telephone number 600 and K295 hung in a conspicuous place over each public telephone would probably effect an improvement in calling up the Brigade.

The fire alarm system of street points is still unsatisfactory and will be so until the wires are put underground. It is proposed to relay the lines underground in 1922. Two calls only were received by this system.

GENERAL.

The Motor Pumps have been in use at Fires 23 times. No machine has failed to start up readily on receipt of a call.

There has been no delay in turning out to a fire or supposed fire. A crew of 1st and 2nd class firemen are detailed off at 9.00 hours every day to get away with 1st machine so as to get to work or send a stop message back as soon as possible.

All appliances are in good order except No. 1 Tender (Central) and No. 2 Engine (Kowloon) which are due for overhaul.

In the past the Chinese firemen have only been issued with one pair of ankle boots. It is proposed to issue topboots to all firemen in future.
