NEW ENC~LAND ASSOCIATION OF FIRE CHIEFS future disasters. We must be sure this information reaches the other Fire Chiefs so that they and their communities profit ,by what we have had to learn the hardi way. I understand tliere is a large fire in Boston today--the headlines tomorrow will be the next one. There never was a nicer summer day in Worcester than June 9th. I left the office at five o’clock. I proceeded toward home in the opposite direction from the disaster area--travelling probably a mile toward the South end of the city while the disaster was occurring in the North end. Without any warning whatsoever my car radio (i was in the official car) announced that there was an A. D. T. alarm in the new Norton Plant (situated directly in the path of the tornado). That would call for sending two companies, one engine, one ladder, and a district chief. This .still alarm that occurred drew the two companies out to the new Bond Street Plant which, incidentally, was damaged, to the extent of one million dollars, but it would be a two-mile run for the district chief who was radio-equipped and a three-minute run for the nearest engine company which was also radio-equipped. I mention the radios because they enabled me to communicate and receive messages almost instantly. ~ Immediately on receiving the first still alarm, it was followed by a radio cut-in by the operator, t-It said, "We now have an A. D. T. alarm from the old Norton Company’s plant and we will send, two additional companie, s’, and asked the district chief if he could take care of the two fires. He responded that t~e.hadn’t~gotten into the ar~a as yet but would look at the first one and, if possi.ble, cover the second one also. A few moments later the district chief saw the area on fire--it is on rising ground --and he radiod in that there was a bad fire breaking out in the Francis Street area and to send out a box alarm immediately. I had received all that on my radio while I was travelling about one block. This is how fast this sequence of events occurred. The box alarm meant we would get four more water line companies, two ladder companies, a deputy chief, a rescue squad and the protective department. Without getting into the thing at all, gentlemen, you can see we have now used up ele*en companies, a deputy chief and a district chief and we haven’t st&rtid to work yet. I should tell you at this time that the Worcester Fire Department consists of thirty active companies, ten ladder companies, nineteen water lines, engine and hose and a rescue company. Following the calling of ~he box and the deputy chief leaving quarters and travelling about three minutes apparently, he afterwards told me he could see the large rising cloud of dense ,black smoke which I also saw very quickly later when headed into that area. As soon as he detected this disturbing sight and sensed what was happening (whatever it was) he called on his radio to the fire department, "You had better get hold of the Chief. He should know what is happening out here." He was still a mile and a half away from the area. I cut in to tell him I was on my way out because of receipt of those various messages. I had told the driver to swing around the block and start heading out there. This will all fit in, gentlemen, with the timing shown in the Worcester Fire Department ¯ record. We find that the time records read quite efficiently, as you shall see when I give them to you. ...... , .... When I cut in and told the d.eputy~ chief that I was on my way out I did not know what the time was, but as I proceeded there the picture began to develop very rapidly on the radio. I cannot speak too highly of the service rendered by the radio. It was the one cutstanding factor in keeping the department coordinated. 165
