Congressional action on the

need" which will be ascertained
through the ratio their per capita
income bears to the national av-
erage, value of products, popula-
ton and several other factors.
The Senate sent the bill to the
White House, without objection and
without a record vote, after its men,
bers of joint conference COM
mittee recommended that House

Industry Cooperation
In Fight on Pollution
Urged by 5othoron
Special Dispoteh 10 The Star

CUMBERLAND, Md. Aug. l.
State Senator L. Harold
chairman of the Inter-
state Commission on the Potomac
River Basin, told the Upper Poto-
mac River Board last night that the
future industrial development of this
area will depend on the solution of
acute" pollution of the Potomac in
this region.
In an address before the board.
recently enlarged to include repre-
septatives of all organizations in the
area interested in pollution abate-
ment and other problems concerning
the development of the Upper Po-
tomac basin, Senator Sothoron said
the problem of pollution is so acute
in this area that unless it is solved
this region cannot develop econom-
ically beyond the point which it has
now reached"
Senator Sothoron said the board
has a vital place in the planning
and coordination of future devel-
opments in the area by indicating
on regional basis to local agencies
the problems they face and in en-
couraging these agencies to solve
the problems for the best interests
OF the entire population.
Warns Of Responsibility.
Asserting that 1t is the duty of
local agencies to chart the course
of river development, Senator Soth-
oron warned that the lack of local
agency responsibility in the Nation
has led to the present trend toward
federalized control in river basin
developments.
Praising the board for it's accom-
pllshment in initiating in 1888 the
Savage River Dam project and fol-
Its efforts toward flood control and
pollution abatement in the area, the
Maryland legislator said the board
also should interest itself in many
additional complex problems.
These, he added, include flooo
control problems at Cumberland
Ridgeley and the Duke-Piedmon,
area, the blishment of priorities
IN area streams for industrial and
municipal water supplies, the en-
couragement of recerational activ-
tiles in the parks and streams OF
the area and the announcement
OF soil conservation and proper
forest practices as outlined by Fed
eral soil conservation agencies.
Industrial Wastes.
- Insofar as industrial wastes are
concerned" Senator Sothoron con-
tlnued, industries should be en-
couraged to plan comparatively for
the control and treatment of their
wastes to such a degree that the
streams in the area will be able to
carry the load without causing OBJ
Jectionable conditions.
The industrial waste problem is
one that cannot be solved in everv
case until further research work is
carried on as to the nature and best
methods for the treatment of these
wastes. The board can be of con-
siderable aid In encouraging indus
try in this region to carry on a joint
program of this nature"
