Show Visitor Wonders About City's Water Shortage Further evidence that visitors who came to Springville to attend the Spring Acres races last Monday Mon-day afternoon, were UNFAVORABLY UNFAVOR-ABLY impressed with the little act of depriving the management of water with which to settle the dust was seen this week in a letter received re-ceived at the Herald Office from a prominent citizen of American Fork. The letter is as follows: "What's happened to Springville's Spring-ville's Tauted water supply? "For years you have been continually con-tinually selling the advantages your city affords the home owner and industry and now all at once we hear that your "community is so short of city water that the Memorial Day race meet could not have a few tanks to wet down the track. How come? "Seriously, what is all this talk about a city water shortage? Did something happen to the water mains or' storage tanks, or was this just a gag? Reports have it that Payson came to the rescue of the race track owners with the loan ofasprinkling wagon equipped with a gasoline pump. "Give us the low down on this deal because, as we know, your city is the second largest in the county and we have always understood under-stood your city officials looked ahead and we just cannot imagine your community being short of water, even for a day. "Let's have the low-down on this latest county rumor." Yours sincerely, A. Frank Gaisford |
