TAXES vs. MOSQUITOES
(Cape May Star and Wave)
The need for more Intensive mosquito
control work in future summer
seasons was discussed by the
Cape May County Board of Freeholders
recently, with Freeholder
Corson recommending expansion of
the program and a larger appropriation
for the department to make
such expansion possible.
Today the problem is haw to wage
county-wide onslaught
against
mosquitoes . . . and how to finance
it
It is rather generally agreed
that spraying DDT from airplanes Is
tlie most effective means of obtaining
maximum coverage, for only In
that way can the insecticide be applied
to the vast areas of meadowland
which are otherwise Inaccessible
to machinery.
The Mosquito
Commission is now studying the
problem of spraying by aircraft.
Science has provided the apswer
to the' old question of what can be
done
It is up to the
May County to let "their
officials know whether or not they
favor spending the money necessary
to do a real job of jno&qulto
extermination.
