Das- I vc to handle. The snow and rain Pollution of Ihe nefrfleM river is scored by Frederick Van dc Water in an article appearing in the current number ot "Outdoor America." 'fhe section ot the article entitled "Rivers" which applies to the Dcerneld is as follows: 'Can you Imagine the electorate sitting meekly and abjectly while private enterprise laid hold of a hill Greylock in Massachusetts or Monadnock in New Hampshire or Hood in blasted it away for Its own selfish commercial purposes? Can you picture the men of any state submit ling patiently while some corporation hewed down a state forest or burned over game refuge so that Us shareholders might enjoy larger dividends? You can't, and neither can I. Yet each of us can name, with scarcely moment's thought, a half dozen rivers that have been used more foully; poisoned by factory waste, defamed by sewage, slaughtered by ilycstufls and oil, strangled by power dams. "To whom do these rivers belong? Not to the commercial enterprises that debauch them, nor even to the cities -hat spew filth Into them. They belong to the electorate, to the public, to mankind.

And what does mankind do to protect its property from private exploitation? In the West I am told, a belated crusnde to recover the watercourses is organizing under the banner of the Izaafc Walton League. Here In the East, where corporations are. perhaps, more firmly entrenched, matters progress more slowly and timidly. "Through the hills of northwest New England winds the Deerfleld river, a broad, strong stream marching under the fluttering white pennons of rapids from to pool. I have seen nowhere fairer trout water.

Six days in the week, it is clear, cool, sparkling. The only the second or third is a muddy-white, glutinous travesty ol a river, stifled by the sticky wastage clumped therein from a factory. This industry does not own the Deerfleld. The people of Massachusetts and Vermont are Its proprietors. Some of them, in partic- the Shelburne Falls Chapter of he Izaak Walton League, have gone great trouble and considerable ex- jcnse to stock the Dcerneld liver Trout that live though the muck poured into that stream by nn enter- that docs not own it must have enormous hardihood.

Yet efforts protect them have been unlforinlj unsuccessful so far. "Nor is this all. A power company not content with the several danv nheady erected on the Dcerneld. hti still another under way. Behind it nuch naturally gorgeous trout wate vill be drowned.

Before it. for a mill or moro. the stream bids fair to polish entirely, for the company plan. 0 denect the current and shunt i hrough a hill by tunnel, thus Icav ng a long and now lovely scgmen of the river's age long bed entirely dry. And yet, that concern docs no own the Dcerneld, as I undcrslam civil law.

Certainly, as far as dlvliv statute is concerned, no river wa created to furnish white fuel for ai electric company or to serve as sewer for factory filth. I should be a little more patlcn with man's smug theory that Go made the world for humanity, i mortals were somewhat more appre ciative of the gift. One of the mos disastrous doctrines we have ab sorbed is that we are lords of crea lion and that the earth belongs to us 1 cannot help feeling that the title should have been left with the Inventor and that we should consider ourselves no more than tenants, perr mlttcd to remain In charge only so long as we take good cnrc of things. ThR world would look considerably less dishevelled if this were part of every man's creed. "The despoliation of the nccrneld is a typical and comparatively mild instance of what men, unhampered by awe or foresight, do to beauty committed to their care.

I expect no one to get particularly excited over it. I employ it only ns one of many such instances.
