(Special to The Courant.) NEW BRITAIN, Monday, Nov. The two platoon plan of fire service 111 occupy the attention of members of the common council Wednesday evening. The report of the board of fire commissioners, which was filed in the city clerk's office last week, is as follows: We respectfully beg leave to pres ent herewith a petition from the members of the permanent force of the fire department for the adoption of the two platoon plan of service. It has lven carefully investigated and considered by this bfiafd. A hearing in relation to it was held with a commence from the firemen, "our conclusions are: "The two platoon plan of service is Tipproved.

conditional however that forre of men in each platoon is adequate. The present permanent force of the fire department is 60 men, Irulu-'ing the chief engineer. The allowance of one day off in every seven reduces the ready force of the department to forty-two men daily. At meal r.i.urs. under the present conditions, owiim' to the limited number of men in the department, the force is considerably redueed for a nine hour period during the day.

In our opinion the department should not be operated vith a force of less than 411 men to rnan the necessary apparatus and equipment. For the operation of hose compa-ries, especially centrally located ones, this board would have not less than aix men responding with apparatus. In outside companies lesser numbers may be temporarily employed, but it should he distinctly understood that The companies shall be strengthened from time to time until such a time as the quota is of the proper strength. "t'nder ordinary conditions it requires three men to properly operate fine line of hose. As we contemplate the assignment of men on a two platoon plan.

43 members to a platoon, there would be a reserve strength of an equal number of trained men. Were it possible to have more men it would be better, but with that force, tmtil the department can be further strengthened we believe that the efforts of the Then will be productive of the same good results that have been ijhtained in the past.

"Allow me herewith to congratulate the league on the work they are doing in the city of Middletown. I have found information obtained bv the workers among the poor of the town to be of great aid to me in administering the work of mv offieein aiding these families, and believe that your association has canseo a oollMueiauie lieu 10 111c town in that the service and eneour- a p-i en our workers lo these families in time of temporary trouble or need of assistance have prevented them from applying: to the town, which would luive aided them in financial wav."

appears more like a service than charity. Tfcafuio headquarters are at Ko. 40S Main street. Office hours are from 9 a. m.
