Improved Water Storage Situation In Colony
The water returns for the month of April, 1939, which we publish to-day giving, the storage of water in the reservoirs of the Colony, due to the heavy rains last month, show a mark- ed, improvement, on the same date last year.
The total storage of water on May 1, 1939, was 3,272.45 million gallons, as against to 2.783.17 million gallons on the same date last year.
The consumption figure is also satisfactory, being 600.50 million gallons, as compared with 688.66 million gallons last year. The estimated population in 1939 is given as 1,050,000, which is an increase of 225,000 in 1938.
All this goes to show that the authorities, by restricting, the hours of supply, have shown a very sound attitude on the matter. RETURNS FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL ISLAND WATER WORKS
