Severe Gcrlifornio Fire Gonditions Put 'Sqnlqnq' Into Action Oct. | 5
State Forester Francis H. Raymond announced Oct. 15 that the Division of Forestry "Santana" Task Force, being placed in operation immediately, consists of the movement of 75 forest personnel, 25 pieces of pumper apparatus, 10 bulldozers and transports and other personnel-carrying vehicles from the five Northern and Central California districts of the Division to Southern California. It is in its third year of operation.
Raymond stated that major fires and serious fire conditions currently existing in Southern California prompted his decision to place the operation in effect immediately and not wait for the previously scheduled date of October 19 r,r'hen the Task Force would have started movement according to plan.
Ten pumpers and personnel were also dispatched to assist with the large fire in the Angeles National Forest, which was still burning out of control. Three new blazes were reported Oct. 15 in Southern California: one in Topanga. Canyon, Los Angeles county, and two in San Diego county, one near Lilac, north of Escondido, and one near Palomar l\Iountain.
Raymond stated that the fire season in Northern and Central California is not ended and will not be until additional rains are received in sufficient quantity. Southern California is historically subjected to "Santana" conditions consistipg of high temperatures, low humidity, and high velocity winds in the fall months.
Raymond urged everyone to be especially careful with fire and to cooperate in every way possible to observe the necessary precautions and help prevent damaging and destructive forest and watershed fires throughout all of California.

"Being in the special manufacturing end of the business, most of our craftsmen are artists and designers and have been identified in the woodworking business for many years," he continued. "For this type of business we maintain complete stocks of all species of imported and domestic skins to meet any and all production problems," Pete said.
