NEW YORK (fi) - Air pol- lution levels that are not un- usually high, and increases in pollution that may even pass unnoticed, have been linked in a new study with sharp increas- es in deaths from heart a n d respiratory diseases. The study by Dr. Thomas A. Hodgson Jr. of Cornell Medical College concerned t h e deaths. over a 2%/2-year period in New York City, from November 1962, to May 1965. Hodgson criticized what he called the apparent public aim of setting air quality standards only to make sure pollution lev- els don't reach the extreme lev- els t h a t caused disasters in Donora, Pa., in 1948, in London in 1952 and in New York in 1966. "This is certainly creditable," he said, "however, deaths are occurring when there a r e no such episodes, when there are slight and seemingly innocuous increases in concentration from day to day and month to month." Hodgson, an assistant profes- sor of public health, said his mathematical analysis shows that it is possible to get esti- mates of the deaths caused by ordinary levels of air pollution in New York City. "Such estimates a r e essen- tial," he said, "if society is to cope with the problem of air pollution and undertake a ra- tional program of a i r pollu- tion control." Hodgson's s t u d y, reported yesterday in the July issue of Environmental S c i e n c e and Technology, found sizable in- creases in deaths paralleling relatively slight increases in levels of particulate matter in the air. An increase of one unit in the average wdaily concentration of particulate matter during a month results in an increase of more than 13 deaths each day from respiratory and heart di- seases for that month, the study found. An average increase of two units from one month to an- other is n o t unreasonable, Hodgson said - meaning an in- crease in the daily average of 26.7 deaths. That figure would represent an 18 per cent increase over the average 150 heart and respira- tory deaths per day, according to the study. ENDING TONIGHT WINNER, CANNES FILM FESTIVAL "SHOULD BE PLACED ON A 'TEN BEST LIST OF THE YEAR'!" -N..ost RECOMMENDED BY THE NATIONAL SOCIETY OF FILM CRITICS ADAIE N Bo Widerberg's Masterpiece! His first picture since 'Elviro Madigan' CINCINNATI, Ohio (/P)-- A national campaign of mass demonstrations to close down p.u b 1 i c building construction sites in an effort to force inte- gration of unions and bring en- forcement of federal hiring guidelines was announced yes- terday by civil rights leader Herbert Hill. Hill, NAACP labor director told 3,000 delegates here at the group's 61st annual convention that picketing had begun Mon- day at 10 sites in Columbus, Ohio. He said that picketing is planned in Pittsburgh, Chicago, Boston "and many other plac- es in 25 states where public of- ficials have failed to enforce federally-ordered manning ta- bles. "They are the lawbreakers. They are as guilty of breaking the law as those w h o throw firebombs during urban disor- ders." Hill accused the Nixon ad- ministration of destroying the Philadelphia plan for curbing Job discrimination as "a payoff to the building trades unions for their support of the war in Indochina." Earlier, Roy Wilkins, NAACP executive director, told the del- egates that unity is necessary. He called on young militants to "cease the mean, meaning- less sneering" and w o r k for peaceful integration. Wilkins praised the students among the young militants for attacking college admission pol- Union di campaign icies and demanding increased black enrollment, m o r e black faculty members and black- studies departments. But he criticized students who demand separation from white students in classes, dormitories and ac- tivities. Wilkins also criticized racial- separation plans by black mili- tants as ",playing into the hands" of white racists. He'said: "They talk a complete apar- theid except on one point; They want white money.

He will face another Democrat, Bruce Neal, in the August 4 primary.The winner of the pri- mary race will face incumbent Republican Rep. Marvin Esch in the November election. "I am running for Congress because I know that this coun- try can do better. We do not need to accept the current divi- sions among our people; we can make our system work," Still- wagon said. "We must recognize that pov- erty, racism, environment, and the war in Indochina are all connected. Recent events at Jackson State, Kent State and Augusta have emphasized the turmoil in America today. Much of this turmoil comes from the fact that we have been too long engaged in a war which has drained energy and money from our pressing needs at home. For too long we have let the young, the poor and the black act as our national conscience," he said. Stillwagon voiced his opposi- tion to the use of unnecessary force around the world at home. "The involvement in the war in Indochina is only one ex- ample of our support of a series of corrupt, unstable and undem- ocratic governments around the world. The use of force in Cam- bodia, in violation of both inter- national law and the United States Constitution, has set the stage for violence at home. I am opposed to acts of violence by local or national authorities which are directed against dis- senting individuals and groups who are not breaking the law. Officials must limit the use of force to the minimum necessary for the enforcement of existing law," he said.
