CITY MAY PUT BOARD WITH COUNCIL IN OIL BURNER Resolution to be Submitted to Union of B.C. Municipalities Is Endorsed by Prince Rupert .Board of Works Recommends That Hoatlng System In Hall be Changed The city council Is considering the proposition of converting tlio healing system in the City Hall from coal lo oil burning. Last night Hie Hoard of Works pre sented a recommendation that an oil burner be installed at a cost of $1,000. It was decided to refer the matter to the finance couiiuiltee for report. W. I.ongwill, agent for the oil burning apparatus, appeared before the council and explained the details of installation and (minted oul that money would be saved in heating by making the change. The C.N.H. reported a saving of fifty per cent in fuel cost by using oil as against coal. The company making the oil burners guaranteed a saving of one third. In one case where the change had been .made, the coal cost had been $00 per month as compared with $1.10 a day for oil. Three barrel of oil was considered equal to one ton of the best Vancouver Island coal. Suggests Big Saving Aid. Perry gave his opinion that 82100 a year would be saved. The oil would cosl the city Gc per gallon. The cost of installation as far as the company was Concerned would be $1187. The city would furnish the fuel tank which it already had and would have 10 do some excavalior for the tank and pipes. He dii. not know oiT hand what the cos: of excavation would be. Aid. Collart asked that the. mailer he referred to llie finance committee. He was not opposed o making the change but he did not know where the money to cover the cost of installation was oiiiiug from. Aid. Casey asked thai the fi-tanre (ommitlec report on the "ily's fuel bill for a yeaw' II was his opinion thai it did not exceed 700. Will Investigate Mil.
