ARP PLANES To BE
USED FOR PATROL
OF BIG FORESTS
Announcement Made By Act
ing National Forester
Southwestern Reserve May
Be Selected for Trial.

That national forest in the south
western district will he selected as one
of the stations for the trial of air
planes IN forest patrol was regarded
as likely by Frank c. w Pooler, as
sistant district forester
The headquarters of the southwest
ern district, which includes New
Mexico and Arizona. had not received
any direct information. Mr.. Pooler
said Sunday. but word had come, to
him in n round about way that the
designation of the Coconino national
forest IN Arizona was contemplated.
The supervisor of the Coconino has
headquarters at Flagstaff and If the
forest IS named as one of those at
which the airplane patrol Is to be
'ried ont Flagstaff is likely to be the
flyers base.
1t now is certain that airplane
patrol will be given trial by the
forest service. A press dispatch to
the Journal received Sunday. said
that II. f. Potter of Washington. d.
g., acting national forester. had made
formal announcement at Boise, Ia,
that the forest service. aided by the
war department. would start the
patrol early. next summer. He said
that Boise would be one of the sta
tons from which forests within a
radius of ESQ miles would be patroled
by flyers, but did not indicate whether
or not any other had been selected,
Forest service officials OF the south
western district knew that the pos
sibility OF airulane patrol was being
Investigated, but they did not know
funtl yesterday that It had been def
ntely decided to give the new system
a test. The dispatch telling of the
acting national forester's announce
ment was the first information they
had that the decision had been
reached
Airplane patrol was believed by
them to be entirely feasible. provld-
ing the forest service could get planes
for the work at comparatively low
cost. The cost of the machines here
tofore has been viewed as the great
est obstacle. The fact however that
the war department will cooperate,
according to Mr. Potters statement,
offers a solution. The war depart
ment could furnish the planes at n
price that would overcome this diff
ficulty, having more than 1t needs
since the cessation of hostilities
against the Germans,
Officials pointed out that the air
plane patrol would not only increase
the efficiency of the forest service S
| fire protection system. but also hene-
| fit stockmen. The national forester
said they would aid stockmcn by
helping find lost herds of sheep and
cattle.
Skilled pilots would be employed
by the forest service, the national
forester stating that the men who will
make IN the patrols will be those
who have had training at army avia-
ton fields, The patrols probably will
/ include at least some who have seen
active service in France, thus offering
another opening for the daring youths
who are reported to be loath to re-
turn to the tame pursuits of civil life.

or barrels is shown to be the Citys
greatest fire menace in the report for
the fire department for the year end
ed Dece nber 81, which is to be sub
mittcd to the commissioners shortly
by Chief Fred NJ. Russell
The report attributed seventeen of
the lS4 fires that occurred in the year
to ashes, the greatest number for
which the firemen were able to learn
the cause. The cause of thirty-three
fires was reported to be unknown.
The well known combination of child
rem and matches also furnished a
leading cause, furnishing eight fires.
Nine were due to cverheated stoves.
Fewer fires were attributed to other
common causes.
The efforts of the fire department
to reduce the danger from the careless
handling of ashes ALSO is SHOWN in the
report. which states that ten persons
were cited to appear in police court
in the year for violation of the ordi-
nance which requires that metal ash
receptacles be used
