Fireproof Mesh for Plaster and], ‘ Firé-Stopped Partitions Among Recommendations POINTS TO'GRAVE DANGERS|- : Continuous Flue Tile in Chim- neys and Installation by Li- censed Men Is important New York City, Oct. 19.—Sugges- tions for making a new house as fire- resistant as possible were outlined here by P. A, Andrews, vice president of’Johns-Manville in charge of build- ing materials, “People who plan to build should insist on good fire-safe construction and should take advantage of as many of the modern fireproof ‘and fire- Tesistant’ ‘building materials as ‘pos- sible,” said Andrews. “This is especi- ally important now because of the great activity in home building’ which has been brought about by increased incomes, a decided housing shortage, and improved financing, such as the Federal’ Housing Administration In- sured Mortgage Systeni.” ~ Andrews’ suggestions for eliminat- ing fire hazards in new construction are: Resistant Exterior 1, Exterior covering of the house, both roof and sidewalls, should be fire-resistant, e sidewalls may be of brick, stuccd or’ newly developed asbestos siding shingles. The roof should be built of some similar fire- proof material. Exposure to the heat and flame’ of next-door fires is the greatest known cause of fire in this country, accounting for losses of more than $26,000,000 arinually. 2. Interior plaster should be ap- Plied to-a fireproof material such as a steel wire mesh, which helps to pro- vide a fire-resistant barrier on the inside walls of the house. 3. Walls and partitions should be firestopped to prevent fires from running up the hollow wall spaces and between floors. If home insulation 1s planned, it’ is best.to use some type which will completely fill the walls and blanket the inside of the roof with fireproof material. Rock-wool home insulation, which is approved by New York City for fire retarding the walls of old-law tenements, is very effective. Continuous Flue Tile 4. Masonry chimneys should be yell built and lined with continuous fue tile. Most architects: réquire at east two inches between the masonry wt the chimney and timber framing members (joists and beams), This space should like-wise be firestopped. 5. Stair supports should be fire- stopped at bottom and top. 6. All electric wiring and gas plumbing should be done by licensed artisans, 7.

J., Oct. 19.—The eld the National Housing Act has given small communities was .told.in a re- cent interview here with Frank W. Sutton, Jr., president of the First Na- tional Bank of Toms River. Because the sparse population of this area represented a mortgage market of relatively small volume, no large company was interested and residential construction was retarded, Sutton said. With the passage of the National Housing Act and the eatab- shment of the. tion Credit Plan-and Insured Mortgage System of the Federal Housing Administration new life was’ given the building in- dustry, and owners and prospective owners-were given|a-new lease on life. During 1935 mote than 250 homes were built in this district, and more than 500 houses were repaired, re- painted, or reequipped with modern appliances, . Sutton said that his bank has done more than $210,009 worth of modernization business and has granted $348,700 worth of. mortgage portion over the’ heating plant or loans. boiler, with a fire-resistant material.

He outlined the Insured Mortgage System, saying that in the enactment of the National Housing Act the gov- ernment was recognizing the import- ance of real estate to the community. He continued: Sp ord ee) some banks try to pretend they didnot need the Federal Hous- ing ny ena esta and they have tet ups ig term. mort- oe ee f their own, but be that as it there can be no question that ‘the f¢ federal Housing Administra- tion is eapaggroccl for the long-term reduction-plan mortgage in America, and its pooetiotst effects are pains felt everywhere. “The Federal Housing administra- tion ‘has laid-down a principle of Amerjcani home finance that ‘will have far-reaching benefits "to econ- omic stability in this country for fu- ture generations not yet born.

The grand plan of operations, however, still is as it was foreshadowed at con- vention time.
