Now. however, material and labor are available, according to city officials. In fact tne labor needed will greatly ; assist in providing work for former service men, and the issuance of the bonds will avert a critical situation in culinary culin-ary water for the city and in the electric light system. It is vital that the water system and the electric light system be improved and extended and revenue bonds are the only means available to finance the venture, officials . said, unless the im provement in the water system is made many homes will be without culinary water during the hot summer season. The erection of hundreds of new homes within the city which necessitate the greater use of water and electric power, make the issuance of bonds an absolute necessity. ? The present main line for car rying water from the reservoir to the city, and the main feeder lines within the city, do not have sufficient capacity to carry the water needed to meet the demands de-mands for present water users, it was pointed out. New larger lines, along with the metering for the control of water use, offers the only possible solu tion to the problem. But all this takes money and the city officials are unable to complete the job without the funds which the bond issue will provide, it was stated The electric system is proving in adequate because of the heavy installation of electric equipment in the many new homes and modernized old ones in the city Payson Pushes Dimes Campaign PAYSON The March of Dimes campaign is now underway in Payson under the direction of Doyle Liddle, local chairman.

CORRESPONDENCE This column has been soliciting suggestions from readers concerning con-cerning what Orem needs. The following well thought out, constructive con-structive letter was received this week: "I offer the following suggestions sugges-tions on what Orem needs in the order of their importance, as I see them. "1. An eight foot underpass, under-pass, to be constructed under Highway 91, for students of Spencer and Lincoln schools. The combination of a young, healthy and eager child and a careless, sleepy drunken driver of a speeding automobile automo-bile can meet at that corner any day. The result is too well known for me to repeat. Certainly then we would build that underpass. But, how much wiser and happier we .will all.be to do it now. before such a tragedy awakens awak-ens us to its urgent need. "2. Three hundred four-room rental units NOW, plus one thousand thou-sand more within the next three years. "3. A larger swimming pool conducted in the same manner as the one we now have. "4. A bank with directors and officers who believe In Orem and know what money invested in a growing city will do for it. "5. A citizen's committee to work with the city commission toward correcting all known flaws in city building, and to suggest sug-gest ordinances being passed now before large, congested area become be-come a reality. Any housing project pro-ject that will put hundreds of families in an area of some four or five blocks is a crime breeding breed-ing center and should be outlawed out-lawed by our city commission before any more of them are started. "6. Two park sites. "7. Better street identification. "8. A telephone exchange. "9. Sunday movies and other forms of wholesome recreation.
