Firemen in Oregon
To Help Spot Fire
Hazards in Homes
Salem Starting on May 13
and continuing through the sum
mer, firemen throughout the
tate will call on every house
holder in their communities
help the occupant spot possible
fire and life hazards, State Fire
Marshal Robert B. Taylor an
nounced today.
"The opportunity of receiving
a free, courteous and thorough
home fire inspection is some
thing that every home owner,
renter and parent should take
advantage of for his own safety
and peace of mind," Taylor
pointed out. "Home inspections
are made only on the invitation
and consent of the householder.
When the firemen inspector goes
Into the home he is hoping to
show the occupant, simply and
briefly, how to recognize and
eliminate the fire hazards that
are causing the majority of the
home fire," Taylor emphasized.
"Home fire prevention is ra
pidly becoming one of the most
important operations of the fire
department, as attested by the
fact that over 82 per cent of all
our fire claims in the state were
the result of dwelling fires and
72 per cent of the fire deaths
occurred in home?," Fire Mar
ihall Taylor stated.
Burntd to Death
State fire marshall records
how that 16 children under five
years of age burned to death
in homes during 1956. Eleven
of these deaths were small chil
dren left alone and unsupervised
while the parents were absent
from the home. The fire causes
in most cases were careless
smoking and overheated heating
devices.
The fire marshal noted that as
housewives get ready for spring
and summer it is a good time to
correct many of the worst fire
hazards in and about the house.
Before the fireman inspector
arrives, it is recommended that
the following be done: remove
rubbish from the house, partic
ularly attics, closets and cellars:
clean up winter accumulation of
rubbish m garage, workshop and
yard; clean out the furnace,
chimney and flues; keep plenty
of ash trays in all parts of the
house and use them.
"Home fire safety principles
as inculcated by the fireman in
spector have proven beyond a
doubt property and life loss due
to home fires can be reduced
with little effort and at no cost
to the home owner," Taylor said.
