INSTRUCTION IN FIRE PREVENTION
Engineer H. HowIand of the National Board of Fire Under writers Made Inspection of Norwich Conditions this Week and Calls Attention What the City Must Pre- pare to Do.

During the stress in fire department affairs this week. Engineer J. H. Rowland of the Committee on Fire Prevention of the National Board of Fire Underwriters came to Norwich for the purpose of making an inspec- ton of the department and of fire risks about the city. MT. Rowland. wno is an expert engineer, particularly in the department of hydraulics, came here on Tuesday morning, after having been in Providence for similar work and Chief Stanton informed him that he had come at rather an inopportune time. Nevertheless the engineer went to work, checked up the recommenda-
 tio1s that the National Board of Un- derwriters made in March, 1911, look ed over the equipment and the general conditions as regards fire prevention, in Norwich. talked the situation over with representative Norwich citizens. and before leaving on the 8 o'clock train for New York Friday afternoon had number of suggestions to make.
 One of the first things. MT. Rowland said, that should be brought about in Norwich is the appointment of board of fire prevention commissioners. Such a. commission could be appointed, he thought. through the board of trade. to act in cooperation with other com missioners already existing toward the end which it's name implies. the con sideration of fire fighting facilities, of hazards from fire and of the means of preventing risks and possibilities of fires. To this same end he endorsed. if it should be deemed advisable. the idea a public meeting of instruction in fire prevention and if necessary to call tne other besides local men to talk on the subject. His aim In so doing would be to replace haphazard or no means of preventing confiagrations by scientific and reasonable procedure.

Engineer Rowland talked with city officials on Friday. among them Chair man Thomas H. Beckiey of the fire commissioners. A. S. Comstock, acting president of the water board Presi- dent James c. Macpherson and Frank J. King of the Board of Trade. ex- Mayor Lippitt, ex-Fire Commissioner J. Henry shannon and a number of other business men and interested them in the questions before the city. MT Rowland indicated that 1t will become necessary for Norwich, in- creasingly as time goes on, to con- slider more attentively the matters of fire protection and prevention.
 The visit of the fire prevention ex- pert here this week came as sort of supplementary or '-follow-up" inspec- ton after that made in January and February. 1911, by Engineers Berker and Bissell for the National Board of Fire Underwriters. It is made, of course in the interests of the great stock companies of the country who have large insurance interests here. and high fire risk and lack of meth ods of fire prevention naturally mean a high rate. Yet in spite of the rec concentrations made three years ago, Engineer Rowland found that the most noteworthy changes. besides the auto chemical. was one new fire alarm box paid for by the city, although three private boxes have also been installed for the protection of individual con- cerns. Also inspecting the water sys- tenn Engineer Rowland found a new and capacious reservoir built at Stony Brook. but that instead of 2I inch main all the way in to the city it was cut down to 20 and then to Is, which he found inadequate. The engi- neer will take his observations back to New York and add them to the recommendations already mace.
