New Combustion Engineer
Assumes Duties; Begins
Work at Home
WARN OF PROSECUTION
Continual VioIators to Be
Hailed Into Court, Says
Commissioner.

Thorough inspection of the city
hall heating plant, with the view of
eliminating smoke, was the first task
confronting Fred G. Barton, rs, of
6125 Buckingham avenue, new city
combustion engineer.
Barton began his duties today
under Building Commissioner Will
liam F. Hurd and was assigned to
the city hall plant. The $4,000 a
year post created in the 1929 budget
was filled by the board of safety
after an engineering examination
was held
Barton, a registered professional
engineer, was the only applicant. He
was employed at the Van Camp
Packing Company.
1--WE will start our smoke abate-
ment drive at home and clean up
the city hall equipment before doing
anything else. We've had a number
of complaints on the city hall smoke
and I think that is the first job for
the department" said Commissioner
Hurd.
Start at City Hall
"a thorough inspection of the
city hall power plant and other city
equipment will be made to de-
termine what is needed. We do not
know whether new equipment is
needed or whether improper firing
methods are to blame.
EFF new equipment is desirable,
we will make recommendations to
the board of works and city coun-
Gill;" Hurd said.
A city-wide educational campaign
for abatement of smoke will be
started under Barton's direction.
AS combustion engineer, he will
take over duties of James Knox,
former smoke inspector.
Elimination of smoke can be
brought about by using proper fir
ing methods and modern smoke
eliminating equipment, he says.
11lC UU4lA1l1S COl1ul1oS1OllCl . O4-
flee will look over plans for all new
installations and reject power
plants which do not meet with pro-
visions of the building code. In
stallation of devices to prevent ex-
cessive smoke will be recommended
to industries with old-type equip
ment.
Prosecution to Follow
Persistent violators who refuse to
cooperate with the city officials will
be prosecuted for violation of the
smoke ordinance, Hurd announced.
Hearty cooperation of the public
was asked in the drive to abate the
long prevalent smoke nuisance.
1--WE have had 100 per cent CO.
operation from railroads in elimi-
mating smoke. We desire the same
spirit of assistance in other quart
ers," Hurd declared.
