Washington put into operation at s
O'Clock this morning the two-platoon
system in the municipal fire department.
The change from the old plan of twenty
four hours duty daily for firemen, with
one day off in five. was made without
the slightest hitch
Mr.. Brownlow at Station.
Commissioner Brown1ow and Fire
Chief Wagner were present at No. en-
CINE company this morning when the
first shift was made.
Officers and men of the company were
lined up for the visit of the Commits
sioner and the chief of the department
and for the institution of the new order
commissioner Brownlow spoke briefly on
the benefits and improved conditions
expected TO result from the change, and
thanked the members of the company,
the membership of the department,
Chief Wagner, the citizens of Washing
ton and Congress for the hearty CO.
operation of all in making possible the
institution of the modern system.
Chief wagner also spoke, expressing
qualification at the modernization of the
department through the institution OF
the two-platoon system and voicing the
qualification of all members, as well as
or the thousands of Washingtoniaus
who have interested themselves in bring
ing 1t about, at the successful culmina-
ton of their efforts.
With personnel of more than 6or
ofhcerS and men for actual duty and a
constant increase in this number due &c
release of men from military service
and to the fact that Congress has pro-
'vided funds to make possible the en-
largement OF the department, it was not
expected any trouble would be expe-
rienced in making the shifts All of the
details were worked out before the new
system became effective, the men on
duty last night being relieved by the
men of the day platoon at o'clock.
The shifts are to be made practically in
the same manner as are the shifts from
day to night forces of the police DEPART
ment.
Hours of Duty.
Men on the day platoon are to work
fourteen hours, according to the pres
ent arrangement, while the night men
will be on duty the other ten hours.
Later it is hoped a more even division
of the day may be worked out without
detriment to the efficiency of the de-
partment.
Agitated internationally for the last
eight or ten years, work for the es-
Enlistment here of the two-platoon
system became active and aggressive
held the previous April by the City
Firemen's Union, affiliated with the
International Association of Fire
fighters. To Capt. Edward o. Conner.
for twenty-three years a member of
the District fire department, is due
much of the credit for Inauguration
of the active campaign that resulted
in the establishment of the two
platoon system here.
Delays Overcome.
Delayed because of inability to OBJ
tain the necessary men, the two
platoon system at last was provided
for by the District Commissioners
two weeks ago, the order originally
being Tor the putting into effect Of
the system February Is. AS men be-
came more readily obtainabIe and as
applications for appointments on the
department became more numerous,
it was found possible to anticipate
that date by few days, the order
putting the two-platoon system into
effect being made operative today.
