We never expected Roy to-

1t Can Happen Here

In their sympathy and concern Tor
the London fog victims, Americans
would do well to heed the admonition Of
Public Health Service authorities who
warn 1t can happen to one of our cities.
In fact, there already is the case of
20 deaths in Donora, Pa, during one
week IA years ago, and of an excessive
death rate in New York during period
in 1858. Perhaps to most of us, however,
the probability of a major disaster
seems remote, for the reason that we
associate such tragedies with dense,
London-type fog Of long duration. But
less obvious conditions, we are told, also
can lead to suffering and death.
Indeed, the Eastern Seaboard has
just experienced potentially hazardous
week when noxious fumes settled over
many areas because Of stagnant air
mass stabilized by high pressure sys-
tenn. 1t was dangerous enough to cause
the PHS to issue warning through the
Weather Bureau.
After the appalling London disaster
10 years ago, the United States became
more conscious of the fumes from autos,
trucks and buses, factories, incinerators,
backyard burning Of trash and leaves,
and similar perils. Last summer, for
example, Congress extended for another
year $5-million grant for air pollution
research. Control systems have been set
up in the District and surrounding coun-
ties Surprisingly, Fairfax has an air
pollution problem, too). Some, but not
all, the fumes from cars are being choked
off with crankcase ventilation systems in
1868 models.
AS the population increases, so does
the smog, and It's suspected by-products
Of asthma and lung cancer. Deaths pos
sible from the recent immobility of air
in the East are under study. But are we
doing enough? The answer, Of course, is
no. With the latest London tragedy so
close at hand, the Public Health Services
National Conference on Air Pollution
could not come at more propitious time.
Human lives aside, it has been eSti-
mated that the loss annually from air
pollution has reached to II billion
(repeat, billion) dollars a year. That
ranges from corrosive destruction of
property, to loss Of crops we need for
suStenance, to the depletion of animals
When the deserts of Arizona begin cring-
ing from the smog land this is sad
fact) then it is all too apparent that
the Nation is faced with growing dan
ger. That it is Of our own making is all
the more reason to put in the money
and effort to cope with it.

Human Riqhts Day

In the hall where Marian Anderson
once was denied the right to sing,
prompting Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt to re-
sign from the Daughters Of the Ameri-
can Revolution, Washington will observe
Human Rights Day with concerts Mon
day and Tuesday nights. When the COM
memcration was arranged, Mrs. Roose-
welt had accepted the honorary chair
manship, and had expressed hope she
would be well enough to attend. Now the
Constitution Hall program will be played
as tribute TO her.
While the l50-voice Howard Uni
versity Choir sings with the National
Symphony and soloists, many will re-
fleet on the changes evident since Miss
Anderson's embarrassing rejection In
1899. 1t was nine years later that Mrs.
Roosevelt headed the United Nations
committee that drafted the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights. And now
on the l4th anniversary Of that event,
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony paean to
brotherhood will hold much more mean
ing when 1t rings out in Constitution
Hall.

Adenouer and History

In April of 1859 Konrad Adenauer,
then SO years old, took the world by
surprise with the announcement that he
would resign in the following September
as Chancellor of West Germany. Because
his leadership was still vigorous and I'M
rivalled among his countrymen, many of
his followers were baffled and diSmayed
by his sudden decision to relinquiSh it.
Two months later, however, he changed
his mind, declaring that the interna-
tional situation had worSened to such
an extent that he felt impelled to remain
at the helm.
This striking about-face Of three
years ago may suggest that perhaps it
would be wise to take somewhat Skep-
ticai view of the fact that DR.. Adenauer's
prospective resignation has been once
again announced. But actually there is
little reason now to have any doubts
about it. Speaking through Heinrich Won
Brentano, the parliamentary floor lead
er Of his Christian Democratic Union,
the Chancellor, who will be 81 next
month, has declared that he will retire
from office next fall, presumably in
September. Most members of his CDU
apparently want 1t that way, not least
Of all because the decision clears the
ground for the formation of a new
coalition with the Free Democrats, who
created cabinet crisis several weeks
ago by quitting the Adenauer govern
ment in protest against its high-handed
breakdown on the news magazine Der
Spiegel.
Now the big question is, in Germany
and the world at large, who will succeed
the venerable Chancellor? At the mo-
ment the odds strongly favor Economic
Minister Ludwig Erhard ("Mr. Prosper
ity'), who is generally credited with
having played decisive role in the
