Carlisle Penalized by Insur
ance People .Because of Too
Many Modern Engines
Carlisle, Pa., Dec. 26. —The pecu
liar situation of a town having too
much lire protection for its own fi
nancial benefit is revealed in a spe
cial bulletin by the Carlisle Cham
ber of Commerce, which includes,
among other things, a report in the
new Insurance rating here. It is
stated that the town, although given
an additional allowance of 200 points
on the deficiency charge, was penal
ized for having too many modern
tire eriglnes.
It is stated that the fact that that
the town has four modern automo
bile pumping engines is the cause,
it being declared that the mains are
not large enough to supply all of!
these machines should they go in
action at a big fire. President Hays,
of the Gas and Water Company, pro
tests against this and will have a
conference in Philadelphia early
next week.
Carlisle has spent in a little over
two years over $40,000 for four mod
ern engines and has authorized the j
purchase of a motor truck at a cost,
of SIO,OOO, making the entire depart-;
ment a gasoline outfit.
