Donora's disaster was an acute form of a enronje conoiu'm which affects most Americans. Following Is a dispatch on air pot lution and what Is being done ft' bout it. By JOSEPH L. MITER United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON (UP) All Amer icans breathe dirty and occasion ally poisonous air some of the time. Seventy per cent of them, the residents of large city areas, breathe it most of the time.

Perhaps as many as 10,000 U.S, I communities, a survey indicated recently, have local air pollution problems crying for solution, Not even the wide open spaces of rural America are exempt from "natural smog," blowing dust, for est lire smoke, ragweed pollen, and Invasions of atmospheric filth from distant centers of contamination. 1 The dirty air most Americans breathe may contain scores of different Irritants or poisons everything from acid droplets to zinc fumes. In one community air pollution may appear to be no more than a mild nuisance. In another it may constitute an economic calamity. lit may on occasion become a killer.

Health Hazard One thing appears certain: Con taminated air can be a health haz ard. Many medical authorities are beginning to suspect strongly that it may be a major cause of lung cancer. In any case, exclusive of its ef fect on the nation's physical and social wellbeing, dirty air is a 3e- stroyer of wealth. W. B.

Gibson the Stanford Research Institute has said the direct economic loss from air pollution may be i around $1,500,000,000 a year, Dr. Louis C. McCabe, nationally known air pollution authority has listed some of the costs of air pollution as follows: Depreciation of land and build ings (Including the slum-breeding creeping blight known as "down town $300,000,000. Crop and forest and domestic Pueblo Bonito, western New Mexico, reached Us "golden in 1067, one year after the Nor-man invasion of England. Her Unborn Babe Geo.

N. Tavlor Her daughter had been before the Juvenile Court in Los An geles and the mother came to ner pastor to ask his advice. Pastor asked the mother If sh had ever prayed with the daugh ter. castor, that is the trouble. We never prayed Uslne that as a starter.

the pastor told his laud ie nee that I mothers should begin with pre-natal prayers for the babe yet to be born. Believers 1 must give inemseives if they are to tell others of Christ's death for their sins. George iTiutrnt-i, a Kirai man or prayer, prayed often for the cenversion of three elderly men. Nono converted but all came to Christ mier juueiiers death. God works when you pray.

Equipment installed to control air pollution Damage to merchandise Is anything being done to make the air clean as well as free? In- dividual communities and industries have been fighting against dirty for years. But for only about a year and a half has the federal government been doing much of anything about what has become both an international as well as local health and economic problem.

Funds Authorized And only last summer diu w-n- gress authorize the Public Health Service to undertake a five-year research campaign to find out (1) just what air pollution Is, u) just what it does, and (3) how best to combat it. For the first year of the campaign Congress appropriated $1,780,000. How long will It be before the campaign produces major results? Many, many years. Research on the chronic effects of air pollution alone will take more than five years, according to the government. Air pollution is as old as nature.

Pliny the Elder was killed by poisonous air in 80 A.D. during an eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Man-caused air pollution is the big menace to modern populations, however. Ever since the industrial revolution got under way in the 18th century man has been pouring billions of tons of waste gas smoke, dust and chemicals into the atmosphere. It has been estimated that factory chimneys each year vent six billion tons of carbon dioxide alone.

The rise of the motor car with Its exhaust fumes and of the chemical indus try has added incalculably to contamination of the once-safe air. Smog Disasters It took the great smog disasters of the 20th century to awaken au thorities to the health hazards of dirty air. In 1930 a heavy fog en veloped the highly industrialized Meuse Valley of Belgium. The toll: 60 dead Seven years ago on Oct. 27, 1948, a similar fog rolled over Donora, an Industrial town of 12,300 population and sat there for six days.

Twenty died, perhaps as many as 6000 fell ill. In December, 1952, London which had been struggling with smog for six centuries, had its worst blackout. It lasted four days. In the following two weeks some 4,000 persons died before their time as a result. Smog chronically afflicts Los Angeles where "objectionable conditions" exist 100 days out of the 365.

Warm air from the Pacific often is trapped over Los Angeles by high mountains east of the city. Gov. Goodwin J. Knight once asked Mark D. Hollis, chief san itary engineer of the Public Health Service, if removing one of the barrier mountains would help Lqs Angeles rid itself of smog, It would help, all right, but could it.be done? Who's to say what Los Angeles can do? A city that went across the mountains to tap the Colorado River for water might be capable of even greater marvels to get itself a supp)y of clean air.

'Gas' Stations Fplr Jet Planes? CHICAGO, (UP) Atomic powered "gas" stations in the sky jet fighters are anticipated for the future by Gen. Thomas D. While, Air Force vice chief of staff. Nuclear tankers that could refuel conventional jets in flight would give the entire Air Force true' global range, White said in a dinner speech here recently. said our dependence upon foreign bases and on the shortest routes of attack thus would be reduced greatly.

White predicted that nuclear powered will fly within 10 years. He said the first ones would be 'specialized" for use only on missions requiring unlimited range and endurance. The Air Force general also urged a stepup in training of scientists and engineers in this country to avoid the loss of "our technological leadership to the soviet Union."

Weatherford explained that the commission saw a need for an organization that could cany forward projects which the commission has been working on the past four years. The commission will go out of existence on Dec. 31, 1955. The 1955 session of the Oro-gon legislature created the Water Resources Board and discontinued three basin commissions as well as some other agencies concerned with the uses of. water.

Aid Given The Upper Columbia River Basin commission has been aiding committees and local agencies throughout eastern Oregon to perfect plans and get funds for flood control and irrigation projects. The Upper Columbia River Basin Projects committee would be composed of representatives of eastern Oregon counties within the Columbia river watershed, Weatherford said. In each county the county judge would appoint a county committee chairman. Members of the county committee would elect other officers. The governor of Oregon would appoint the chairman of the areawide committee.

According to proposed by law's of the organization, adopted at a meeting of the Upper Columbia' River Basin commission at The Dalles this month, county committees would meet every month and the areawide committee would meet annually. Meeting Held Here Weatherford said that the Upper Columbia River Basin commission had discussed the proposed organization in recent months with persons interested in water uses- at meetings in Bend, John Day Burns, La Grande, Baker and The Dalles. He reported interest had been so evident at those meetings that the commission decided to write by-laws and get organizational plans underway immediately. Additional meetings will be held at Arlington, Heppner, Vale and Pendleton in November and December to explain the plan. Weatherford said that the commission had been encouraged in its effoHts to set up the organization by Gov.

Paul Patterson and members of the Water Resources Board.
