THE VOLUME 53 McHENRY. ILLINOIS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1927. No. 15 DAM AGREEMENT NOip "NEAR" DAILIES PUBLISH ERRONEOUS REPORTS Major P. W Frett Issue* Statement Thaatt HB e Bw Been Misquoted Following a meeting held Sunday afternoon in a tent, just outside of the city of Antioch, at which time the question of locating another dam in the Fox River was discussed, the Chicago Tribune and the Waukegan Daily Sun came out the next day with news stories, stating that an agreement was near in the Lake County dam controversy and that peace was in sight or the Fox River dam. Before going any further let us inform our readers that from ail the information this newspaper can gain there has been no compromise and no talk of a settlement except by a few who may have talked to newspaper reporters for the fake of spreading some propaganda. In one paragraph in the, Tribune's story, Mayor Peter W. Frett of McHenry is accused of being satisfied with the prospects for his city, assuming that the stored water will be fed into the lakes and channel during the dry periods. The stored water re-1 ferred to was mentioned in a talk by Joseph C. James of Antioch, who said: "Building of a dam will create a reservoir 65,000 acres In area above .Pistakee Lake, and with the electric-' ally controlled dam in place, this j reserve could be used to maintain the j levels in the.lower lakes of the chain." j FIRE DEPARTMENT ANSWERS TWO CALLS Explosion of Launch Engine Results In Serious Damage at H. G. Saal Home The McHenry fire department was called to the residence of H. G. Saal at Pistakee Bay last Friday niorning to extinguish a fire in the boat house caused by an explosion in the launch. The alarm came in about 9 o'clock and the firemen lost no time in-getting to the scene of the fire, although when they arrived the launch was practically ruined and the boat house so nearly destroyed that it is beyond repair and it will be necessary to build a new one. The fire was caused by an explosion of the engine as Mr. Saal was endeavoring to start the launch, immediately enveloping the boat in BIG RIVER BRIDGE NEARS COMPLETION SLAB COMPLETED ON THE EAST SIDE Pouring of Cement on Route 61 Near Ringwood Begins--Will Lay V Six Miles This Year Road work in this locality is progressing nicely with favorable weather conditions existing for some time, making it much easier for the work to be accomplished. ^E.
