senator Frear explained that one
Of the reasons mOtivating the de-
cision by the Senate may have been
lack of confidence in the Civil
Service Commission. Had the plans
been approved, the Commission
would have played major part in
the selection of Postmasters, Unit
ed States Marshals and Customs
officials.
The Senator indicated his own
dissatisfaction with the effect OF
Civil Service regulations on Della
wareans seeking Federal appoint
ments within the state. He express
ed the belief that when vacancies
for Government positions occur
within a state, that residents ol
that particular state should be Civ
en- primary consideration. "UnfOr
tunately," Mr.. FTear declared, "th'
regulations of the Civil Servic'
Commission do not always work il
that manner"

Massachusetts Lawmakers
May Repeal Own Pensions

BOSTON, Sept. 13 R.-The
Massachusetts, Legislature met to-
day in special session three days
before the State primaries, to vote
on repeal of their own pension
system.
The session was called by Demo-
cratic Gov. Paul A. Dever because
of what he termed public indig-
nation" at disclosures that an
amendment to Legislators Pension
Law, passed on the closing day of
the 1852 session last July, made
former Massachusetts Gov. James
M. Curley eligible for a $4,000 a
year pension. Mr.. Curley also was
four times mayor of Boston.
The amendment made him eligi-
bic for pension because he served
in the Legislature for two years
nearly a half century ago.
Gov. Dever, who at first refused
to call the repeal session, changed
his mind when the Republican
minority in the House neared the
quota of signatures on petitions
for the Legislature to call itself
into session.
