Number Of Blazes Materially Lower
 Than 1883 Totals
Burned to Death-Canal Street Loss Estimated at $2O,OOO and Garden Building $I3,OOO

Eight persons were burned to death here during 1894, according to the annual report of Fire Mar shal Dennis J. Lahey. The report, issued today, shows that great progress in fire prevention was made in Waterbury during the past year, and that the number and seriousness of blazes has been ma |? terially lessened.
 The most serious of the years fires, from a damage standpoint, was a blaze at 31 Canal street last June, the los stotaling more than $20,000. Another damaging fire was one at the F. and w. Grand Co store on Bank street, which did damage of $12,000. Estimated dam. age caused by the recent Garden building fire, in which a number of nremen were injured, will run beyond $13,000.
 Marshal Lahey's report, taking in all the varied tasks performed by him and his staff offers a com plete picture of fire damage and fire prevention work here in the year which ended December 1.
 The report follows:
 To the Honorable Frank Hayes, The Mayor of Waterbury,
 Sir-We come again to the end of the Fire Year.. which recalls to our mind the old saying.

However. we hope our report will be interesting and readable to at least few of the good people of Waterbury.
 Tn the first place, let us again bring to the attention of the pub lie, the various duties of the office of the fire marshal. and the req son for the creation Of the office many years ago. and at a time when the department had only a limited number of permanent members. The general assembly included the position in the then charter adopted for tho city. and 1t has been in existence ever since. The main purpose of the act was to provide against fire and to make 1t so that the general public would be amply protected in all places of assembly. The law is the same today. In olden days, in certain parts of Europe it was the duty Of the fire marshal and his staff to make the rounds of the city day and night, during the winter sea son, and by the blowing of a trum- pet arouse the residents of all houses found with sparks coming from the chimney. "Get up and attend your fire" was the official warning given to the family head, by tho marshal and his workers. Failure to obey the command car ried a penalty.
 While we have not officially car ried this practice into operation, the fact is that fire warnings arc issued from this office almost daily. Fhe wonder is that more fires do not occur with some of the condi- tiohs, found. The hard times have

ARNETT DEFIED
EXPERT ADVICE,
PRObERS CLAIM
Took Hazardous Route in
Fog, Crashed Against
Peak, Is Finding.

Times Special
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2o.-Crash-
ing into a 10,000-foot mountain at
an altitude of $500 feet caused the
airplane crash which killed three
indianapolis persons near Clendo,
Wyo., Aug. -, the accident board
of the Bureau of Air Commerce re-
ported today.
Those killed were Pilot Richard
A. Arnett and his bride and Burn
side Smith, owner of the ship and
head Of the Aero Mayflower Transit
Co.
The report reads:
The airplane, en- route from
Helena, Mont, to Denver, Colo, left
Helena at approximately 4 p. m.
The pilot, against advice to the con-
trary, decided to fly direct route
to Denver rather than go around,
following the valleys and airways
used by other pilots.
The direct route took him across
some of the most dangerous flying
country in the West.
Poor Judgment" Charged
1.-THE airplane was next heard by
a rancher in the vicinity of Lara
ME Peak which is 10000 feet
high. Weather conditions were bad,
there being fog and rain.
THE rancher states that the air.
plane circled several times and then
proceeded in the direction of the
peak. From the wreckage, it is evil
dent that the airplane, flying at
an altitude of about $500 feet and
blinded by fog and the mountain
top, few directly into the side of
the mountain. Fire followed the i'm
pact.
1T is the opinion of the Accident
Board that the probable cause of
this accident was poor Judgment on
the part of the pilot for attempting
to unnecessarily fly over a hazard

RADIO AID To
FAMILY UNITY

CHICAGO, Jan. q U.P) - Presi-
dents of Is midwestern colleges and
universities agreed in a recent poll
that radio contributed to the pre-
servation of the American family as
social unit
Queried in survey made by the
association of arts and industries,
the educators said that private ra-
dio has served to retard the break
down of the family by successfully
competing with outside disintegra-
ting forces which in recent years
threatened to eliminate cultural
and educational life in the home.
Radio is force. they also said, in
keeping young people close to home
environment.
Supplementing discussions of this
social aspect of radio, the presidents
made recommendations for better
ment of programs. Included were:
l. Less dance music.
2. More discussions on controver-
sial subjects to stimulate thinking
on social problems.
3. Designing of programs for more
individual appeal to age groups.
A. Increased study to develop the
full potentialities of private RADIO.

WORLD COURT
SEEKING DELAY
BY ii. o. THOMPSON
United Press Staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, Jan. "a. U.P) -
Opponents of the World Court to-
day fought back against efforts of
administration leaders to press the
issue to an early vote.
Sen. Hiram w. johnson, (Rep)
Calf, declaring American "interna-
tionalists' were wavering in their
sponsorship of the court, said he
thought the vote should be delayed
until next week.
Joseph T. Robinson, administra-
ton leader, planned to seek an
agreement today for a vote tomor-
row or Saturday. If unable to ac-
complish that he intended to set a
definite time for a vote early next
week.
Robinson has been saving an i'm
portant announcement regarding
the reservations which various sena-
tors have proposed as safeguards to
American adherence in the court.
1t was believed he intended to ac-
cept, on behalf of the administra-
tion, the Vandenberg reservation
aimed against "entangling' the
United States in foreign political
questions.
Robinson, who claims more than
enough votes for ratification of the
court protocols, was expected to
speak against the Norris reservation,
which is not satisfactory to the ad-
ministration. The Norris reserva-
ton would require senate appro-
val of any particular question to be
taken up by the court.
Sen. Frederick Van Nuys, Dem.) r.,
Indiana, defended the court in a
statement denying court participa-
ton meant back door" entrance
