Use Fire Alarms,
Is Mayors Advice

Urging the public TO take every
preventive precaution with regard
to fires during the present telephone
strike, Mayor Ole Hanson has issued
the following statement:
ITO the Public: At a consultation
held by the mayor and the board of
fire chiefs. the fire hazard during the
present telephone strike was dis.
cussed and the following recommen.
dations during the strike adopted
That during the crippled condi.
ton OF the telephone system thruout
the city, which may greatly handicap
the fire department In receiving tele.
phone alarms. they recommend that
business men, property owners and
the public at large at once look up
and familiarize themselves with the
location of the nearest street fire
alarm box, and in the case of fire do
not delay, but Immediately pull the
nearest fire alarm box, and do not
depend solely upon reaching the de.
partment by telephone. which may be
out Of service at the time.
1.-THE quicker the department gets
an alarm the quicker they can re.
spond, and to the firemen the first
five minutes is more than the next
half hour. DO NOT DELAY THE
ALARM, but pull the nearest street
box at once and have someone stand
there to tell the department when
they arrive, where the fire is"

Mrs. a. @. Victoria. who lives

she heard two shots fired about
midnight Sunday. These shots
she declared. came from the vicinity
of the bridge. August ToeIIner
proprietor of the gas station near
there, also told the police of hear
ing two shots. but set the time as
around a. tn. Monday.
The original theory OF the police
that an escaped prisoner from
either the county Jail or Monroe
murdered Ryan has been dropned
The fact that the same man an
peared to hire the car last weeI,
blasted that theory.
