REMOVAL o FOIL TANKS.

By authorizing the city attorney 10
draw up an ordinance which will re-
move large gasoline and oil storage
tanks from within the city limits, the
city commission last night took a step
which endeared IL to residents and
property owners OF the Second ward,
and prevented what virtually might
have been a confscation Of that sec
tion Of the city by the distributing
companies.
Representative Of the distributing
companies which have storage tanks
here, and others interested, sponsored
demonstration about two weeks ago
to show that gasoline storage tanks
were safe, and could not explode
As residents Of the Second ward
pointed out at the meeting last night,
the tests carried out We're against or

clared were not what cause explosions.
ITS the unexpected that always hurts"
one speaker said graphically.
The loss of life and property Incl
dent to the explosion Of tank of
casing-head gasoline, however. was
freshly craven in the minds of those
five men who rule the city's affairs,
and their action in abolishing the men.
ace Of gasoline storage tanks from
Ardmore showed they are alive to the
best interests of Ardmore and Ard.
more people.
And they have set a precedent which
likely will be followed all over the
United States, and for which the nun.
icipal world has been looking ever
since the destructive explosion here
on September o. 1915.
