Under present conditions com- panles are weakened three times daily, during meal hours, The full quota Is depleted because the men are out to their meals. They must wnswor alarms if they hear the bell but It is often the case that the fire at a point of long distance from their homes and they arrive I . The new system would da away with this condition as no man would leave his station until his relief had reported for duty. From the time a man re- ported until relieved he would be on duty, bringing his food with him from home, On Duty 24 Hourx present members are on duty 24 hours a day for days a weck. The only time they away from their stations is when they are out for their meals. Under the new system they would work $4 hours a week apiece and there would be no time lost. Men who work full time in the factory realize that this weekly schedule is far in excess of the du in private enterpriscs Only One Applicant At a recent meeting of the service commission there was applicant for a position on the fire department, This is slgnificant of the low obb of interest in fire department employment in New Dritain. The average man will not acept appoint- ment because of the unpleasant work- ing conditions. If the two platoon system is adopted, membership in the department will be attractive and the applications from able bodied men wha want to live like human beings are expected to increase in number. In connection with this, it is pointed out that ex-service men will be given preference in making appointments to the regular force after the present force of call men has been cared for. If is sdid that out of the present call force few would accept appointment ta the regular force, All. Working Together The older men in the department are working just as cnthusiastically as the younger men for the adoption of the two platoon system although they realize that they are too far along in years to reap any great benefit. But they want to build up the ¢epartment and to pave the way for advantages for younger men that they themselves have not enjoyed. Of Interest to Voters The foregoing points, the firemen believe, arg of interest to all New Britaln vofers. Members of the de- partment are confldent that the pub- lic, when fully informed conc erning what the two platoon system really means, will attend the city meeting and. give them their support is At ment wix ret of the depart- ono PLAYING POLO.
