Mr. FOUNTAIN. Mr. Speak er, we all know how devasta ting In both life and property fires can be. A day seldom passes without an account In the newspapers about another tragic loss from fire.

I would like to call my col leagues attention to a record of fire loss?that Is, an ab sence of loss?that I am sure Is unparalleled In this country and undoubtedly throughout the world. The volunteer fire depart ment of Warrenton, N. C., an old and distinguished town in my district has not lost a home to fire In almost 100 years. Think of It ? 99 years with out a residence destroyed. No words can properly pay tribute to the dedication and ability of the members of Warrenton's volunteer fire men. The town Is to be no less commended foi Its unstinting suppoit ^f Its fire department. Both the residents and the firemen have every reason to be proud of a record that would be difficult to match. I commend to my colleagues an editorial describing this outstanding town and Its fire men published In the February Issue of the ; lutuallzer by the Carolina- Association of Mu tual Insurance Agents, Inc.: A PERFECT RECORD-99 YEARS "Few, If any, fire depart ments can boast 'not a home lost to fire in nearly a cen tury.' Yet, this is the record of one of North Carolina's old est volunteerfiredepartments Taxes We i egret that we do not remember the name of the exchange from which the fol lowing bit of verse was taken, but expect they will strike a responsive cord from many Editor.
