3ca23363-ea5d-43fc-a529-7a34bd67e79a | Of these witnesses examined whose evidence was directly adverse to the reservoir and storage schemes put forward by the Companies, that of Mr. A. R. Binnie, M. Inst., C.E., Chief 53 Engineer to the London County Council, was the most important. Mr. Binnie's evidence was to the effect that the supply that could be drawn... |
6bc33ed4-73fa-420d-bbbb-6637dd6bfd38 | The Water Committee of the London County Council issued a memorandum by its Chairman and a series of reports by the principal officers of the Council on the report of the Royal Commission on the Metropolitan Water Supply by which it will be seen that the conclusions of the Royal Commission are controverted to a certain... |
340de40b-ccac-4826-aeef-9a9cab4cba3a | But this never entered into the reference to the Commission, and in considering their report it has constantly to be borne in mind that whatever they say in support of the prospective sufficiency (for forty years only) of the watersheds of the Thames and Lea has no bearing on the 54 real question whether new gathering ... |
c8532748-f9d6-4ec3-8c0f-9a8f09d3253c | In regard to this, one has to bear in mind the long time which is required for the execution of the vast works necessary in large water schemes, and Mr. Binnie, the Council's chief engineer, says plainly that the people of London, "will, at some not very distant date (probably twenty years hence) have to contemplate th... |

ed066a16-924b-4d16-ba86-c4c1df0e1d68 | Tests Not to be Relied on. There is a good deal of common sense in some of the remarks in the reports about the safety, or otherwise, of polluted waters. Mr. Binnie draws attention to the fact that "the Royal Commissioners received, although they do not quote it, some very strong evidence from one of the highest author... |
79f9e920-33b2-4fdb-b6e1-02ae46598bec | Asked what would be his treatment of the water if it were found to be polluted, he could only answer that "there was nothing for it but either to boil the polluted water, or else to leave it alone." In face of such evidence from such an authority we turn with interest to the paragraphs in Mr. Binnie's report summarisin... |
f382a79b-dd16-4b32-89dd-a949dca4e887 | Consequently it is clear that if the Thames is to be retained as a source of water supply, the people of London must drink the more or less clarified excreta of this vast population. To show what is likely to happen in the future, it is mentioned that in the present session of Parliament "the authorities of Swindon and... |
f2b321ad-6a98-4d3a-b9f7-90020ace6dd2 | "There is no positive evidence that the filtered water is unwholesome, but the lives of a large community ought not to be dependent on the efficient filtering plant of commercial companies. Under present circumstances, a serious epidemic of typhoid or cholera in the Thames basin above the intakes, would be attended wit... |
ea0f7372-4ad1-4cd1-8bc9-e0d4e9deb0e6 | The Royal Commission had before it evidence, he says, which showed that the rivers from which the Water Companies draw their supplies receive from the towns, situated on their banks at varying distances above the intakes sewage effluents, which, after treatment of the sewage, either by filtration through land or by che... |

b7649f99-6fce-4086-9706-b6bf663161e9 | As it is probable that the completeness of the future operations of the water companies may depend upon the necessity which can be shown for efficient filtration, it is a matter of great importance that the natural processes of purification should not be held to be more deserving of confidence than they really are. Aft... |
0f2f467f-28c4-45ad-9eb2-aa644019282b | Nothing can be found in the report which in any way disturbs this conviction, and it may be assumed, as has always been urged in these reports, that the water supplied to London, if properly treated by the avoidance of pollution, ample storage (in order to avoid the necessity of taking in water from the river when in f... |
7541b68c-8591-47af-bc3c-4953ec311ba7 | Although very little is definitely said on the subject, the impression which the perusal of the report leaves upon the mind is that the whole control of the water supply, from the sources to the final delivery to the consumer, should be in the hands of one authority, and that the time has arrived when competing compani... |
f120931c-ae1b-44c4-a693-2e475927b5d7 | The cause is undoubtedly that the mains and service pipes are laid too near the surface, and obviously the depth of the service pipe will depend upon that of the main where the latter is laid at an insufficient depth. This will strengthen the case for municipalisation of the water supply to which reference has been mad... |
42cc0e94-64bc-458d-b35f-5146e439caea | From a point of view totally different from that of mere arrangements of clauses, viz., that of administration, the Bill may be regarded as consisting of two parts, not structurally divided, yet distinct from each other. One of these parts concerns Sanitary Authorities and their executive officers on whom it casts new ... |
5b469cf5-a48e-4af5-8150-a48b870da1eb | The administration of the statutes in question involves greatly increased inspection on the part of Inspectors of the Sanitary Authority.

7a0eae62-4bb2-4d0c-a99c-5797b71cfee0 | 61 The clause omits to specify (a) the minimum of floor space or the maximum of height, in the stated amount of cubic space to be provided for each person; (b) the minimum of height of any room to be used as a workshop; and (c) the precise quantity of gas, oil, candle, or other illuminant which shall count as one perso... |

It has generally been accepted that one "ordinary gas burner" is equivalent to thr... |

No reference is made in respect of workshops, &... |
e6bd4391-814d-45bc-bdd2-1401a88712e6 | This provision refers only to factories of over forty workers. It seems reasonable to expect that in any workshop where this number of hands are engaged the same protection should be afforded. This may be secured by amending Section VII. of the Act of 1891 (Provision against Fire) by adding the words "or workshop" afte... |
61e9c1fb-dd36-4a70-99a3-3cd075793201 | Bakehouses.—Section 24(1) extends to every bakehouse the previous provision as to bakehouses in the larger towns (of over 5,000 inhabitants). The definition of "retail bakehouse" in the Act of 1883(s.18) is unsatisfactory, inasmuch as it limits the term to the retail shop occupied together with a bakehouse, and consequ... |

0b3c8af9-aa11-4647-a75c-eed2d9c383e6 | This clause goes further than section 1 of the Act of 1891, which gives the Inspector power to prosecute for breach of sanitary provisions in respect of workshops. For such procedure it is proposed that the Inspector need not be a counsel or solicitor. In the section in question and its intended extension we have both ... |
93a0836f-8230-4e94-854c-4b7f4b335bac | The weakest point in it is the divided authority; indeed so apparent was this that another measure proposed to take the matter out of the hands of the Local Authorities and to vest the whole control of the subject in the Factory Inspectors, it is, however, not probable that the latter view will prevail.
