Coz Roberts has issued q procla.
matiCg fixing Oct, 9 as Fire Prevention
Day in Tennessee. On that day all
citizens are urged to clean up their
premises, remove the rubbish and 9TH
erwise dispose of all trash that might
in any way cause fire.
The warning OF q Governor ought
not to go UNDECIDED. The fire bill in
Tennessee amounts to several millions
of dollars each year. 1t is hard for one
not acquainted with statistics to real.
iZe this enormous waste. fire here
and fire there is forgotten as the
months run along; but at the end of
the year the total is footed up and the
public pays the price.
1t is one Of the fundamental rules
in insurance that tle lower the risk
is the cheaper the insurance rates will
be. II fires could be prevented the
risk would be reduced. reduction
in rates would very naturally follow.
The benefits would soon get back to
the public in cheaper fire insurance
rates. Besides there is some incon-
venience i'll being burned out.
Fires can be prevented 1t is prob,
able that 80 per cent OF the fires in
Tennessee are due to carelessness in
one form or another. The prudent
business man has safety appliances
which help to reduce the hazard and
If his business does not justify that
he makes frequent inspections to see
the no unnecessary dangers are ex-
listing. He keeps his premises free
from trash and rubbish which might
contribute to a fire.
For years and years insurance men
have contributed time and money to
ire prevention campaigns. The theory
may be that it is better TO nave small
~ pre?'iums and fewer fires than lar.
ger premiums and more fires How
.ver that may be, it is tho public pri-
narily that benefits from such cam.
,aigns. More attention ought to be
,aid to reducing fire risks. A hearty
eaponse to Gov. Roberts proclama-
ion ought 10 lie expected throughout
he state. Memphis would do well TO

Does your heart go out to the

Then yoh will understand why
Southern Baptists have established
crphanages in fifteen states, are
caring for 5000 such children in those
homes and training them for useful
lives in the world.
But the need is far greater than the.
ability of these institutions to meet
it. While five thousand children are
being cared for in these orphanages,
there are on the waiting list of these
institutions fully five thousand more

vent the destruction of their property

not. Read his proclamation:

les doing business in Tennessee have
voluntarily sought the aid of the State
government to reduce the fire losses

Will Make TREATY
WITHOUT ITALIANS
Peace Conference Also Has
Solution For Chino-Jap
Controversies.

Paris, April 3O-A formula for the
ISOLATION OF tie problem of Kiao Chau
which it is hoped will remove any
possibility of a definite break and
provo mutually acceptable to the
Chinese and Japanese, has been
reached by the powers, it was stated
in authoritative quarters today.
The nature of the indicated solu-
ton, however has not yet been dis
closed.
1t is planned in peace conference
circles to go ahead with the treaty OF
peace without regard to any action
by Italy as it is considered probable
the Italian delegation will not return,
certainly not within the present week.
The delivery of the treaty and the
first exchanges with the Germans,
therefore, will occur without the par
ticipation Of Italy and 1t is said in
American quarters that this proceed
ura will go forward steadily up till
the signing of the treaty The first
reading with the Germans will prob
ably occur Friday afternoon or Sat
urday when the pact will be pre-
sented.
A day or two will be given for
questions concerning interpretations
of different phases of the convention
without however involving pro-
longed discussion.
Reports from Berlin are somewhat
contradictory concerning Germany's
purposes as some reports indicate
that an early signing of the treaty
is probable, while others say that it
is doubtful whether the pact will be
signed at Ill. These reports, coming
from different sources, indicate lack
of concerted attitude as to the treaty
and show there is disposition to leave
the decision largely, with the German
plenipotcntiaries who are now at Ver-
SaillCS.
