WILL DOT give US the fiyless,
mosquitoless summer we are all
hoping for Z That depends on the
intelligence with which we use this
new preparation which was so
valuable for insect control during
our troops wartime occupation of
tropic islands! To be effective, DOT
must be applied in the right form,
in the right way, and at the right
time.
Moreover, many people will be
reluctant to use it without first
knowing more about its possibly
harmful effects. For their reas-
surance, it crn be said that, while
DOT is poisonous, it is much
less so than most insecticides.
Those using it should guard
against breathing in or swallowing
any Of it, and prolonged contact
of oil solutions of DOT with the
skin should be avoided.
Applied as Dust
1t may be applied as a dust, as
an oil spray, or as an aerosol prep
nration, which means a prepara-
ton in which the DOT is mixed
with u gas. For example, dr.,t
mixture of 10 per cent Of DOT
is non-irritating and may be used
for the control Of lice. A 5 per cent
solution of DOT in kerosene or
fuel oil is effective for controlling
mosquitoes.
DOT in the form of a spray,
dust or aerosol preparation aids
in keeping down the fly population.
In this way, the danger from fly
borne dysentery may be greatly

Americas Trouble

The editorial which follows is not
ours. but one with which we agree.
We think il is worth rcading-anti
heedin2. Ii is from a newspaper
known as For Relcase"-that'S its
name. II is published by and Tor
The other morning we picked up
newspaper and III ulC Of the SYN =
dictated columns saw the following:
Explanation OF different types ui
government dictated, but not
read. by Henry Wallace.
Socialism: You have Two cows -
you give one To your ncighbor.
Communism: You have TWO cows.
you give both To the Government.
FaSciSm: You have two cows. you
keep the cows and give the milk 10
the Government. The Government
sells part Of it back To- you.
New Dealism: You have two cows,
the Government shoots one COW. The
Government mllkS the other and
pourS the milk down the sewer
Naism: You have two cows. the
Government shoots you and keeps
both COWS.
Capitalism. You have Two COWS.
yos sell one COW and buy u bull.
The last sentence in the above
holds the key to the success of this
nations productive capacity. The
reason why the Uaitrd States und"r
it, capitalistic system has been able
10 feed the world. arm the world
and finance the world through two
OF the greatest wars of all times. is
because under the system which we
have thus far enjoyed there were
always those who owned two COW,
but NOR" important still there
were also those who owned the bull
which made it possible for tn"
cow owner to multiply his stock.
Despite the fact that we in Amer
ica have many poor people, Still!
even these realize that today theV
own somcthing-They own their
ability to work-and more impur-
tant still. is the fact that today they
can put that ability 10 work.
The great trouble in this country
today is the fact that too many -!
us are trying 10 make the whole
world better before we put our own
house in order.
b When the OPA died only one state
in the nation was found 20 have
law protecting rents This proves
one thing very forccfully. We rs Il
nation have been sliding so far to-
ward totalitarian control that We
forget that there is such thing as
a town. city. county or state. To
make the national government more
workable we must start with its
smallest unit. To make over a ma
tional population we must start with
