Citizens seek fire protection for southern part of city
J. E. Marsh and A. S. Caldwell urged High Point City Council to consider a new fire station in the far southern area. They noted no station exists there while other sections are protected, citing Union Furniture plant loss and a $200,000 annual payroll that would flow through local merchants. The mayor said the matter would be studied, but no action was taken and none is expected soon.
