Taklng up the ilrst paragraph of Mr. Wyllle's letter, he says in part: “Nor is our water pressure what it should he with our limited are fighting sp- paratus." These words by themselves are a complaint against the water pressure and against the fire fighting apparatus. {or I assume that Mr. Wyl< lie does not want more fighting sp- naratus with the low water pressure that he complains or. The (acts are no anyone who will investigate them. "that neither is the water pressure lower nor the are fighting apparatus less than in the past. It to true that whlle the new pumps were being In- stalled conditions arose which made the pressure low and to everyone. an- noying. ‘Slnce the new pumps have been installed. 600 gallons of water per minute can be pumped as against 200 gallons per minute with the old pumps.

AI a matter 0! in- formation. it requires approximately 15.000 kilowatts per month to pump our water. The would-be purchaser would have charged for this about 4 cents per kilowatt. and it would have met the village about $7.000 per year. and in addition to thll expense. the village would have bad to Mrs ‘two or ‘three men to take care of the pumps. Had we sold the plant, in addition to the above expense. the village would have been obliged to expend over ".000 to change the eyatem of pump- in: from steam to electricity. The presrnt new pumping system in elec‘ tricniiy equipped. The present re (-Hpis from the water department would have been barely audlclent to pay {or the current alone. " Their elm-is resulted in the present :electrlc light plant. It was their oplu‘ jion that time would vindicate their judgment. There can be no question about the economical operation of the plant. its efliciency in being demon: “rated more every day. it in true that objections arose which the board did not and could not foresee, but they are being corrected.
