Speaking at the monday lunch con Of the Chamber of Commerce in the Stratfield, T. Alfred Flemming, supervisor of the conservation de- partment of the national board of fire underwriters, of New York city, to- day urged that immediate steps be taken to educate the public on fire recomm ended that a committee be appointed to assume charge of this educational work, and that the mat ter be given attention without de- lay.
 Figures presented by MT. Fleming showed that the daily loss of our forestry through fire, the upkeep of supply amounts to more than $2,000.- 000. The economic loss which re- suits from disturbed business, can- cel1ed contracts and loss to workmen registers more than $2,000.000 more.

Homes were burned at the rate of S9S for every working day. Five school houses are burned daily, and the loss Of these. in most instances can be laid to the carelessness of public officials
 The National Board of Fire Under writers according to Mr. Flemn1ing, holds that the education of the pub- lie is the only remedy for cutting down our enormous fire losses. The Conservation department has been established in order that 1t may co- the matter of fire prevention. and is now doing considerable warizs along these lines.
