These measures included, emongst others, the passing by the Ontario legislature in 1914 of the Fire Marshal Act, under which the Fire Marshal Office was organized in 1916 and the formation in 1918 of the Ontario Fire Prevention League in effiliation with the Ontario Fire Marshal's Office, In speaking at the second annual meeting of the Lea- Sue last year, the Provincial Fire Marshal pointed out that while the Investigation of fires had been the supreme purpose of the Fire Marshal Act when pessed in 1914, investiga tion, not only here, but in other countries, had revealed that the vast Ar a a, and, ia co-operation with other bod- les, to daculoate tn the minds of the people that it is a necessity and a common duty to do everything pos- sible to minimize the great losses from fire. Notwithstanding these efforts, the fire losses in this prov- ince continue to be extremely heavy, as is shown by the following figures: Fire Waste in Ontario Exclusive of Forest Fires, No. Fires 10,279 9,681 9,588 9,936 Year 1916 1017 1918 1919 Losses $16,520,208 10,365,539 14,856,329 10,514,232 1920 9,296 11,771,718 *1920 7,415 10,831,946 *9 months to Sept 30:h. The present rate of fire loss in On- tario means a tax of from $5 to $6 per capita for every man, woman, and child in the province, or approxi- mately $30 per year for a family of five. It means that the fire waste of Ontario exceeds $30,000 every day.

These figures in the aggregate represent the direct fire cost to the dominton and show that, during a halt century, the rav- ages of fire have taxed the people of Canada to the extend of nearly $700,000,000, The Commission of Conservation is also authority for the etatement that during the four years from 1912 to 1915 the average fire loss in Canada was $21,250,000 Per annum. In 1916 the Goss wae $25,400,000, while the averages for the past three years Was approxi- mately $27,000,000 per annum, It has been conclusively shown by the experience of England and other European countries that proper mea- ing and mates of the cost.

M.
