"Hereafter . anyone violating the speed ordinances while on their way to fires will be prosecuted. The state law does not give license to volunteer fire members to endanger the lives of pedestrians by -rushing at break neck speed in autos to fires!

This has been the prac tice every time there is a fire and I am going to cause the arrest and pros ecute the next person who violates this law. I hope to have it stopped before someone is killed.
