Speaking In regard to the Charge
that the Mountain Statea Power com
pany plant waa responsible for the
spread of soot over numerous neigh
boring sections, because holes had
been shot through the screens of the
plant's smokestacks, Mr. McLagan '
said, "The shooting of screens was
discontinued about tour years ago.
Since that time new screening, have
been put on all three atacks. Of
course, the new screening is coarse
enough that small particles of soot
can stilt get through, but In my opin
ion, a considerable quantity of the of
fending cinder, comes from the Booth
Kelly refuse burner. Especially Is
thla true since three shifts are em
ployed at the mill, thus necessatins
the crowding of the burner."
