The Water Famine

There have been great complaints to-day about the insufficiency of the water supply, on which subject we have received several letters. The principal sufferers appear to be those living on the higher levels, some of whom never get any water at all, it being all drawn off before it can reach them by those living in the lower parts of the town. The City Engineer, accompanied by some of the councilors, went out to Wainui-o-mata to-day to see if a supply cannot be derived from that source without waiting for the completion of the dam.
