The steel industry contract runs

there is no provision in the agree

Revistons Approved

Revisions in the Districts fire
alarm regulations jointly recon-
mended by recently-retired Fire
Chief Clement Murphy and Su-
perintendent of Communications
Herbert A. Friede have been ap-
proved by Engineer Commissioner
Gordon r. Young.
The reviSionS, which include
clarification Of authority of the
Fire and Electrical Departments
on supervision of certain minor
installations, will go, with minor
change in wording. to the Board
Of Commissioners for approval.
One of the changes would pro-
hibit the installation inside build
ings of alarm boxes connected di-
rectly into a main circuit of the
municipal system. Instead. the
boxes will be installed outside
buildings.
In this way. difficulties which
have been encountered in getting
into locked buildings when main
circuits have broken down inside
will be removed.
The change would not be retro
active. but Gen. Young said he
felt that boxes now inside build
ings should be taken out "as we
get to it."
