Israel Cardboard
Factory Destroyed
TEL _AVIV (JTA)—Fire
department and police
experts are investigating
the cause of a fire last
Friday night that destroyed
the Cargal Cardboard Fac-
tory in Lod,- Israel's largest
manufacturer of cardboard.
The fire caused damage
estimated at tens of millions
of dollars, the largest loss
by fire in Israel's history.
The fire broke out when
only several watchmen
were in the building. Two
fire companies from Ram-
leh were unable to control
the blaze and eventually
hundreds of firemen and 30
engines from Tel Aviv were
called in. They were
assisted by many of the 550
workers in the plant who
left their dinners in an
attempt to save the
building. -
Arson 'is suspected
because, after a - major fire-
some eight years ago, a
modem fire protection sys-
tem was installed but it
failed to check. Friday's fire
in time.
