Supreme Court Delays Decision On Puerto Rico Water Case
Washington March 25 The United States Supreme Court postponed ruling in the Porto Rico water case for a week until April 8. Several Illinois irrigation disputes were decided with state law questions about municipal water contracts and rate setting for long terms. The court upheld a lower court ruling allowing a water district to fix rates for decades and noted ambiguity in statutes while stressing public interest. Justice Meena wrote the majority opinion, with White dissent on the first ordinance issue.
