WIDE.AWAKE PATROLMEN
 PREVENT SERIOUS BLAZE
Break Through Plate Glass Door and Throw Blazing oil Stove
 Into Street

Promptness on the part of Patrol men Michael Massey and John Ken nedy, probably avoided serious fire at the corner, of North street and Hartford avenue this morning. when they burst into the w. r. O'Connor, Inc, drug store and threw out a blaz- ing oil stove.
 The policemen were patroling their beats about 1855 o'clock when they saw smoke pouring out of the drug store. Breaking through the plate glass door. they found an oil stove, which had been left burning, on fire. Patrolman Massey threw the blazing stove into the street, while Patrol man Kennedy turned in an alarm from box 47, after which both police men piled snow on the burning stove.
 Patrolmen Charles Anderson, Geoff. Moffitt and William McMur- ray. attracted by the excitement, ar rived simultaneously with the fire de- pertinent, as did Sergeant John King, but their services were not needed.
 Tn addition to the glass door brok- en by the police, the damage con sisted of badly smoked store room and some scorched tables, the latter to the narrow escape from } more serious conf1agration had the patrolmen not been on the job.

The first official act of Harry c Brown, whose appointment as fuel administrator was made out late yes terday afternoon by State Admins trator Russell, was to issue an appeal to property owners to clear away the snow from in front of their cellar windows and to provide pathway for men delivering coal.
 Coal dealers have called my at tention to this condition" Mir. Brown said to the Herald" As an example, one dealer told me that driver who usually makes seven trips in a day made only four yesterday because he could not get into the cellar windows until he shovellod a path.

 Cuts Time One-Third.
 With wood used as fuel, it is ne- cessary to burn a kiln for six days. Such terrific heat is generated by oil that the burning is completed in less than four days, effecting a reduc- ton of practically thirty per cent in time. Another important feature is the saving in labor. Instead of hay- ing a gang Of men on hand to feed wood to the combustion chambers day and night, brick yard which has in stalled oil burners will employ only two men to attend to the jets, one on Jays and the other nights.

POincare Arranges to Keep Allies Fully Informed on All Developments.

Paris. Jan. 9. (By Associated Press) Germany was voted in wilful default of her 1922 coal deliveries by the separations commission today at a session featured by an address by Roland w. Boyden, American repre- sentative with the commission, in which he severely criticized the work ings of the treaty of Versailles in certain respects.
 His statement made before the vote in the secret session was describ- ed by some of those who heard him as "a condemnation of the whole treaty of Versailles and suggestion that it should be revised as soon as possible in the interests of the eco- homie revival of Europe"
 Neither Mir. Boyden nor Col. James A. Logan, the other American repre- would discuss the proceed ings or their part in them, feeling that the Americans above all others should observe the secrecy imposed by the commission.
