Then fires were started in two similar cases, which were enamell- ed with the white glaze so fami- liar in the passenger accommoda tion of ships but one of them had an undercoating of the Fraat ing compound and the other had not, Temperatures were taken and showed a great variation, between the two. In a few minutes the

Time counits for much in ад emergency at sea and a substance which has the effect of retarding the spreading of a fire for even a few minutes while fire fighting forces were being organised would have its important part in saving ife and property:
One of the claims for. "Firesta" is that materials treated with the compound emit very little smoke when set alight. The substance is the product of the Keystone Paint and Varnish Company, Limited,
