Take Steps to
Fight Fire Loss
by Press Staff Correspondent

CALEXlCO, Feb. The board of
trustees of the city of Calexico met
in regular session last night, with
all members present. ~
W. IL. Lorcnz YVES present to make
representations with regard to in
creasing the efficiency of the fire
Fighting facilities in Calexico, in the
hope of forestalling any possible IN
crease in the insurance rates. The
trustees were asked to pass 81 resou-
tion extending the six-ineh water
mains to the west side of the city,
increase the water pressure to 100
pounds i'll cases of the calling of an
alarm of fire, and that 1000 feet of
dry hose be on the fire truck at all
times.
To Extend Water Mains
The board instructed City Man
agcr Stcintorf to lay an extension of
the six-inch main on Grant street
for Il distance of five blocks west
as soon us funds are available.
1t was established that 10 steam
valve instead of n regular water
valve on the fire plug in the Globe
Mills yards was responsible for the
lack of pressure at the fire which
destroyed $4,000 worth of cotton
Il week ago.
The cost of the extension of the
siX-inch main is estimated at $4,000.
The local undertaken, Mr.. Hens,
appeared before the trustees to
state his objection to the amount of
his occupation tax, which is 800 a
year. saying That this is, in his opin-
ion, unreasonable. He asked for
reduction to that paid in other val
Icy cities. The matter was laid over
by the trustees for investigation.
Appeal on Church Taxes
The Reverend Dir. Essert appeared
before the council on behalf of the
Community church, asking that the
penalty ON street Improvement taxes
be remitted. On advice of the city
attorney, the request was refused,
there being no legal loophole bv
which the trustees could arrange to
remit the penalty. A drive is now
being conducted by the Community
church to raise little over 5000 to
pay the overdue assessments and
penalties.
One permit to operate taxicab
was issued to Il Mr.. Garcia.
