Campaign to Increase Number in TTse Is Waged, "While Applica tions for Removal Are Entirely Ignored. True to predictions made prior to the last city election that Installation of water meters In accordance with the Daly city-wide water meter scheme would go ahead, regardless of the vote of the people, the City Water Bureau employes, acting either on their own volition or on orders from their supe riors, are hard at work drumming up meter business. Campaigning for meters Is being car ried on not only In the water office at the City Hall, but in the field by water Inspectors. Just what their object is or why they are following this course has not been disclosed. Instances have been called to public attention where inspectors have gone into residence sections and advised people to put in meters. Campaign Waged at City Hall. They have gone into places where they had no particular errand other than the imparting of information about the saving in bills possible by meters. At the water office at the City Hall clerks are campaigning among people who report at the office to pay bills or register complaints. In cases of pro tests pertaining to service the informa tion about the saving by use of meters s mentioned. "Why don t you put in a meter then and save money?" is the expression which has become common In the office. The campaigning is said to have been largely responsible for the S49 meter applications received at the water of fice since June 2, when the voters overwhelmingly downed a measure pro viding for the purchase and installa tion of 5000 meters. Applications for Removal Ignored. The Council by vote of three to two recently authorized Commissioner Daly to buy 850 meters for installation on these services. These installations will keep the Water Bureau busy for a while, but only for a while. By the time they are all Installed the appar ent plan Is to have a new batch of applications. It was the decision of tho Council when the 850 meters were authorized that meters should be removed upon application as well a Installed on that basis. . While installation has gone merrily ahead, applications for remo val of the meters have been ignored entirely. The Invariable report of those who want their meters taken out is the op posite to the reports being given out by the water people. The people want their meters taken out because they have to pay more for using less water than their neighbors who do not nave meters. JNlTDWSTATg- .
