Fire Statistics

Charles r. Scott, State Fire
Marshal points out that 249 per-
sons in Ohio lost their lives as a
result of fire in 1853. Fifty-eight
of these fatalities were children
under 5 years, 25 were children
from 5 to IA years, II were per-
sons from Is to "a, "a were
adults from Is to Al 81 were
persons from 45 to "a, and 63
were persons over 65 years of
age. The greatest fatality toll
was the age groups of the very
young and the very old; peosons
that could not help themselves;
people who depend upon others
f or their safety and well being.
The people responsible for them,
let them down by not taking G
proper precautions against the
occurrence of fire, or by not hav-
ing plan of evacuation in the
event of a fire, which allowed
them to be trapped and die as a
result of fire.
Mr.. Scott stated that 3 out of
4 fires are caused by matches
and careless smoking habits: One
in ten fires of known causes is
of electrical origin. One out of
every five fires is caused by faul-
ty chimneys, flues, stoves, furn-
aces, carelessness with fireplaces
hot ashes, or sparks on roofs.
One in ten fires is caused by inn
proper use of kerosene, gasoline,
or other flammable fluids. TO
guard against these causes, he
suggests that you m ak ke a fire

COUNCILMAN SCHADE EXPLAINS VARIOUS
FEATURES OF new ORGANIC ACT

EEAIUkB Ut new uk
A large audience gathered
in the Frederiksted Park area
last night and listened atten-
lively to members Of the local
Municipal Council and Atty.
Irwin Silverman explain fea-
lures of the Revised Organic
Act, which has caused such
an uproar on the mainland, in
st. Thomas and here.
The Hon. Axel Schade, First
Member for Frederiksted
Town, acted as master of cere-
monies and was also one of
the principal speakers. After
giving an outline of the sub
ject to be discussed, he intro
duced the Hon. Ann Abram-
son, Second Member, who
spoke briefly.
Mr.. Schade then explained
that he had made a careful
study Of the draft that is caus-
ing SO much controversy; in
addition to the fact that he
has asked the opinion of a
number Of outstanding citi-
zens, calling several names,
all are agreed that the new
Act is certainly an improve
ment over the old one and
that if the new act would en-
slave us then 1--WE are enslav-
ed now by the old act.
Mr.. Schade then read each
controversial section and ex-
planned them, as best he knew
how. Regardless of the feel
ings of anyone about the act,
it was the consensus of opin-
ion that Mr. Schade did an ex-
cellent job; gave a clearer pic
ture than had been given
before by any member Of the
local council, and without fan
fare Or embellishments.
The next speaker was Atty.

Irwin Silverman, former Chief
Council for the Department of
Interior, who, with former
Congressman Crawford, were
retained to fight for passage
of the Legislatures version Of
the act. He confirmed all the
statements made by Mr..
Schade and also mentioned
the excellent work done by
Councilman Walter Hodge in
Washington.
Mr.. Silverman deplored the
protests that have been raised
in st. Thomas. He compared
the act with those given to
other territories. He also ex-
planned that in legislation of
that type we will never get
all we want but must take an
attitude of give and take.
The Hon. Walter Hodge was
the next speaker. Because he
had spoken previously in
Christiansted, listeners under
stood the part he played in
the organic act discussions.
He treasured his hearers that
he worked hard and with sin
certify to bring about passage
of the present act because it
was the best we could get and
the fact that the internal re-
venues will mean SO much to
the economical progress of
the islands, including the pos
sibility Of better roads, hospi-
tails, schools and other ser
vices.
The audience, as was the
case in Christiansted, remain
attentive throughout the lee
ture. Each person seemed to
have given thought to what
was being said. There was no
demonstration or useless APP
plause; whenever given it was
merited.

Whether he will attempt to
raise difficulties in the way of
the negotiations at this stage
has not been made clear.
The French long have re-
garded the 18th as the best di-
viding line, principally because
of its defensive aspects. The
Dong Hoi- Thakkek line would
run along a range Of abrupt
limestone mountains to within
few miles Of the coast. This,
combined with the fact that it is
almost the narrowest portion Of
Wet Nam, gives it natural
advantages over the Tourane
demarcation boundary, which
would be almost impossible to
police or defend.
Air-NavaI Base at Tourane.
In any event, the French are
almost sure to insist on a line
which keeps both Tourane, site
of big air-naval base, and Hue,
ancient capital Of AMMAN and
birthplace Of Ex- Emperor Bao
Dali. now the Wet Nam Chief Of
State, within it's orbit. The old
Annamite kingdom provides the
cultural and linguistic core Of
the Wet Nam state.
Tourane's air base in Wet
Mimi hands would give the Com
munists a springboard from
which Hong Kong, Singapore,
Manila and Saigon could be
menaced.
Hue, a city of 10000, was built
in the third century before

Capt. Kurt Carlson Flies
To See Stricken Mother
By the Associated Press

STOCKTON, Calf, July IT,
Capt. Kurt Carlson. 40, who two
years ago became known the
world around as the heroic
master of the Isbrandtsen
freighter, Flying Enterprise, left
by plane last night for Denmark
to visit his mother, reported to
be seriously i'll.
Capt. Carlson remained aboard
the freighter, sinking in the At
lantic, until passengers and crew
had been removed and until all
hope vanished of towing the YES
sci to shore.
On his first visit to Stockton,
Capt. Carlson was here as skip
per of the Flying Enterprise II,
picking up cargo for Puerto Rico.
He turned command of the ship
over to Capt. John Handy of
San Francisco, master of the
Flying Foam. another Isbrandt-
sen vessel.
