Building Code Discussed Definite steps toward the untangling of the disseusion over the proposcd new building code were taken lase night at a meeting of the city coun- cil and the Chamber of Commerce building code committee in the City hall, when the regulations were dis- cussed and approval and disapproval of the various proposals were made. The meeting last night showed clear- 1y that the code will not become ef- fective for weeks and possibly months yet, because of its many angles, ac- cording to views expressed by coun- ciimen and Chamber of Commerce members, The regulations in regard to fireproofing buildings bore the brunt of battle last night as it was declared that the measures increased | the construction costs to an almost prohibitive extent and that many of the present city buildings will not meet the code requirements. One regulation specifies that any building, devoted to public use shall have cer- tain types of fire escapes and stair- ways, It was declared last night by one member of the Chamber of Com- | merce committee that the New De- parture Lndee Inn, one of the finest factory hotels in the state, will not meet this requirement. The city board and the chamber group did not finish up the discussion work last night so thet another meeting will be held soon to delve further into the code. Police Hearing Tonight Hearlng of the request of the police department for increase in wages will take place tonight at a special meeting of the police board when a commit tee of the department will appear be- fore the commissioners in support of the salary petition.

The recommendation of the board will be presented to the council after the meeting tonight and the city fathers will decide the matter.
