Savannah .News.
For the purpose of inspecting the
new automobile equipment of the Sa
vannah fire department, Fire Chief
j. M. Joyner of Waycross visited Sa
vannah yesterday and expressed him
self us greatly pleased with the ap-
recently installed here.
Chief Joyner Is another warm ad
vocate of the automobile fire appara?
tus, as the most up-to-date und effi
cient machines for fighting fl.-, and
s working hard to secure for his de
partment fit least one of n make
similar to No. 3 auto combination
t* uck. For some time Chief Joyner
Las been working for this and se
cured the voto of the Waycros* City
Council for tho purchase of one, only
to have the measure vetoed by the
Mayor.
The recent fire which destroyed
considerable property in Waycross
reyived interest In tho matter con-’
siderabiy, and public sentiment is
strong in favor of the installation of
cno or more of these machines, it is
said. A meeting of Waycross Coun
cil will bo held tonight, and with this
in mind Chief Joyner made his visit
to Savannah, He had a‘long talk
vith Chief Engineer Rallnntyno of
tho local department and with the
foreman and crew of tho new auto
truck at No. 3 fire stntion and on his
return to Waycross will put tho
nmttor up Btrongly to tl|o City Coun
cil with cbnfldenco that • they will
override the Mnyor’s veto.
Like Chief Engineer Bjillantyne,
Chief Joyner believes firmlfr. in tho
motor-driven firc-flghtlng apparatus *
and says in his opinion it Is tihTy a
question of time when all tho up-to-
dute flro department will be thor
oughly equipped with nutomoblles. W
regard t othe movement on foot In
Savannah to do nvvay practically al
together, with the exception of the %
trucks, ho said he considered It a
siep in the right direction nnd com
mended Chief Dallnntyno for his en*
ergy in advocntlng this action.
