ing motion of the rear truck. There is
always a close cooperation between the
tillerman and driver. The man in the
rear must be alert to anticipate the
moves of the man in front. Failure to
do so might bring disaster at any turn.
One accident which occurred some
years ago had an amusing sequel. The
tillerman who related it yesterday asked
to remain anonymous.
The fireman in question was tiller-
man on a ladder truck which swept
several men from loading platform as
1t swung a tight corner. An automobile
had appeared suddenly before the truck,
and the tillerman, swerving to avoid 1t,
saw the 12-foot rear extension Of a
ladder work havoc among the bystand-
erS.
The most seriously injured was a
colored barber, whom the tillerman en-
countered later under embarrassing
circumstances. II was getting a shave
one day." the fireman said. land when
I looked up at the barber, who was
bending over me with razor in his
hand, ! saw the scar on his forehead
where that ladder had hit him"
The recognition was not mutual, how
ever, but the tillerman gave his trade
to another barber shop after that.
81 wanted to tell that barber we don't
have accidents in the department unless
they can't be helped" the tillerman
said. "but took another look at the
razor and decided to wait awhile"

LONDON. (N.A.N.A) A new play
by John Galsworthy is always an event

with a set of English visitors staying
in a small, old-fashioned Paris hotel,
who are caught by a devastating mid
night fire.
The guests, unknown to each other
until they meet as fugitives on the
roof, include small shopkeeper and his
prosaic wife, retired major. an elop-
ing couple and a celebrated author and
his family. All, however, are bent on
the same quest-the pursuit of life"
The cast includes Horace Hodges,
Eric Maturin, Frank Lawton (of Young
Woodley' fame), Cecily Byrne, Lydia
Sherwood and Ann Casson, Sybil
Thorndike'S younger daughter, who

GIANT FIRE TRUCKS
WIN PROUD RECORD
Driven in Traffic Hazards
They Have Been Free
From Crashes.

Skillful as river pilots and nervy as
racing drivers, the men who put the
Districts big hook and ladder trucks
through city traf1c are proud of their
safety record.
No serious accident has marred that
record for years, and surprisingly little
property damage has been left in the
wake of the giant trucks.
This is due largely to the rigid re-
quirements for drivers and tillermen.
Before taking either wheel of ladder
truck, they must have years of expert
ence.
Experience comes first. and, after
that reputation for nerve and quick
response to emergencies. The ability of
each man must be certified by his supe-
riors before he is eligible to drive.
Removing Danger.
Safety is also a matter of equipment
Many hazards are being removed
through the introduction of less cum
bersome type of ladder truck. Five of
the new 6-wheel trucks have replaced
the old 4-wheel vehicles in the District
Firemen generally agree that the new
trucks can be Unanswered more readily,
because the chassis is broken behind
the second set of wheels by pivot ar
rangement.
The front driver of 4-wheel truck,
1t was said, can be swung from his
course by the tillerman in the rear.
On the new trucks, however, the driver
has complete control of the front unit,
and no fault of the tillerman can de-
viate him into an obstruction.
The speed of the hook and ladder
apparatus through crowded streets
would be greatly facilitated II motorists
and street car motormen would eXer-
ole IL
the street intersections when they hear
the siren.
Making a Turn.
A general ignorance exists, the fire.
men say, as to the wide clearance de-
manded by a ladder truck in making
q turn. Should the front driver turn
right. the tfller1nan swings his rear
wheels left before turning right to
avoid the curb. This maneuver some
times throws the rear end of the truck
is feet farther across the street inter-
section.
Automobiles and street cars, stopped
at the intersection, often crowd the
trucks, and the flremen are compelled
to take circuitous route while respond
ing to an alarm.
Returning from a call, the trucks
sometimes are hedged in at intersec-
tons by other vehicles pulling along
side. The drivers, 1t was pointed out,
fail to take into account the side clear
Rnce required by the trucks in making
turns.
Despite every safety precaution, the
life Of the hook and ladder men is apt
TO be one narrow escape after another.
One bane of the tillerman's existence is
low-hanging boughS of shade trees. A
small limb can sweep an unWary tiller-
man from his perch, almost before he
knows what hit him.
Too, the solid tires and long body of
the truck produce extremely rough rid
ing for the tillerman. Sometimes he
must cling with hands and feet to save
himself from being catapulted to the
pavement while hitting 40 miles an
hour.
If the streets are rough or slippery,
he must hold his seat as best he can
while working to counterfeit the sway
