BLAMES HOME FIRES FOR CITY SMOKE HAZARD Dr. Morgan Says Industry Is Not Only Offender in Air Pollution. Residential coal users should bear thp blame with Industry for air pollution, Dr. Herman O. Morgan, Health Board secretary, said today at a luncheon meeting of the Indianapolis Smoke Abatement League In the Washington. He Is president of the organization. “We live in a soft coal area, and Dcople quite naturally are going to use this sort of fuel," Dr. Morgan said. “Education in proper methods of tiring and installation of modern stoking machinery should reduce the percentage of foreign material in the air. “Air pollution means constant irritation of the respiratory organs, and is undoubtedly to be blamed for the prevalence of sinus infections here. It also has a bearing on all types of respiratory diseases, com* mon here in winter months." Dr. Morgan pointed out that air pollution has become a serious economic problem here since it necessitates continuous cleaning. It also mars the beauty of the city, he said. Only One Inspector Employed Indianapolis now has only one smoke inspector, employed in the building commissioner’s department, although a city ordinance requires five officers. Dr. Morgan said he would not demand that more men be hired immediately, since he understood the present city budget carries no provision for their salaries. He said the organization does plan to confer with city officials to see if the smoke inspection personnel can be increased later. The league also plans to learn whether Federal funds can be obtained to carry on this work.
