Although the proposed and drafted smoke ordinance haa not yet been enacted by the city coramlaalon, the results of the survey Initiated a year ago last spring are clearly cvidenL A large number of citizens, roused to appreciation of the danger, expense and discomfort caused by the smoke menace, have not waited for an ordinance to be passed, but hare e en now taken such aettonr as assures their willingness and ability to do their part in the fight. Recounting some of the practloal steps already taken ill solution of the smoke problem, R. E, Neslen, chief of the boiler and smoke division of the city engineering department, yesterday said: "Ip the last three months, under the dlreition of the department, citizens have expended approximately 2350,000 in new plants, equipment, alteration and overhauling of heating plants, boilers and furnaces. The county attorneys of Weber and Salt Lake counties have received from Harden Bennion, secretary of state, copies of the records with regard to the candidacies of W. H. Wattis and T. D. Lewis, respectively, before the Republican state convention. Mr. Ben-nio- n forwards the records, according to the requirements of the corrupt practices act of the. state, to the prosecuting officers. These in their turn may exercise their discretion as to whether the records show that the corrupt practices act has been ignored. Mr. Wattis was one of the strongest candidates in a keenly contended race for the gubernatorial nomination at the hands of the Republicans. His chief opponent was George T. Odell of Salt Lake. Supporters of each had been busy for some time before the eonven New Plants Installed.

Crabbe, commissioner of and public property, under whose parka department the smoke work falls, said yesterday that he hadprimarily received assurances from ' superintendents of the various ratlroads showing their hearty cooperation in the work. "I have recently received letters --from all of the railroad superintendents, said Mr. Crabbe, "not alone pledging their hearty support In the fight against the smoke, but also telling t.iat they have posted bulletins notlfjlng all of their employees as to how to proceed to render all of the locomotives aa near smokeless as possible."

To show Its vital Interest In a and speedy solution of the smoke proper problem and in order that It may cooperate with the other organisations working toward a solution, the Salt Lake estate board, at the suggestion of real George D. Keyser, chairman of the mayor s smoke committee, haa directed Sam K. smith, secretary of the board, to cooperate with the committee In every possible way. Mr. Ke aer requested that th board show Its Interest and snthusiaam toward the solution of the problem, which la said to affect the civic life of the city.
