Top Any Record > In Country‘s History Fires in 1946 caused more loss of life and greater property damâ€" age than in any previous year in this country‘s history, Chief Henâ€" nig pointed out today in urging increased fire protection vigilance during 1947. Such tragic facts should stir evâ€" ery business man and housewife in the community to make his No. 1 New Year‘s resolution "Be Preâ€" pared for Fire,"â€"Mr.â€"Hennig deâ€" clared. â€" He emphasized the neâ€" cessity of frequent inspection of homes, stores and factories, not only to eliminate all possible causes of fire but to make sure that an adequate supply of approved fire extinguishers are located at straâ€" tegic points. P a d t e at the outset is the key to preâ€" venting such tragic conflagrations as the recent Atlanta hotel fire. The formula is simple, the chief concluded. â€" First, call the fire deâ€" partment; second, intelligently use first aid fire equipment; third, keep;people out of the fire endanâ€" â€" Most fires are small at the start, he said. Quick, intelligent action For Draftsmen An open competitive examinaâ€" tion has been announced for the positions of draftsmen by the Corps of Engineers, Options inâ€" cluded are as follows: Aeronautiâ€" cal, architectural, civil, electrical, map, mechanical, ship, statistical, structural, and general, Draftsâ€" men receive from $1765 to $3397 a year depending upon the amount of experience acquired and reâ€" sponsibility assumed. y Employ;nem will be in various federal agencies in the states of Tllinois, Michigan md Wileonmn _*Full information and application forms may be obtained from any firstâ€" or secondâ€"class post office.

Chances are, the OTC pointed out yesterday, that the tenants simply didn‘t pay their rent. And to clarify the OTC rent control office‘s position in such matters, the agency listed seven ~legal grounds onâ€" which landlords may obtain evictions, as follows: 1. If you refuse to renew your lease on the same terms and conâ€" ditions, provided none of the proâ€" visions is contrary to rent regulaâ€" tions. p 2. If you unreasonably refuse to let your landlord inspect the premâ€" ises and show them to prospective purchasers, > .20 3 0. 0. â€" 4. ~ If you are committing a nuisance of using the dwelling for immoral ar illeeal purposes. & 8. If you violate a substantial obligation of your rental agreeâ€" ment. _ (However, your landlord must first give you written notice to cease the violation.) 5. If the landlord owned the property before rent control and has "an immediate and compelling necessity" to occupy the dwelling himself or is a veteran of World WAR IL 6. If you fail to pay the legal rent, 7. . If your lease has expired and you are now subletting rather than occupying the dwelling yourself. ‘These grounds, the government agency pointed out, should answer the question. â€" "Where was the OTC on that one?" _ Which readers frequently ask after seeâ€" ing pictures of an eviction. The OTC added that the numâ€" ber of evictions for nonpayment of rent has "greatlv increased in the last few weeks."
