Next Week Is Fire |
Prevention Week
The State of North Carolina has:
made wonderful progress alng many
lines but it has to its credit no more
striking achievements than the results
attained by the efforts of its firemen,
teachers, editors and other public-
spirited and forward-looking citizens
who have carried on for years a re
lentless warfare against fire waste
and its attendant loss of life and pro
perty. I am glad to be able to say
that there has been improvement
year by year for the past seven years
While the records of our State In
surance Department covering the sev
en years between January 1, 1922,
and January 1, 1929, show a total
fire loss of $44,799,499, a truly stag
gering amount, the loss was well be
low the national average and the fire
loss for the year ending December
31, 1928, was $4,912,925, a million
and a half of dollars under the seven
years’ average.
I attribute much of this improve-

ment to the educational work done
^throughout the State annually dur
ing “Fire Prevention Week” which,
ufalls this year in the week of Octo
ber 6th to 12th. While we are proud
of the progress made, the vre loss of
1928 was much too great for an en
lightener! citizenship such as ours, and
I appeal to all good citizens to be-
cmoe vitally interested in lessening
this economic waste.
But the property loss : n North
Carolina last year, heavy as it was,
was not our greatest loss from fire.
The Bureau of Vital Statistics o. our
State Board of Health reports that
two hundred and .seventy-one lives
were lost bv fire in North Carolina
last year. These appalling losses
were caused by carelessness and ig
norance of the fire hazard.
I therefore, set aside rhe week
of October 6th, to 12th as FIR--' PHo-
