Aged Woman
Victim OF Fire

Mrs. Refugio Vida. de Ramirez,
70, died at 4:45 am, Tuesday from
burns suffered in a fire which des-
troyed the home of her daughter,
Mrs. John jenkins, a short distance
this side of the city limits on the
Patagonia road Monday night.
The fire started about 10:45 pm.,
and a neighbor, Mrs. Maria Moody,
phoned the fire department. De-
fective wiring is said to have been
the cause of the blaze.
The aged woman was alone at the
time, her daughter and family hav-
ing just left on trip to California.
Mrs. Ramirez is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. jenkins, and two
sisters, Mrs. Josefita Vega de Mar
timex, and Miss Genoeveva Vega,
both of Nogales, Sonora.

Warning Issued
Bv Fire Chief

A warning to Nogales citizens was
issued yesterday by Louis Escalada,
chief of the Nogales Fire Depart
ment, about defective wiring in
homes.
OF the last four fires in this city,
two have been caused by defective
wiring, resulting in death and loss
of property, he said.
The practice of placing coins or
metal objects behind burnt out fuses
is dangerous in the extreme, and
leads to the burning out of the en-
tire wiring system in buildings and
consequent fire damage.
Local residents are requested to
inspect their wiring and fuse boxes,
and if any reasonable doubt exists
they may call the fire department
and an inspection of the wiring and
fuses will be conducted at no charge,
but merely as an added precaution-
ary measure to insure against fire
hazards in the city.
To insure complete protection,
both the interior and exterior wir-
ing of homes and business buildings
should be checked, said Chief Esca-
lada.
