ming commission ard work of the
zoning commission. The way is
clear for adoption now.
The uniform building code was
adopted by the Pacific Coast Build
erS Conference in 1925, and since
that time has been adopted by
such cities as Pasadena, Long
Beach, Berkeley, Pomona, Sacra-
nlento. South San Francisco, San
Jose, San Rafael and Utica, New

In Imperial Valley the code is
already in effect in Brawley and
Calcxico, while Yuma also uses it.
Tho code establishes regulations
ii accordance with modern build
ing methods, and contains engi-
necring regulations, requirements
based on locations in fire zones.
and regulations based on type OF
construction. 1t represents the
combined knowledge of hundreds
Of experienced builders. Provided
for in the code is a board of exam
liners consisting of an architect
builder. attorney and two structur-
al engineers with 10 years Of prac-
tical experience.
The uniform building code repre-
scnts the first complete building
ordinance prepared jointly by such
large number Of cities, and eStab-
fishes in complete form the use of
various building materials and
combinations of these materials &C
cording to known fire resistance.

lives OF FORTY
ENDANGERED BY
HOSPITAL FIRE

BROOKLINE, Mass, Nov. T. UP
- Wind whipped flames raced
through the nurses home atop
! Corey Hill early today, forcing
nurses to leap from windows and
imperilling the lives of some 40 pa
,ients at nearby Brooks Hospital.
Fircmen from here, Boston and
Newton, handicapped by below
freezing temperature, battled the
spectacular blaze for more than an
hour and half before 1t was con-
trolled
An almost gale-like wind lashed
the burning building. located on one
of the highest points in greater Bos-
ton. and had the breeze been IN an
other direction. the adjoining noSpl-
tai doubtless would have been
doomed.
The fire was discovered almost
simultaneously by Miss Vivian
Campbell, telephone operator OF the
nurses home, who was asleep IN her
third floor room, and Edward Mil
len, who saw the flames from his
neighboring home.
Miss Campbell awakened Miss
Christina Hagan and Miss Sophie
Kane, nurses with rooms on the
same floor. The three young wom-
en- soon discovered that flames and
smoke had cut off their exit by the
only stairway Without waiting TO
dress they leaped from window
to the porch roof two stories below
and then to the ground.
Other nurses. the Misses Cora
Spindler. Sadie Snow, Pauling Fltz-
gerald, Christine Small and Marcia
Davis, and two men employees OF
the hospital, AXel Nelson and Reg
inald Foster. escaped unassisted
Nurses on night duty at the near
by hospital stood by, prepared to
move patients to safety should the
wind switch, but this proved un-
necessary.
Damage was estimated at $4,000
Cause of the fire has not been de-
termined.

UNIFORM BUILDING CODE
SHOULD BE SUCCESS HERE

Recommended by the city plan
ming commission, and passed at
FIRST reading BY the city council
Wednesday night. the Pacific Coast
Uniform Building Code, which
within 30 days is expected to be
! adopted for FL Centre, is at present
! in force in over 85 cities from coast

The building code was recon-
mended by the city planning COM
mission, with minor changes and
reservations governing small dwell
ings and arcadcs over streets.
Since requirements OF the code
arc based on minimum safe stand
3rds, no unnecessary building costs
are entailed. For this reason the
code should prove popular with
local builders.
The present building code in force
in FL Centre was adopted as an
emergency ordinance in 1915, and
vas designed to take care of Garth
quake reconstruction. It was thrown
together hurriedly and for this rea-
son is rather incomplete

CHAMBER CALLS
ATTENTION TO
TRADE MENACE

With the coming Of cold weather
in other parts OF the United States
the winter influx of houSe-tO- house
statesmen is noted in El Centro and
& number of reports have been re-
ceived lately by the El Centro
Chamber CT Commerce that these
statesmen have become SO numerous
that they are actually annoying to
the housewife. For the first time
the chamber has also noted that
these statesmen are soliciting the
chamber Of commerce staff, even
while knowing that the chamber IS
supported by local merchants and ls
organized for the benefit OF those
merchants.
The argument put up By house
toulouse statesmen, according to K.
B. WhitelaW, president of the local
chamber, is in many cases that the
salesman himself is valley resident
and must make q living; therefore,
by buying from him, the customer
is actually buying at home. While
there is some truth in the state
ment, WhitelaW points out, the fact
remains that only the salesman S
percentage Of the sale stays IN I'M
perial Valley and only one locai per-
son is benefited by the sale; the
remaining 80 per cent, more or less,
goes to the east or to foreign coun-
tries where the product is manutac-
tureG On the other hand, states
Whitclaw, if merchandise is bought
from a local retail merchant, the
entire amount of the purchase re-
mains in the valley and gees into
circulation through salaries TO en-
ployeeS, taxes, improvements and
actual living expenses to the en-
ployees and owners of the store.
Nearly every person il e. Centre IS
in some way connected with retail
firm of some kind. and each Of
these people is dependent upon local
sales for his support, states White
law; therefore, every time he buys
from salesman representing an
out-Of- town company he is actually
depriving himself of prosperity. The

urges all the housewives OF FL Cen
tro to consider their matter care
fully and not to be influenced by
the direct sales talk which the sales
