MAY REMOVE COATS,
Rules for Firemen at Stations Are
Amended.

The Commissioners have amended
the regulations of the fire depart
ment to permit firemen to go without
their uniform coats on the apparatus
floor and also when on watch duty.
The former rule, which required
the men to be in full dress uniform
while on the first floor of engine
houses. except during June, July and
August. was the cause of some dis
satisfaction among the men when it
was adopted about six months ago.
In recommending. the changes Fire
Chief Watson said:
II believe that conditions in the fire
department will. be improved. not
only from standpoint of content
ment among the men, but also from
standpoint of efficiency, if the sec
tions in question are amended to per-
nit the men to appear on the appa-
ratus floor on the inside of the build
ing throughout the year without
their coats, so that upon receipt Of
an alarm the men will be in a posi-
tion to respond Immediately. without
the delay of removing their uniform,
coats"
The men will still be required to
wear their coats outside of the en-!
gine house. except during June, July
and August.
