Losses Business and
Industries, Noted
Fire Prevention Week

In connection with the local OBJ
servance Of Fire Prevention Week,
special emphasis is being laid upon
the fire losses sustained by business
and Industrial establishments.
major portion Of the fire waste which
on the average destroys property
valued at 1904 every minute
throughout the year is borne by
them.
In addition to the monetary loss
involved, another important factor is
the large number Of men thrown out
of employment by these disasters.
II a large fire should destroy one OF
the local business establishments the
entire community would suffer.
With their income shut off the unfor-
tunate employees would have a d.
unfinished purchasing power AMI local
business would probably fall off In
consequence. Some Of the employees
trained only in a certain line of work
might even be forced to move them
selves to another locality where i'm
mediate employment could be OBJ
tanned.
Despite the "No Smoking regula-
tons which are in effect in so many
business places, some workmen de-
light in taking a few puffs occa-
sionally. They probably feel the
mo Smoking" rule is nuisance and
are confident no harm can result
from their violation of 1t. They do
not know the careless use Of matches
and smoking stands out as the lead
ing cause of fire waste in the United
States and precautions taken by the
management are primarily to pro-
tect them and their fellow workmen
from unemployment. When these
facts are thoroughly understood the
heavy loss under this heading may
possibly be reduced.
