A PROCLAMATION
BY THE GOVERNOR.
Every allusion to FIRE PREVENTION
DAY is a rebuke upon those
who fail to employ' the occasion to
rid their premises of unsafe conditions.
It required but a single defect in a
single residence to start the disastrous
conflagration in New Bern;
yet how many innocent people suffered
because of itl Just such a defect
may exist unnoticed in your own
home or office and jeopardize the lives
and property of thousands who keep
their premises clean and free from
firebreeding conditions, yet have NO
PROTECTION AGAINST THEIR
CARELESS NEIGHBORS.
That individual is derelict, that
State doomed that fails to recognize
Ikfi right of every citizen to protection
of his life and property; yet we
manuest little concern for either our
own safety or that of our neighbor
in permitting defects in construction
to exist and inflammable material to
accumulate on our premises.
If we accept the increasing fire loss
in our State as an index to our standard
of citizenship, it is high time
that our people became alarmed at
our degeneracy.
Fear, which is usually considered
a mark of cowardice, may be full of
virtue when that fear fosters the
protection of life and property from
tolV fire.
NOW. THEREFORE, I, CAMERON
MORRISON, Governor of North
Carolina, in order to promote a more
general fear of fire-breeding condi-,
tions that exact a heavy toll in lives
and property, and to stimulate, if
possible, greater individual effort in
MAKING NORTH CAROLINA SAFE
FOR LIFE AND PROPERTY, do
