Many residents of New Rochelle were concerned about low water pressure long before United Water filed for a 54 percent rate increase. Recently mid-rise and high-rise buildings constructed decades ago were told that to get water to the upper floors, they needed to put in a pump. A United Water official later claimed water pressure had been lowered. Most disturbing were reports that fire hydrant fees which are included in local municipal budgets would increase by 300 percent. In New Rochelle using a lower number of hydrants to lower costs could result in reduced safety.

In what direction are we going in the good old USA? To me, it appears we are headed in the same direction as the Roman Empire and the Third Reich which was supposed to last l,000 years. The reason for this is that we are touting such things as that a child in the womb has no civil rights since it is it not human. How can a child in the womb not be human? In addition, we hear people touting gay marriage as a civil right. Things of this nature are just the beginning. I’m sure other things will follow if the Supreme Court and other agencies become more liberal.

Her name was Agnes Bojaxhiu, but she was better known as “Mother Teresa.” Aug, 26, 2010 was the 100th birthday of Mother Teresa. She died in 1997 at the age of 87 but more importantly she epitomized the real meaning of Christianity and had a sense of humanity that many others wish they could emulate. She was a Catholic nun who was Albanian that founded the Missionaries of Charity in India. She helped and supported the poor and the sick for close to a half-century in India. The missionaries had 610 chapters in more than 123 countries giving help to people with HIV/AIDS, leprosy and providing many soup kitchens.

I was happy to read in your paper that the New Rochelle firefighters endorsed Jim Maisano in his campaign for Supreme Court justice. We all know that our firefighters truly understand our community and their endorsement is important. Our city is lucky to have such a great fire department.
