Amazing Negligence

To whom the safeguarding of human life in
Richmond has been intrustcd 1t is true
those officials were hamporcd by lack of
authority. They were without power to
close the hotel during Il period of cytraor-
binary hazard. But the records of the af-
fair do not show that there was any ma rk cd
degree OF agitation over the dangerous state
OF things; no extraordinary effort, ii ap-

Lexington from sudden multiplication Of
their risks. Public officials. particularly

On the Upgrade

LOW definitely the economic situation is
on the mend may be gathered from
two significant news stories appearing in
the local columns Of The Times Dispatch to-
day. One relates To building operations in
Richmond during the month OF February;
the other To export shipments from Rich
mund's tobacco factories during the months
Of January and February. Thus. Il will he
seen, they bear with the utmost dircctness
upon fundamentally important phases OF the
economic status. particularly with respect
TO the fortunes of this city
The building figures arc frcightcd with
promise for the new year in Richmond As
compared with the record for tho same
month last year. the mark set in February
is higher by more than a million and Il half
dollars. An even more significant statement
Of the matter is that the past month has
set new monthly record for Richmond s
building department. The number OF pro-
jcctcd residential structures is particularly
worthy of remark: under this head may be
found an unmistakablc forecast of suhstan-
tial relief from our housing shortage in the
near future.
Coming to the item of tobacco exports we
again find proud records passing into total
eclipse. For the January February period
OF this year. Richmond's tobacco factories
