Two years ago 4000 persons died of complications due to the smog in London in one month. The committee set up after that catastrophe reported today that the city's smogs and fogs could be banished forever. It found that air pollution was a "social and economic evil of the first magnitude," and said it was costing the country $700, 000,000 a year. The report was expected to form the foundation of govern ment plans for dealing with the problem. Millions of homes and thousands of factories will be af fected if the report is imple mented. The report recommended es tablishment of smokeless cones where smoke from chimneys would be forbidden, and larger smoke control areas where the use of bituminous coal would be forbidden.
