Building To Burn The first five minutes of a fire are more important than the next five hours. T. Alfred Fleming, of the National Board of Fire Underwriters, quotes a number of instances of fires which became uncontrolled within an incredibly short time after then- discovery. For example, a clothing factory in an East- ern city took fire at 2 :30. By 2 :35 the building was such an inferno that firemen could not endure the radiated heat across the street and 35 factory employees had already been cremated. The main remedy for this condition is safer construc- tion. It is much cheaper to fight a five at the architectural drawing board than at the hydrant. But safer construction cannot be achieved until building codes in towns, large and small, are revised and modernized. Not long ago a review was made of the building codes in 281 municipalities con- taining 81 per cent of the population of a State.
