Commissioner Schwamm Urges an
Amendment to Building Laws
Which Now Exempt Of

Fire Commissioner Schwamm, with
Fire Chief Lips cooperating, Is urging
that an ordinance be introduced re-
quiring office buildings used for offices
exclusively to be equipped with fire
escapes.
At present this class of skyscrapers
is exempt from this escape law.
The four buildings claiming exemp-
tion are the Hellman, Union Trust,
Merchants Trust and Central.
Building Inspector Backus will prob
ably have an amendment to the ordi-
nances drawn up at the request Of the
fire board for submission to the city
council. In the past similar attempts
have always failed in the latter body.
The recent fire in the German build
ing, which was equipped with a fire
escape, yet where one young woman
was suffocated. was cited as case in
point. The fire escapes at the Germain
building proved their value in many
ways, especially for aiding firemen to

torney for Victor Myerson, who was
arrested here last Saturday because he
attempted to sell. confetti. protested
against the dismissal of the case

the result of a demand made upon the
city by Los Angeles speculator whose
offer to pay $3.50 for the exclusive con,
fetti concession had been countenanced
by the trustees after, which the money
was received by the local trade organ
ization and used in carrying out the
arrangements for the Shriners' recep-
ton.
