Howard Blanton, Chief
Fort Wayne Fire Department
319 East Main Street
Fort Wayne, Indiana
Dear Chief:
March 1, 1963
I am pleased to submit to you the annual report of the Fire Prevention
Bureau for the calendar year of 1962. A year in which many forward
steps were taken.
The job of Fire Prevention in Fort Wayne was made much easier by the
interest and devotion to public service of the news media. People of
radio, television and newspapers were very generous of th~lr-·time and
talents in spreading the Fire Safety message.
I wish to thank every man in the Fire Department, Chief, Chief Officers
and men for the help they gave the Bureau through reports, assistance
at investigations and in inspections.
The school officials in our city have been very kind in implementing
child fire safety through educational programs and competition in the
schools.
The men of the Bureau increased the number of inspections of business
places and gained more compliances than ever before and also spent
many hours in public speaking and demonstrat:ions to inform the public
how to be fire safe.
On the following pages you will find a detailed report of Fire Prevention
Bureau activities with recommendations for betterment of the
Bureau.
p::Ul/;;tted,
John King, Chief
Fire Prevention Bureau
Fort Wayne Fire Department
