The significance of the series of opinions published in other columns of this Buyer’s Guide and Reference Number, in which the several prominent manufacturers in the fields to which FIRE AND WATER ENGINEERING is devoted, express their views of the prospects for 1923 as compared with 1922, lies in the fact that these concerns are in a position to speak authoritatively on the subject, through the intimate contact of their representatives with the heads of the water works and fire departments and their consequent knowledge of conditions and prospects for improvements in these fields. Not a single discordant note is sounded in the voicing of favorable opinions as to the future of the fire department and water supply fields during the year just begun.
