Governors Proclamation
Urges All State to Help
Reduce Risks
CITY SCHOOLS NEED
MORE PROTECTION

In response to the proclamation
by Governor Denney numerous civic
associations. schools and churches
are preparing to observe Fire Pre-
vention Day. October TO- the fiftieth
anniversary OF the Chicago fire. with
appropriate exercises. The Whining
ton city government Is expected to
observe the day in accordance with
a resolution endorsing the project,
adopted by City Council last week.
Chief Lutz, OF the fire department.
and the fire prevention committee
of Wilmington, also are preparing
to cooperate in the removal OF fire
hazards.
Metal protection beneath stoves
protection Of walls and ceilings from
overheated pipes. proper disposal OF
ashes. proper keeping Of matches. re-
pairs to chimneys and their proper
cleaning, viligance in the matter OF
gasoline and kerosene and proper
and careful inspection In order to
safeguard against fires at all times,
would greatly reduce the great fire
loss. il is declared.
Wilmington people are apparently
doing better In this regard, there
having been only three small fires
in September as compared with
eighteen in August
It has been found. however, that
two Industrial plants here which en-
pioy large numbers of girls have no
fire exits and that one plant. where
there are eighty-five girls employed.
many at work on the third floor. is
not equipped with fire escapes.
Another plant, where 100 girls are
employed, has but one stairway and
no fire escape.
According to Chief Lutz. the pub
lie schools are not adequately pro-
tectedIrom fire hazards. This matter
sent 10 City Council last December.
No action has been taken on the
communication.
Another complaint about the fire
hazard in a school was received by
City Council from the Police Depart
ment and was referred back TO the
department with instructions TO re-
fer II to the Board of Public Educa-
tion. Since then no action has been
taken on the matter.
As a result OF agitation. however,
there has been a material improve
ment in conditions here. although
following several weeks OF investiga-
tion by detectives In the employ OF
the National Board OF Fire Under
writer's, during which the numerous
small fires in small stores here dur
ing June. July and August we're
looked into, there has been a slight
reduction in the amount OF insur-
ance permitted 10 be carried on such
establishments.
It is pointed out that this shows
the National Board OF Fire Under
writer's is not satisfied yet with the
condition of fire hazards here and
that additional care and attention
to this is needed in order to make
the city as safe as it should be.

urges FAITH AS
BUSINESS AID
DR.. Hubbard Thinks Conf
dence in God Would
Bring Prosperity
SYMPATHIZES WITH
HUNGRY CHILDREN

Preaching on the subject "Our
Bread and Butter Proposition" the
Rev. Carlisle l.. Hubbard, in st.
Paul's NJ. f. Church said last night
that When a "man is hungry it is
tough; when his wife is hungry it
is harder, but when his children are
hungry, that is HE'LL"
To-day in America" DR.. Hubbard
said, I'VE are not confronted
with a scarcity of food, but with
scarcity OF work with which men
can make money to buy food. Food
is just as ungetable as II II didn't
exist, II there is no money TO pur-
chase IL. Millions In America, and
thousands in Wilmington. are look
ing forward to winter with scarcely
any hope.
They tell us better times are
coming around the corner But
when are they going to get around? ?
Business is getting better, rents are
lower, food is cheaper, they say; but
they are not getting down to a level
where a man without work can buy
them"
DR.. Hubbard took issue with
those who say the only reason there
is unemployment is because men are
lazy and Indifferent and don't want
to work.
DIR. Hubbard praised President
Harding's action in calling the un-
employment conference at Washing
ton, and expressed confidence in the
ultimate outcome.
American working men don't
want charity" he said. "They
want jobs. A lot Of merchants have
empty shelves and lots OF money,
but everybody is afraid. II we had
faith in God and faith in America
we could start now. In all cities in
America .Ien are planning to give
every honest man a job. and II these
wholesalers and these merchants
will follow the advice given out
from Washington, and cut prices
to an honest and fair basis, / don't
think there will be a great deal OF
difficulty.
III it wasn't for the hog, there
ought 10 be plenty Tor everybody.
God provides plenty; it is man who
is breaking Gods rules"
Human nature has always had
the hog disposition. The trouble
with America tonight. and the
trouble with the world tonight, is
that spirit OF greed. We have been
perfectly willing that one man
qhould havo a million and that an
other million should starve Hoard
ed wealth is rotten He said he
believed in men making money. but
