FIRE CONGRESS.
The Prevention association Will Meet
in Topeka February ..

The fire congress proposed at the re-
cent annual meeting of the Kansas
State Fire Prevention association. will
be held in Topeka on Wednesday, Feb
rbary ). The congress will be in line
with the associations fight for conser-
walton OF the Immense fire waste of the
state, and promises to be something
decidedly out of the ordinary.
At least three speakers of national
prominence will be on hand for the oc-
casion. Richard r. Croker. ex-chief of
the New York fire department. probably
the best known fire fighter in the world.
who has now turned his entire atten-
ton to the matter of fire prevention.
is scheduled to be on hand for an adj
dress. The other speakers include Fire
Marshal c. J. Doyle of Illinois and
superintendent Doane of the Utah in
surance department, both recognized
experts in fire prevention lines.
The object of the meeting is to arouse
public concern and general interest in
the state wide movement for better fire
prevention facilities. Incendiary fires
in the last year. the association claims.
have been exceedingly numerous and
expensive. That is one form of fire
waste for which preventative is being
sought and it is likely that moro
stringent laws will be asked regarding
arson.
Fires from ordinary sources resulting
from carelessness. from excessive ac-
cumulation of rubbish. or from dcfec-
tive electric wiring. from which many
confagrations start. will be discussed
and the Importance of conserving the
wastse attaching to such fires will be
discussed.
Backing up the assertions of the as
ISOLATION figures are presented show
ing that a comparatively small proper
ticn of the fire loss of the state is
covered with insurance. So not only the
fire insurance companies are the losers
through the frequency of preventable
fires, but the owners of the properties
burned lose heavily every time a fire
occurs.
The committee has secured the CO.
Operation of Goyernor-Elect George II.
Hodges. and expects that he will de-
liver at least a short address. The
members of the new legislature also
will be urged to be on hand. Plans
are being laid to interest every COM
