Connecticut Third State To Develop
Model Code Of BUILDING Standards

housed a large portion of the day.
Connecticut's code will provide
health, fire protection and structural
safety measures not only in homes,
but in all buildings where people work ;
the code will be left entirely to vOlun-
tary local adoption and enforcement.
Where permits are not required for
electrical installations and no regular
inspections are made, many hazards
have resulted, housing authority
study shows. In some localities 70 per
cent of the fires have been caused by
defective wiring. Lack of proper
plumbing regulations also is serious
menace, the association says.
Advisory Group To Aid
The model code will be developed
with the assistance Of a consultant and
building code advisory committee.
Each portion of the proposed code as
prepared by the consultant will be sub
mitted to the advisory committee for
study.

Ohio and Wisconsin already have
taken such action to remedy confusion
in the field of construction standards.
Need OF Code Proven
Studies made of existing building
regulations in Connecticut have proven
the need of code, the National Asso-
ciation of Housing Officials say. There
is little uniformity in existing codes,
and most of them are out of date be-
cause of the difficulty of securing nee
essary funds and personnel for revi-
sion.
A modern code, periodically revised
and properly enforced, is important to
all, property owners and prospective
property owners i'm the state, the asso-

L. U. Nc. 4 Making Effort to
Completely Eliminate
Bad Practice

As | sat in the regular Monday
evening session of Local Union No. 4
listening to the various opinions on
starting to work before the regular
starting time and taking thirty min
utes for lunch, | was reminded of a.
remark made years ago concerning Il
local pottery.
A local patrolman, in making his
routine rounds in the wee hours of the
night, was heard TO remark that the
said pottery was lighted up to such an
extent, il resembled an ocean liner
docking at a pier, said wee hour
being 1 o'clock in the morning.
Now we most certainly have no de
sire to 90 back TO those good old days.

We note with deep satisfaction the
marked trend of some Ceramic

since 1889, it is likely that such dual
employment is a somewhat more i'm
portant factor now than years ago.
AS was TO be expected the bulk of
the expansion, 612 million or almost
z of the total, was in the manufac-
turing division and was concentrated
almost entirely in the munitions indus
tries.
The increases of about = million in
government and l million in transpOr-
tation and public utilities also reflect
the widespread effects of the war ac-
tivity.
Building Hard Hit
The only large decline was in con-
struction. This industrial activity ex-
panded between March, 1899 and Sep
tember. 1941 but has declined there
after because of government restric-
tions on private building. The increase
in the first 212 years amounted to
slightly more than l million employees;
the decrease since that time was al
most million, indicating a net decline
of about 100000 over the years.

Because East Detroit won out
standing honors in the Christ
mas Seal Sale, a special X-ray
clinic has been arranged at East
Detroit High School March 20,
from to 1870 a. m. and from
l to 4 p. m. Cooperating in the
program are Miss Rose Bam-
berger, school nurse, Arnold j.
Linden, X-ray technician, and
Elaine Abbott, field representa-
tive of the Michigan Tubercu-
losis Association.
This clinic has the approval
of DR.. w. A. Sibrans, East De-
troit Health Officer.
Tuberculin testing clinics have
been scheduled for the kinder
garten, first grade, sixth grade,
high school, and school en-
ployees as follows:
March 10 - from 9 to 11:30
a. m. st. Veronica School; from
l to 4 p. m. st. Peters Lutheran

The general public is invited

their convenience, an opportun-
ity will also be offered March

ALI who have positive reac-
tions to the test and who have
through the Michigan Tubercu-
losis Association are invited to
attend the X-ray clinic at the
East Detroit High School on
March 20. A positive reaction
simply indicates that the per-
son has been around someone
with tuberculosis at some time
in his life. All the other men,
bers of the family should be
checked to be sure that there is
no unsupported case in the home.
About 10 per cent of children
and so per cent of adults are
apt to react to tuberculin, but
X-ray studies reveal that only
one per cent show that any
damage has occurred to the
lungs. In Selective Service and
industries where everyone is X
rayed, the same rate of one per
cent is found and many of these
cases are already healed. How
ever, it is important for every
one to have a tuberculin test
and X-ray il the reaction is pos
tive to be sure that he is free
from this prevertable disease.
There are no symptoms in early
tuberculosis.
Physicians are invited to give
patients who have a positive tu-
berculin test a written referral
for an X-ray If they have not
been previously X-rayed through
