Fire inspectors Start
Check on Hazards in
Hotels, Apartments

A force of IS fire inspectors, work.
ling individually, today launched
survey of the city's lodging houses
apartments, hotels and places o1
public assembly as ordered by the
Commissioners in the wake Of At
lanta's Winecof hotel fire.
Fire Chief Clement Murphy said
he hoped to complete the survey In
a week. He estimated the inspectors
will visit between $500 and 1000 es-
tablishments.
In addition to inspecting the
places where persons live, shop
work and are entertained. homes for
the aged and infant asylums will be
examined, Chief Murphy said.
The city has been divided into
areas for which individual inspec-
tors will be held responsible, 1t was
explained.
The inspectors will be looking fol
everything" Chief Murphy said
They will determine whether fire
extinguishers are In their proper
places, whether sufncient exit lights
are provided and whether ire es-
capes are unobstructed. They Will
look for accumulations Of trash and
stored inflammable materials. They
will check stand pipes and sprinkler
systems, Chief Murphy said.
If any IRE hazards are found, he
explained, the inspectors will notify
the owners to correct the violation
and then will check back In two
days to be sure the fire hazard has
been removed.
Where fire inspectors believe doors
should open outward instead Of In
ward. that elevator shafts or stair
ways should be inclosed, or more
exits should be provided, they will
report their findings to the building
inspector for action.
Chief Murphy pointed out that
there have been fewer fires here in
the last six months than In the
coYnnarable r,eriod last wear.

Birth of a Profitable
Merchant Marine Trade

The West Indies and Canadian
trade had been a profitable one, it
was a trade where even small ships
could earn a profit. It provided
an outlet for much of the surplus Of
our produce. With these ports closed
to our ships over 10000 tons of ship
ping were idle.
American ingenuity and congress
sional action came to the rescue Of
the shipping interests. Larger ships
were built, ships to sail to the East
Indies. to China, to Europe, to
Africa. Congress passed the Navi-
cation act, closing our ports to the
imports of countries that closed
ports TO our ships. Almost immedi-
ately, our shipping responded to the
impetus, started to climb upward.
