To the Editor: At the time theques-
tlon regarding a paid lire department
for this city was first being discussed,
feeling on interest ill the subject, i con.
cluded to investigate it for my own per-
sonal information, and during several
business trips through New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania i made it a
special point to visit the tire depart-
ments wherever Ihappcned to stop. In
this way considerable was learned con-
cerning the varied methods ni‘ various
dopartmentso.‘ lire-lighters. Now that
a meeting is soon to be held to reconsider
the negative action recently taken by
the city on this subject.l [relieve some
remarks on the question at issue may be
in a rrrossure appropriate to the occasion.
Judging from what 1 have seen of the
good work done up to the present time
by our rolulllelr lervice, and camper
ing it with such records as l have been
able to or e of other tire departrrlenls, it
apps tire: in me that our city has lilillllll‘
