such similar partitions should be made practically fira proof, like a fire proof wall ↑

No,

I would not say fire proof, but something reasonably

fire rasiat ing.

Not like a fire proof wall that you build

No.

You dont insist on having partitions of the strength 8

think it would be better?

If there were no partitions at all, the question does

not arise.

↑ am speaking of those partitions in question. Do you 8757 thin, if they were not there at all, there would hə

greater safety in case of fire ?

I cant express it that way.

I want it, if you can answer that question, because 13958

you take up the ground, looking after the publio

interests, of having a place as fire proof as possible

to prevent d anger, and you have called upon them to pull this down. Now then, would that building be more

fire proof without this iron soreen, than with it?

No, it would not.

Would it be less fire resisting, without those screens

There would be less draught there.

Nd, I think it would make practically no differenne.

But they would certainly not increase the danger to the

building, hy having them there ?

A.

No, I dont think that they would.

Q.

But could they possibly,

good iron partitions,
