Steadily, but surely, money {s being subscribed for the establishment of a inew fire department in the Bethesda area of Montgomery County contigu- ous to the District of Columbia. With the drive uncompleted in any one com- munity more than $15.000 has been subscribed by property holders and business men. Flying squadrons are busily engaged in practically every ter- ritory to be given much-needed fire protection, and will remain active un- i « holder has been thusiastically, as all persons residing in the area, which has more than $30,- 000,000 worth of residential and busi- ness property, realize that adequate fire protection is absolutely essential. The territory has heretofore depended upon the District of Columbia, Rock- ville and_Kensington departments to fight its fires, and as a result of the time required for these companies to reach the scene much property loss from fire has resulted. Tonight at the Masonic Temple at Bethesda the flying squadrons will as- semble and report the result of their activities during the past week and lay plans for their work during the coming week. On Thursday night the people in the town of Somerset will hoM a mass meeting, at which time the fire-protec- tion campaign in that section will be formally launched. Mayor Stohlmann has called this meeting, and it is ex- pected that Somerset will go “over the top” in her community appropriation. mittee appointed at a recent mass meeting made its report on the fire needs of Chevy Chase, section 2. The committee recommended the use of the present library building as a fire station and that one plece of ap- paratus be purchased in co-operation with the - other sections of Chevy Chase to care for the fire néeds of this community. The department, it was recommended, should be operated on a part-pald, part-volunteer basis and it was suggested that the various sections of Chevy Chase co-operate and get legislation through the next State Leglislature creating the whole Chevy Chase area into a single fire district for the purposes of taxation for the maintenance of the fire sta- tion. The committee from section 2 will approach committees from other sections in working out some satisfactory plan. . Citizens in other sections will hold meetings at once to determine whether they shall accept the proposals from sectfon No. 2. employees. “SERVICE” As We Hntgrpretfi It.
