Former Atlanta engineer talks of pump controversy in Milwaukee
Daniel Shafer of Allis-Chalmers, formerly with Hamilton-Corliss, says he knows little about Milwaukee's pump debate but urges thorough, on-site inspection of pumping engines. He notes Allis-Chalmers as major waterworks maker with many large engines installed nationwide. Shafer defends southern HQs and suggests a committee visit to compare machinery and performance before decision. He plans to stay in Milwaukee through next week for Christmas with family.
