standpoint the Roman method has tered. but as cen- turies rolled on it became nccns- sary t0 improve ﬁre ﬁghting eq- uipment and it would be very dif- ﬁcult to imagine the ﬁre depart- ments of today carrying on their tremendously important duties with squirt guns instead of the vast DllmDcrs, aerial ladders. water towers. high pressure systems and so many other valuable modem

equipments.

When we consider the vast changes that have been made in ﬁre ﬁghting equipment from thi-

days of the Romans until iodruv. it is wondered if it would be por- sible to continue to improve. The large business houses and manu- facturing plants have. in many cases. equipped their premises with automatic systems. Special spray nozzles have been developed as well as foam generators for use in oil ﬁres. and you may rest assured that the credit for the invention of so many modern appliances should g0 to a. great extent to the ﬁre departments of the world. and it is Just such conventions as this one 1n which you are now taking pert which pennite the free ex- change of idea-s and experiences that will lead to more and more modern developments and improve- merits. _

In closing it is my earnest hope that each and every "prefectus viglluur" is enjoying his stay in our province, and may the Maritime Chiefs’ Association prosper.

Following the reading of Mr. Beer's paper Major J. A. Rudlantl. Fire Marshal of Nova Scotia pre- sented a paper on Fire Prevention Week.

The speaker opened his address by remarking that the week which includes the 9th of October is ob- served annually in Canada as “Fire Prevention Week". When one takes note of the vast amount of property loss and the loss of lives the vital importance of using every possible means to curtail this menace cannot be questioned. the speaker stated.

Fire waste is real squandering- everything destroyed. by~~ ﬁre is- gone forever and it is a known fact that ‘It! percent of e11 wiur ﬁres originate in our dwelling places. Our task is to awake a ﬁre consciousness in the people-pro- green is slow but sure and when all have learned that nearly all our ﬁres can be prevented by ex- ercise of care then only will our goal be reached. Do we requlrl‘ any further answer to the question “Why u Fire Prevention Week?"

"One of the means of obtaining and recording knowledge concern- ing the origin and extent of ﬁres is to closely investigate as many ﬁres as possible," the speaker stated. "The preliminary inquir- ies concerning ﬁres are made by Fire Chiefs and others who refer numbers of ﬁres to the Fire Mar- shal's Department for further in- vestlgetlon. Last year 159 ﬁres were investigatcd by the Fire Marshal staff assisted by police and ﬁre departments and by the Fire Underwriters’ investigators. The inquiries were made for var- ious reasons, not always because there was suspicion towards the origin of ﬁres. Arising from this activity twenty persons were ar- rectcd and charged with "Arson" and other crimes related to ﬁre. Six were cohvicted of arson. one convicted of manslaughter. one for

theft of explosivec followed by ﬁre.

~session;"'1-l'e'conveyed the greet-

many other things.

Mr. Plant explained that the or- ganization he represented extends its activitics from coast to coast. Thc members arc tisualiy selected from the various police forces throughout the country and un- dergo special training in the in- vestigation of arson. It is far more gratifying and just. as lin- portant to establish deﬁnitely the cause of a ﬁre to be accidental in order that the proper precautions may be taken to prevent n. recur- rence of a similar nature and also to rtimovc a possible suspicionthat the ﬁre was otherwise.

Thr- three yiriircipic lllOtlVPS for criminal ﬁres were deﬁned as fol- Inws: hatred and revenge; desire to conceal crime; to defraud the insurer. The type last named is by far the most common.

Iticcndiriry tires as a rule are accelerated by means of highly inﬂammable liquids. The best civic servants we have, our ﬁremen. of necessity must rush at break-neck speed to the scene, and quite a number have inst theirlives in d0- ing so.

Reference was also made to the menace of the "ﬁre-bug" and to the importance of insisting that punishment for such offenders in keeping with the crime. “Help the Firc Marshals and all others who specialize in work of this nature“. Mr. Plant urged. "Give them what infor- mation you may have to help solve the cause of the ﬁre. Do not shlrk your duty by hesit-ating to appear as a witness. Inccndiarism and arson are crimes equally as bad as murder and treason, and you as honest business men and members of this Association must do your share to change the expression so often hoard. ‘the Insurance Com- pany pays’. to the more correct expression. ‘the honest man pays’. and then very often he pays even with his own life".

Mr. Percy Bugbee, BostomMasm. assistant managing director Nat- ional Fire Protcctinn Association gave an instructive and interest- ing address during the afternoon

ings to the convention of the com- pany which he represented and assured the gathering that per- sonally he was very much pleased at receiving the invitation to at- tend. He was very much inter- ested in what went on in the Maritlmes and told the audience that his company had supplied literature on various phases ofﬁre protection that would be available to anyone desiring a. copyofsame.

There was two simple causes of ﬁres in the Maritimes, the speak- er stated, heating of chimneys. electrical appliances and falllngof sparks on wooden shingles. At.- tack tlicsc causes, Mr. Bugbee said and you would go a long way in lessening the destruction caused every year by ﬁre.

Mr Bugbcc dwelt at some length on the hazard of wooden shingles on roofs. The wood shingle was a grcnt hazard. the speaker stat- ed. but ncvcrthclcss it appeared that the iumbcr manufacturers m Canada wcrc iroivcrful enough to stop any report that might be made on same. He complimented Major Rutlrmd on campaign in Nova Scotia schools against wood- on shingles. but he bclicved that individual campaigns by the Fire
