The question of the pollution of inter
state streams was revived today by the
action OF the District Commissioners in

draft Of a proposed bill intended to pro-
tect adequately rivers and streams
throughout the United States against
careless and dangerous pollution.
In substance, the proposed measure is
a mandatory prohibition against the dis
charge OF any foreign substance. liquid
or otherwise. dangerous TO public health
into any interstate stream or water
way used for drinking purposes. by bust
ness concerns or persons living along
the borders of sUt Il streams
The act provides for the appointment
by the President OF a commission to be
known as the Interstate Rivers Pollu-
ton Commission. composed of a Sani-
tary engineer. a doctor and a person ex-
perienced in the management of manu-
featuring plants, at an annual salary
OF 5000
The duties of the commission will be
to ask for iniunctions against violators
OF the proposed act from the various
Federal courts and otherwise provide
preventive measures against continued
pollution of streams
For refusal to obey the Injunction OF
the court. the act provides a penalty OF
$50 day until the mandate is answered
