Mr, Keevers stated that at the present time, if the apparatus is called out to a fire, there is mobody left at the station to take a still alarm if one should happen to come in. Asked by Chair. man Hall if that could not be remedi- ed by having a man from the police station come in and care for it until one of the companics from the out sectior Mr. Keevers stated that he did not know if conditions were such at the police station that a man would be free at all times to do it A sum of 86,500 is asked for re modeling No. 4 fire house, This sta- tion has never been remodeled and the old horse stalls are still there, and cverything in general needs re- pairing, according to Mr. Keevers. A new drill tower at a cost of § 250 is also included in the list Station in North End The fire commissioners a mended the erection of a new fire station to care for the Belvidere séc- tion, tior 86,707 of 824,000 for the house is asked, salary for eight men, $13,250 tripie combination hose, pum- per chemical, and $6 cquipment 1 asked When asked Chairman the commissioners had inc ed all the recommendations that were made by underwriters in the list of special jtems, he answered that they had not, but inciided only those for which they feit that there was a presring need. Police Department Budget Joseph A. McGrail was the spokes. man for the board of police commis- sioners in the absenee of David L. Dunn, chairman of the board whe was unable to be present. A1l mem- bers of the board with the exception of Mr. Dunn were present during the hearing of their budget Mr. McGrail explained the increase in the appropriation asked for pay roll as being caused by regular ad- vance in grade of new men in the Aepartment The payroll item ecalls for an appropriation of $131.765.75 An increase of §1.200 in the appro- priation fer suprrnumerary patroimen asked, the appropriation sought alling $16 When asked for informatinr rding the work of the patrolmen, Mr. that they filled in members of the de- th off sick or were having their regular for a and by Hall is 1ot SUpernumerary McGral! sxpia tor the regiiar rartment when when they day off Motor cars of getting 414 and beq were the department are more repairs, McGrail, so that an 8800 will be neces car instéad of $300, wHich was appropriated last year. The patrol used by the department has been in service since 1914, Incidentals h orfing ta Mr 2ppron sary for the next 3 tion of work and size of the department, fe- | cording to the commissionfrs, and an additional 2600 is asked $1.200 appropriated last year New the traffic other additional lights that are being ights a posts. and arrived at the headguarters, | recoms | For this purpose an appropria- | the | the present time the police court is being painted with money from this appropriation from last year, The board asked that $1,000 he appro- priated for building repairs o that new flooring be put in the corridors |of the building and the walls of the | corridors be painted. Police signal system needs general repairing and a new generator, so an lappropriation of $1,450 is asked for this ftem. This amount would also permit the purchase of two new signal boxes which would be kept on {hand at the station to be installed if one of the present boxes should be broken, and could also be used for {teaching the men how te preperly e them, }' Rocommends Emergency Fund | For the emergency fund of the de- |partment, 81,000 asked. Mr. [Grail told the hoard that he thought that in spite of the fact that the de- partment not spent any of the $500 that was appropriated last year, {an additional $1,000 should be given | this year, He also said that the money should be placed on account 80 that the police chief could draw on the money for the purpose of |sending officers to other cities to re- [turn prisoners At the present time the chief is using his own personal money for this, and he has te wait until the prisoner brought back and tried before the eourt case disposed of by the court before get his money refunded. The {board feels that it is an imposition on the chief to expect him to do this, Asked by Chairman Hall why chief hadn’t used the $500 appropri- ated last year for this purpose, Mr, McGrail answered that he did not have the authority to touch the money Fuel appropriation of $700 is asked and the garage rental item shows a decrease of $36, a sum of $504 being asked Chairman Hall at the amount “of §700 that is asked for traffic equipment, which is an in- crease of $400 over last year. Mr. MeGrail explaintd that the request was made in anticipation of the stan Aardization of traffic signs throuwgh- out the state which will the present Jraffic equipment being | changed, n/m 1east, repainted. He further explained that the brrakage of this equipment duyring the year is considereble. Chirf of Police Hart explained the |#pecial ftems that require appropria- tians, He told the board that the $2,55% necessary as the present wires have to be replaced becguse the insulation on them has bren worn. He recommendéd that as long the wires were being replaced coverad cables be used. These would last indefinitely, while the ecommon |insulation cables with rubber insuia- lead yrare. Using the lead cable would result in a saving to the cily, was the opinion of Chief Hart Two motoreyeles for the de partment at & cost of $360 cach are asked. OUne of them would be uscd Me- | and his! the | expressed surprise | necessitate | for a new signal system was! 1of the city having practcally no police protection, and in some tricts where there are schools, He sald that at the present time there are three supernumerary patrolmen filling in on the days off for the re- gular men and he thinks that regu- lar patrolmen shoud be appointed for this work, Additional traffiec officers are need- (ed, two for new traffic posts and one man for relief duty. It is necesary for the sergeant in charge of the traf- fic squad to go on duty to give the men relief, and Chief Hart told the {board that the sergeant should be free to go around and visit the posts at all times, An appropreiation of asked for this purpose, $20,500 in and it was 116 men were appointed, the three sue pernumerary policemen who eha |been filling in would be eliminated, resulting in “a reduction of the amount needed for supernumarics of over 85,000, ! The old patrol wagon that has been doing duty since 1914 will pass out if the appropriation of $3,800 for a new patrol is granted. | Want Flashlight System. ! The pelice commisisoners have made a study of the way in which the flashlight system of signalling has worked out in other cities, with the result that they asked an appropria- tion of 35,000 for the installation of the system here. The system enables the department to flash signals to all | parts of the city and have the officers call from the nearest telephone to headquarters for instructions, The installation of mushroom type |traffic lights te replace the present stands was recommended by Hart, and an appropriation of $2,000 to start the work was asked. | A clothing allowance for members of the department was recommended by the cemmisioners, who informed the finance board that they had re- ceived a request for a salary raise and a elothing aliowance for the men, had decided against the salary raise, but considered that the request for a clothing allewance was fair, and had agreed te seek an appropriation fer that purpese. City Hall Commission William G. Dunn, secretary of the city hall commission, in explaining tis budget which calls for $14,800, an the board that the eommission needad {16 have $5,000 for renovating third fleor of the building occupled {at the present time by the New Brit- fain club, but which it is to vacate this year.
