other than seepage, has been de- 1

which have occurred in some of the 1
most vital places, the aqueduct is now (
completely out of commission.
If this city, with its 600.000 people, i
was depending on aqueduct water! i
alone, the Inhabitants would be in M
great distress. Had Los Angeles been 11
dependent on Its municipal power |i

aqueduct, the city would have been in ! i

The aqueduct comes out of the;
Owene river south of Mt. Whitney hi
| the Sienna Nevada mountains at an
altitude of some 6.000 feet. It then
flows up and down hill, across the
Mojave desert, under mountain ranges
through giant pipes which writhe
down mountain sides aud across gorges.
through concrete ditches in the
level stretches, arriving eventually in
I the city.
Since the failure of the aqueduct to
deliver water for the past two months,
Los Angeles has been resorting to Its
old source of supply, the Los Angeles
river. The water stored in reservoirs
at the aqueduct terminal has also
been drawn upon.
Had It not been for the Los Angeles
river plant, with a capacity of approximately
52,000.000 gallons per day,
there undoubtedly would have been a
shortage of water.

there was never any need of the aqueduct.
