;inents are learning I
isolution to their water problem
I lies many miles away"
A major bottleneck, he be-
lieves, is in the average town's
ability to finance such projects
The bill would let the govern-
ment buy up to $5 million worth
of bonds when the Corps of
Engineers certifies that a pYo-
(ject is feasible, would aid bene-
filial conservation in the river
basin, and would not adversely
affect flood control.
Water supply would still be
primarily a local responsibility,
Wright points out Any develop-
ment under the bill would have
to be carried out in compliance
with state laws.
"The government would simp-
ly be extending a helping hand
in a practical and constructive
manner without in any way vio-
lating local responsibility", he
declares.
The author has been active in
the field of water development
for several years. Last year he
steen’d through Congress a bill
to help Fort Worth out of a
pending water crisis by author-
lizing use of water in Benbrook
reservoir, a federal flood con-
trol structure.
Prior to coming the Congress
he served as Mayor of Weather-

ford where he spearheaded ne-
gotiations for a municipal lake
lie also served as President of;
the League of Texas Municipali-1
ties which brought him in con
tact with the water problems of I
more than 600 Texas cities.
"I am convinced," he declar-
es, "that the most urgent pro
blent tn the western half of the
United States is developing long-1
range solutions to the growing
demand for water."
He believes the problem will
grow, even if the drouth should
break, because most towns are
growing and all are using more
water.

The district pooled funds to

Wvlie and put in lines to carry
water to its member cities The J

lion gallons per day are being
delivered to Dallas under con-
tract.
Meanwhile, stream flows are
diminishing as the drouth con-j
tinues, causing a shortage of
dilution water and giving rise to ,
sporadic complaints of pollu-;

created, but no increase in cases

Then when the Rio Grande
started running again,
found they had two sources of
water, the river and the wells
Ehlers said cities have found
auxiliary sources of water, but
they have also built or expanded
or bettered treatment plants.,
built booster pump stations and
extended pipe lines
In 1955 some 40 cities de-
veloped completely new water
systems. 09 dug extra wells, 23
put in additional pumping fa-
