Must Get Right For Water Line. Yakima Will Have to Obtain Permit for 20 Miles of Pipe. Surveys Are Not Made. Will Have to Wait Until Bond Sale Money Is Paid to Finance Work. Yakima, Jan. 21.-With Mayor W.B. Dudley's statement yesterday that the water bonds had been sold, interest was aroused as to when construction would begin. Commissioner Henry Traub said that although the bonds were sold, there would hardly be time for them to be pritned and other necessary routine work in connection with their delivery done before April 1. There was not sufficient money available to complete the surveys and buy the right of way before the bond election last fall, according to City Engineer Charles F. Wilson, and this work will have to be held up until the money is received from the bond sale. Right of way must be obtained for approximately 20 miles of pipe line from Oak Flats, some of this over land controlled by the Pacific Power & Light company, which, unless bought out, will be competitor of the municipal system. "The bids look much better than we expected," said O.A. Fechter, banker and former mayor, "and it will be good to see the engineers going ahead with the work. The rate of interest on the revenue bonds was a trifle disappointing, but the low rate obtained on the sale of the general obligation bonds made a satisfactory average. "I think the city is to be congratulated. We want an entirely new plan, for in the long run that is much more economic than attempting to build over an old one. It is good to think that Yakima is at last going to be able to make up the one deficiency that has handicapped its growth." "Yakima was facing possible increased fire insurance rates," said Fire Chief Harry E. Hawkins, "for it was known that the companies were but holding off t o see if the city would do anything to better the condition. Now there will be no increase and when the city gets an ample water supply, with sufficient pressure, a decrease may be sought."
