Major Richard sylvester honorary
president of the international Police
Association, head oi the protecting de-
Dartment of the du Pont Company
vas called in recently by an outside
concern 10 assist in the investigation
Of mysterious fire in q large manu-

discovery that Two OF the distinguishes

The result OF this act n the particular
instance under investigation was that
when a small FIRE started ana q workman
attempted 70 extinguish the flames, he
found that the use OF the eXtInguIsher
ONLY increased them. Further Investl-
CATION brought out the fact that other

with gasoline.
The far-reaching possibilities Of this
scheme for destruction of property were
50 apparent that Major Sylvester aJ

caution that after examination of eN-
