explain that the city Is only one mile
wide and it would take a good many
trips to make up the mileage as
shown on the speedometer of 1,142

the councilman and explained that
this item would also be found on the

chased, a record of which is kept in
the mileage book on file in the Office
of the clerk of Company f.
Councilman Kress said that the
Ambulance was known as the city

have anything to do with it suggested
that they change the name. The sec
Rotary of the ambulance committee
stated that it was the original inten-
ition of the men of Company f to
have a South Amboy city ambulance
and the first organization effected
was along these lines but the men did
not receive the support of the people
so gave up the idea of having a
wholly city affair and solicited on
their own behalf from the munition
plants in his vicinity. 1t was then
decided by the committee in charge
to use this ambulance as such also as
a transport for Company L in a call
to duty. Councilman Kress requested
+, information as to where the ambu-
lance was kept and who was paying
