MAY REACH A COMPROMISE

Special Water Committee and the Water Company

IT LOOKS FAVORABLE

There are two months remaining before the new ordinance goes into effect

There is a possibility of the Water company and the city of Ann Arbor getting together on a compromise.

Said a well known member of the special water committee: "The committee is working away and we find that the Water company is willing to meet us in a fair manner and there is considerable likelihood of our getting together and agreeing upon a report which will be acceptable to the citizens. I hop it will terminate in this way as law-suits are expensive and uncertain."

On just what basis the compromise is sought is not stated. The ordinance which was passed cutting the rates does not go into effect until April 1, which will give over two months for the parties to come to an agreement.

If an agreement is reached it is to be hoped that it will be given to the public so that the citizens may become cognizant of its terms before it is rushed through the common council on the rapid transit route.
