Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smoke Nuisance The second pamphlet issued by the American Civic Association after its organization in 1904 was one dealing with the smoke nuisance prepared by Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., of Brookline, Massachusetts. It has had a wide circulation and has proved a most useful statement of fundamental principles. A number of editions have been called for. Since its publication, however, there has been a very great and encouraging development of public sentiment in the question and a corresponding demand for information and concrete suggestions. This present pamphlet is intended to meet that need. As R. C. Harris, Property Commissioner of Toronto, said, "I believe that an interchange of ideas, and a tendency toward uniform legislation, will greatly assist in the remedy of this public nuisance." The present pamphlet is intended to provide this interchange of ideas and to promote a tendency towards uniform legislation, and generally to create an intelligent public opinion on the smoke nuisance and to indicate measures of effective remedy. The pamphlet contains Mr. Olmsted's original leaflet brought up to date, with references to the recent statutes and ordinances. It also contains the helpful paper of Mr. George W. Welden, of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, on "The Smoke Nuisance on Railroad Locomotives," which paper was read at the Providence meeting of the American Civic Association in November, 1907; also the larger part of Paul M. Chamberlain's paper on "Boiler Room Economy," delivered before the Milwaukee meeting of the International Association for the Abatement of the Smoke Nuisance. Members of the Association and others interested in this work will find the recent pamphlet prepared by D. T. Randall, issued by the Federal Government through the Geological Survey, and the pamphlet by Prof. L. P. Breckenridge, on "How to Burn Soft Coal Without Smoke," issued by the University of Illinois, extremely useful documents. "The Smoke Nuisance and the Law," in the present edition, brings the legal phase up to 1911. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smoke Problem of Great Cities The committee was purely voluntary originally it relied to a considerable extent upon the good Offices of the Lancet, which had not only facilities in regard to publication but also a laboratory which was then in charge of the late Mr. S. A. Vasey, himself a member of the committee. He was very helpful in finding a way through the difficult questions Of the chemical analysis of the large bottles Of dirty water which represented a month's material for investigation. The other active members of the committee were Dr. Des Voeux, treasurer of the Coal Smoke Abatement Society, Mr. J. G. Clarke, Dr. R. Lessing, all of London, Mr. J. B. O. Kershaw, of Manchester, and Bailie W. Smith, of Glasgow. Some of these names were already well-known, and have now become still better known, in connection with the Smoke problem of great cities, but the question referred to the committee was limited to the investigation of the amount and nature of atmospheric pollution for its own sake, to adopt a phrase that, by long use, has acquired a sort of scientific implication. The reader must therefore exonerate our colleagues on the committee from responsibility for any thing outside the limits oi purely scientific inquiry which may be found in these pages.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report, the Smoke Abatement League of Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, for the Year Ending December 31, 1913 AS the years pass and our work continues, grows, and we meet in annual session to consider it, to learn what has been done and to devise better methods for its successful prosecution, it becomes increasingly evident at each recurring meeting that there is less need of a long, elaborate report from your Superintendent. Abraham Lincoln, after four years of bloody civil strife, said, in his second inaugural: There is less need of an extended address than at the first. The state of our arms is known to you all, and with high hopes for the future no prediction will be indulged in. Paraphrasing this, there is less need each year for much talk and long reports. After a campaign lasting eight years against the smoke nuisance, the state of our work is known to you all and to such in our city as care to keep in touch with it. With high hopes for the future, with bright dreams for a Spotless Town, no prediction need be indulged in. The work shall speak for itself as the years go by!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smoke: A Study of Town Air The subject Of the emission of coal smoke from chimneys is one which has for many years past forced itself with increasing prominence upon the notice of those residing in the larger towns. It is admittedly its aesthetic rather than its economic aspect which has appealed, in the first instance, to popular sentiment. Blackened buildings, darkened skies, and the general air of dirt and gloom which are typical of an English industrial centre have aroused a growing feeling of dissatisfaction among a certain section of the community, and have led to the formation here and there of societies for the prevention of smoke. Some of these societies have pursued their object with praiseworthy energy. By means of pamphlets, public addresses, conferences and exhibitions of smoke-preventing appliances they have sought to enlist public sympathy. They have pointed to the loss of fuel which coal smoke entails, to the physical deteriora tion and lo'wered vitality of the inhabitants of towns caused by inhaling a contaminated atmosphere, to the loss of daylight, and to the destruction of vegetation. It is a remarkable fact, nevertheless, that in face of the active propaganda of these societies, and a very widespread sympathy with their aims, as well as the existence of certain repressive legislative measures directed against the smoke of factories, placed in the hands of the local authority, the emission of smoke continues with almost unabated vigour from both house and factory chimneys.
