Firemen, Police At Fires
I - jasnlnlng the telephone cir- cuits with calls of inquiry to the operator and the fire station whenever a fire alarm is sounded
in Burnmerside, those citizens of the town are unwittingly creating , a situation that completely disrupts 'certain parts of the telqphone loouununicatlon systan in summer- side and prevents ementiai calls that frequently have to be made by or to the llelvphone operator. police and fire station.
MAS Clue. Mountain. chief op- srata It the Summer” tele- phone exchange, in explaining the -circuit problem created by in- quiring telephone substxlbers. said that from the moment the fire alarm is sounded, scores out people pick up their phone to try to find out where the fire is located. This in turn creates a. busy signal on as many circuits. .
Many of the calls are directed to the operator. who in most cases does not know where the fire is located, and these calls prevent the operator from receiving and handling normal and emergency traffic.
At the police station and fire
mm....:.m..j.L.. hall the situation is even worse. for is so hopelessly jammed with incoming calls that it would be irrnpcuiuble for the person who sounded the fire alarm. to cancel the call for the fire trucks should the fire be s minor one which had been extinguished even before the firemen aaanbled. 1115 Mountain also pointed out ths. in the event of another lire, these calls might make it im- possible to sound the second alarm. and she said the same situation would prevail if the police were needed urgently at this time. Surprisingly; she said, a great many of the multitude of inquiring calls are made by children who have no material interest in the location of the fire, and she ex- pressed hope that parents would
co-operate in keeping calls to a minimum.
Miss Mountain said that the telephone management and staff
were aware of the great personal interest that vise location of the fire would have for a number of businem men who would have nat- ural concern for the safety of their stock and property. but lab-966 P50- plo would be advised if the fire
was located in or threatened their pleas of business.
Mr. George Hugs, secretary of the fire department. said that even the firemen are unable to reach the fire .hall by phone because of busy circuits when the sounded. He said it is always prob- able and sometimes imperative for the police and iiremen to make calls or be called during a fire slam. He cited an instance in connection with the last fire alarm on Sunday evening when it was necessary for the police. who re- ceived the alarm. to communicate with the Electric Light Department.
He commented on the speed with which the snow plow had opened the streets for the fire trucks and
