S. column of comment A Wise and Otherwise Deer Creek: Oddi and Ends With the Deer Creek Project reaching a stage where it will either be built, or killed for aaiother 50 years, it is interesting to hear the sideline discussion and the reactions from those who are for it or very much against it. For instance, one prominent water user heard discussing it was gestulating violently and talking in a high pitched voice to a farmer across the fence, Why I tell you," he said all of our water which we have had from Provo River for many years will be kept in the reservoir. I dont know how they can separate if when that dam is put it. It w'll stop all the water from coming down the river. They are going to steal all our rights. On t! e other haiud the other fel- equally insistent that no rights will be taken and that water for the old users could be turned' out of the reservoir just as easily as the new water brought from the Duchesne and Weber Rivers. The argument waxed rather warm with nothing finally decided. low, , is And then therea the nervous lady in Provo who wants to know if the government will insure that the dam will not break and flo 1 out Provo City. Contrasted to her is the man on Provo Bench who expecta to sell his land for building lots to nervous Provcr people who will be afraid to stay in that city when the goes to prove its that blows nobody AU of which an ill wind good. By Emery McKellip President Town Board of Orem About twenty years ago wliem Orems water system was installed the founders provided the best they knew with the means they had at their command. All the wood stave lines have been reby cast placed iron and a considerable portion of the vitrified clay lines at our I springs have al- I so been replaced ' by iron. We still have about seven ." thousand feet of I twelve inch vit- 1 rified clay flow Pis t hue between our .storage tank and springs which is unsatisfac-factorvery When I lour original sys tem was install-Emtr- y McKtlii had an ave(j erage flow of less thain three hundred gallons per ii.inute, while St the present time we have one thousand gallons per minute. Capacity Inadequate The capacity of the line is entirely inadequate and the material is antiquated and very unsatisfactory. I wish to enumerate some of the faults of this flow line. First, it has a capacity of about six hundred gallons per minute yet we have a discharge of one thousand ' from our gallons per minute springs. A large percentage of this flow is lost between our storage tank and springs due to the porous condition of the material. Second: It permits roots Pom trees and shrubs to penetrate the joints and reduce the flow some times as much as ninety per cent. Third: After leaving the springs area it follows the course of the y old Blue Cliff and lies along the big cliff and rock slide above Olmstead and below the Utah Power aind Light flume. The location of the line is bad, from an engineering point of view, and the location is also bad from various other reasons. It is inaccessible lying along the big cliff and rock (Continued on page four) ' y. right-of-wa- And again theres the canal president who it is said, is afraid to call a meeting of his stockholders for fear the stockholders might possibly vote approval for a subscription in the project. Now that the project is nearing construction stage the usual applicants for concessions are putting in an appearance. They want concessions all the way from eating houses to beer parlors, boating privileges, not to mention proposed transportation lines to carry workmen to and from the job. Those wanting jobs as guides would make a respectable regiand ment. And as for foremen, the end of the line isnt in sight. time-keepe- Also, theres the chap who placed his property in his wifes name in order to beat his creditors, who is now crying to the heavens because he cant vote at the Deer tax Creek election. Not being payer he is ineligible bj his own set, but to hear him talk you would think everyone else in the world was to blame but himself. ... On and on . You caw hear even plenty about Deer Creek, though youre rapidly becoming tired of hearing the words. Fifteen years talk on one subject maxes some of us just that way. Can you blame us. Heres hoping its either built very soon or killed so dead it wont be resurrected in our generation. Honor Roll of Advertisers Bunker Farms Dermies Own Deseret Mortuary D. G. Henriods Co.
