Searching investigation of the
Iroquois theater horror is bringing
out as its final analysis the lesson
that human life is cheap. So cheap
that the price OF few ordinary fire
extinguishers and safety appliances
was weighed in the balance against
six hundred lives so cheap that the
building inspectors, who drew fat
salaries from the city for safeguard
ing its life and property, were prov
