two orders of ticks and mites.
Some of our most common forms
of birds such as the song spar
row, robin and bob white quail
have been known to carry as
many as Is species OF ectopara-
sites. This indicates the susceptl-
bility of our bird friends. 1t IS a
rare thing to find a bird OF any
kind without one or more species
of ectoparasites on it. They have
them from the time they match.
Some nestlings die of anemia or
other diseases caused by these
parasites.
Six types of ectoparasites are
eisily recognized.
l. Mallophaga (biting lice) have
to spend all their lives on the host,
eat feathers and down and some
times such blood.
2. Fleas, chiefly live on blood
of nestlings, but occasionally on
adults.
8. Hippoboscid flies, can't live
long off their hosts, are especially
common on nestlings.
4. Protocalliphorid flies are
found on larvae in the nests where
they attack and sometimes kill
nestlings.
5. Ticks are blood suckers. They
attach themselves on the heads
of old and young. They may cause
anemia and general weakness
They may be vectors of diseases.
6. Mites are blood suckers. Also
itch mites and chiggers are in
this group.
About 200 species of ectopara-
sites are found on birds east OF
the Mississippi. The most of these
are not directly harmful to man
| but some are. 4e
Endoparasites
Endoparasites are found in the
internal organs of birds. More
commonly they are in the diges-
tive tract but may be found in
the bloodstream, liver, lungs and
reproductive tract. Three phyla
of animals are represented in this
group. They include Protozoar
or on-celled animals, Platyhel-
minthes, or flatWorms, and nema-
thelminthes, or round worms.
The most common protozoans
are the three general Plasmodium
Haemoproteus, and Leucoproto-
zoan, which cause Avian Malaria
Many birds are known to be killed
by Malaria. Those known to be
killed include young ducks, quail
grouse, turkeys and perhaps song
! birds.
| Trichomonas gallinae is a pro-
tozoan that attacks doves, pigeons
hawks and other wild birds, as
well as chickens and turkeys. This
is flagellate which attacks in the
throat, frequently causing death.
Coccidia is another protozin
parasite found in birds but OF

much less significance.
Worm parasites of birds include
the cestodes, tapeworms) trema-
todes, (flukes) and nematodes
Goundworms). One of the blood
flukes has a water snail for alter
nate host. This fluke, in the laval
stage attacks man swimming in
infested water.
Certain hawks that eat prairie
dogs get their tapeWorrns. Fish
eating birds also get tapeworms
from the fish.

Mr.. WienS was one of three
speakers at the opening session
Of the two-day 35th annual
Sessions of the National Academy
Of Economics and Political Sci
ence at The Brookings Institu-
ton. 722 Jackson place N. w.
The topic is The Middle East
snd Free World Security"
U. S. Aims Cited
One of the aims of American
aid to the Middle East nations
Is to promote security and peace
by contributing to the economic
and political stability of the area
by reducing tensions and by
eliminating conditions conducive
to Communist subversion and
international unrest, Mr.. Wiens
said. But he added it fosters
domestic unrest among its re-
cipients.
Most Of the unrest. he said,
arises among people whose eco
nomic and social conditions are
rising, but are not achieving
progress as rapidly as they would
like. He pointed in particular
to young intellectuals, idealistic
students and factory workers.
Since a little hope. like a
little learning. apparently can
be a dangerous thing" Mr.
WienS said, the question arises
as to whether we are not making
mistake in promoting eco
nomic DEVELOPMENT in the Mid
ole East"
He said it is "unquestionably
true" that to have raised their
hopes was a dangerous step to
take. but it would have been
infinitely more so" to have left
them in continued poverty and
open to eventual Communist
domination.
