START FURNACE FIRE FROM TOP, EXPERTS ADVISE

You'll Save Coal and Reduce Smoke, Abatement Committee Adds.

t The proper method of startiag a

fire in your furnace is exactly re-|

verse of the method now used by at least 90 per cent of the City's furnace firers, a special smoke abate-

ment committee decided today. «The committee which is working

out a smoke abatement program in gE

conjunction with the Safety Board ‘approves the system of building the

“fire on top of the coal instead of

underneath it.

Six Rules Listed " Here are six simple rules adopted |&

by the committee in a meeting yes- |E terday which if observed will revolu- |

tionize furnace firing in Indian-|

apolis according to J. W. Clinehens, | =

a tv combustion engineer: 1. Leave a six-inch layer of ash| on the grate. 2. Place coal in the fire pot sop: | ing upward from front to rear. 3. Open wide the slide in the fire door.

4. Arrange dampers to get a good E

draft. | i 5. Pile paper and kindling on top of coal and light paper after everything is prepared.

_ 6. Admit necessary air through =

ashpit door.

* The reason for this method, Mr.

Glinehens said.

is that it provides

enough air to insure proper com- |S

bustion, thus reducing smoke and

increasing heat. With a fire on top |E of the coal pile, he said, enough|S heat is generated to consume all |E

gases from the heated coal.

Gases Not Consumed IE

By the old method of building a = fire underneath the coal, he said, E

gases pass up through cool layers E

of coal and are not consumed.

causing a great deal of smoke iil loss of heat. » Mr. Clinehens said that the su-

periority of this method could be demonstrated by turning a candle

upside down and watching it smoke. | The six rules will be distributed to the public in a pamphlet by the] Fue Department beginning epartment beginning April 16.)

WORKS BOARD ORDERS NEWSSTAND SURVEY|

The Works Board today ordered £

Chief Morrissey to survey all down- 5 town newsstands to determine if §

they are safety hazards. The request was made after the

Chief said that a stand at the E northeast corner of Market and E Illinois Sts. was a definite “safety §

hazard.” He said the stand

should be E

moved back 25 feet from the curb E intersection to allow persons free E access to the sidewalk while cross- | E

ing the street in either direction.

Meanwhile, the Board studied a ¢ petition: of a North Side civic or- | &

ganization to grade Sheldon and

Hovey Sts. between 46th and 52d E Sts. Signed by 50 persons, it was E

presented by a delegation headed by Paul Webster, 4936 Hovey St.

The board received another peti- | :
