L. McCleary, man ager of the Dallas water com mission. The manager this week issued a statement saying that It Is time that Dallas residents start ed thinking of building a new reservoir. Water pressure drops to 65 pounds in the daytime, even in the winter months when no de mands for sprinkling and irriga tion are made. With normal use by the 1681 water customers three fire hoses running con tinuously could drain the two small present reservoirs In about five or six hours, McCleary said. A new reservoir would allow the system to hold water that ordinarily runs out of the over flowing reservoirs during the night when demand is not so heavy. The greater capacity would be reflected in lower fire insurance rates in the city. In summer months the water level often drops to dangerously low levels.
