Fire Commissioner John F. Cullerton. of Chicago. Ill., recently completed plans for the survey and inspection of practically every building in the city. He expects to lay the program for this survey before Mayor Dever and it is believed that it will be carried through at an early date. Referring to the matter, Mr. Cullerton said: "At present

The signs on a building may designate it as a machine shop, but the firemen don’t know for a certainty whether several hundred gallons of highly combustible or explosive material is stored there.
