MORE TEETH IN FALSE ALARM LAW IS GOAL Council Spurred to Pass Stricter Penalty by Fireman’s Death. Stricter penalty for persons turning in false alarms is the aim of the city council, which today notified the safety committee to investigate the ordinance pertaining to such a penalty. This was the council's answer Monday night to the Halloween prank through which Lieutenant Lewis L. Stanley was killed and five firemen injured seriously, while answering a false alarm. James A. Houck, Democratic councilman, introduced a motion which prompted the resolution, requesting the safety committee to study the ordinance, with a view to drafting a measure to increase penalties. Tennant Heads Group Maurice E. Tennant heads the committee, which will report at the next council session. Section 401 of the municipal code now provides for imposing a S2OO fine on any person or persons turning in a false fire alarm. The same penalty applies to those who cry out such alarm in public as for those who turn it in thorugh the alarm system. Traffic regulations were included in three of five ordinances passed by the council Monday night. An amendment made Tenth street from Capitol to Indiana avenues, preferential; another established no-parking zones in various parts of the city, and a third established several passenger loading zones. Provides for Transfer Other ordinances passed provided for the transfer of SIOO in the city controller’s office and amended the ordinance rgeulating bonds of several city official:-. Seven of nine ordinances introduced provide for transfer of funds in various departments. The park department, through an ordinance, is asking the council’s sanction for the sale of parts of four lots, one at the southeast corner of Maple road boulevard and Central avenue; one at the northeast corner, and others at Maple road, Ruckle and Illinois street intersections.
