V Mr. Arnett: #2 June IS, 1935. summer months, so that innocent people will not have to suffer along with the guilty ones because of a serious shortage of water. It has been our past experience that the majority of the people are perfectly willing to cooperate with us in conserving water, when the necessity for same is brought to their attention, but they of course feel somewhat dis­couraged when their neighbors continue to run water to waste, last year, we put on an inspector, at our own expense, to ehech the town and see that the provisions of the ordinance were lived up to, and are willing to follow a similar plan this year if you will have such employe delegated the auth­ority of a special policeman. Confirming our conversation a few days ago, at which time yourself and Commissioners were taken over the pprings, well, settling basin and reservoir, I am sure you appreciate the increasing gravity of the water situation, and in view of your kind offer of full cooperation in the matter, I respectfully request that the restrictive ordin­ance be passed as promptly as possible. Yours very truly, / sgd/ WALTER R. BRACKED, Vic e-President. Copies to - City Commissioners, Las Vggas, Nevada. ( c o p y )
