SMOKE; ITS ELIMINATION Pollution of the air by smoke has caused the loss of millions of property and taken a huge annual toll of lives, according to H. B. Meller of the Mellon Institute. Engineers who have devoted years of study to the smoke abatement problem are agreed that the universal use of man -made anthracite, coke and manufactured gas ofte'i:s the best solution. They base thetr convictions on results obtained from certain residential districts where the use of coal has been eliminated altogether in favor of coke and gas, and from laboratory tests.
