LETTERBOX FIRE PREVENTION WEEK Editor, Dally News: Monday, October 9, opens a week devoted to fire Dreventlon an effort by all those organiz ations in the North American continent responsible for nubile safety to educate our people W an awareness of the fire damage which yearly takes a terrific toll in lives and property. Last year British Columbia alone suffered 29 deaths by fire 24 adults and five children. Property loss from 'the 4073 fires was Just over four million dollars. That is an all time high iu per capita loss. To date, this- denartment this year has received 81 calls. A few were false alarms. But none of mem couia oe attributed to "an act of God." All were due to hu man carelessness. Always there seems to be someone willing to take a chance with cleaning clothes with gasoline or some equally flammablt solvent to rekindle a fire with kerosene to' disregard tht warning given by blowing fuses in an overloaded electrical circuit. And all the while, fire losses attributable to smokers care sssness are on the incirerise. Our experience is that any form of fire in the hands of intoxicated people presents an extremely high fire hazard to any community. Yet many people of quite excellent standing have been very embarrassed by a fire E'S CHARACTER IN HANDS-AND IN TOBACCOSl You could tell u$t from'Ted Murphy's hands as 1 he fills d pipe that he's seen a lot of life and so values at its true worth the sterling character of Old Virginia.
