Gas Cut-Of to Protect
Firemen Given Hearing
No Opposition 10 Measure. and
1t Probably Will Be Fa-
vorably Reported

The Committee on Buildings of the
Board Of Aldermen gave public hear
ing yesterday on the proposed ordi-
nance, introduced in the board at the
request of the Board of Standards and
Appeals, requiring owners Of all build
iugS now erected or to be erected in
the future to equip the outer wall with
gas cutoff valve attached to the gas
supply pipe before it reaches the meter.
so that the flow Of gas can be cut off
from the building in case Of fire or
any other occasion when necessary.
There was no opposition to the meas
ure. Representatives of the real estate
interests joined with Fire Chief John
henlon and William Z. Walsh, chair
man of the Board of Standards and Ap-
peals, in favoring the ordinance.
Chief Kcnlon and Deputy Chief
Henry B. Helm told of many cases
where firemen had died as a result OF
gas Inhalation, and declared the ordl-
nance should pass the board not only
because it was in the line OF progress
but was also in the interests Of life
speaking in favor of the ordinance,
said that the cost would be less than
500 to & building and that this would
bc offset to some extent BY the lower
ing in the premium Of the fire insur-
ance on buildings so equipped. The
committee will take the matter up in
executive session and probably will
report in favor of the ordinance

the meeting came to an end with most
Of his audience departing to go back
to the bank and deposit the money they
had just withdrawn
At the height Of the rush on the
bank q new alarm was raised by the
hysterical wailing of a woman who
had just withdrawn 500 and whose
pocket had been picked before she
could get through the crowd. Another
aged woman reported TO the police that
she had lost $4,000 in the crowd when
an unidentified man grabbed her pock-

sent to be on watch for thieves.
Mr.. Smulskl offered $4,000 reward
