"I would recommend that the following be added for the fire district: That no smoke pipes shall pass through the ceiling or roof of any building within the fire district of Ogden City." Ogden was not built in a day and it will be impossible to have all of the defects remedied in a single day. It takes considerable work and legislation to cope with these conditions. Also the cooperation of the general public. Of course, the work of the chief and the inspector should be backed by the city commission, and when arrests are made for violations we will expect backing from the prosecuting officer if conditions are not corrected after sufficient notice and time has been given for correcting the nights sleeping in - th these wooden shacks, fences, boxes, rubbish, etc., forming im!!.-LiUct,o- RJ to the firemen, it is n t fight the fires the way hould be fought; sometimes it remove the arrival of the that water can be played of the fire.

Chapter ' Section 838, Ogden Citr Ordi mances, reads as follows: tion iV viola-(Thesp- sorv-tntio- 1 hazards. At the request of the fire chief, Mr. Dyer was sent to Ogden to assist in correcting hazards. Mr. Dyer was asked to assist in checking up on those people who refused to comply with the requests of the local fire inspector. At this time I would like to call your attention to the editorial which appeared in a local paper. The editorial states that the insurance rates were threatened .with an advance. His idea is that the rates will be raised on all property. This is a mistaken idea. Mention was made of insurance rate increases, but this referred to the property owner who, after sufficient notice was given him, deliberately allowed fire hazards to sxist. A property owner who allowed this should naturally be penalized, because he is not only endangering his own pr jperty, but the lives and property of others. We are troubled in Ogden with wooden shingles; many of these roofs still cover buildings in the fire district. This type of roof has caused most of our conflagrations in America; and when one, of these fires start, it i almost impossible to put it out unless it burns out or the direction of the wind changes.
