Safety Tips for a Fire Safe Christmas Tree

A dry brittle tree can ignite quickly. Choose a fresh tree with green needles, trim the trunk, and place it in a water filled stand away from heat. Refill daily, inspect and replace damaged lights, avoid overloaded circuits, use nonflammable decorations, never use lit candles, and disconnect lights when away or sleeping. Dispose of the tree after holidays.

Boiler Fuel Gas Cutback Ordered

The Texas Railroad Commission ordered a slow-down in natural gas use for boiler fuel to conserve dwindling supplies. It warned gas could run out within a decade if boilers keep using gas, while oil as an alternative risks higher oil demand and pollution. The order caps gas for boiler use at 100,000 cu ft daily, exempts current contracts, and mandates reductions by 1981 and 1985 for large consumers, with hospitals and small plants shielded from the cutoff.
