Austin. Sept. 9—Urging State-
wide observance of the annual
Fire Prevention Week, Marvin
Hall, fire Insurance commissioner,
has written over 125 mnyorr of
Texas cities and towns requesting
tmir continued suppe •■’ of xvhat
be terms a "moat and
worthwhile civic project.” The
w» k of October 3 to 9 has been __'
ch> ,<tn and appropriatciv named
Fire Prevention Week ot 1937.
Adding impetus to the move-
ment will be a proclamation is-
sued by Governor Allred request-
ing cooperation and support from
"every Texan interested in per-
forming a distinct: service to his
State, to his community, and to
himself.".
"Fire uncontrolled Is one of the
most serious problems that con-
fronts us today.” Hall declared in
his letter to the Texas Mayors
“For years it has taken far too
heavy a toll in life and property.
May we suggest that you and
your city officials, fire marshall |,
fire chief and his department be-
gin making preparations at once
for the proper observance of Fire
Prevention Week this year.”
Tersely expressing the theme of
the Week’s activities. Hall wrote:
"The fire that never starts will
never get out of control. Fires
can be controlled, but not until
every single Texas citizen accepts
fire prevention as his Individual
responsibility.”
“Since fire losses have a direct
bearing upon the fire insurance
rates which the people pay," Hall
explained, "there are a great many
practical benefits occurlng from
effective fire prevention. Fire pre
vention is a habit and easily ac-
quired; and It is most pleasant
to practice, for by practicing it,
a life may be saved or a ilisaster-
ous fire prevented.”
Calling for immediate action.
Hall said: ’Today, not tomorrow—
for tomorrow it may be too Urie-
ls the time for you to call a fire
prevention meeting. We suggest
that you invite representative bu-
siness men and women of your
community, as well as school tea-
chers, preachers, civic and patrio-
tic workers, and boy scouts. It Is
everyone’s obligation to prevent
fires. Act today!”
