Be Fixed for Theater
Disaster.

Congress- was asked to FIX crimi-
blame for the Knickerbocker
heater disaster in a speech yester-
'Hy, by Representative William D.
Tbshaw, Georgia, uncle of 16-year-
old Caroline Upshaw. who died from
injuries received in the crash.
Somebody Is grossly guilty. The
barel walls that stand comparatively
intact around that scene of horror.
witness with gaunt and silent con-
demnation against the builders of
that theater," representative Up
shaw declared. AS an experienced
builder. who is a member OF Con-
gress. said to me Human life was
sacrificed in order to cheaper the
cost of that roof
There was simply no stable con-
nection between the roof and walls.
II there had been the walls would
at least have been partly shattered
when the roof went down with
weight enough to destroy and main
the lives and bodies of hundreds
The main point is that the roof
would not have fallen IL the main
girders had had suficient bearings
in the lintels." Representative Up
shaw explained.
Representative Upshaw praised
the activities of the Investigations
conducted to date. There has been
no evidence of a whitewash as many
feared there might be. and I believe
the Senate investigation after the
District Investigations close will
elp to fix. not only the criminal.
VT the civil responsibility for this
csime against humanity
He told the House of his investi-
cations OF the ruins of the disaster
in company with an expert contrac-
to and physician.
