DOT Is a Boon
And Boomerang
Kills Not Only Mosquitoes,
Flies, but Birds and
Fish, Tests Show.

CHICAGO. - DOT, the war-devel-
oped insecticide, is proving to be
both a boon and a boomerang, says
the Associated Press.
1t is killing mosquitoes and flies,
but it is killing birds and fish, too.
These intended and unattended re-
suits r being noted in tests now
underway in forest, farm and marsh
around the country, tests
which make it clear that DOT must
be used with great care.
A progress report on current ex-
periments was obtained in an inter-
view with DR.. Clarence Gotham,
chief of the division of wildlife re-
search of the interior departments
fish and wildlife service.
"DDT is effective against most
types of insects" he said. "It is
highly effective against flies and
mosquitoes. Where properly used, it
also will have great value in the
control of field insects.
Hits Fish and Birds.
"But it will kill a lot of things
we don't want killed. Our studies
show that five pounds per acre in a
forest will either kill birds or drive
them out. More than one-half pound
per acre is damaging to fish, turtles
and frogs. DOT is effective against
bees.
"It kills beneficial insects as well
as obnoxious insects. Therefore, it
should be used with understanding,
intelligence and caution. DOT has
great potential use, but it will be a
boon only if properly used. If used
in excess, it will be like scalping
to ure dandruff. 1t will do more
harm than good"
During the war scientists watched
the chemical used in checking
typhus at Naples and to destroy
disease = carrying flies, mosquitoes
and lice in other war zones. They
too figured that it could be harm
full as well as helpful if handled in
Discriminatory.
Last spring the fish and wildlife
service joined in experiments de-
signed to determine the smallest
amounts of DOT that could be used
effectively against pests without de-
stroying desirable or economical
ly important forms of life.
Shown by Tests.
The Patuxent wildlife research
in Maryland, a ~2,600-acre
reservation, became n of the
proving grounds.
An airplane strewed the COM
pound over a 117-acre tract there
on the basis of two pounds per acre.
The drifting spray killed fish in pits
$50 to 200 yards away from the test
area.
DR.. Gotham reported that DOT
can control certain forest insects but
it also eliminates insects on which
birds feed. The department of agri-
cultures bureau of entomology, he
recommends that the insecti-
eide be used on a small scale in
wooded sectors and be restricted in
such cases to nc more than a half
pound per acre. Preliminary OBJ
Servations, he said, indicated that
it is effective against mosquitoes in
loses as small as one-tenth of a
pound per acre.
Still without answers are these
questions:
When the chemical remains in wa
.er, will it have a cumulative effect
IN such delicacies as ducks, oysters,
,lams and crabs?
What effect will it have in agricul-
ural districts On necessary soil bac-

Unless there is clear. analytical

In spite of all the III considered

through reducing the cost of

During the constructive decades

penurious jobs for all at the cost
of a stupendous and disastrous

Since 1880, when better tools
and added mechanical energy
were used as a result of the tech
nology of the power age, Ameri-
can living standards we're raised

REFUTES CLAIMS

1t was sheer nearsightedness to
regard the coming of the automo-
bile, for example, merely as a
device for putting the wagon
makers. the harness makers and
the stable boys out of work. The
automobile added enormously 10
the total use of transportation,
and it brought 10 new jobs for
every old one il rendered obsolete.
Behind the assembly lines of the
automobile factories were thou
sands of distributors, dealers. ga
RACES, gas stations. and service
stations. Related tourist indus
tries similarly grew up in the
wake of the automobile.
OF course, we should aim at a
high level OF economic activity.
But we should base our program
on a real understanding of what
will produce constructive results.
Detroit evening times., 1945-06-10
BALANCE NECESSARY

To get a high level of construc-
tive employment, we need TO
understand economic balance and
equilibrium, so that the producing
groups in agriculture. industry,
trade and the service occupations
will be in such balanced income
relationships to one another that
they can provide employment for
one another through interchanging
the products of their years work.
If genuine balance exists, it will
not be in order for collectivists to
seek to give the appearance with
out the reality of jobs through
boondoggling, on the one hand. or
war diversions, on the other.
Social security, within limits,
has a legitimate role in financing
workers as they shift from OBJ
solete jobs to productive occupa-
tionS.
