 CAUSE OF ALARM

Considerable steam and water damage was caused this morning at the home of Mrs. Richard Burns, A Beecher avenue, when the expan- sion tank of her hot water heating system became overheated.

 Companies answering the call were in charge of Acting Deputy Chief Martin J. Campion. Fire Marshal Den Lahey and his staff investi- gated.

FIRE PREVENTION

Governor Harry w. Nice has des-
ignated October to Is as Fire Pre-
vention Week, and most fire depart
ments throughout Maryland will par
ticipate in some manner in this annual
campaign to protect life and preserve
property.
The dormant public must awaken to
the danger of fire, and their cooper
alton is needed to reduce fires in all
parts of the country.
Serious thought should be given to
Fire Prevention Week and any fire
company making frey inspections
should have wholehesrted cooperation
of the public. ]. Lloyd Hopkins, An
napolis, chairman of the Fire Proven
ton and Inspection committee Of the
State Association, says that "fire in
spections are especially valuable be
cause they lead to the removal of rub
Dish and material often thought harm
less by the public but which in reality
. are dangerous because they are read
lily susceptible to spontaneous igni-
ton.
Survey of localities where inspec-
ttions are made clearly shows a notice
hble reduction in fires, in many in
stances as much as SO per cent
Any correction of existing hazards
will reduce the number of fires and
decrease fire losses which will be re-
fected in lower insurance premiums.
The Importance of individual fire in
spections can be seen from the rec
ords that show that 62 per cent of the
lives lost from fires are in dwellings,
the greater part of which is among
children, and clearly demonstrates
that our homes can stand more care

page from the successful campaign
book of 1916 when the Democrats won
an unexpected victory on the "he

On the other hand there are states
men who profess to see in Mr.. Roose-
welt statesman whose deep sympathy
is with the democratic nations of Eu-
rope and who expresse the belief that
he might swing America to the side of
the allies when favorable opportunity
is offered. They will assert therefore
that now is no time to elect rubber
stamp men to Congress. The country
is faced with real danger, they say,
and the American Congress should re-
gain its constitutional prerogative of
passing on the foreign policy of the
country. Some of this kind of argu-
ment has already been heard in the
primary campaigns, and it was ad-
vanced, although not developed to any
great degree, by Senator Tydings in
his fight against the Presidential
purge.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-10-06

paramount have faded into, compare
tive insignifcance. The threat of the
World War has been hanging over the
universe like a pail. Even in America,
more than 1000 miles away from the
seat Of trouble, the people have thrust
aside domestic problems for the mo-
ment to wonder what is going to be-
come of Europe.
Earlier in the campaign it was be-
lieved that the question of relief and
relief expenditure would play major
part in the campaign. The Presidents
purge, it has been predicted, would
leave deep scars on the Democratic
front. Undoubtedly this is true to an
extent, yet in the closing days of the
purge, even, political headlines were
given way to news from Europe.
Just what will emerge as the big is
sue before election day rolls around
cannot be safely predicted at this
writing. But there are many political
prophets who believe that the cam
paign will not be far different, in its
appeals, from the campaign of 1916,
when President Wilson was asking for
reelection to the Presidency because
che keeps us out of war" At this par
ticular time the American people want
more than anything else to be- kept
away from active participation in the
war-torn politics of Europe. And for
this reason it is believed that Euro
pean problems will play an increasing
part in the closing days of this cam
paign.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-10-06

If this situation comes about thea
the Republicans ought easily to shed
that spirit of defeatism which caused
many of them to be frightened by the
thought that it is impossible to beat
four and half billion dollars. The
people may easily be thinking about
something else when election day rolls
around.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-10-06

So, before election day rolls around,
the voters are very likely to be con-
fronted by the slogan "stand by the
President and elect men to Congress
who will stand by him and steer US
safely between the shoals of European
warfare" And on the other hand we
will hear the demand that the voters
send to Congress men of clear vision
and determination who will use their
own judgment in helping to frame a
foreign policy for the nation.
