(CP)-- Fears that entire families may be slowly dying from incurable fluoride poisoning are sweeping through three rural townships surrounding a large chemical plant, about) seven miles east of this Niagara Peninsula commu- nity. The townships have a popula- tion of 3,874. The disease can be caused by breathing polluted air, Reeve William Siddall of Sherbrooke Township says every man, woman and child living within six miles of the huge Electric Reduction Co. of Canada Ltd. plant should under- go urine and blood tests to de- termine if they have traces of fluoride poisoning. Dr. G. L. Waldbott of Detroit, a leading U.S. lung disease ex- pert, last week said chemical fallout from the plant is not just J arnt tnent tt inning nm killing cattle and crops, but has ° started to claim human lives. He said two of nine farmers living within three miles of the plant are dying from fluoride poisoning. Dr. Waldbott, interviewed in a special CBC documentary on air pollution, did not name the two farmers. He said it would be breaking a patient-doctor confi- dence. . Health Minister Matthew Dy- mond said he cannot acrept the U.S. doctor's diagnosis until his findings have been confirmed by a Canadian hospital. But he did concede Dr. Waldbott is one of the world's leading experts on fluorosis. The electric reduction plant built on the edge of Lake Erie in Sherbrooke Township in 1960 to manufacture fertilizers is a subsidiary of Albright and Wright of England. It employs 300 men. The company claims to have spent $250,000 to combat air pol- lution caused by a fine white dust that is carried in the air for a distance of 10 miles, Farmers disagree with the com- pany"s claim to success Reeve Siddall, who lives with- in a half-mile of the plant, said . *It's poison, that's what it is". He said the company's tax bill amounts to 75 per cent of the township's total tax revenue. "But we don't want our peo- ple sick, we don't want them to be affected by this." James S. Medves, plant man- ager, said that while the com- pany is concerned "we have seen no evidence to support the contention that human health has been affected." The company announced ear- lier it had paid out $95,000 to settle claims from farmers and urban dwellers, who claimed livestock, crop, shrubbery and tree damage from the plant in 1965. Another 49 claims filed for damage in 1966 amounting te $123,000 have not been settled. Reeve Keith Richardson ov nearby Dunn Township said he also believes medical tests on residents should be carried out. The dust sticks on windows of Port Maitland homes and will not wash off, he said. Eventu- ally it begins to pit the glass Joseph Casina, 54, a Moulton Township farmer, said he spends $7.50 a week for drugs for the pain with which he says he constantly lives. He takes seven different drugs a day He was one of the nine exam- ined by Dr. Waldbott and one of the sickest "If I'm dying from anything f want to know what it is,"' he said. "I asked the doctor what the chances of recovery are. He wouldn't answer." JOSEPH CASINA, left, a 54-year-old Moulton Town- ship farmer, says he seven drugs a day for pain which he says he has con- , Ted C, Boorsma, 35, right, says he also is on a heavy dose of stantly. His neighbour drugs and can work at only 60 per cent efficiency on his farm. Mr. Casina is one of nine men examined by De- troil lung disease expert Dr, L. Waldbott.
