More Fire Towers Added in Michigan

Additional fire towers will be established in the upper peninsula of Michigan as forest fire protection.

Measures for strengthening the fire protective unit and for building up the fire-fighting equipment are now under consideration, according to Director Young. There are 14 forest fire districts in the state, he said, with seven located in the upper peninsula and seven in the lower. Two fire fighting pumper trucks have already been added to the equipment in the upper peninsula and next year it is the hope of the commission to have each of the 14 districts provided with similar equipment.
