RESPONSIBILITY for the fire,
and blame for the death of 10.

Kennedy, Building Commissioner
Paul Gerhardt, and the Fire De-
partment, by Henry Meihs. direc-
tor, Progressive Citizens of Amer
lea Tenants and Housing Council.
Meihs said:
These people would not have
died. had our city code been en-
forced. II is the responsibility of
Mayor Kennedy and our city
officials to enforce the code.
Regulations calling for adequate
exits and fire escapes. and many
other regulations were obviously
violated in this building. There
are hundreds upon hundreds of
buildings throughout the city.
where violations of the city code
are allowed TO exist.
Negligent administration has
surely murdered these people"

That fire could have been-should
