If we can possibly <br /> acquire the truck at no cost , $4,,000 ® 00 should take care of the <br /> equipment needed to outfit the vehicle for the job it has to do® <br /> Stacy Avant : It will take about $4400. 00 alone to pay for outfit- <br /> ting. $105 .00 for the gun; $135 .00 for the hose ; 10 couplings . . . . k <br /> plus all the rest® The vehicle we now use is an old truck 17 years <br /> old and not fit to 'be on the road . The old spraying machine is <br /> 35 years old , and to get the whole mess to operate efficiently is k <br /> something else ® Ira Godleski was spoken to® He inquired about a r <br /> truck for us ® I have heard nothing since . There is no telling <br /> when we will get it. The Selectmen and Finance Committee have the <br /> same figures I have here ® <br /> Garland : We have no figures I am aware of <br /> Avant : I gave them to the Selectmen and Finance Board ® <br /> Garland : We have not seen them. <br /> E <br /> F <br />
