factory district for which it pays the Water
Works company, but keeps the plugs there.
In fact, the user of the utility, under the
proposed ruling, faces double charge, namely,
that of installation and that of the privilege to
use the utility in case of fire. And, inasmuch as
all water used by an automatic sprinkling system
goes through meter on the premises OF the
user, the company is paid so much gallon for
every drop of water used in extinguishing the
blaze.
The readiness to serve charge which the COM
mission proposes can be looked upon in no other
light than a double charge against the business
man and the factory owner. They are forced to
pay to install the devise and then are compelled
to pay the Water Works company for its USE
This double charge is manifestly unfair.
That manufacturers will not be keen to come
to Indiana under these conditions, and that man.
ufacturers of this state who proposing large
additions to their factories will look to other
states for sites, merely logical results of the
short-sighted policy of the commission.
One of the big items in the expense account of
factory is insurance. Almost every large man
ufacturer has kept this down to the minimum
by the installation of the sprinkler device.
Charge him a readiness to serve charge, and you
are hitting him at vital point. Why should he
not take advantage Oh Inducements OlleISu III
other states where such irksome regulations are
not in force? Why should he stay in Indiana if
this big item can be reduced materially else
where?
Even if the added readiness to serve charge
would not bring his insurance and the additional
water service charge up to the insurance pre-
MUM paid before the sprinklers were installed,
there is not business man or factory owner who
would discard the device He knows absolutely
that in case of fire, the damage will be restricted
to small zone near the origin of the blaze. and
that his whole plant, or greater part of it, will
not be put out of commission in event of fire.
This factor alone is an important one in consider
ing the advantage of the sprinkler system. By
keeping his factory running, he is able to keep
on manufacturing his products or of selling his
goods, thereby paying his workers and adding
to the wealth of the state. Why does the COM
mission want to punish him for the installation
of system that has these benefcent qualities

Against the Sprinkler Charge.

The Indiana Manufacturers association has
declared against the proposed sprinkler charge
soon to be made by the state public utility COM
mission on factories and business houses of
Richmond that have installed the sprinkler appli-
ance
The association argues. correctly that the
upshot of the ruling will mean the withdrawal of
factories from Indiana to states where they are
not harassed by rulings of a state commission
on matters as paIpably unfair as the proposed
charge against factory owners who have invested
money in system which cuts down insurance
rates and at the same time is the very best pre-
caution against fire that ever put on the
market
No one has given an adequate reason why a
readiness to serve charge should be placed against
business man or factory owner, who, out of his
own pocket, installs system for his own benefit
and for the general protection of all the buildings
in the neighborhood. If the Water Works COM
pany installed the sprinkler system, if it in
vested money in it's original installation and it's
subsequent upkeep there would be some ground
for the state commission to rule that readiness
to serve charge is justifable.
But the opposite holds true. Not the Water
Works company, but the user of the utility, the
business man, the factory owner, puts in the
system, invests his money in the device, must
charge himself for its depreciation and for its
maintenance. The Water Works company is not
loser by the installation, because the city does
not diminish the number of water plugs in the
