Dr. R. M. Olin, Michigan health commissioner, says mild winter saved fish in hundreds of streams that were heavily polluted by industrial waste and sewage. Oxygen depletion was extreme, and if streams had frozen over the fish would have suffocated in vast numbers. The oxygen likely built up enough to keep fish alive until action is taken to address pollution.
