After considerable agitation con- cerning the establishing of fire pro- lection for tf town. Bolton kasica post of the American Legion has called a meetin. for Thursday eve ming at which me the members will have the problem of adequate fire protection placed before them and will consider means for relief.
 Officials of the post have arranged for the presence of a Rhode Island authority on the subject who will eX- plain just what apparatus and meth ods will be nee, ary to place Ser lin under modern and complete system of fire rrotection. From this basis. the post expects to work out a volunteer system that will be sub. mitted 10 the vo IS for their ap- proval and support.
 The early plans of the organiza
 tion as completed thus far deal With the supposition that the posts mem
 bcrs comprise volunteer batillion which would be subject to call for fires. With the aid of the entire town and the Xisting fire districts, sufficient al aratds could be pur- chased to outG. the company and

give the town its long hoped for To- cal protection.
 nmander rarold Nentres of the post, in company with the other officials of the association, states that although talk of such protec- ton has long been subject for de- bate, it is time that sombody take the question in hand for immediate action. As the post has always been a forerunner of civic advance ment, it is thought that it will re- lceive the suppo~. of the town in it's new venture. Following the discus sion Thursday evening, committee appointed by the post will work out the details before submitting them to the public for its approval. The separate fire districts will also be ap- preached for their endorsement of the plan.
 The post also wants it understood that such a plan, if approved, would give service to the entire township, not emitting certain districts, as is the case at present. A chemical en- zine would presumably be the choice of q committee, they state. as water conditions in parts of the town pre- vent anot' type from operating efficiently.
