FIRETRAP ORDINANCE
IS TO BE DEFEATED
Supervisors Have Turned
On Their Colleague,
Sam Davis
BROKE HIS PLEDGE
Violater of Law Will Be
Punished for Vote
on Gas Rate
Hven lUb colleague* om tfce Board
«f Supervisor* h«T« turned o» Sam
Davf*. The minority hnm planned to
punish him for his violation of a
pledge to vote for a 75-eent c«" rate,
and bia attempt to have bU deathtrap
theater legalised by ordinance Is to be
defeated.
From present indications the pro
posed ordinance designed to protect
rr.e-etory firetrap theaters of the Davis
type will fall of final passage when
'.t comes up for consideration by th«
Board of Supervisors at the meeting
tomorrow. It is stated that the minor
ity in the board, which stood out for
a 75-cent gas rate, is planning to pun
ish Supervisor Davis, one of the pro
prietors of the dangerous McAUister
street 6how house, because he went
hack on his word and voted for the
f6-cent rate.
The seven Supervisors who have a
rod in pickle for Davis and plan to
defeat the ordinance are Borton,
Coffey, Furey, HarTigran, Kelly, Loner
gan and MoGushin. They will require
only one more vote to prevent the final
passage of the ordinance, and this one
vote, and probably more, will be forth
coming.
The proposed ordinance, which has
« '.ready been passed to print, would
render Immune several one-story
theaters of Inflammable construction
from the provisions of the gener&l or
dinance regulating the fireproof con
struction of theaters, which is flagrant
ly violated by the Davis Theater and
others.
The ordinance proposed merely re
quires the placing of a bucket or two
«f water on the stage and the Installa
tion of a two-Inch pipe connecting with
the street water main as a flimsy pre
caution against fire.
The, ordinance came from no one
knows where, for It was never con
sidered by the fire committee, to which
It should have been referred. It was
parsed to print by the euperrlsors out
of p.n evident kindness of heart for one
of their colleagues, who was in dis
tress because his theater was in dan
ger of being closed.
At the last meeting of the board
final action on the ordinance was post
poned, because the members shied at
passing an ordinance which was Ille
gal on its face, inasmuch as it con
flicted with the general ordinance on
the subject.
It is possible that before a vote Is
taken on the final passage of the ordi
nance tomorrow it \u25a0will be referred to
the fire committee, in order to let
r>av!s down easy. in all likelihood
th» final action on the ordinance will
be to postpone it indefinitely, if it* de
feat is not actually encompassed by
the required ten negative votes.
Aside from Davis' championing of an
S5-cent gas rate, which -was a viola
tion of bis pledge for a 76-eent rate.
made before the Union T-Abor party,
fotti«» of the Supervisors are angered
at his lukewarm attitude relative to
the dlFguetlng portrayal of an Irish
character in Kolb and Dill's show.
DRUNKEN MOTHERS CHIEF
CAUSE OF CHILD'S MISERY
Cruelty Society Receives Sensational
Report From Secretary White Re
garding Complaints Received
The February report of Secretary M.
J. White, filed at Friday's meeting of
the California Society for the Preven
. tlon of Cruelty to Children, showed
that the number of complaints was
the largest In the blstory of the so
, ciety; that the majority of cases of
neglect and miseTy was floe to drunk
, enness, asd toat there were three times
as many drunken mothers as drunken
fathers.
To liquor jg attributed the large
number of charges of Immorality
against mothers. The settlement of
forty-seven cases out of court, in fami
lies that listened to reason and prom
ised to conduct themselves properly,
led President Newhail to advise that
'the society use every means In Its
power to secure an adjustment before
bringing offenders to the hnmlllatloo
of a court proceeding.
The complaints received in Febru
ary totaled 187 and Involved 28 j chil
dren, of whom IC2 were relieved In
various ways. Forty-nine children*
were sent to the Juvenile Court, eight
adults were prosecuted and three con
victed. In the causes for complaint
the druoKenness of the father waa
cited seven times and the drunkenneas
\u25a0of the mother tw«nty-one. In twenty
< five cases the father was accused of
failure to provide. The oomplalnta ln
, volved flfty-two refugees and elghtyw
. five others.
