The Dallas volunteer fire department Is auk lug the voters to favor tbe pro posal to issue city bonds in the sum of J2600 and levy a one mill lax ou each dolar of assessed valu atlon for maintenance, the funds to be used for the purchase and maintenance of a combination chemical and hose car carrying 1000 feet of fire hose, a 40-gallon chemical tank with 200 feet of chemical hose attached, two three gallon band chemicals, a 20-toot extension ladder, and a 12-foot root ladder. The firemen claim that tbe tire loss that could have been Baved In 1021 with a chemical engine was greater than the cost of the pro posed apparatus.
