THE ODDS AGAINST
DISASTER

The United States has not had
a major conhagration in many
years, but the odds are narrow
ing, warns the National Board OF
Fire Underwriters, now observ-
ing its jubilee year. From its
100000 card reports of fire
losses within the last seven years,
the National Board concludes
that the law Of averages and Lady
Luck have been working over
time to prevent devasting fire de-
struction in many American
cities.
Crowded population areas
with inadequate width OF streets
or dividing park areas to separ-
ate non-6reproof construction,
are dangers present in almost
every city. But the greatest
weakness in our defenses against
fire is public apathy, the Board
declares. Only by public educa-
tion regarding the enormous po-
tentialities for destruction in
every flame and every rubbish
heap, can the constant danger OF
a great fire be lessened.
We know what fire did to San
Francisco, to Chicago, to Balti.
more. And what happened before
can happen again unless the les.
sons produced by such great con.
flagrations are applied to the
towns and cities of today. Every
dilapidated building amounts ,o
an invitation to disaster. Every
inadequate fire department or
water system opens the doors tc
death and ruin. Every obsolete
building code may pave the way
for a holocaust. And the citizen
who takes no interest in such
matters is fires ally.
Fire is the universal enemy. I,
respects no mans property, nc
mans life. All men must fight il
together if it is to be beaten.
