SOME AMEN OMENTS.

But few changes i'm these laws Will have
to be made as result Of the Binghamton
fire IL IS expected that the following
amendments, which the commission now
has under consideration, will be submitted
to the Legislature for immediate action
when il reconvenes in August.
l. Instead Of giving the Industrial Board
discretionary power to require the inclo-
sure of stairways In buildings of four
stories or under in height, to provide spe-
officially in the law itself that stairways
shall be inclosed in all factory buildings
two stories or over in height in which
more than a certain number OF people
ito be fixed in the statute) are employed
above the ground or first door.
.. To have the commissions laws not
now in force take effect on october /.
You may pass all the laws possible, you
may have all the inspection that the state
can afford. but these will be OF little avail
unless the manufacturer himself becomes
imbued with his own individual response
bility for the protection of his workers.
I'm European countries the person on
whose premises fire occurs is held
strictly to account. The law Of voisin-
age. as II is called. places the response
bllity where 1t properly belongs and
makes every one maintain his premises
in as safe condition as is possible
through human foresight.
But after all these laws have taken
effect. much remains to be done. Eternal
vigilance is the price Of fire prevention.
Inspections should be real frequent and
rioorous The state can do much; the
msnufacturer himself should do more.

SO incomprehensible. Here was four
story factory building situated near the
banks Of a beautiful stream and sur
rounded by trees and open spaces. The
structure had been occupied for more
than twenty years by the BinGhamton
Clothing Company. There had never been
the semblance Of a fire Yet on July %
at 2:3Op. m. an alarm of fire rang through
the building. About FIVE minutes later the
entire factory was wrapped in flames and
before the firemen arrived thirty-hve or
the employees had been burned TO death
or had lost their lives in jumping from
the burning building.
What was the cause Of the FIRE? Upon
whom does the responsibility rest! o

Then Chief Croker goes on TO state in
detail what steps should be taken TO pre-
vent similar disasters from occurring.
/ am surprised al this statement. Why
the fact is that practically every recon-
mendation made by Chief Croker has
been enacted into law. In many instances
the laws recommended by the Factory
Commission were based upon recommen-
dations and suggestions that Chiei
Croker himself made to the commission

pened when the fire broke out. The one
stairway the women on the fourth floor
could use was cut off the flames burst
forth from the windows upon the fire
escapes; the trap was perfect. What was
left for these eighty women to do but to
rush madly into the flames OF TO jump 10
death from the burning building?
How painfully SIMPLE it all seems now!
Had the manufacturer asked himself
what these girls would do in case the
one stairway was ecut off: had the FIRE
chief conducted a real fire drill, 1t would
have been seen that il was impossible for
the eighty girls Oh the fourth floor To get
out The necessity for reducing the num-
Der Of persons on that floor or for provid-
ing additional means Of exit would nave
