Firemen Make
Building Check
Better protection of Salem
lives and property is the purpose
of a survey now being made of
downtown buildings, and which
later will be extended to fac
tories, schools and apartment
houses.
Fire Chief W. P. Roble said he
had put C. K. Buckholtz, fire
man, in charge of the survey.
Cards will be prepared show
ing danger spots of each build
ing, interior plans, including
corridors, fire walls, etc., and
the cards will be kept on file
in the department salvage truck
so they may be instantly con
sulted by battalion chiefs when
going to fires. The salvage truck
carries the battalion chiefs to
fires.
Previous surveys have been
made, and Chief Roble says his
men are well Informed about all
buildings. But the information
may escape them under the
stress of going to a fire, and that
is the purpose of the cards to
enable them immediately to re
fresh their minds.
If anyone sleeps in the build
ing that will be noted on the
card. Caretakers sometimes sleep
in the buildings, the chief said,
