Detector distribution program
A smoke detector installation project, instituted by the Starkville, Miss., Fire Department, has developed into an ongoing community-wide fire safety program.
The program, which evolved from a suggestion by A. K. Rosenhan, a member of the Starkville department, provides free smoke detectors to the city’s low-income elderly, invalid and handicapped. Rosenhan pointed out that the people having the greatest need for smoke detectors are usually the ones least able to afford them.
