be Made to Minimize Losses He Says.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening.


Washington, Sept. 21.-President
Harding today issued proclamation
Monday, October 3, as
national fire prevention day. The fire
waste in the United States year after
year, the president declared, reaches
appalling figures which are not ap-
preached in any other country. There
ought to be especial effort, he added,
to minimize such losses.
The text of the proclamation fol-
lows:
1t has become a nationwide GUS

day: and in recognition of this
excellent precedent, l am herewith

zens, especially those in authority
in the states and cities, to the de-
STABILITY of continuing the ebserv-
ance this year and making it as
impressive as possible.
1t has long been "A reproach to
our country that by reason of poor
construction, inadequate facilities
fer fire prevention, and an all too
general carelessness about possible
causes of confiagration, our fire
waste reaches figures year after
year which are not approached in
any other country in the world.
Mindful of the fire waste which is
expressed in figures so huge as to
be appalling, it may be emphasized

TERMINAL PROJECT
EXPECTED TO Be
COMPLETE JAN. |
Council Win Authorize Last of
Bond Issues Necessary
for Work.
THIS ITEM WILL BE $500, 900

City Council at it's meeting tonight
will have presented 20 IL an ordinance
providing for n bond issue of $780,
600 for the new marine terminal work
and after two readings the ordinance
will be referred to the finance COM
mite and probably adopted next week.
This is the amount asked for by the
Board of Harbor Commissioners two
or three weeks ago when ic~was stated
this sum will be necessary this fall to
meet heavy payments that will be
falling due for the work that has been
completed on the harbor.
When these s7Oo,0Q0 bonds have
been sold there will remain about
$500, 900 of the original bond issue of
S2.500,000 authorized for the harbor
project. The new bond issue will pro-
vide enough money 10 pay for the
installation of practically all ma
chinery and equipment and also 10
meet the construction bills so that
the remaining 100000 will be held in
reserve as an emergency fund TO be
used by the board as the occasion re-
quires for the finishing touches to the
terminal. 1t is the desire that the
proceeds from the $4,000 bond sale
be available not later than November
| 10 and arrangements for the sale will
be made by the Sinking Fund Com
missioners in accordance with this
date.
