Accomplish Big Job As indicated by the report, a vast amount of work was accomplished. which is to be resumed and extended next year when the main channel opening to permit the free flow of water is completed. The Chicago Sanitary district workers have been doing- the channeling job. After discontinuing the ·dynamit ing operations some time ago, they continued their · effort~, employing the drag-like method until zero weather halted operations. It was announced at the meeting Monday evening, that the sanitary district's recent curtailment of operations had extended to the work it was doing in the North Mosquito Abatement district , and that there would be no more work on the channel this winter. Would Alter Disrict Plans It is hoped, however, that the plans of the Sanitary district may be altered ~ufficiently to permit completion of thr drainage work to the County line or at least to Dundee road. The opening of this channel is the very foundation of the Mosquito Abatement district work If it can be completed this . winter, it will not only carry off the spring flood water, but will enable the mosquito fighters to get an early start on operations next year.
