Coplously Illustrating his talk, the Yale professor turned the stage of the auditorium Into Q laboratory, in which he performed experifnnt after experiment to drive home var- ious lessons about fire with which air raid wardens should be ac- quainted.
 Prof. Dietrich explained that ex- tipguishing a fire means actually slowing down the reaction which ocurs in a material during combus- ton, and may be accomplished by cooling the substance in question to point below Its kindling temper ature, excluding air from 1t or both. Sand and water are examples of tho first type of eXtinguisher, carbon tetrachlo1de of the second, and other chemical mixtures, of the third.
 The prospective wardens sat en- grossed while the speaker calmly produced flames and explosions on the stage, and aS calmly proceeded to extinguist them. Selection of the appropriate means of eXtinguishing fires must depend, he stated, on the properties of the combustlble sub- stance, and of it's location.
 Deputy Chief Henry Thomas of the Hartford fire department spoke on the cooperation between wardenS and the fire department. He also produced wooden thermite bomb of the ytpe used hy the Nads in their raids in London, and explained It's mechanism. He spoke of the tasks of the industrial warden in educating others to the proper care Of equipment, and its proper use. He stressed the neceslsty of freuuOnt checking of tlre-flghting apparatus, to determine It's efficacy. Most of the fires involving heavy losses are attributable to delayed alarms, he stated.
 A motion picture of fires in Lon- don last year was shown to conclude an eventful evening for the 600 reg iStrantS who attended the session. Director ]. Francis Roland an nouneed that the speakers ct Tues- day evenings session will be Prof. Howard Haggard of Yale, speaking on Protection Against Gas" and Maj, Herbert D. dallaudet. formerly of this city, and now director Of air raid warden schools throughout the state, who will talk on Cooper. ation with Police and Control of Panic"

Cleveland gas liquefaction plant
there and find its possible appli-

which gas is liquefied. and thus
easily stored. had saved Cleveland
81 100000, the price of an addi-

claimed that part of its present
rates are based on the cost of

facilities as a standby service for
emergency use. Various gas stor-
age plants have been suggested for
replacing this.
