cI1Y NEEDS MORE FIRE
 FIGHTING EQUIPMENT

Little Rock, Nov. 16. -The re- cent s6OO,OOO fire which for the .,oond lime this year destroyed .,o 1cnps House Furnishing stock has aroused this city to +be necessity of more drastic fire protective ordinances and ooninment for the city. T h e fire clearly demonstrated that tbp present equipment is made ouate to cope with a fire of this magnitude, in the high buildings and that it is impossible to check fr.s of this character without efficient apparatus.
 Considerable equipment has recently been added, but not of the kind needed to fight fires in high buildings. For this pur- nose an aerial truck is consider ed indispensable, and the pur- chase of such an apparatus is be- ing urged. Every year sees more buildings erected of three stories and more, and the equip ment necessary to combat fires in their upper stories must be modern and up-to date.
 Another thing which this fire has accomplished is to attract attention to the necessity of a l more adequate building ordin. snce, providing for the regula. ton of interior construction, as we'll as the construction of walls and roofs. With such and ordin- ance- and there has been lying in an aldermanic pigeon hole for
 last two years it would be prac- dcable to bring about an era of fire proof construction Il a
 would be cheaper for the build CTS and be protection to sur.
 rounding property. Fire traps

 ness district, insurance rates
