VVFA, MVFCA
WILL COOPERATE
A plan for coopera
tion between the Valley
Voluntocr Fire Associa
tion and the Mutr.riuska
Valley Farmers Co-opera
ting Association was
outlined at the MVFCA
bo rd meeting last week0
Al Hagen, chairman of
the fire organization,
was pr. sent ?. t the meet
ing.
The plan, as proposed
by J mes Wilson, Co-op
manager, would make the
MVFCA u member .of the
Association, provided
ono of the Association’s
pi' cf s of fire- fighting
equipment shall be stor
ed in the Co-op area0
That truck .would be man
ned by Co-op personnel,
and would not answer,
calls in the business
district, ' except in the
case of major fires,
when "all units are •'need
ed.
If the proposed plan
is carried through, the
present Go-op firetruok
would be stripped of its
pumps and firefighting
equipment. This mater
ial would be turned over
to the Fire Association
for uso on the units it
owns, and the Co-op
firetruok' would revert
to other uses.
The Co-op membership
in the As.sociati bn will
give protection to all
of its offices, apart
ments, houses and tho
gymnasium
Acme plans for in
crousing interest in the,
membership of ■ active
firemen in the volunteer
association were dis
cussed, It is expected
th. t recruit firemen
will bo added from Co-op
personnel, and it is
possible drill teams may
bo organised to familiar
ize men with the use cf
availa ble firefighting
equipment.
The Co-op powerhouse
whistle will continue to
sound the general fire
a I a rm, .no matter what
tho lccation of a firo
may bo.
