Hine, secretary of the state board of education, and a genuine campaign for fire protection Is to be begun at once in the state.
 Secretary Hine explained the cendi- tion briefly. My office has just re- ceived an official copy of the law" he said and it is a very drastic one. It is law that will require fire escapes on many buildings that have not need ed them in the past The law provides that the state board of education and the local fire departments shall, siRgiy or jointly attend to the matter. have written to all the regular fire depart mentS in the state and shall try t6 act through the heads of them. In the towns that have no fire departments the state board of education will have te attend to the matter. and we will begin tour of inspectisR very soon Mr Hine said he understood that the intention of the law was to have the fire eSeap De matter attended t6 at 6Rc9, and declared that he intends te do his part
 The text of the letters sent to fire department heads by Secretary Hine follows:
 Your attention is called to the law rela ting to fire escapes in schoeihouseS which takes effect upon it's passage In Section ? of this act the chief of the fire department and the state board of education have power to enforce it's provisions It is also pre- scribed that the chief of the fire de- partment and the state board of edu- cation, acting either jointly or singly, must immediately upon the passage of the act order school authorities to place fire escapes on all schoolhouses or buildings.
 The state board of education will be glad to cooperate with you in con- forming to the terms of this act Manifesty, the first step must be to ascertain what schoolhouses do not meet the legal requirements. The matter has already been dis cussed by the town school committee of Norwich.
