'KITCHEN' MATCHES
PROMOTE FIRES,
A marked increase in cotton
fires, attributed directly to
“Kitchen” matches, prompted
the National Cotton Council to
issue a special fier-prevention
warning today to cotton growers,
gins and warehouses throughout
the 18-state Cotton Belt.
A number of instances have
been reported recently to the
Council where “strike-any
where,” “non-safety” matches
found their way into seed cotton
carried by pickers, have found
later to start fires in the highly
inflammable raw cotton or dur
ing the ginning process. Several
disastrous fires this season have
been traced to such sources.
The large influx of seasonal
labor at harvest time brings
workers into the cottonfields who
are unaware of the constant
danger of fire, the Council re
minds producers.
“Fire-packed’ bales, sources of
most gin fires, are also caused by
careless smokers, sparks igniting
the lint when metal and rocks in
dirty seed cotton strikes machin
gala parade at 10 A. M. Monday,
October 25, with Rome High
Bugle Corps, the School patrol,
the general chairman, commit
tee chairmen and committee
members joining in the line of
march. New automobiles to be
shown in the automobile show,
new trucks and farm equipment
will also be featured in the
parade.
Joe Turbidy, chairman of the
entertainment committee, has
announced that a street dance
will be one of the entertainment
features on Wednesday night,
October 27. A number of other
novel entertainment features
are being arranged for the week.
One of the highlights of the
week will be the stlye show,
which will be held at the City
Auditorium on Thursday night.
