The London newspaper, Evening News, said tonight that when Mr Oliver Lyttelton, the Colonial

Fire Brigade's
Difficulties
Explained
The disclosure that the Fire Brigade does not possess sufficient personnel to permit constant and thorough check-up on whether combustible mate- rials were being illegally stored on squatter areas was made this morning by Mr W, J. Gorman, Chief | of the Fire Brigade.
He told the China Mail that it was laid down by law that anyone wishing to store or make use of combustible materials must have a permit. On principle, permits were not granted to anyone liv- ing in squatter areas because the conditions were highly unsuitable.
However, said Mr
Gorman
the Fire Brigade did not possess to ensure
