THE INDIAN VALLEY ;;E;C2;D --TPIURSDAY, OCT. 11, 1951

Fire Prevention and Civil
Defense Go Hand in
Fire prevention is an important part of civil defense. If
an enemy attacks this country, his bombs, whether they be
atomic, high explosive, or incendiary, will cause more damage
by fire than they will by blast. Hence, anything done to
make it hard for fires to start is a step towards preparing
your community to protect itself if war comes.
The majority of all fires start in
tr,,hpfles, rubbish, or stored odds
and ends that accumulate around
tle house. Closets, attics, and
ceilarsare the main source of
home fires, and plain ordinary good
housekeeping is a strong line of
defense against them.
Clean out your storage places.
You will be surprised at how many
burnable odds and ends are really
useless to you. Don't let them
make your home a fire hazard. Get
rid of them. If local welfare
agencies can't use them, call the
junk man.
Don't stop when you've cleared i
out the inside of your house. Go
after rubbish in your back yard, in
alleys and in vacant lots near your
home. Collect the rubbish and burn
it. Don't leave it around to burn if
an enemy bombs your city. Be
sure to burn rubbish in metal
containers.
Take a look at your electrical
system. Buy new plugs and cords
if your are worn. Get advice from
an electrician if your fuses blow
frequeatly They may be danger-
ously overloaded. His advice may
prevent a bad fire.
Every winter costly fires are
started by faulty furnaces, stoves,
and other heating plants. Some
result from too much soot in
chimneys. Others are caused by
rusted or cracked ldpes and fit-
tings. Look over your heating sys-
tem now. If your chimney needs
it, clean it out. If the furnace
pipes and connections are cracked
and rusted, replace them.
Teach your family not to put
magazines, papers, or clothing on
radiators or near open flames.
Don't hang flimsy curtains near
your kitchen stove. Don't allow
lamp shades to come in contact
with light bulbs. Remember that
such things don't have to touch
flame to burn. They will catch fire
simply because they are too close
to the heat for too long.
Gasoline, benzine, naptha, and
similar fluids should never be used
indoors. When mixed with air,
their vapors can be ignited by the
spark of a light switch or an
electric fan, or the tiny flame of a
pilot light. Keep such fluids in
tightly closed metal containers
outside your home.
And remember: oil-soaked rags,
especially rags that have been
used to spread quick-drying liquids
such as turpentine, paint thinners,
and some furniture polishes, can
catch fire by themselves. Oily rags
shoud be stored in air-tight metal
containers. It is best to keep them
outside the house.

From where I slr... Joe Marsh
--- Our Bank Says
"Help Yourself"
People around here need lots of
zmall change these days- what
with candy, gum, cigarette and soft
drink maines.., pay phones...
and those penny sales taxes.
Used to put a strain on our
bank. Changing money took up a
lot of time. Then the Chief Teller
Happy \\;Vilson, read about another
bank using a "help yourself"
change system. The directors de-
cided to see if it would work here.
They set out some big shallow
bowls full of nickels, dimes and
pennies with a sign saying "MAKE
YOUR OWN CHANGE." Works fine,
too. At the end of the day the
totals are never more than a
couple of cents under--or over
the right amount.
From where I sit, folks every-
where are pretty much alike, al-
though they may seem different.
Farmers and city folks, Republi-
cans and Democrats, thoe who en-
joy a glass of beer occasionally and
those who prefer something else--
we all usually try to live up to the
trust others have in us.

REPUBLICANS ADVISE
REGISTRATION CHANGE
FOR 1952 ELECTION
An official way for California
voters to express disapproval of
the actions of the administration
in Washington was proposed today
by the Republican State Central
Committee.
Robert S. Barkell, Berkeley,
chairman of the State Commit-
te's Victory Volunteers campaign,
said, "It is impossible this year
for citizens to express by their
vote the overwhelming demand for
a change in administration which
will give the United States new
leadership with a sense of moral
responsibility and integrity.
" But there is an official way
for thousands upon thousands of
California voters to go on public
record with an expression of their
disapproval that will carry weight.
If every California citizen who
disapproves of the present admin-
istration in Washington will make
sure that he or she is registered
as a Republican voter, the num-
ber of Registered Republicans
will be increased by at least one
million voters--and one million
voters is something that the Wash-
ington branch of the Pendergast
machine would recognize as a con-
crete demand for" the removal of
Communist sympathizers from
government, the end of graft, cor-
ruption and RFC favoritism, re-
duction of taxes by eliminating un-
necessary and wasteful expenses,
and the return of morality and in-
tegrity to high government posi-
tions."

U. S. MARINE BAND
AT SACRAMENTO
The United States Marine Band,
known the country over as one of
the nation's finest musical organ-
izations, will visit Sacramento for"
two performances Wednesday,
October 17th. The band's appear-
ance in Sacramento will be its first
since 1930, the last time the Pac-
ific Coast was included in the or-
ganization's Fall concert tour.
The Marine Band is the same
which provides the music for all
official functions in Washington,
D.C., whether it be a diplomatic
reception, a presidential in-
auguration, a VChite House tea or
a statesman's funeral. Organized
in 1789, the band soon was at-
tached to the White House, and
• since has been known as
President's Own.
The two performances in th
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium
will include a student matinee at
3 p.m. and an evening concert at
8:30 p.m.
Tickets for both performances
are on sale at the Civic Theater
Box Office. 1312 O Street, Sac-
ramento.
