the Hancock-owned centers.
Now, we don t put too

the 200 dwelling fires, not ona
person escaped alive.
The NFPA reported recent
ly that there was about 11,800
persons killed in fires in the
United States last year. The
report today was an elabora
tion of the earlier statistics.
Little Escape Time
In more than half the dwell
ing fires analyzedj the time
available for a safe escape af
ter the fire was discovered
was just less than two min
utes. Only occasionally did
fire departments have suffic
ient time to save lives.
The main cause of the
dwelling fires analyzed were
defective heating and cooking
equipment, misuse ot flamma
ble liquids, careless smoking
and children playing with
matches.
More than 40 per cent of
the fires started in the living
room. The kitchen and the
bedroom were each the point
of origin for about 20 per
cent of the fires, the report
said.
