Moses to the editor, I would like to point out, for Mr. Moses’ information, that the proposed Adrian Fire district is not just a dream of a so - called “Adrian brain trust,” but the dream of over 250 petition signers and that the petitions were started by the Adrian Lions club only after the club was requested to do so by farmers in the area. In soliciting for signatures, the Lions club found only two who refused to sign; perhaps Mr. Moses was one of these, the other being a person on the extreme edge of the district. So with this kind of support, the petitions were submitted to the county court. Now if an intelligent person will but analyze the situation, he will find several reasons for sup porting such a fire district. First, and foremost, the favorable effect on insurance rates when the dis trict is properly formed. Second, the feeling that there is some protection for the biggest business in the area: the Adrian Public Schools, valued at $750,- 000.00. Third, it will provide some assurance that there will be help on any fire in the district. We may not save the primary fire, but will save thousands in sec ondary property and equipment. I am certain that the good solid voters will back up the petition of wanting this fire district. G. E.
