New Fire Ordinance
Introduced In Council
Gives Chief Much Power
In line with the new regulations of
the state law for the prevention of fire,
there wns introduced in the city coun
cil 'at its regular meeting last, night an
ordinance thnt will make City Fire
Chief 1 1 lit ton an Assistunt State Fire
Marshal, with power to require the
owners of buildings to observe the reg
ulations for fire prevention ns provided
by the city ordinances and by the state
fire marshal law.
The fire chief by virtue of his office
is a deputy ire warden, and the ordi
nance now introduced and passed to its
second reading is in compliance with
tho new law which was passed at the
recent legislature. The aim of the
state law is to reuuire the cleaning up
of rubbish, and to remove combustible
materials from places where they may
cause fire. The duty of seeing that
this work is done is.uti to the local
fire marshal, who works under the
direction of the state fire marshal and
two deputies.
The ordinance was referred to the
committee on fire and water and it is
probable thnt it will pass. The new
state law goes into effect on May 21.
and tho city ordinance is required to
give the fire chief -the power of fire
marshal within the corporate limits of
the city. Where there is no organized
fire department, police officers are
iven the authority of a fire marchai.
Fire Chief Hutton, when tho ordi
nance becomes effective, will have
power to order dangerous fire traps
cleaned up and made to comply with
the regulations for tho prevention of
fire.
