This homely practice pictures the solution of George M. Wisner, con- sulting engineer for the sanitary district of Chicago, for the contro-| versy over the city’s intake of lake! water to carry of its sewage. | Wisner knows the sanitagy dis- trict and its problem. As a’ youth | just out of engineering school in| 1892 he helped turn up the mrst shovelful of dirt for the canal which connects Lake Michigan with‘ the Illinois River and reverses the| flow of the Chicago River. “Just vary the flashboards on the! milldam into larger regulating works | above Niagara Falls and: there'll be no more complaint of low water,” declares Wisner. Lowers Lake Levels “Here is the situation today. Chi- cago is taking about 10,000 cubic | feet of water per second. It has} become a necessity for the city’s health. “Sewage disposal plants are op- erating and being enlarged, but they cannot meet the need entirely for years. Unless Chicago takes this ter, the river will carry its waste into the lake and pollute the drink- ing water supply. s diversion at Chicago redu- | ces by about 5 per cent the average flow over Niagara Falls. lowered the average level. of Lakes Michigan and Huron, also by about 5 inches. The principal protest has come from the Niagara power inter- ests, C would use this water to turn tur- | bines. | WEBB B “Forty Years In B i marck” OTHERS | MAY SALE OF uslins tegular values to $2.48 Sateen.

Bixby, retired chief of engineers of the army, testified recently that the proposal was “an experiment well worth trying out.’ Chicago's taking of lake water is not only essential at present for health, according to the sanitary | district, but it will be virtually a necessity for the realization of the lnkes-to-the gulf waterway. The sanitary canal, maintained as a deep ‘channel, is an indispensable link in the chain, “The effect on navigation is that lake — be cannot load quite so! heavily, each inch subtracted from harbor depth meaning a loss of | about 100 tons of cargo from a big | freighter. | “Regulating works which can be | placed in the river opposite Buffalo | will increase the year-round ° level | navigation ang give more water for | power. The scenic grandeur’ of | N a Falls would not be impair- | ed in the slightest. | Chicago ‘Will Pay | “Chicago is ready to pay all the bills and guarantee satisfaction. The works would cost about $2,500,000, with about $50,000 a year for main- tenance, a reasonable sum to save the $100,000,000 investment in the sanitary canal.” | Lake Erie would become a great millpond under~ this arrangement. The lukes are at their highest about June and July after the spring| rains, and lowest about February. | The regulating works would be closed every day, affecting a max- imum reduction of flow of 40,000° cubic feet per second. They would be thrown wide open in ‘December, removing obstructions during the low stage. * Chicago's tentative plan, which would be executed by army engi- neers, provides for a wall like a breakwater three-quarters of a mile long in the middle of Niagara River parallel to the current. son- like gates would be floated across the channel on one side and sunk. Thijs would effectively constrict the outlet from Lake Erie. Valves in the gates would permit vatious degrees of flow. In winter the. gates could be-entirely removed. ‘As a precaution against ice jams, “RADIO GRADIO” The hurdy-gurdy, for generations the curbstone favorite of children, threatens to pass.
