FIRE-WATCHING SYSTEM
The Mayor (Mr E, H. Andrews) said yesterday that no decisions on a uniform. fire-watching system for New Zealand cities had been made at the conference which he attended in Wellington last week.

Mr Andrews said he had learned nothing to change his opinion that a continuous system in Christchurch was impossible as well as unnecessary.
