Heyfron of Roman. made a patriotic
address during the early part of the
evening which was listened to with
great interest by all and was much

INSPECTORS TO . .-..-

Part of Nation Wide Campaign to
 Eliminate Fire Hazards.

Inspectors. of the Conservation aSSo- ciation of Connecticut, who recently started a campaign to eliminate or re- duce fire hazards in this state as war l measure, will extend their work this week to the following towns: Mystic, Noank. Stonington, Pawcatuck, Groton and all of Windham county.
 The inspectors recently made in- spections in New Haven and Bridge port. Their work has the endorsemere of the Connecticut state council of de- fense sand the council of national de- fense. and their methods are to make carefu! surveys of the places they visit to discover fire hazards and make rec concentrations that the conditions they find be changed so to reduce the fire risk much as possible. There are between 30 and 35 men enga ged in the survey. They are eX- perts in their line. and letters have
 been sent by the state council to the mayors and fire and police chiefs of the two cities which. it is hoped, will help to make the task of the inspectors easier. The council also asks the gen era1 public to cooperate as much as possible with tae inspectors so as to nelp make their patriotic. efforts sue cessful.
 Certain classes of property will no. be inspected, notably buildings t1ol are regularly. inspected by insurance companies. comparatively isolated isolated pieces of property that are of insignificant value and certain build
 ings that are classed as non hazard ous.
 The inspectors will visit the various pieces of property as representa- lives of the state council and the state govern ment. They will be equipped with au- thorization cards issued by Governor Marcus H. Holcomb and coun tersigned by the state fire marshal and RiehaT,l NJ. BiSsell of Hartford. chairman of the defense couniii. With these arrange ments made for credentials. it is ex- pected that the inspectors will be wei comed by the property owners to whom they apply ana that the latter will CO., oDerata in making efficient ~the, aG- compEshment ot what is considered one of the most important conSer.zG- ton movements set on foot since She start Of the war
