“AIR-CONDITION UNITS DECLARED

SEWAGE HAZARD

Installations Nearly Reached, Steeg Warns.

A survey by the Indianapolis ‘Water Co. of air-conditioning in Indianapolis today showed almost double the number of installations during this year over 1936. It showed that 79 units had been installed in 1937 as compared with 42 last year. At the same time City Engineer Henry B. Steeg issued a warning

“that “the day is not far off when

the sewage system will not be able to handle the extra load caused by -air-conditioning.” 166 Units Now in Use.

Ficre have been 139 air-condi- - tioning installations since 1934 as compared with 27 prior. to: that time. The total number to date is

»- 166.

Mr. Steeg predicted that eventually all restaurants, hotels, theaters, department stores and others in the downtown area will be air-condi-

- tioned.

“When that time comes,” he declared, “the sewers will be inadeguate to take the storm’ waters and

. air-conditioning water together.”

He said either the stores would have to employ mechanical devices, now on the market, to limit the supply of water used, or new sewer lines must be built.

Well Supply Limited

A few have installed these me.chanical devices already, he said,

= ‘making it possible to use the same “isupply of water over again. Others

‘pump a constant stream through their units into the sewers.

He added that he was encour=|-

aged by the results of a recent investigation showing that the wells employed by the downtown stores were not sufficient to provide water

i. for the air-conditioning of. all - stores®

He indicated that, therefore, they would have to limit the amount of water used, since meter water is “too expensive” in such quantities.

Indies. The bridegroom, Herman A. Voogel, 34, was to be married by the Mayor of Batavia. At his side will stand Mrs. Martha Meyer, wife of a fellow officer, who was to serve as “proxy.” Legal and diplomatic barriers to the long-distance ceremony were removed through the efforts of Jacob Steketee, Netherlands Consul at Grand Rapids, and by the Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies. The bride, a piano teacher, will join her husband at Batavia in November. She first met Mr. Voogel two years ago when the young officer visited Grand Rapids. Last year she visited him at his home in Holland. At that time they decided upon the marriage. " «It’s an old Dutch custom,” the bride-to-be replied today to questions regarding the ceremony.
