                    Beijing Issues First Red Alert for Smog

   by William Ide

   Beijing has issued its first-ever red alert for smog, imposing strict
   restrictions on cars, halting work at polluting work sites and closing
   schools. VOA's Bill Ide reports on the grim milestone for China's
   capital, which came after even worse pollution last week.
