The Underwriters Report
3,7S9 Blazes and S1,619,-
249 Damage in 5 Years.

Careless smokers are responsible
for the greatest amount OF fire loss
in the District, according to a sur
vey made by the National Board of
Fire Underwriters of fires which
have occurred during the last FIVE
years.
Approximately 3,7Ss fires were re-
ported upon by the insurance COM
panies during this time, entailing a
total loss Of S1,619,24s, OF which
S4l4,244 is attributed to matches and
careless smoking. 1t is estimated
that 25 per cent should be added to
the totals to cover the fires not re-
ported to the underwriters.
Fires Largely PreventabIe.
The causes are classified into three
groups, Of which twelve are listed
as strictly preventable with a total
Of S625,sO1; nine are designated as
partly preventable with a total of
S36O,406, and beyond these are the
unknown causes totaling $632,942.
These unknown causes, according to
the underwriters, may be considered

since it is known they would be
distributed among the other causes.
1t is pointed out that If this total
sum of 31,61s,249 could have been
used instead of wasted through
fires, it would have built 323 homes
at $1,000 each, large enough to house
l,6lO people, or IL would have built
161 miles of good macadam road at
$4,000 per mile.
