It's homes needing frequent paint jobs, draperies thai: shred, plants that sicken and -die. It's slower processes tires cracking, iron and steel rusting, silverware perpetually tarnished. IT'S A SHROUD, tightening day by day.

Dean Mathews, regional air pollution control director of Air Pollution Control Office, Region VI, said that "One- half the pollutants in the air are from transportation. The haze extends 12 miles above the earth's surface." And Dr. Billings. Brown, senior scientist from Hercules, Salt Lake City, said "Protest. Peacefully.

Borrow guerrilla tactics. Use industrial spies. Noon hour demonstrations. Tie up phones at industries. Snarl production." Standards must be set, all states must conform.

It Is a personal responsibility. We must be honest drivers. AND THERE'S more antipollution ammunition. The Arizona Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association, said Ben Chaiken, executive director, has found that Arizona has the highest death rate and case rate for chronic respiratory diseases in the nation. The number of deaths frorii emphysema, he said, doubles approximately every five years.

To encourage nurses to devote careers to respiratory diseases, the association annually names student nurses as scholarship recipients in a program made possible by the ChristmasSealCam- paign. Fifteen student nurses are attending seven Schools of Nursing throughout Arizona on scholarships at the present time. Chaiken signed his report "It's a matter of life and breath." The Chandler Junior Women's, Club is now ready to debut its 10th annual Community Art Show and Exhibit a freely contributed bit of culture to a community that supports it wholeheartedly, like thousands going through the Spanish-styled San a Hotel and thousands entering their own art work.

Clubs to meet this week national chairman of conservation department of GFWC, said "The destiny of our country is in the minds and hands of our youth. Involve them." And on another crisis level, traffic safety, Mrs. David L. Smith of Tempe said, "Safety remains our personal responsibility." Mrs. Smith attended the National Safety Conference sponsored by the General Federation of Women's Clubs hi Detroit.

And all the talks, forums, and demonstrations boiled down to one thing, she said. "We must have all states conform to the highway safety standards." Americans have far too much sympathy for the al- chplic, she said. The problem drinker who drives represents seven per cent of the population, causes two-thirds of the fatal accidents. "If we could only rouse the public to this problem as it is to air pollution, we could have eliminated the danger five years ago," she said.
