tional help. He said the fact that
fire spotters"-the man on high

intensified training which the Dis

Tense is now planning for them.
The training course. for fire
watchers, Mr.. Saunders said, was
only 10 hours. Assistant deputy

stepped up by the appointment Of

The quick thinking Of = taxicab

vealed in Municipal Court yesterday
when Samuel E., De Vane. %, Of IL
Third street Sc. was held for the

robbery. Judge Almond Scott set
bond at 1850.
The cab driver, Reuby r. Long, Of

Mr.. Saunders said that = single

cendiary bombs and going 200 miles
an hour, could drop q bomb every

other buildings would be certain to
be hit"
On the basis of their own expert
ence, he said the British esti'r" te
that about one out of every six In
cendiaries dropped starts q fire,
which means that one bomber can
start 332 fires.
