Felix Schmidt of the Sanitation Department pitches a mechanized collection system to reduce costs, aiming to cut the monthly fee from 3 to 1.50 dollars and save about 135000 dollars first year and 200000 second year. The plan shifts to neighbor joint ownership containers and eliminates much labor, with cities like Farmington and Truth or Consequences testing the system ahead of a July 27 bond election.

Four of Zuni Wells Show Poor Output on Testing
Preliminary results from the U S Geological Survey indicate four of six wells drilled on the Zuni Reservation would yield poor to marginal water. The two strongest wells may produce 25 to 50 gpm with water at about 400 feet. Additional tests suggest some wells could reach higher yields if sandstone fractures exist. Seismic tests may guide broader drilling.
