TEN PEOPLE COLLAPSE
OVERCOME BY MOTOR EXHAUST
NEW LONDON DANGER
(United P. A.—By Telegraph — Copyright.) (United Service) LONDON, Friday. The increasing dangers from motor exhaust fumes in London's congested thoroughfares were illustrated by an extraordinary incident in the Blackwall Rd. Tunnell, beneath the Thames, to-day. Ten people fainted, 30 others were partly overcome, and three were taken to hospital. After a traffic block a long string of motor-cars and buses were pumping their exhaust gases into the air. The driver of a motor-bus staggered out of his seat and collapsed on to the pavement. The occupants of other cars were successively overcome.
