Ladies desire that irre? o,fv;Kl harm a good In the effort to get m more direct touch with and to secure the cfose co operation of city and town officials throughout the State, Insurance Com missioner Young has sent the follow ing letter to those officials: "Gentlemen: The Insurance De partment desires to help you in your work for the upbuilding of yolr city and the Drotection 'of its citizens and their property. Let's have a heart to heart talk on some matters. Building Permits. "Our laws require that before a building (in or out of the fire -.district) is commenced a permit must be ob tained from your building inspector, and that it must be erected in compli ance 'with j:he requirements of the law. This is a most important law, if you wish to avoid fires in your city. Is it complied with? If not, your lniildine insnector is subject to in dictment. You can appoint a build ing inspector or the chief of the fire department becomes ex-Dfficio such officer. Inspection of Buildings. "Does vour inspector go over the fire district every building once each quarter and inspect every build ing in city at least once a year: ihe law requires this. Nothing will do more to protect your citizens and their property than this inspection, no money spent will pay better than sal ary paid a good .man as city building inspector. Try it. We will help you. Elecfrical Inspections. "Electricity furnishes power and the best light. It is the safest light, when properly installed ; but when not, nothing furnishes a greater menace. How are your electrical contractors? no thev understand the business? II not, they should not be allowed to endanger the lives and property oi vour citizens. If they understand ao ine the work there is no excuse for Door work, and such as is gangeroiis and .against the law. What is your electrical inspector doing in making inspections and requiring compliance with the law? Danqerous Conditions. "In manv places I find the local in spectors are worried because while places are cleaned up on notice, " no further attention is paid to them, ana in a few days the conditions are just oa lrt ThP rpmerlv is plain. It 19 LA. O UUU " V i just as much against the law to al low your premises to become danger ous because of trash, etc., as it is not to clean up on notice. In inspecting and giving notice to clean up, also no tify the parties wlio are accustomed to pay no attention to the condition of their premises, except on notice, that the next time their premises are found in bad condition a warrant win be taken out. This will do the work and insure a. clean, safe town. Fire Departments. "This is one of the most necessary dpnartments of vour city government. What is Its condition? What atten tion are you giving to its equipment and organization? How is the appa ratus? What is the condition of the hose? No time to make preparations -or sret readv after the fire bell rings Do you take care of your firemen : Do thev practice regularly? Do they inspect to clean out conditions likely to cause or feed a fire and to know how to get at and fight , a fire? I would like to help you and your fire department. I will send an expert to examine your apparatus and drill vour men. The cost to you will be nominal nothing where he simply visits, and cost of board where he spends several days. Inspectors. "Under the present law it is no longer of the duty of the mayor and Knard of aldermen to pass on inai ,vidual cases of permits for building. They are relieved oi una wuu; , it ia still their duty to select and com pensate good men for inspectors and see that they do theirduty. It is for this reason, I appeal to you. Have you good inspectors? Are they doing their duty? Are their salaries such as to call for and demand the , best Conclusion.
