Summary: Improved fire guard arrangements are explained to the parties concerned.
Description: An official (Norman Shelley) persuades a group of initially sceptical business people and residents of the need for better fire guard practices using a model of the area they live and work in. The emphasis is on collaboration and on careful positioning of guard posts, good training and a carefully devised system of communication. The arrangements are illustrated by a typical incendiary raid.
