city limits which affected water ia
cilitieS.
Water to feed the two monster
hose lines and several smaller ones
had to come from the nearest city
hydrant, a block away, Chief Ste
wart said. Water also was pumped
from nearby canal.
Nearby Buildings Safe
The plant, located at Malan and
Ninth street, is across the Southern
Pacific tracks from the District
Diesel standby power plant. No
other buildings were endangered,
however.
Neither Craig nor Chief Stewart
was able to fix the cause of the
blaze. Craig declared ne was sure
the fire did not start from engine
sparks or combustion.
Cork lined walls, that fell in and
smouldered many hours after the
fire was under control, accounted
for burns on most of the firemen.
Bits of blazing cork filed the air.
Must be Rebuilt
The three main storage rooms
will have to be completely rebuilt,
Craig declared today. The daily
delivery section, although not COM
pletely destroyed, will have to be
torn down and reconstructed. The
other two sections were DANA ged
beyond repair. The entire building
was erected at a cost of 100000,
Craig said.
Preceding machinery however,
slated to be started up today,
VIII only be delayed a few days, it
was estimated.
Construction of the plant was
begun in January and the storage
rooms were not yet fully completed.

the organization statement to the
