Duties of Industry Weyerhaeuser Manager, Attorney Probe Pollution By WANDALYN RICE Of the Emerald Attorney Charles Porter and John McEwen, general manager of Weyerhaeuser Company, gave differing views on present pollu tion problems in a panel discus sion on “Industry’s Role in Pollution Abatement.” Porter told members of Al pha Kappa Psi, the professional business honorary on campus, which sponsored the panel, that “The duty of industry is not to pollute.” McEwen emphasized “The ul timate bill for the equipment is ‘paid by John Q. Public” for effective- pollution abatement.

Porter explained his conten tion, which he has taken to court, that industries can be prosecuted under common law for trespassing when their pol lution intrudes on their neigh bors. Porter said although toxic substances released into the air by Weyerhaeuser are in low levels, “They don’t know what effect these toxic substances have at low levels over long periods . . . and they don’t care.” The solution to the pollution problem, Porter said, lies in “more indignation” by the pub lic. He proposed that industries be taxed for the amount of pol lution they put into air and water. McEwen emphasized the practical aspects of pollution control, saying more effective pollution control devices have to be invented and the cost of these devices will be borne by the consumer. McEwen explained that costs of pollution control only go down to a certain point, and then go up as the control reaches 100 per cent effective ness. Really effective devices, Mc Ewen said, will have to be re quired by law if they are too expensive, because no single company will be able to in stall them and remain compe titive. Because of these problems, the question arises, “How much are you willing to pay for pol lution abatement?” McEwen said. All three panel members agreed that pollution is an im portant problem and new ways are going to have to be found to control it. Sociology Prof Talks to Grads By DEBBIE EVANS Of the Emerald “Race Politics and Urban Problems” was the topic of John Howard, assistant professor of sociology, in a talk to students and faculty at the Graduate Center Tuesday. According to Howard, the concept of power is the main element in understanding the race problem of today. Includ ed in this concept are 1) the uses of power and 2) ways in which power is useful. The first term that comes to the mind of individuals when the term power is mention ed in regard to the Negro is “Black Power.” This term, said Howard, came to public atten tion in 1966 and connotes a term with high potentials to produce problems. The Black Power concept of today contains a cultural ele ment and a political element. Howard dealt mainly with the political element thus using power in a political sense. This political sense gives meaning to the term Black Power in various ways. The average citizen usually thinks of the term Black Power negatively be cause of the word “Black.” Howard says, however, that the word which relates this feeling to the public is in real ity, “power.” The true meaning of the word power today is “getting what you want,” stated Howard. In America the word power and race relations suggests a way in which the "Black people are treated by Whites," com mented Howard. Howard then proceeded to explain how political power ex ists at various levels of govern ment." The two levels, accord ing to Howard, are the congres sional level and the municipal level. On the municipal level, said Howard, the Black man is "slowly approaching a non - White minority.” As an example of this, the school was given. The analogy of "if school A gets something, then school B doesn't” was given by Howard. To clarify this statement he HOT PIZZA Pietro's CAMPUS AREA DELIVERY SERVICE Check Our Schedule Call 726-4415 spoke of eight schools recently built in Oakland. Four of these schools were erected as per manent buildings in the middle class area. The remaining four were erected as temporary buildings in ibe ghetto area. The temporary buildings, said Howard, offered the child in the ghetto only a temporary edu cation in a temporary building. This situation concerning the schools was described as con fronting incompatible interests with a lack of understanding of the situation* * The distribution of power in cases such as those just cited were termed as "those who have it (power), use it.” The sentence of Howard's which sums up the idea behind his talk was the question, "What is the potential for giving Black Power a pragmatic meaning?” The Oregon Daily Emerald Is pub lished Monday thru Friday, Septem ber to May, except during exam and vacation periods.
