Hearn to descend on Chinatown
Building Commissioner O Hearn plans a visit to Chinatown to inspect tunnels regarded as traps with no exits. He demands two exits per tunnel and aims to render passageways safe under the law. He warns of danger from lack of standard safety devices and may order fire sprinklers if laws apply. Thousands of tenement houses are affected.
