SOME OF THE CITY
SCHOOLS ARE UNSAFE
According to Report Made to the
Board of Education Last
Night.

The city Board of Education last even
ing received the report of the survey of
school Nos. l and 8 made by the Fire
Prevention Committee of the Chamber
of Commerce. The fire menace in each Of
these schools, the report declared, was great
and If the board did not wish to jeopardize
the lives OF the hundreds Of students study
ing there, immediate measures should be
taken to improve conditions.
The survey declared that the menace
at school No. / lay in gas and electric
lighting systems in use, poor house keep
ing, the fact that there are no fire extin-
g,iishers inside the building. and that
the tire-escape was neither sufficient nor
well arranged. The report also said that
the heating system with its present low
pressure steam boiler was another menace.
The survey said that the plumbing in. the
gas piping was poor. During the commit
tees Inspection numerous leaks had been
found. Ii recommended the removal Of
the entire system.
The electric light system, il said,
while recently installed, was not safe. The
wiring WAS in several places in contact
with wooden partitions or gas pipes and
A fire might easily result The report de-
clarcd that the building should be rewired
along the line laid down by the national
electrical code.
The inspection, the report said, showed
that the present heating system, with the
low pressure steam boiler, was another
menace to the safety of the building. The
boiler WAS situated close TO the wooden
floor and the steampipes in several places
were in contact with the woodwork. 10
offset this danger the report recommended
that fire-proof cover be placed on the
workhouse about the boiler.
In the event of o fire the conditions
about the building were such that 1t
would be difficult to empty the building
quickly, the survey stated. The interior
starways were in good condition but the
exterior fire escape was neither sufficient
nor in good order Corrections should be
made in this. the survey said, and inaddi-
ton hand fire extinguishers should be
installed in the halls and an automatic
sprinkler system placed in the basement.

The survey recommended further that
comprehensive fire alarm system be
installed with indicators in each room.
MUCH THE SAME AT NO. 0.
The hazard at school No. was outlined
as similar. This school, which is situated
at Eighth and Wollaston streets, is ION
the edge Of the confiagration section OF the
city" the report said. 1t is OF q combustl-
bic type and thoroughly dry. Wherever a
fire might occur in it, it would be free
burning. The conditions of the lighting
system were similar here to those at NO.
school. The same Improvement was
recommended. The report said that there
was no interior protection from fire. The
same alarm and fre-fghting apparatus
were recommended here as in school No. l..
The interior stairways arc open and an
added menace in case OF fire. outside
there are no fire escapes and the interior
stairs are the only means of descending
from the upper floors. The report said
that the stairs within the building should
be closed and that a modern fire escape
system should be erected.
In the reports on both buildings recon-
mendations were made that weekly In
spections by principals be made. Teachers
should be responsible for the outlets from
the individual rooms and should be re-
quired to see that they are clear each
day before the session is begun.
Following the reading of the report
President Rommel urged the board to
take some action on them.
DR.. Beck asked who had authorized the
inspection and was told that the president
of the board had done SO.
DIR. Beck then asked why the school
committee had had no notification of the
proposed action though chairman of the
committee. He was told that at the time
he was on the Pacific coast.
cRIr1clsEp BY DIR. BECK.
"Well, these reports haven't told US
anything we don't know" declared Mr..
Beck They've missed the biggest
menace existing at No. school Per-
sonally, l think this is a case of discourtesy
to the school committee. The members
Of this board serve without pay and |
don't see why we should allow everyone
to come in ard make an inspection and
criticize our work"
President Rommel asked the member
what menace at No. had been missed in
the survey, but the latter refused to say,
declaring that the ones who had made the
survey could find out for themselves"
Mr.. Draper moved that the board
defer action on the report for one month.
The motion prevailed.
This action of the board will put Oft
improving the conditions mentioned in
the report until after schools open, on
September 20.

Green and Brown and Is Expert
mentlng on Black.

A. w. Brabham has submitted to The
Cotton exchange OF Savannah four
samples Of colored cotton--lght brown,
dark brown, light green and dark
green. They are the results Of years
of experimentation Mr. Brabham says
that other colors will appear when q
number of cotton plsnts in his garden
that are not yet fully grown begin to

The botanist has not yet been able
to produce black cotton, but he says
he WIN do so IN time. II would have

cotton. mailed to him by botanlst in
Delhi. India, had not gone astray. Mr.
Brabham has sent for another pack
age of these seeds, and he is convinced
that If he crosses them with certain Of
the cottons he has Already grown the
result will be black.

VAGUE ABOUT aRED" LEADERS
But Young Bolshsvlst Soldier Had
Heard Of Trotzty. and iueI-

I have Just had a talk with a Boil

when he was participating IN a bold
scouting enterprise. He is a young
man twenty-One years old, coming
from one Of the interior departments
Of Russia. He is nllterate and a con-
frmed Bolshevlk.
Discipline, he said, was very good
in the Bolshevist army; still they did
not obey orders because they were or
ders, but "as matter Of conscience"
The military forms Of address had
been abolished and even the officers
were spoken to as comrades. Natural
Iy the soldiers stand at attention be-
fore their officers; but that was be-
cause every soldier in the army fol-
lows the bidding of his conscience and
sit would be foolish" not TO stand at
attention before ones commander.
He had never seen general or any
Of the higher officers, but he knew the
commander In chief was called Trotz-
ky, and that there was another head
man. He pondered moment trying
to recall who the second one was, and
then suddenly remembered, "l.enlne."
He knew nothing more about him, and
did not know the names of any other
commander.
He kept saying Everyone on our
side is a Bolshevik," 'and seemed to be
impressed with the great power and
authority of the Bolsheviki. When
asked who Trotzky was he replied, "A

Valuable Counterfeit.

A strange counterfeit turned up at

because 1t was bogus So gold coin
and worth about eight times as much
as the genuine because 1t Is made Of
platinum.
The spurious coin was made about
fifty years ago and bears the date OF
1869. Musty archives of the secret
service contain a record of the species
and the case is marked CLOSED" The
coins were made In Maine and came
to the notice Of the Treasury depart
mcnt when the scion of wealthy
family took quantity of them from a
safety deposit box containing heir
looms and put them in circulation. All
known specimens were confiscated by

In circulation.
