New England Signal Men Meet
Fifty members of the New England Municipal Signal Association gathered at the Norwich Inn, Norwich, Conn., on March 13 and 14 for the two-day spring meeting. Frank F. Veit, Superintendent of Fire Alarms, Stamford, Conn., presided. Due to the absence of Mayor Edward G. Moran, Alderman Abraham W. Silverberg welcomed the gathering and expressed the pride which residents of Norwich feel because of the efficiency of the Fire Department under the direction of Chief Henry R. Taft.
A brief business session was held at which SecretaryTreasurer Alfred C. Ames, Providence, R. I., gave his report of the progress made by the association since it was organized. On the afternoon of the first day’s session there was a general discussion on the report of the Joint Pole Committee. A demonstration on shunt type box and system was given by Chief Engineer Frank R. Bridges, of the Gamewell Company and Joseph Siddall, Secretary of the New Jersey Municipal Signal Association. This was followed by a general discussion.
