The War Department recently
asked the Secretary of Agriculture
and the Secretary of the Interior to
cooperate with the Chemical War
fare Service OF the army In devising
peace-time gases TO combat the boil
weevil and other civic and industrial
pests. The army believes SO many
new chemical gases and other chem

by research work since the war that
the government may be able to eX-
terminate disease-carrying rodents,
ia cities. and rodents and insects
that destroy crops.
The development of war must be

to Brig. Gen. Amos A. Fries, chief
OF the Chemical War Service. Ac-
cordingly. the service has begun a
campaign to develop gases to kill
rats, bugs and worms.
1t is working on request from
Representative Philip D. Swing, of
Imperial Valley. Cal. in the hope of
finding something that will EXTERN

community. Rep. Swing recently

on. He had already asked the gov

in millions in the delta of the Colo
