examination at the psychopathic
ward
Hawkins said today that about ten
or twelve such patients had been
refused admittance at the ward in
the past three months.
Dunn said he has intended writing
the city "a nice letter" explaining
the action but press of business
caused him to put 1t off.
Charges Denied
DR.. Cleon Nafe denied residents

officials mean. as | am sure a little
investigation will show we have not
limited out patients to city resi-
dents"
DIR. Nafe said he has refused ad-
mittance to some suspects held by
the sheriff, but 1t was because they
came from other places than Marion
County, or for some other reason,
and not for the reason they didn't
live in Indianapolis.

law with providing for care of in.

Losche. They keep them in Jail
or in the ward, as somebody else

declared insane at an inquest"
The arrangement about tho ward
was merely an agreement between
county commissioners and the city,
declared Losche.

right. The board Of health brought
the action on itself"
Dunn pointed out that more than
80 per cent of the patients observed
at the psychopathic ward came from
inside the city.
1.-THE county was paying the whole
bill, and not complaining until the
city refused to accept the very CON-
parative few from the rest OF the
county. 1t is a matter of double
taxation. that's all, and the principle
of not meeting us half way"
The psychopathic ward has been
functioning well, in the opinion of
the authorities. Persons admitted
are held a period for observation, un-
der humane conditions, and as a re-
suit about so per cent have been
discharged as not needing to be com
mitted to an asylum for the insane.
Under the old system OF holding in.

larger percentage found their way

beauty, fresh air and space. This
particular section has during the
past year grown into one of the
most desirable residential and apart
ment sections of the city and owing
to the surrounding territory 1t will
never be overcrowded.
Mr. Hazard stated in an interview
that he had never been connected
with any apartment that had proven
to be so popular and maintained al
most 100 per cent satisfaction TO
every tenant. At the present time
there is very few vacancies In any
of the three buildings and from the
outlook it will be only a matter OF
a few weeks before they will have
to maintain a waiting list. Owing
to the great amount Of criticism OF
apartments during the past rev
months the large increase in tenants
of this particular building is great
recommendation and compliment.

1.-The rapid trend Of business to

Smith. manager of the building,
said yesterday. He added:
Another thing looked upon
with favor by the tenants and
prospective tenants 10 the fact
that this building carries one of
the lowest fire insurance rates
of any office building in the city.
Our building. too, is warm in
winter and cool in the summer.
This is due partly to the con-
struction and partly to the equip
ment. The building is equipped
with screens and awnings for
every room. This idea was i'm
ported from New York city and
I believe our building is the only
one in Washington that supplies
these conveniences to all tenants.

crease the fire resistance of the
construction very little, the fire
being communicated through the
glass. AS used for top or finish
flooring in fire resistive buildings,
the contribution to the fire hazard
is greater, since in the ordinary
office or residence building it would
furnish about one half of the COM
bustible material.
Fire-retarding paints and similar
surface applications have small
value due to the extreme thinness
of the resulting film of mineral
material. Coats of sodium silicate,
white wash, or both with the for
mer as a primer, have been found
as effective for interior use as any
proprietary, application. Heavier
coatings, as Of plaster and mortar,
have been used on welkseasoned
timber in dry locations, but must
be recommended with caution On
account of possibility of inducing
decay of the wood and preventing
it's condition from being observed.
In treatments involving impregna-
ton Of chemicals under pressure,
a greater amount of fire-resisting
effects are attained, timber so
where the surrounding air tempera-
lures are not much above normal,
although it willie char and burn at
the higher temperature incident
with fires in buildings.
Iron and Steel.
The introduction of iron and
steel made possible modern struc.
tural framing, which made greater
heights and longer suans more
generally possible than with timber
and masonry. Problems were how.
ever created in protecting the
framework against fire, structural
steel and cast iron failing under
working loan at low red heat,
which unprotected members will
attain in building fires after short
exposures. A number of mater
ials are available for this purpose,
including burnt clay units, cast
units Of concrete and gypsum,
monolithicf concrete and gypsum,
and plaster on incombustible bases.

LECTURE
S. II. Ingberg Tells of the Fire
Resisting Qualities of
Building Material

| The fire-resisting qualities OF
building materials and construction
methods was explained and Illus,
trated to the sales department Of
| McKeever & Goss, Washington
realtors at a recent meeting Of that
organization by S. H. Ingberg,
chief of the Fire Resistance In
vestigation Section of the Bureau
Iof Standards. Mr.. Ingberg illus
, trated' his lecture by lantern slides
showing tests and the results of
tests made in the laboratories of
the Bureau of Standards.
The term "fireproof'' while gen
orally accepted by the trade and
public, is actually a misnomer, as
all building materials are subject
to damage or destruction by fire,
according to Mr.. Ingberg. The
proper term to use according to
him, is fire resistance"
This talk was one in a series
being conducted by McKeeVer &
Goss Of the regular weekly meet
ings of that organization in order
to make it's sales force more IA
miliar with the various methods
used in construction and the ap-
plication of new ideas to modern
building. Other subjects in the
series have been Bricks and Brick

age to the construction. This fire
prevention work, expressed through
the medium of structures is neces-
sarily slow in yielding results, but
as old buildings are replaced and
new construction reflects the knowl-
edge gained in the laboratory and
the field of fire experience, a bet
ter general type will eventually pre-
dominate, less subject to destruc-
ton by Whim of circumstance or
human carelessness, and that will
spread the destruction less readily
to the neighboring construction.
The general fire resistive proper
ties of building materials in COM
mon use will now be BRIEFLY con-

Wood.
While the unrestricted use of
wood in the prevailing American
type of framed construction is re-
sponsible for considerable por-
ton of the excessive fire waste
there are used of wood that can
not be considered Objectionable
from any fire prevention stand
point and the fire hazard incident
with it's use for main structural
members can be greatf' decreased.
AS used for isolated trim in fire
resistive buildings wood does not
contribute appreciably to the spread
of fire and burns with difficulty.
The same is the case as used in
room partition supports, door and
window frames, although here the
stability of the supporting or sup
ported construction may" be af-
fected. Where plain glass in con-
