EXPECT REDUCTION IN
FIRE INSURANCE RATES

In an effort to reduce the fire insur-
ance rates in Moline, Mayor NJ. r.
Carlson and the city commissioners
have cooperated with the insurance
agents to the end that Moline IS now
said TO be one of the best protected
cities in Illinois. During the last year
expenditures of about 100000 have
been authorized for improvements in
the waterworks and fire department,
with a view of giving the residents
better protection from fire loss, which
means a reduction in rates. 1t is ex-
pected that in the near future a sur
vey of local conditions will be made
by the Illinois insurance bureau, and
on report Of this body will depend the
amount of the reduction, if any.
