TOWN FIRE BOARD
DEF|ES COUNCIL
Commissioners to Hold Annual
Election Despite New j,
Ordinance.

The Belleville Board of Fire commfe
sioners decided last night to hold the
annual fire election next Saturday, despite
the attitude of the Town Council. which
claims the right to govern the fire de-
partment. The voters will be asked to
select two commissioners and approve .
budget amounting to $500.
The Town Council recently passed an
ordinance taking the control of the fire
department out of the hands of the Fire
Board. Commissioners Nicholas comeskey
and Andrew /. Bagnall stated that the
commissioners would fight the council to
a finish, as they felt the councilmen had
no power to NEEDLE in their affairs.
The Fire Board has taken this action
on advice of counsel, who informed them
that the board was instituted under q
special act of the Legislature.

AIR DEVICE WILL
COAX Up WATER
East Orange Experiment at
White Oak Ridge Wells
Proves Satisfactory.

Interesting experiments were conduct
ed yesterday afternoon Mt the water
plant of East Orange in White Oak
Ridge with a device designed to get
water from the wells at a greater We
iocity than is possible with the present
air system, under the direction of Ar
thur A. Relmer, the department engi-
neer. The test was considered salts
factory and is to be continued.
A six-lnch pipe through which air
passes to a meter was attached to the
device and the air directed under the
water. II acts similar to what would
occur when a bicycle pump is placed
IN a pail of water. and there was an
increased flow of $4,000 gallons a day
from the we'll used in the operation.
The air will be circulated in one of the
wells. which are $50 feet In depth, for
twenty-four hours in the completion of
the experiment today.
II will cost $500 for each device at
tached to n we'll. but should they be
decided upon for use Engineer Reimer
intends TO seek a reduction in cost, as
there are many wells MT the plant. II
n claimed that five wells equipped with
1t will supply the same amount of water
as is now supplied from ten wells, and
The promise has been made, but Is Yet
to be fulfilled, that the pumps will Sc
cure n larger amount of water from
each well.
There is considerable activity at the
plant. and the Shade Tree Commits
sion has taken advantage Of the use
Of a large tract loaned by the Water
Board for setting out several hundred
seedlings that are to be planted on the
city streets by next year If they develop
as Commissioner Bennett hopes they
WIN. The planting Of corn and other
crops to supply the various departments
is also well under way, and a herculean
effort is being made TO nave the de-
partment on n saving scale this year. the
hardest in it's history, and there Is a gen.
ersi saving shown all along the line.
