FIRE tO55E5
(Continued lrom Page 14) must observe these restrictions at all times.
Early detection and reporting of a fire is mandatory i{ the fire is to be controlled in it's earliest stages. In large storage yards, reliable means for prompt transmissions of fire alarms to the fire department should be provided at convenient and accessible locations in the yard. Competent watchman service is a recommended procedure for night hours and all non-operating periods. Watchman and other personnel should be fully instructed in the use of alarm or fire reporting systems, fire extinguishers and all other fire protection equipment. Each employee should be fully aware of his duties and responsibilities in case of a fire emergency.
The Chaiienge
We have reviewed many considerations with which the lumber industry must concern itselves. However, there lies ahead a very meaningful challenge. The industry has made notable progress in developing methods for establishing greater fire retardancy in wood products installed in residences and businesses. I am positive that we have only scratched the surface in this important aspect. Lives are being sacrificed each and every day across this land due to fire. A large percentage of these human beings could have survived the catastrophe had they been given an additional three to seven minutes
Deburs Both Sides
The new Shaviv II has a solid carbide insert which quickly deburs both sides of an edge in one operation. It can be used on all steels, including exotics, as well as other metals and plastics.
The carbide insert is indexable on 12 sides and can also be indexed flat to be used as a scraper. A radius can be ground into the insert for round edges. It can also be used to chamfer edges.
The shaft adjusts up to 4" in length. A new easy-grip handle features a blade storage compartment. Accessories available include 12 different blades and 3 different handles. Price including handy pocket case is $6.95.

of protection from the heat and gases. search programs are in a position to devise methods and materials which will provide that extra three to seven minutes,
Doors must not only be a fixture to provide an enclosure, but also must be designed to accomplish a protective fire separation; with a meaningful curtailment of heat and gas transfer. Means of egress must be designed to assure the occupants of a reasonable access to an exterior exit. Flame retardant paints have provided a partial solution, but products must be available at an economic level which will guarantee their use on a much broader base.
A final observation would be the concern which I hold for the natural resources of this country. While as a Chief of an urban fire department, I am not exposed to the problems of the periodic forest conflagration, such fires are exacting a tremendous toll on the forestry resources of this country each and every year. This toll, together with the waste, the natural losses and the ever increasing consumption dictates a concern for and a re-evaluation of the future of our forest products.
The lumber industrv and the fire service have inheritea a loitrt responsibility; lye must strive in every way to maintain our precious forest reserves; we must market a product that is serviceable, decorative and safe; we must research with untiring efforts improved methods of making our homes and businesses fire safe for our loved ones and friends.
