Reduction of Fire Waste.

Clinton Herald: No feature of the
national campaign for the conserva-
ton of our resources is more import
ant than the reduction of the fire
waste of the country. The work be-
gun by President Roosevelt had to
do chiefly with the conservation of
natural and unutilized resources in
the shape of growing timber, unmined
coal and ore and undeveloped water.
These are all important, but even
greater importance is the reduction
of the annual fire waste of the coun-
| try, because into the building mater.
| ials and manufactured products de-
stroyed has gone human toll, which
| is as much wasted when they go up
in fire and smoke as is the raw mater
ial of which they are composed. The
public should understand that prop
| erty destroyed by fire is absolutely
| wasted. Insurance may indemnify the
owners, but the money comes out of
| the public just the same. and only
a great growing and wealthy country
| like this could stand the enormous
drain of S25O,000,OoO, burned up
each year, without going into eventual
bankruptcy. The insurance companies
are cooperating in the campaign for
the reduction of the fire waste, and
| in public-spirited and unselfish way,
since they reduce their rates in pro-
portion as the hazard is reduced. The
business world is waking UP to the
economic need of checking this enor-
nous drain upon the nations re-
sources, and is cooperating with bet
ter building laws, the appointment OF
fire marshals, the Improvement of
water supplies and fire protection,
and a greater feeling of individual re-
sponsibility for the causes and re-
suits of fires.
