Kel- 1ock‘s royal commission report on the Noronic fire, tabled in the Conunons today: Destruction of the Noironic and the high loss of life are blamed on failure of the owners and captain to assure proper fire-fighting pre- cautions aboard. the ship. The captain-William Taylor. 66. of Sarnla, Onir-‘WBB also at fault for failing to take general charge of the situation after fire broke out. The captain should have directed in an organized way the amusing of passengers instead of acting him- self as "an ordinary sailor in such tiarls of the ship as he rould Mich.“ Capt. Taylor's certificate is sus- pended for one year. No other certificates were interfered with. Cost of the investigation are to be charged against the owners- Canada Steamship Lines Limited- tm the Exchequer Court scale of costs The question of drunkenness play- cd no major part in the report. The firo patrol system aboard the Noronic was inadequate for early firs detection. The fire found officers snd crew without any organization designed to deal with the situation. High loss of life was the result of lac’: of fire-fighting organizat- ion and absence of s. proper alarm system. Complete complacency in regard to the possible outbreak of fire had descended on both the ship officers and the management. The Noronic had no pro-arrang- ed plan for musing and getting passengers off the ship in event of fire. There was no evidence of the fire having been deliberately set. The fire cause was not estalbllsh- ed although it is known to have started in a small linen closet just forward of the women's washroom Opening onto the port corridor on "C" deck. Such efforts as were made to fight the fire were scattered md inef- fectivo. Ordinary members of the crew took such action when firs was discovered as they would be expect- ed to take in view of the lack of general direction resulting from failure of any officer to take charge of the situation. ‘The fire fighting appliances on board appear to have been satis- factory and in good working order. Experience of the fire indicates need for making fire-resisting bulk- heads a requirement aboard all! passenger-carrying lake ships. Regulations requiring complete coverage of such ships by continu- ous me patrol systems as well ss utitomatic fire alarm systems should be applied.
