E. Koon announced yesterday while on an inspection tour of the new intake system. Temperature comparisons made on comparatively hot days last month showed the Stayton island water giving a 58-degree read ing on the thermometer and the Willamette supply, on the same day, 68 degrees. Cold as it flows from the un derground Infiltration galleries, tbe Stayton island water appar ently cools still further In flow ing down the gravity pipeline to Salem, the engineer said.

Shallow Mains to Cause Some Heating Temperature of the new water supply, as of the old, at con sumers' faucets, however, may be higher than at the pipeline outlets because of shallow water mains in some locations.
