AUTO III JUIULK 1 1 Lansing-, Oct- 22 State Fire Marshal Ells-wortli's notice to fire chiefs throushout the state that buildings containing foodstuffs must be guarded day and night, is not to be taken lightly. The state fire marshal, who acted on a tip from State Food Administrator Prescott, Intends to see that a real effort is made to comply -with his request. The state food administrator is interested in this proposition, because the federal department at Washington, becoming alarmed at the large number of incendiary fires in food warehouses and grain elevators, has insisted extra precautions be taken to protect foodstuffs. Incendiary fires in various parts Of the state, recently, leads to the belief that enemies of the government are bejrinnins to use trie bomb and the torch as an effective means of hampering war preparations of Uncle gam. Representatives of the fire marshal's department are -working on several cases and as soon as sufficient evidence is obtained, it -will be turned over to the department of Justice.

It ls eald that hereafter persons charred -with setting incendiary fires to destroy commodities essential to tha successful prosecution of the war. will not be tried before a circuit judfre for arson. Instead, it Is planned to turn these cases over to the district attorney and have the fire-buys brought before the federal grand Juryv While a few successful prosecutions have resulted in arson cases brought by the state fire marshal In the part, it is generally conceded that a person charged with this crime is about aa difficult to convict as a pickpocket. It the offense, however, is one that can be punished by the federal government, it la believed speedier justice will be obtained and more stringent sentence imposed. In many of the large warehouses and elevators private guards have been on watch several weeks.
