His four-point program for fire prevention education is as follows: "Promote realization of individual responsibility in preventing fires during the present emergency. "Create an interest and desirabil ity in the campaign by showing how directly fires can sap the strength of our fighting forces. "Develop a knowledge of what constitutes fire hazards. "Initiate a habit of adopting daily fire prevention inspections." "The first line of defense is the fire extinguishers available at points of hazard.

The following telegram was dispatched to the re gional office in Minneapolis: "The Montana war council opposes the employment by the federal gov ernment of any additional employes In connection with salvage opera fions, or collections in the state, as being needless and a wrongful use of monev being raised by the sale of war bonds." "We believe the people of Mon •ana resent the idea of well paid r ed»ral employes, most of whom know nothing about salvage opera ions, running around the state at the expense of the taxpayers, con tributing but little, if anything, to ■he work which is being done en tirely by volunteers." was the state ment made by one of the council members in further explanation of the motion. The couneM emphasized that "there is no obiection to the reten tion of E. J. Keeley, state salvage na^ager, as a paid employe. It is o the contemplated employment of six additional employes that we vig orously object." FDR icuyi: IZs o i Every worker should increase the amount of bonds he or she is buying. r Æ *.
