Noonday Gathering at Commercial Club Hears Fuel Engineer on Big Problem. Questions Applicable to the Salt Lake Situation Are Asked and . Answered. That Salt Lake la taking a vital and abiding interest in the battle against the smoke nuisance was demonstrated yesterday by the large attendance at the Commercial club luncheon to listen to an address by Osborn Monnett, fuel engineer of the United States bureau of mines The number and scope of the questions propounded to tpe combustion engineer when he invited discussion also Indicated that ... many citizens-- ., . are ... thoroughly aroused and are determined to leave nothing within their power undone In their efforts to solve the problem. Parley P. Jenson, chairman of the program committee, introduced E. O. Howard, president of the Presidents' club, as chairman of the meeting. Mr. Howard said that the manner In which a city met and solved Its greatest problems was Indicative of the character of the citizens. He instanced Oalveston, San Francisco, Seattle and Spokane as typical examples of quickly arising to an emergency condition. He added that Salt Lake was confronted with a problem demanding complete unity of spirit and on the part of every citizen, which be believed would be obtained. Any man Is not a who withholds that he said. citizen," good Engineer Begins Talk. Mr. Monnett, Introduced as a distinguished engineer who had devoted a large part of his life to the study of smoke problems in many cities," began his brief address by a humorous reference to smoke" being the burden of so many talks. If, as members of the Commercial club," he said, you labor under the impression that all the talk la about smoke, you must know that Is a choice of two evils. Either you will be talked to death about smoke or smoked to death without talk." The combustion engineer then briefly reviewed the smoke investigation, con ducted jointly by the city, the University of Utah and the United States bureau of mines. He showed that during the period from September, 1919, to June, 1920, the smoke question had been scientifically studied from every possible angle, observations being taken at every hour of the day and night, over the entire city, from street level to an altitude of more than 3000 feet above the ground. This work, he said, furnished the data upon which the report giving the best methods of attacking the menace was based. Fight Yet Young. So far as Salt Lake Is concerned," said Mr. Monnett, "the citys attacking of the smoke problem is, as you know, recent. Many other cities took up the question fifteen or twenty years ago and have accomplished such good results as to become commercially free from smoke. That Is, they have eliminated the amoke to such an extent that It no longer interferes with normal business conditional or- Discussing the proposed dlnanoe whV has been prepared and 1s soon to be passed by the city eommls- slnn, Mr, Monnett- - said that it contained nothing sharply radical, but had been drawn with a disposition to be reasonable after careful study of existing conditions. He affirmed that an ordinance could not stand In the. courts, even If it were drawn and passed, because his long experience as prosecutor in hundreds of cases, while smoke Inspector In Chicago, had taught him that for any ordinance to stand. It must be reasonable. The expert then said that he thought the Interests of the meeting would be best served by an open discussion of such questions as the citizens in attendance might choose to ask. The questions came promptly. anti-smo- "alr-tlgh- t" Questions Are Asked. How much of the city's smoke do you hope to eliminate by the methods suggested?" was among the first of the queries. In answer to this Mr. Monnett explained that the survey had shown the smoke density from the large plants to he 29 per cent, which, by the adoption of correct and methods? firing, could be apparatus reduced to I per cent; that the locomotives In the city showed a smoke density of 5 per cent, which could be cut to 714 per cent; that the entire residence district showed a smoke density of 7 4 per rent, which could be lowered to 3 per rent, while the small heating plants and apartment houses had, at the time of the a smoke density of It per cent, 'survey, which might be reduced to 3 per cent. "What proportion of tne smoke 'comes was another ques, from the smelters? tion "Exhaustive tejia, extending over a ,ong period, show that In Salt Lake the smelter smoke Is a negligible quantity," said Mr. Monnett. If everybody carried out the proposed program, would the smoko that is here be dissolved?" was asked. Location Peculiar. f! Due to Salt Lake's peculiar location, the smoke that Is here slays here, the engineer said. "Often, In the early morning hours, It settles down over the city In the form of a fog. but this would generally be dissipated by the sun In a brief period. Mr. Monnett then referred to the fact that preliminary work was already under way looking toward the extensive use of coke for heating In the future, and be believed that in a few years, at most, the result of Investigations would prove that any of the Utah coals might be of the coal coked and the saved at the same time. Asked aa to the Installation of gas for heating purposes, the expert said that the large size of the Balt Lake blocks and the scattered condition of the homes made the project too costly to be seriously considered for general adoption under existing conditions. Chairman Howard called upon W. J. Halloran for an expression of his views Mr. Halloran asked as to the feasablllty of central heating plants. He asked If those of the Utah Power A Light comso been not had pany operated as to be virtually free from smoke. Central Plants Approved.' Mr. Monnett replied that a central heat. Ing plant, properly operated, would aolve the smoke problem for the district to which It supplied heat, but added that the aurvey of laet year had shown that the corner at Third South and State streets . wss about the dirtiest spot In town as to smoke density.

Before Warren Stoubiour, member of. the public utilities commission of Utah, hearing was held yesterday on the application of the Salt Lake, Garfield & Western railroad for permission to add 5 cent each way to the regular fares between Saltalr and Balt Lake during the winter season. The application is made in conformity with the suggestion of the commission when it decided last August that electric lines should not be allowed an Increase in ratea That decision came on the bearing of the application of all the railroads in Utah for permission to Increase rates to the ldvel permitted Interstate by the Interstate commerce oommisslqn. The commission denied the application, as regards steam lines, wherever the present rate is more than 8 cents a mile; and denied It in entirely as regards electric lines. The commission took the position that before It might grant such an Increase the railroads should show the public necessity. At the same time It retained Jurisdiction of the case, so as to to come in at any railroads the permit lime and make showings that additional were revenue necessary. The Saltalr route was among the railroads that appealed from that decision to the Interstate commerce commission. At the same time the Baltair line took advantage of the opportunity afforded by the commission to ask for an increase in rates. The railroad Introduced evidence to show that the line stands a heavy loss during the winter months, although It is found necessary to maintain a service to accommodate workmen at the salt works and elsewhere. Special commutation rates for these men are not affected by the present hearing, but the railroad also takes advantage of a certain amount ef tourist traffic that la offered. It la proposed that this traffic shall pay an extra 10 rents per person for the trip. This amounts to an Increase of about 17 per cent In this class of fare.
