PUT Kanab Volunteer Fire Department Boasts Effective, Efficient Service Kanab is very fortunate to have a fine volunteer fire department. This week they answered a call to a fire in southeast Kanab (pictured above) and took care of the blaze in a very efficient manner. During the past two. months the department has answered a number of calls and whether false alarms or for real they have been on the job in record time and have discharged their duties in a fine manner. According to Marvin Button, fire chief, the department has 27 members all serving on a volunteer basis. We are allowed 35 members and could use more, Chief Button said. In order to become a member of the Kanab phone first will press a button on the phone which activates the siren at the fire station. The place of the fire is taken and when the first fireman reaches the station he gets the location of the fire and writes is on a blackboard, then takes the engine and other firemen available to the scene of the fire. When other members arrive they check the blackboard and immediately report to the fire scene. One pet peeve of the department is naturally the person (often children wanting to hear the siren) who turns in a false alarm knowingly. Another is local citizens following the truck to the fire. This can be an inconvenience to the department and may elow down their effectiveness. If a fireman is In his personal car on his way to a fire, and there are many other citizens driving, running, and walking to the fire also, It can slow him down and thus delay the work of an otherwise efficient department. Volunteer Fire Department a man must be 21 years of age and pass a physical examination to satisfy state requirements, according to .Button.

President of the h Idaho Farmers Union stated today that Secretary Freeman, acted upon the recommendation of Farmers Union, to increase dairy price supports to avert a dangerously tight supply situation and to reverse trends in the dairy industry which have seen dairy farmers leaving the farm at an alarming rate at the same time that cows are being slaughtered at record volume. Secretary Freeman raised price supports for manufacturing milk an to $4.00 a hundredweight with a corresincrease of 50c ponding increase for calculating producer prices on drinking or Utah-Sout- fluid milk. Farmers Union has long advocated this step, realizing that the decline in dairy production must be stopped, and that our dairy farmers must realize a better income. This is the first increase in dairy products that will directly benefit the dairy farmer, Mr. Shisler said. |
