The governor wisely aj facturers, two sanitary engineers and the president of the Oyster Growers' Association. This board of twelve representing all interests is .charged with the tremendous task-of solving the problems of stream pollution and taking such action as it dpems neces- sary and feasible to tore the streams to their natural condition. All the larger streams of the state any of the smaller ones are now v polinted by both domestic sew- age and factory waste. -Domestid segrage alone would be a conparative- Iy simple problem but when combined with Industrial wastes of various kinds the problem becomes most complex. Connecticut _is an industrialized state, almost every communitv having its factory or group of factories, and ev- ery stream getting its dose of acid, dves or other chemicals. The state “health officials have in recent vears studied the stream con- ditions by survey and analvsis—the condition of the, water has been a certained, the points of pollution I cated and the character of the pol- Inting substances determined, but nothing has been accomplished_toward elimination of the pollution. In 1915, authority was given to prevent further poliution but no funds_were provided to carry out the act. This vear $25,- 000 was appropriated for the two vear period and the special board provided to carry on the work. It will be years before any great amount of Pollution will be removed from our streams although from now on each vear should show some im- provement. There are many _who suffgr Dbecause of stream pollution | whoWeel that health anthorities should secure pre-emptory abatement but it must be remembered that present conditions are the. result of small ad- ditions _ccvering . many vears. The municipalities or _manufacturers in many instances had little thovzht as to the ultimate effect upoy the streams A man sewered his house into a nearby stream and it was barely no- ticeable, his nelghbors followed his examplé the - stream became somewhat objectionable. but when the authorities, decided to give the entire community the same privilege by es- toblishing sewers to discharge inta fhe stream its condition became un- bearable. A manufacturer after burning his charcoal for years in pits, learns-that by using iron retorts he can secure valuable chemicals which formerly es- caped in the smoke and gases. The new plant is construeted on the site of the old and the acids and tar wastes from the proceszes of purifica- tion make their way info the nearby stream. Tn both of the cases cited the poilution is the re of develop- ment and to order pre-emptory abate- ment would be to do an injustice to the individual and to the community. While the health authorities have, never contemplated such drastic ac- tion, municipal authorities and owners of industrial establishments have nat.- vrally resented the merest sugrestion of action that might result In serfous inconvenience or possibly finan al em- barassment. At th€ same time sev- eral of the more progressive cities and manufacturers have on thelr own ini- tiative. spent thonsands nf dollars in an effort to purify or rtherwise dis- pose of thelr wastes. The Industrial Wastes Board is the result of a com- plete understanding betwecn the health authorities and the manufac- turers and it assures a co-operation that will unauestionaplv hasten the elimination of the pollution - of the streams of our state. and WILL COMPETE FOR a, Broadway and Greeneville Schools Are Entered.
