Motor Trucks For Rescue Work.

-
The recurrence of mine disasters,
revealing as ii does the almost pitt
able equipment that is available for
the relief of entombed miners, has
served TO emphasize the need OF
modern apparatus and appliances
with which to carry on rescue work,
and acting upon the suggestion con-
seyed By the successful use OF com
merciaI motor vehicles in other fields.
the Bureau of Mines of the Depart
ment of the Interior at length has
developed a plan which reyolyes
chiefly around the use OF a new and
special type of vehicle thoroughly and
properly equipped for the purpose.
Instant access TO everything the
truck VARIES for rescue or hospital
work IS absolutely essential. OF
course. and for this reason the body.
except fer the space occupied by the
crew. IS virtually a series of lockers
end compartments and The interest
inE feature OF them is that in nearly
every case they open from the out
side and are held closed only BY
snatch hooks.
The equipment OF the truck Is most
complete: the devices i carries form
A. unconrnonly long list. including
even the Gagged canary that has prov
ed 50 useful in determining the exis-
tenee O. poisonous gases BY way
of emphasizing the great amount of
apparatus that IS cairred it is inter
estiug to note that there are included
\ 0 less than ten complete resuscist-
ing outfits. The oxygen tanks. OF
which there are six. are carried be
meath the body on a sub-frame and so
placed that they a be drawn forth
from outside the truck. The oxygen
pump IS operated BY the truck en-
cine and is mounted AT the left side
Ct the chassis. Directly behind the
drivers seat there is a series OF com
~partnlents containing a tent, p feet
OF hose. three miners picks, three
saoyels. a four-pound sledge hammer
and tNo axes. The seats for the crew
are behind these compartments and
beneath them there Is more storage
space with another large locker be
lev the steps at the ree These
drawers serve TO hold saws. hose
couplings. reducers. spanners and
za0 feet OF half-ineh rope.
IN the central compartments
along the body there Is a life line
reel. a complete telephone system for
mine Communication. and a various
assortment OF neeessaries such as
compasses. tools. and snatch blocks
and tackle Stretehsrs and FIRE ex-
tinguishers are disposed on the out
side Of the body BY means OF special
hooks. On the running boards there
are two more large boxes which are
used 10 house mine lanterns and
other miscellaneous equipment. Com
plotting the equipment there is an
eight-ineh swivel headlamp mounted
