Solution To Automobile Fumes
Offers Chance to Make Million
Editor' note: This is the second
of three dispatches on America's
air pollution problems. Today auto
exhaust and air pollution.
By FRED DANZIG
United Press Correspondent
New York (IP) Want
to make a million dollars?
Just figure out a simple, in
expensive gadget that will
eliminate automobile exhaust
fumes.
The need is greater than
ever, for auto exhaust has be
come the major cause of ur
ban air pollution.
The problem is most acute
in Los Angeles, where nearly
three million vehicles burn up
five-and-a-half million gallons
of gasoline each day. That's
a lot of gasoline, and a lot of
smog, for Los Angeles' geo
graphic position makes for
poor natural "ventilation."
Autorities have found that
exhaust vapor, under the
sun's ultra-violet rays, forms
an eye - irritating, rubber -cracking
smog. What it does
to human lungs is something
scientists are busily trying to
pin down.
Traffic Police Suffer
Carbon monoxide is anoth
er part of the problem.
Dr. Morris Jacobs, director
of New York City's Air Pol
lution Control Laboratory,
has said policemen stationed
at busy intersections in some
major cities suffer from vary
ing degrees of carbon mon
oxide poisoning. The cumula
tive effect of such exposure
is another medical unknown.
In Chicago, tests on gaseous
wastes revealed that in a
crowded traffic area, as much
as 50 parts of carbon monox
ide per million parts of air
have been found. That can be
a relatively strong dose for
people with respiratory or
cardiac ailments.
Dr. Edward C. Rosenow Jr.,
president of the Los Angeles
County Medical Association
has said heavy carbon monox
ide concentrations in the air
increases anxiety and tension
among people suffering from
respiratory or heart diseases
if it does nothing else to them.
Three-Front Attack
In the fight against auto
exhaust, the Automobile Man
ufacturers Association has
spent more than $4 million on
research since 1954. The at
tack covers three points:
Finding a device for shut
ting off fuel, isolating carbu
retor valves when the car
slows down.
Dealing with the exhaust
side of the engine through
"afterburners," or catalytic
mufflers and filters.
Development of a filter
to eliminate smog causing
hydro-carbon in our fuels.
One problem here is that
every car has different types
of hydrocarbons in its exhaust
and we still don't know how
much and which types are
harmful.
Ford and General Motors
have developed gas strainers
which show promise but re-
EDITOR DIES
Meridian, Miss. (IP) The
owner and editor of the Daily
Meridian Star, James Henry
Skewes, 70,: died here Tues
day. Skewes headed the Sun
shine Press, Inc., which owns
several newspapers" in New
Mexico, Missouri, Colorado
and Mississippi. For many
years, he was part owner of
the Laurel (Miss.) Leader-Call.
quire more experimentation.
All companies have developed
carburetors which cut down
on the amount of unburned
fuel in the exhaust principally
when the car is slowing down
or idling. Unfortunately, re
search later showed unburned
fuel was produced in exhausts
during acceleration and crui
sing periods, so carburetor
savings were reduced. . -
While research and experi
ments continue, the AMA be
lieves vehicle exhaust pollu
tion can be cut down some
what if people keep their cars
in good running condition and
remember that this form of
pollution is invisible.
Not Practical Answer
In buses and trucks that use
diesel oil, experiments indi
cate fumes can be minimized
if a mixture, of propane and
diesel oil is used. But, for var
ious reasons, this is not a
practical solution.
Many researchers say the J
problem cannot be solved un
less we find a replacement for
the Internal combustion en
gine. And one authority has
said, perhaps out of frustra
tion, "Let's take the gas tanks
off all cars and we'll lick this
problem."
Whatever the solution, it
won't be cheap.
Said John M. Campbell,
chairman of the AMA's . re
search group, "an exhaust
treatment program will be
very costly. It will be costly
in terms of first cost. It will
be costly in terms of install
ation. It will be costly in
terms of maintenance and inspection."
Georgia-Pacific To
Build Mill at Toledo
Portland OP) The Georgia
Pacific Corporation is plan
ning a new gang mill to be
constructed at the firm?s To
ledo, Ore., lumber division,
which is expected to produce
80,000 board feet of lumber
a day.
Robert B. Pamplin, Georgia
Pacific president, said cost
would be more than $300,000.
He said the mill would be of
the whole-log type, employing
28 men a shift.

Pleasure Boats Reach Mouth of Columbia
Astoria OP) Fourteen stur
dy pleasure boats reached the
mouth of the Columbia river
Tuesday night, tying up at
host berths here and at Ilwaco,
Wash. They had a Coast Guard
escort for the last part of the
512-mile journey from Clarks-
ton, Wash.
The big pleasure boat cruise
was undertaken to promote
recreational boating on Pa
cific Northwest rivers.
First white men to Settle in
Arkansas were Frencn trad
ers, who, in 1936, established
a trading post which is now
marked by a state park.
