Reuss Preparing
Anti-PoIIution Bill

Representative Reuss, DEM
ocrat Of Wisconsin, said he will
introduce legislation to speed
a Nationwide attack on stream
pollution.
His bill, now being drafted
by the House legislative counsel.
would be aimed chiefly at In
tensifying research on improv-i
ing methods Of sewage disposal
and treatment and on the eff
feet and control Of nuclear
wastes entering waterways.
Mr.. Reuss asserted that de-
spite the enforcement and con-
troll work now being done by the
United States Public Health
Service, State and local agen-
cies. sit is evident that all our
efforts to improve sewage treat
ment and enforce anti-pollu-
ton orders against a multitude
of offenders are proceeding far
too slowly"
The biggest need in pollu-
ton abatement, he added. Is
new and less costly sewage
treatment methods that will
surpass in efficiency the best
of today's mu'ti-million dollar
treatment plants.
