Civilians Oppose Building Bur- lington Tunnel at This Time The public apparently feels but little interest in the development of the city by of a Burlington tunnel at a cost of about $325,000, the public meeting last night only a small number was present. Chairman O. F. Curtis de- plored the fact that sa few take an interest in the matter, but explained that the manutacturers were holding a private meeting of their own to de- termine what action they would favor. Those present, however, opposed building the tunnel unless absolutely necessary for manufacturing purposes. Among those present at the meeting wer Alderman O. F. Curtis, City Engineer W. H. Hall, P. J. Egan, T. IL Kehoe, W. B. Rossberg, W. L. Damon, George Wells, A. Jichstaedt, Charles May, W. C. Wall, B. W. Schultz, A. M. Paonessa, Thomas Wilbor, A. Gorbach, W. H. Cadwell, George M. Landers, P. S. McMahon, A. J. Sloper and Harold T. Sloper. Much Water Wasted. W. B. Rossberg explained the pro- posed Burlington tunnel and when it was explained by P. J. Egan that the city now has a year's supply of water on hand, P. 8. McMahon recommended that the clty economize at this time and not spend too much money. W. H Cadwell said he saw a milllon gallons of water overflowing and going to waste at the Whigville reservoir within the past 30 days. If this could be con- served it would be very valuable. Mr. Sloper said he *‘eventually favors’ ad- ditional water starage capacity for the city, but he does not think there is any danger of the city losing its rights. He favored, however, getting an opinion from the manufacturers, who are most vitally interested, water supply the construction for at Sloper said the figure of $300,000 tis nat a fair one, as he has been told that the real cost would be nearer $700,000 or a million. Mr. Schultz favored stopping wast- age and possibly enlarging the stor- age capaclty, perhaps by raising the dam at Shuttle Meadow. TUnless the manufacturers want the tunnel built, he said, he favored holding up any expenditure until after the war, when conditions may be more normal Mr. Hall explained that the wastage at Whigville is about 400,000 gallons every 24 hours. Mr. Rossberg said it is not possible to raise the dam at Shuttle Meadow very much more. Expenses on Upper Burlington.
