NEW RESERVOIR
BEFORE VOTERS
HERE T0IVI0RR0W
t i
(Continued From Page One.)
a combined capacity of only 4,000,
000 gallons. The board of water com
missioners believes that the addi
tional ,storage facilities are needed
as a safety and insurance measure.
The water board Is authority for
the statement that construction oi
the reservoir will net increase the
tax levy or' the watei rates. The
bonds, the commissioners state, are
to be serviced from revenue provided
by the water rates.
Proposal Not New.
The water board has emphasized
that the proposal to construct an
additional reservoir Is not new. Since
the present water system was inau
gurated, the commissioners state,
every board, with Its engineers, has
recommended erection of another
reservoir and it had long been plan
ned to probeed with construction
after 1038 when bonds of the old
Fish lake line would be retired.
The proposition has come up at
this time because of the federal
grant of 965.250. If the gift la not
accepted, it has been pointed' out,
It will be lost for all time and
later the city will have to bear the
entire expense of building the reser
voir. It has been estimated by Robert
A. Duff, water board engineer, that
construction of the reservoir would
provide 60,600 hours of work during
the six winter months when employ
ment Is normally slaqk.
Old Line Useless
The old Fish lake pipe lino, which
has been used as a standby to keep
the present reservoirs full in case
of a brealc In the main line. Is de
scribed as practically useless. Con
structed of wood and built 25 years
ago, the Fish lake line. It Is said,
must soon be abandoned completely
as Its utility does not Justify the
excessive cost of repair and mainte
nance. -
The Oregon Insurance Rating bu
reau has Informed the water board
that If the old pipe line Is aban
doned without providing for addi
tional water storage, Insurance rates
on mercantile buildings nnd their
contents will be increased 4 per certt.
It Is pointed out that merchants
alone would save a substantial sum
of money annually by averting an
Increase In Insurance costs.
Consumption Huge.'
Statistics show that for a few min
utes last August 12 domestic con
sumption of water was at the dally
rate of 13.850,000 gallons while the
actual consumption that day waa
8,850,000 gallons,' or more than
twice the capacity of the existing
reservoirs. It la possible to consume
more than the reservoirs hold be
cause under ordinary circumstances
water is drawn directly from the
source through the pipe line. It is
only In emergercles, when the pipe
line Is closed for repairs, that the
reservoirs are tapped. .
It was emphasized by the water
board that if a serious break oc
curred in the pipe line the reservoirs
would be quickly depleted and rent
dents would suffer from a water
shortage, to say nothing of the
danger of a fire that could jiot be
checked because of lack of water.
Some time ago the water board
was authorized to issue bonds to
the extent , of 150.000. That issue,
which has never been sold t or uti
lized, will be cancelled upon ap
proval of the, 980,000 issue in the
special election tomorrow.
Form of Ballot.
The ballot on which Medford. citi
zens will vote tomorrow follows:
