All Citizens of New York Citw: HIS city 19 menaced by the Im- ininent possibility of a gen- eral conflagration, Recent severe cold weather, combined with the shortage of coal, has produced @ condition of gravest menace. Those buildings which, because of sprinkler protection, are usually counted upon to serve as fire bar- ters, are now virtually without such protection To The Chief of the Fire Depart- ment has sounded the warning hat “if to these conditions a rately heavy fall of snow is udded, making it difficult to move heavy fire-fighting apparatus, a {isastrous conflagration would be not only possible but highly probable.” The unprecedented concentré tion of population and values in New York City might easily turn such a conflagration into a dis- aster of the first magnitude As Mayor of the City of Now York I hereby call upon ail ns to co-operate ‘for 1 safety by the following publi nean 1, To have a sufficient number of water barrels and fire buckets or other form of fire extinguishers ready for immediate use in all buildings. 2. To provide adequate emer- gency watchmen service in all buildings until the present crisis is past. 3. To ascertain the location of the nearest fire alarm boxes and to study the directions for send ing in alarms. 4. To observe especial care with matches, lights, heaters and all other forms of fire hazard 5. To have all waste paper, packing material and other com- bustible rubbish put in metal containers and removed from building daily and to keep base- ments and cellars perfectly clean. JOHN F.
