TRUTH ABOUT
INSURANCE

Various anti-ring orators, candidates
and writer's of campaign literature
have sought to deprive the city admin
istration of the credit of securing the
reduction in fire insurance rates. Let
them now forever cease. The follow
ing letter tells how it happened. They
have been so anxious to belittle mayor
Kelly that they have tried to explain it
all away. Now let them explain some
more. This letter is from one who
knows:

of fire insurance to your citizens

vised that the files of this department
show that on March %, 1910, Ell PasO's
first key rate was published and fixed
at soc.

ing come as 4 result of installing one

ton of one new combination hose and
chemical fire truck, two autos and the
adoption of an arson reward.
The present key rate of 1Sc became
effective September II. 1914 on ac-
count of the instanatiOn of one auto
