Water IIoli<ki>
Saves Much W ater
For New Yorkers
NEW YORK. UP)—'They turned
the water faucets tight here Fri
day and eight million New York
ers saved nearly 11 gallons apiece.
That’s the amount of a skimpy
tub bath ... or a fast shower . . .
or two big dish-washings . . . and
it may not seem so much.
But when you get 8,000,000 peo
ple savnig that much water it
means 90,000,000 gallons that are
still in the big city’s giant but
drought-stricken reservoirs.
It was a water holiday . . . dry
Friday ... or if you want to along
with the gag, “Driday.”
Water officials, apparently as
tonished by this blase city’s re
sponse, called it all a “huge suc
cess.” Then they crossed their fin
gers and hoped.people wouldn't
thrown a water binge to celebrate.
The best part of the saving was
that it was an extra saving—on
top of the 173.000,000 gallons the J
city has already managed to trim j
off its daily water budget since j
the shortage began two weeks ago.
That gives a net savings yester
day of about 273.000.000 gallons,
which is not so many tubfuls short
of the daily saving goal of 300,
000.000 gallons.
If New Yorkers can cut it that
much every day, water commis
sioner Stephen J. Carney thinks
the city may sneak through the ;
winter without rationing until the 1
big spring thaws solve the prob
lem.
