AIlis-c Chalmers Company Believe
Local Vibration Trouble Solved

After extensive investigation from
various different angles the Water,
Light and Power Commission of Sank
Centre believe that the vexatious
vibration trouble will be solved.
For months the Allis-Chalmers
Co., of Milwaukee, manufacturers of
the Diesel engines installed in the
local light plant, have been expert
menting in the factory with an en-
deavor to devise improvements which
will do away with the vibration.
Demonstrations made at the factory
have convinced the designer. and
manufacturer of the engine that
the vibration can be handled, and a
few weeks ago a proposition was
made to the Light and Power Com
mission to make the necessary
changes.
Monday evening of this week
George A. Burdick manager of the
Minneapolis branch of the Allis-
Chalmers Co., appeared before the
commission and made a proposition
to make the necessary changes on ore
of the engines for s2,235 net, for the
installation of the improvements,
the city to pay for the extra labor
NEEDED and the hauling charges in
Sank Centre.
The proposition carries with it a
guarantee to eliminate the vibration,
thereby to make settlement after a
60lday continuous trial after install
lation.
