COUNSEL APPROVES
FIRE REGULATIONS
Stephens Gives Tentative
Sanction to Proposals
of Chief Watson.

Drastic regulations proposed by Fire
Chief George Watson. designed to make
fireproof asylums and charitable in
stitutions in the District were approved
tentatively today by Francis II.
Stephens. corporation counsel. Before
submitting the new regulations to the
Commissioners for approval Mr..
Stephens will study them thoroughly to
ascertain If congressional Legislation
Is necessary to put them into effect.
The new regulations were drafted as
sequel to the destructive fire at the
Bruen Home. Chief Watson contends
that there are other institutions of its
type, frame in construction. which
would be fire traps in the event of a
conflagration.
The chief recommendation of Mr.
Watson is the abolition within five
years of all frame buildings housing
orphans. invalids and others dependent
on charity. Fireproof, brick structures
are called for.
Mr.. Watson believes that the expense
Of replacing some of the institutions
now regarded as unsafe in the case of
fire will force them to close or con-
solidate with other institutions having
fireproof buildings Such an amaga-
nation is desirable, the fire chief con-
tends, and would result in economy of
operation. James A Stuart, agent of
the Board of Children's Guardians, is
strongly in favor of the new regula-
tons.

TRADE TRAINING
SCHOOL IS
PLANNED
Cosmopolitan Club Is Backing
New and Unique Institu-
ton for Capital.

Plans for the organization Of a
trade training school are being de-
veloped by committee Of the Co.'S
mopolitan Club, According to in
formation available today, il is pro.
posed to establish a school where
practical trades will be taught by
practical teachers. The school. it
Is understoodr will be maintained
In part by tuition fees and in part
by contributions.
No such institution exists in the
National Capital, and it is the be-
lief OF those interesting themselves
in its organization that eventually
1t will become a national trade
training university.
Need Is Felt.
The committee now working ON
the plan is composed Of men en-
gagged in various trades >who have
felt and continually feel the need
of such an institution. AS was
pointed out today fewer ap-
prentices are in training in the
more important trades than can
possibly supply the demand for
practical mechanics which Ia stead.
lily increasing each year.
washington is declared to be the
logical center for the organization
OF trade training university. This
has been recognized by labor lead
ers aid manufacturers. In connec.
ton with such a school, it is as
stunned, that. to a certain degree,
it can be made in part self.support-
ing through the sales Of its prod.
uctS. In labor circles, 1t is said,
no opposition would be made to the
marketing Of such products prop
erly labeled.
Outline Being Prepared.
The committee is expected to pre-.
sent . tentative outline of the plan
It suggests within a short time.
The club meets at the Franklin
Square Hotel and when the report
is presented guests interested in
vocational training will be invited.
Every man engaged in any of
the mechanical trades as business
understands the increasing shortage
Of skilled mechanics" said a mem
Der Of the club. MANY men apply
ing for work are found to be little
more competent than common lab
orers. We are getting the increas-
Ing reaction. resulting from the
elimination or curtailment OF the
apprentice system, and some such
step as trade training university
is necessary. There is no better To-
cation for such an institution than
Washington, which Is free from
manufacturing and trade infTo-
ences.
