' elun ministers' conference- went
into it seventh duy, declared
today tliuro win good reason to
' bollovo agroomunts would bo
reached on ionic of ttio critical
world problem under discus
sion. AlthoiiKh tliore wus no Indica
tion whlcli of the numerous Is
sues these quarters referred to,
this was tliu most hopeful pre
diction yet to come from sources
vloso to purllcipunts In tlio talks.
In this connection, it was re
called that when the conferencs
opened lust Sunday U. S. Secre
tary of Slate Jumutt F. Byrnes
suld ho would not bo surprised
if no agreements wore arrived
t. British Foreign Secretury
Krncst Bevin has taken a simi
lar conservative vlow.
Outcome
Both Byrnes and Bevin still
were suld to bo anxious not to
rulso expectations of their peo
ple too high In regard to doll
nito rosults from the discussions,
but It was suld thuro was u grow
ing fooling thnt tlio . outcome
may be better than , originally
anticipated.
It Is obvious, these sources
' said, that every difference be
tween Soviet Itusslu, Great Brit
ain and the United Stutvs will
. not bo settled at this meeting,
but they suld much progress
hud been mudo toward dispelling
suspicions on all sides.
The talks anncarcd to huve
veered moro In the direction of
Informality. Yesterduy's four
hour and 19 minute meeting, the
longest yet held, was very in
formal with only Byrnes, Bevin,
Soviet Foreign Commissar V. M
Molotov and their translators
present.
Batteries of Experts
Previous meetings had been
attended by butteries of experts
on such subjects as the atomic
bomb. Jui)un and Iran.
Although Informed quarters
said a "positive stage had been
reached in the talks, there still
was no Indication how much
longer they would last. Amer
ican circles said uyrncs sun
hoped to leave Moscow b,
Christmas, but observers said I
was unlikely that the business
could be concluded by then.
; When Byrnes left the United
States ho hod hoped to return
home bofore going to London to

They were among thousands
of holiday seekers who
thronged the station yester
day, trying to get a seat or

Fire Chief
Warns Against
Holiday Fires
"Many families that will be
reunited this Christmas for the
first time in many winters may
be separated again by fire, un
less people are more careful
than they have been other
years," Fire Chief Keith Am
brose warned today.
"To begin with, the Christ
mas tree burns very easily
when it is dry. So set it up
awav from heat, onen flames.
or electric sockets. And put the
tree where it won't block exits.
"Another thing to be careful
about," continued the chief, "is
the decorations used on the tree
and walls. These days people
can buy safe decorations, such
as glass balls lor the tree, metal
tinsel, and flame - proofed
wreaths."
The chief was particularly
emphatic about open flames.
"Candles and unprotected fire
places may look pretty to some
people," he said, "but I call
them dangerous at any time,
and particularly at Christmas.
Protect the fireplace with a
screen, and don't use candles
at all.
Car Urgtd . ,
"Electrical decorations are
safe if they are in good condi
tion and. carry the approval
label of Underwriters' Labora
tories and if care is taken not
to overload the circuit," he con
tinued. "Christmas wrappings
left lying around are as danger
ous as they are colorful so pick
them up as soon as the pack
ages are opened.
' "Be a ' careful ' smoker, and
provide plenty of ash trays for
your guests. And then just be
cause accidents can happen in
spite of everything we do, keep
your fire extinguisher handy,
where it win not be cut on by
a fire in the tree or decorations,
and check to see that it Is In
good working order. And be
sure everyone in the house
knows how to call tho fire department."
The chief concluded with a
warning to those who plan to
celebrate in a night club or
other public place. "Be careful
in picking your 'night spot.' Re
member the fire in the Cocoa-
nut Grove, where more than
400 people died In a few min
utes because the exists could
not be reached. Look around
for the nearest exit when you
are seated. And remember that,
in a fire, panic is your worst
enemy."
