Excerpt from Fire Control Notes, Vol. 21: A Periodical Devoted to the Technique of Forest Fire Control; October, 1960 Director, Division of Fire Control, U. S. Forest Service, Washington, D. C. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to consider the very important subject of railroad fire prevention. Fire preven tion, like the frequency of man-caused fires, has its ups and downs. Apparently we are in an up period nationally. All protection agencies taken collectively have had an upsurge in man-caused fires during the past 2 years. Many explanations are given for this but it would be difficult to be certain of the true cause. Apparently, there is no one cause but several. This up swing in man-caused fires has focused renewed attention on fire prevention. We are beginning some fire prevention research aimed at trying to determine the exact cause for fires, the reason behind the cause, and at trying to evaluate the various prevention efforts now used with all man-causes. We look forward to the time when application of increased knowledge and improved methods will greatly reduce fires within the forests. We hope railroad fires will follow this path. Recent experience on the national forests has been encouraging. Railroad fires have been of concern to the Forest Service since we were given the job of protecting the national forests nearly 60 years ago. Fires from railroad causes were very common in western national forests in the early days. Not much attention was paid to either suppression or prevention in those times. As we were able to greatly reduce the acreage burned and resulting damages through better fire control, we began to give more attention to preventing all fires. We recognize that the best fire is the one that never happens. This emphasizes prevention. In examining the fire record of the national forests for the past 10 years, I note that there has been a general reduction in railroad fires, but the pattern by regions and national forests is irregular. For example, for the 5-year period 1949-54 there were railroad fires on the national forests. For the next 5 years this had dropped to 604 or to nearly one-half.

Excerpt from Fire Control Notes, Vol. 20: A Periodical Devoted to the Technique of Forest Fire Control; October 1959 When to expect fires often depends on the cause as much as on the fire danger at the time. Some causes concentrate fire starts during weekends and holidays, or out-of-work hours. Some are tied to the season, some to certain hours of the day. Prevalence of fires in one locality as compared to another sometimes means more hazardous fuels. If our records are good enough to show that, they can be used to guide hazard-reduction programs. The design of a fire prevention program is only as valid as the fire statistics on which it is based. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fire Control Notes, 1953, Vol. 14: A Periodical Devoted to the Technique of Forest Fire Control The most successful fire control job that can be accomplished is the prevention of fires. Fires such as those started by lightning and by air crashes, vehicle accidents, and enemy action in time of war cannot be prevented. However, the vast majority of man caused fires are susceptible to prevention efforts. The purpose of this article is to outline what procedures to establish and the methods to follow to assist in the prevention of fires. A brief background of the major uses of wild lands and their general relationship to fire occurrence will point up the Value of fire prevention and will aid in the preparation of a specific plan for a given unit.
