I Business Districts Termed Fire Traps Business Houses In Indiana Scored Indianapolis, May 12 (UP)— As much an 75 percent ot the business district of any Indiana city, consists of fire traps. Marshall Potts, chief Inspector of the state fire marshal department said today. Hut he told the Vnlted Press that liullditiKS were not being ordered razed because "to do so would mean that half the business bit I tilings in the state ot Indiana would have to be leveled" Potts, who from his statehouse office keeps tab on a field forceot investigators, said most build Ings in downtown business districts In the state were inspected every two weeks. "I would like to shatter a very common illusion.” Potts said "There is no such thing us fire proofing. Our department does not recognize any building as being fireproof." He said the fire marshal's office considered buildings only in terms of fire resistance. At Its very best, the most modern fire resistant structure can withstand fire only a maximum of four hours, he said. Potts said that to be realistic, the best (hat can be done is to keep the fire traps under constant surveillance and to see that their owners ami occupants practice fire prevention. "New buildings, of course," Potts said, ‘must pass the state fire code adopted in 1945. The old ones are those we are wary of. But there Is nothing to be alarmed about." Generally speaking, the Inspector said. Hoosier owners ot public buildings were cooperative with his staff. “They don’t want fires any more than we do." he said. He described most business districts iti the state as consist Ing of buildings to to 75 years old. "When they were built." he said, “they probably were all right by the standards and the knowledge of that day But sad to say. experience in many a ttagedy lias taught us differently. As an example. Potts pointed, out that the ornate and beautiful hotel staircases of yesteryear tie day provide the air drafts that turn small fires into big ones. Potts could not say that the fire hazard situation was any worse in one city or another. But in talking about the outmoded downtown fire traps he referred to the business districts of Fort Wayne, South Bend. Ev-

The fire Inspector chief reassured that schools and theaters In the state were "in good shape" He said his staff was mostly concerned with ■ pubMc bulldlngs and that private homes were checked only upon request. Potts was asked what he con sldered the most costly fire of recent years In the state. "When you speak of costly." he said. "I cau think only In terms ot Ilves lost.
