GAS PUMPS TO BE INSTALLED AT CITY HALL Because there is no way at present to distinguish between the amount of gasoline the fire, water, and police department uses in its special work the city council on Monday voted to buy and to install two gasoline pumps near the city hall. It appeared from the remarks of councilmen last night that there is some jealousy between the different city departments as to th amount of “gas” used. Discussion also brot out the fact that the handling of gasoline around the city hall at present was against any underwriter’s rules if ther should be an underwrite This also brot forth many timely and untimely remarks—in somewhat this fashion “Well, there isn’t any insurance on the city hall, is there?” “Why should there be? We have the city firé department here to pro: tect the building, havn’t we?” “Whata they do when the firemer are away from the building?” “Pohice department protects ‘the building then.” “Well, how in h—I did the build. ing stay here this long?” y And so the council bot some gas- oline pumps. ee ees Produce Market Week-End Review of Prices to Jobbers and Shippers Furnished by U.
