Death by Burning Toll 49 in Year Highest Figure; in History of State Fire Chier 20 Year Records Forty-nine persons were burned to death in Oregon last year, the highest annual toll in the 20-year history of the state fire marshal department, Hugh H. Earle, fire marshal, reported yesterday. "This deplorable experience comes as a surprise, because, un like some years, such . as 1936 when 13 persons lost their lives in the Bandon conflagration, no one fire has contributed to a great number of deaths," Earle wrote in his annual report to Governor Martin. The actual fire loss during the year was $3,270,297, the high est since 1932 but 22.9 per cent less than the average' for the pre ceding 10 years. Insurance pay ments in the losses totaled $2, 573.025. The largest fire during the year was the burning of a lumber com pany at Glendale August 20 with an insured , loss of $299,907. , DOORS ' OPEN 1 P. M: DAILY THE MOST TALKED OF PICTCRK is .
