<• Recommendations of the Chief Engi
neer
i ' First—Woe d renew last year’s
c 'recommendations, that a 12-lnch
! main be laid from the reservoirs, as
[far south as Twelfth street and that
no more 4-inch mains be laid within
■ one mile of the reservoirs; new mod-
i ern hydrants be substituted for th<
i antiquated hydrants now in use in
the business portion of the city, and
[ that fire hydrants be used or no oth
er purpose than for firemen's use
I i and
that the fire department be
thanped to a paid department as
I*
quickly as possible.
»I
Second—Enact the ordinance pre-
sented by the mayor some months
since
relation to explosives, and
1
to the storage of gasoline and oil.
i 4 as soon as possible. Salctn, Or., had
4 a $25,000 fire during the past year
J
caused from a gasoline fire. During
-&
4 the last year I have found In stock
at one place of business 2500
J
pounds of giant powder and at th<
same time and place 800 pounds of
blasting powder.
Third—Purchase a nozzle for use
in basement fires and enact an ordi
nance making it possible to have the
basements kept clean of trash.
Fourth—Enact an ordinance to
? • 4 protect the’ fire team from automo
biles.
Fifth—Enact an ordinance protect
ing fire apparatus. During the past
year at least $150 worth of service
able hose has been destroyed makinp
the fire department that much short.
Sixth—Have the fire limit impar
4c
enforced.
I ! tially
Seventh—Paint the three fire hy-
1 drnnts that failed to receive a coat
ing of paint last year, and all the hy
should have onp more coat
