JAILS FOUND TO
BE BUILT SAFER
THAN SCHOOLS
CHICAGO, Aug. 9. IJuilding
codes In the United States provide
more protection tor jailbirds than
they do for school children and
the sick in hospitals. A, survey re
cently completed by Norman M.
$iiueniaii, structural engineer tor
the Portland Come ut association,
shows that only two out of the
codes o more than 30 cities and
states provide for fireproof con
struction of school buildings while
ten specify fire safety in Jails and
theatres.
Four cities Atlanta, Ga., Cincin
nati, O., Syracuse, N. Y., and Ta
coma, Wash. stipulate fireproof
construction .of all hospitals. The
building code of Ohio specifies
fireproof construction tor all hos
pitals within the state.
Boston, Mass., and Utlca, N. Y.,
are the two cities that require all
schools to be fireproof. Outside of
schools ' I3ostou demands that all
buildings over 75 feet in height be
made safo from the fire menace.
Utica'a building laws provide frf
all buildings iz feet in height, witn
the exception of grain elevators
and manufacturing plants, to be
fireproof.
"Kight cities and two states
make provision for the safety of
their prisoners, but neglect to pro
vide for the school children," says
Mr. Stineman. Atlanta, Ga., Cincin
nati, Ohio, Minneapolis, Minn., Mil
waukee, Wis,, IJarkersbuvg, W. Va.,:
Syracuso, N. Y., Tacoma, Wash.,
Waukegan, III., and the states of
Ohio and Wisconsin build fire
proof concrete jails to care for
their prisoners.
Cities that stipulate flrosafe the
atres -are: Atlanta, Georgia, Bos
ton, Massachusetts, Cincinnati,
Ohio, .Duluth, Minn., Los Angeles,
California, Minneapolis, Mian.,
Portland, Ore,, Rockford, III., Syra
cuso, N. Y., and Washington, I). C.
None of these municipalities, with
the exception of Boston, provide
that all schools shall be made of
fireproof materials such as rein-'
forced concrete.
"Most building codes are anti
quated," says Mr. Stineman. "They
were passed before additional fire
hazards were incurred. The law
makers know films and theatre
decorations wore inflammable and
thought that jailbirds should be
made safe for the law. Today do
mestic scienco and cooking In
schools, together with manual
training and the showing of movies
?iiake fireproof construction of
schools essential."
FLY-TOX
Your Doctor Will Confirm This,
The fly's mouth' and tongue are

A fly may infect anything it

of infection.
But with Fly-Tox a house can be

ONE LIFE THOUGHT
LOST IN RAINIER
FOREST BLAZE
. TACOMA, Aug. 9. The battle
miat in raging in the Haiuier Na
tional Foreat to ex'ingui.th fires
may have claimed the life ot one
man.
Clyde E?ston of Eatonvlllo, tlio
man for whose safety fear Is ex
pressed, and Frank Greer, both of
the Carbon Kiver ranger station,
started out yesterday after a tele
phone conversation to meet at a
new fire that had been reported
by lookouts and patrolmen.
Greer went to tho point at whl. il
tho fire was reported but could
not. find the fire. It is believed
that tho fire burned rnpidty, cans
ing a great deal of smoke, then
burned itself out. Searchers could
not find Eaton.
Returning to tho ranger station,
Greer spread the report that Katun
had not turned up and others
fighting the many fires in the for
est took up the search.
The missing man did not return
yesterday and an organized search
ing party was sent out. An all day
hunt failed to find Katon and the
search was being continued today.

Fine Record Shown by Tab
ulation Made by County
School Superinten
dent for 1926-27.
The annual report for the schools
of Douglas county has been com
pleted by Edith M. Ackert, county
school superintendent, showing in
detail the activities during the past
year. The records show that dur
ing last year there were 4,601
pupils regularly enrolled through
out the entire BChool year, out of a
school census Of 6,768. The school
census includes all children ' be
tween the ages of 4 and 20 years.
The attendance report shows a
percentage of 95.9, which Is con
sidered excellent in view ot the
large amount of sickness and quar
antine during the year. The per
centage recod was only 1.3 per
cent lower than the previous year
when there was not the great
amount of sickness to contend
with. '
The county employed 49 men In
structors at an average monthly
salary of $159.61 and 22S women at
an average monthly salary of
$111.50.
' There were 133 boys and 161
girls graduated from the 8th grade
and 88 boys and 100 girls from the
standard high schools of the coun
ty. The average cost of educating
grade school pupils for the year
was 122.76 each and for the high
schpol students $211.21 each. Sixty-
one districts held a nine-months
term, a great increase over pre
vious years. The number .of 9-
month schools has shown a paral
lel increase with the construction
of good roads as improved thor
oughfares make It possible for
children in rural districts to get to
school more easily and make a
longer term possible.
Sixteen teachers now bold life
diplomas, the report shows. There
are ten 2-rooni schools in opera
tion. Library books on hand for
the the County totaled 28,281
volumes. Several new playsheds
were built during theschool year.
Two consolidations were . accom
plished at Camas Valley and Scott's
Valley, affecting six schools. Over
300 pupils enrolled In Boys and
Girls Project Clubs. Recognition
was won by 210 pupils for porfect
attendance each receiving tho per
fect attendance diploma.

BY AIR CONTROL
WASHINGTON, Aug. 0. One of
the worst horrors o the American
navy gun turret explosions
which formerly took Us toll in hun
dreds of lives, hus been conquered
by air conditioning engineers em
ployed by Uncle Sam, . And like
many of the discoveries of scieuce
and invention, the solution was
simple and practical, officers in
the navy, department said. Air pres
sure is controlled and reversed
mechanically.
The turret accidents usually
took place during firing practice,
when not -only accuracy but fre
quency of fire counted. During
high speed pratice, kegs of powder
and dynamite were brought up in
to the turret for ammunition.
When the breech of the big gun
was opened after a shot, air pres
sure ou the outside, whipped into
action by sea breezes, entered the
muzzle of the gun and forced not
only the powder smoke but often
sparks back through the breech in
to the turret. When these sparks
connected with 200 to 300 pounds
of powder and dynamite, there
was trouble.
Naval engineers struggled with
tins problem for years until some
one suggested that if a stronger
pressure of air was created within
the turret, sparks and smoke
would be forced out through the'
muzzle. To create this artificial
pressure of air from within the
turret, special ventilating fans
wore installed. In the average tur
ret, these were Bet to pump about
5,000 cubic feet or 385 pounds of
air per minute. This method suc
ceeded in instantly driving fumes
out of the turret through the muz
cfle of the gun, eliminated all dang
er of explosions and constantly
keep the turret air fit for action.
There have been none of these ex
plosions since.
Electrical control of air for
safety is being nsed ta an extent
never ' before attempted in the
new mammoth airplane carriers,
the "Lexington" and "Saratoga"
recently launched by Uncle Sam.
Each one of these ships is 888 feet
long, lutf feet wide and can carry
75 large airplanes. Each has some
fighting strength, high speed and

The cabins and hulls of theso
ships are conditioner) constantly

a relative hnmidlty of 45 to 50 per

devoted to ventilation alone is in
dicated by the fact that 370 ven
tilating fans of various types and
sizes, each ranging up lo a capa
city of 40,000 cubic feet or 3,077
pounds per minute, are used in
each ship while 61 forced draft
blowers are lined to supply 16 boil

in fuel combustion Is shown by
the fact that flfty.tona ot air are

nine fans which pump the air
