Fire TsB Direct k£sas by lire in 1M7 reached an unprecedented 710 million dollars, or 23 per cent Mfhw than the 1948 toll of 561 million dollars. Ilia 1947 fire loss, if apportioned equally among America'a SO million jobholders, would cost each wage earner $11.66. In United States cities fire protection costs about $3.09 per capita, according to the president's conference on fire prevention.
