Raining - kept on raining - spent almost entire day in trying to straighten out stuff left by Smith. Have almost too many plans. Started breaking in new inspector. Tried out vacuum valve. N.G. packing too hard and wouldn't seat. Tried higher pressure and collapsed float. Finally got cut over started on rack condensate. Little else of interest. Trouble in water treatment plant. Motors burning out.
