The Arizona post., 1960-10-28

The 1860 membership was
estimated at nearly $4,000.
The continued membership
growth was attributed to the
opening of new Center build
ings resulting in membership
gains in those Centers, and
to improved Center pro-
grams and services and
greater participation in Cen
ter activities. Another con-
tributing ia ctor was the
trend toward family member
ship and away from individ-
ual membership.
One out of every three
Jewish Community CenterS
and YM-YWHAs affiliated
with the JWB now enrollS
members only on a family
basis because Centers are
rapidly becoming family-ori-
ented and providing more
programing for the family
unit and for every age group
in the family.
An increase in the proper
ton of self-support over com
munity support was a sig
nificant change between 1857
1858, the JWB report de-
clares. Center revenue from
membership dues and service
fees rose by 10.5 percent be-
tween 1857 and 1858 while
receipts from Jewish Wei
fare Funds and Federations
and Community Chests and
United Funds rose by rs per-
cent. In 1858 Centers secured
an average of 81 percent of
their income from internal
sources compared with 55.7
percent in 1857.

w turned and burst into flames
near the crossroads hamlet of Ceres,
California, Ii was the volunteers who
saved the town from destruction.
They emptied their last three gallons
of foam onto the burning gasoline,
holding the fire in check until help
arrived from nearby departments.
Almost every day somewhere in
the United States, our million or so
volunteer firemen, organized into
nearly 10000 companies, perform a
similar vital service for their COM
munities. In addition to their fire en-
gineS, many volunteers operate rescue
trucks, too, with oxygen tanks and
respirators, to rush to the side of
victims of heart attack, suffocation,
choking, electric shock, and other
critical emergencies.
On recent Christmas Eve, vol
unteers at North Bellmore, Long Is
land, were called from traffic duty at
St. Raphael's Church to give first aid
to an elderly woman who had col
lapsed. Upon arrival, they found she
had been given up for dead. Using
their new electric inhalator for the
first time, they brought her back to
consciousness.
Besides these more spectacular ac-
tivities, they have lot of mundane
duties TO perform, such as inspecting
schools, homes and industries, and
giving public talks on fire prevention.
They are usually leaders in all civic
affairs and often Spearhead the fund
drives. Although they are nonpolitical
as to party, they exert considerable
influence in town matters.
Volunteer Firemen are still living
with a reputation which they may
have earned in earlier, more happy
go-lucky days of being crowd of

is that volunteer fire fighting has be-
come highly-skilled, highly-techni-
cal avocation, demanding many hours
of homework and specialized inStruc-
ton. There are training schools now
in 80 states. Courses are going on at
the rate of IL a week. The average
course is 80 hours, and the things a
fireman has to learn would easily fill
big, fat book.
Our new suburban areas would be
dangerously short on fire protection if
II weren't for their volunteers. Many
new communities are handicapped by
blind or incompleted streets; lot
have no water systems yet, or hy-
drantS. The volunteers often meet this
situation by adding bumpers which
carry their own auxiliary tanks. In
some places they have drilled a sys-
tenn of controlled, spaced water-wellS,
for emergency supply.
Many towns cannot yet afford a
paid department. If they'd had to wait
for cash in hand before they had a
fire department. some of them might
have burned down by now.
A Volunteer Department is costly
enough. First there's the firehouSe-
no mean item at today's prices. Then
there's the equipment. A pumper may
cost $4,000; hook and ladder
$4,000; rescue truck SIS to $20,-
600; all in all, the equipment bill may
run not far under $4,000. Luckily,
the volunteers credit is braSSbound,
for they are a membership corpora
ton of responsible citizens.
To get up the needed funds, many
a town has depended on the self
starting reSourcefulness of its volun-
teers. Beyond the customary carni-
walls, socials, door-to-door solicita-
tons and so on, the extent of their
ingenuity is boundless.
