I As tremendously concerned as are all officials connected with the the- aters bearing the Crandall name, of | Which Harry M. Crandall is either en- tire or majority owner—and this in- cludes primarily Mr. Crandall himself, Who is prostrated at his home—there is one aspect of the disaster that they think ought to be brought to the at- tention of the public. l "This is that Mr. Crandall does not build his theaters himself, and hasl no connection with them until he opens, them for business. An archi- tect- draws plans for a contemplated playhouse. Contractors submit bids. The lowest bidder puts.up the build- ing, which then must pass all the When all the tests imposed by law. and private, requirements, public have been met, Mr. Crandall pays the bill, takes over the property and as- sociates it with his name. Up until that time he has had no connection with the edifice. A representative of the Crandall chain, who also is a stockholder in one of the theaters, this afternoon said that the architects who drew plans were, In all cases, directed to see to it that the roofs were capable of sustaining a weight four times as great as that specified by the build- ing regulations, and that this in- struction had been carried out in all cases. . VALUABLES ON BODIES REMOVED AND TAGGED Articles of Clothing and Other ‘Wearables Found in Ruins Held for Claimants. As the bodles were identifled at the First Church of Christ, Scientist, where they had been removed from the Knickerbockey theater, all valua- bles, consisting of rings, money or other articles were removed by one being tagged, were turned over to Inspector Clifford Grant, chief of de- tectives, Who later turned them over to the property clerk of the police department. . Inspector Grant remained at the ¢hurch throughout yesterday and last night collecting the valuables.’ Later the clothing. which had been torn from the victims or lost by those who managed to escape was taken to police headquarters and placed in the squadroom. Eight or ten detectives this morn- ing were busily engiged in searching the pockets of the coats for articles, whifh_were placed in packages and tagged, as were the coats, hats, mufts, gloves or anything else found. These articles later will be turned in to the property clerk for the own- ers or their kin to claim.
