San-faancisco和近乎城市的水状况。
在涉及加利福尼亚州旧金山附近社区的未来水需求的文章中，该城市的一家报纸最近说：“水问题在东湾城市变得急剧。在许多部分中，人口的增加已经导致短缺。如果没有增加供水，就不能继续增长，尽管金钱和辛勤工作可以提供暂时的缓解，但他只会暂时，因为现在致力于东海城的来源的总体无法开发出来以满足该领土的未来需求involved, which include storage for a three years’ supply. The growing communities on the peninsula are already realizing their danger, although money enough would probably enable them to get on for a good many years. No single municipality, however, has the means to accomplish it ana San Francisco alone is protected against all tuture contingencies. The sources are available. And the water dedicated to the use of San Francisco, added to the aggregate available from nearby sources, is ample lor the needs of the entire bay district for ages to come. Of course, San hrancisco would he delighted to have the transhay cities get HetchHetehy water. And they can get it on any terms they choose which do not involve any payment by San Francisco toward water consumed elsewhere. There are three possible ways. One is a general water district embracing all the territory which desires to come in. Another way is the formation of an east bay water district to deal with this city, and which, if formed, may make one of two bargains. It may join with this city precisely as if there was but one district created, which shall assume its share of the total expense of development, including all that this city has ever expended in securing title and developing the property, and get its water at cost. Or, on the other hand, San Francisco may complete the development at its own expense and sell at wholesale to the east bay district and others. That, however, would not give the water at cost, for if this city assumes the entire burden and risk of development and maintenance it would expect, in payment for the risk, the same profit that a private corporation would expect.”
