MAY PROVIDE SITE
FOR fire station
City Hall Commission to Act on
North End Situation

meeting of the city hall commits
sion will be held Friday evening. Ac-
ton will be taken on the request of
the board of fire commissioner to have
the old Shipman school site in Belvi-
dere be transferred to the board as a
site for new fire house.
1t is believed that there will be no
opposition to the proposed transfer.
Under an amendment to the charter
which was passed at the last session
of the legislature, the city hall COM
mission was made custodian of all
city's property not specifically used by
any other board. This relieves the
board Of finance and taxation from
much work. The old Shipman school
site has not been utilized by the school
committee in many years, and is To-
Gated in the heart of a section not
now adequately provided with facili-
ties for combating fires.

BANKS USING SCIENCE
TO BATTLE CROOKS
Robbers Must Be Post Graduate of
the University of Crookdom In
Order to Succeed.

Chicago, Sept. 6.-The bank rob-
Der of today is post graduate of the
university Of crookdom and his
method of cracking safes are i'm
proving just as other inventions of
theories are being improved upon in
the evolution of things.
This fact. according to the Illinois
Bankers association, has led to pro-
tective measures by banks that are
based on the very latest and most
scientific lines. The bankers accord
ing to the association, have long
since ceased to believe that any safe
is impregnable to the fingers, acety-
lene torches or soup" of the modern
bank robber.
Accordingly the bankers now are

ter. At that time there was no men
ton of site, but 1t was later sug-
gested that an effort be made to Sc
cure the Shipman site. The request for
an appropriation was turned down.
1t Is the boards plan to bring in a
similar request this year and the re-
quest for use of the city's land is the
first step in renewal of agitation for
new fire house.

/ concerned with building safes that
will give the robber the most trouble
to OPEN. When new vaults are con-
structed, they are built from the
standpoint of how long it would take
an expert safe cracker to enter them,
rather than from a viewpoint of
being absolutely impregnable.
What the bankers. call tin. door
safes" are safes with doors of one
half-inch steel. Statistics show that
these can be opened with an acetylene
torch in 80 minutes. Therefore the
association wants round or screw
doors 3ls inches in thickness.
In addition to keeping in touch
with the construction of safes, the
association has, divided the state into
ten districts, with an inspection
department operating in each district.
At regular intervals each bank is in
spected with a view to improving its
protective features.
