THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA |COAST GUARD IS 10 OBSERVE FIRE | TION WEEK | pREVEN 0 w LINCOLN, Nl‘bl ska, Oct. 6.—The | | KETCHIKAN, Alaska, Oct. 6 SUPERBOMBER 11 October 8th through 15th is desig- | []c nated as official Fire Prevention Week throughout the nation as a reminder to the people of the im- portance of fire prevention, especi- ally in time of war. The U. S. Coast Guard is re- sponsible for the tremendous. task of guarding waterfront facilities’ of the United States and the import- ant facilities of the Territory .as well, Their vigilance is against fire, sabotage and other problems by means of harbor patrols anc vessel and dock inspection. Fire Fighting Taught The largest fleet of fire boats ir the world is operated by the Coast Guard, having more than 260 boats available 24 hours a day. A special Ischool is maintained at Fort Mc- Henry, Maryland, which embraces fire fighting and numerous related subjects. Here, men are taught to put out the various types of fires including oil, and are required to extinguish each type of fire with the latest in equipment. They are further trained in the handling of explosives for prevention of fires. | Fire Hazards A major part of the Coast| Guard's job in fire prevention is| in education of the public in fire| hazards. One such hazard in this locality is the possible spillage of inflammable liquids on navigable | waters in the vicinity of vessels,| piers and docks, Some of the in-| cidents are attributable to mech- | anical failures, others to deteriora- | tion of vessels. Typical instances involve - leakage at rivets, leakage | through corroded piping, failure to tighten connections, bursting of cargo hose, failure to'check wvalves which were intended to be closed, | wrorng manipulations ‘of valves and | overflowing of tanks. In these cases | no immediate fire resulted but the possibilities of future fire hazard remains since these inflammable substances coat the under struc- tures of piers and wharves and would intensify any blaze originat- | ing in these properties. Prevention And Control These instances are typical of | accidents which the Coast Guard Marine Inspection Division is doing its best to foresee and prevent Theirs is the job of inspecting | vessels and their equipment fm} the protecting of lives and property, as well as holding boards of ‘in- vestigation to prevent recurrences of tragedy. i The Coast Guard Captains of tim |Port carry on fire prevention werk about the piers and wharves. Theis is the job of prevention and con- | trol. One incident resulted in la commendatory letter from an Amiy |Commanding Officer, because of |quick action by Coast Guardsmen !last September 9. His letter of jcommendation in part: | “I noticed particularly that, dur- ing the progress of the fire, they |assisted materially in controlling |and extinguishing it, with com- plete disregard for their own per- |sonal safety and through the fine efforts of your men, the blaze was |quickly extinguished, which ‘xul ed in considerable saving |property for the Government.” Cooperation Of Citizens It is through the cooperation of lthe citizens in an area that fires |can be prevented. This cooperation has been excellent in this District {for the protection of lives and | property. The good results have not been accomplished by the Coast Guard alone, nor can they be so| |accomplished. They require the close cooperaiton of all interested parties, which has been forthcom- ing without stint. Throughout the nation the Coast Guard’s record has been excellent. More than 18 per cent of all water- | front fires and vessel fires were first detécted by Coast Guard per- sonnel; Coast Guardsmen and apparatus have responded to 70 per cent of all waterfront alarms throughout the country, and their units have extinguished or assisted | materially the municipal foi in | extinguishing 31 per cent of all waterfront fires.
