IC«r*b»w County Not In Li*t To Bo Given Shock (C!ontinued from first page) In. light. Cast moving trucks start spraying the walls and celliOgB o’ 40,000 unscreened hounes in selected rural areas with DDT emulsion. Elach crew will be assigned 750 houses to be completed in three months. At the end of that period the area will be covered again and each house will be given another ■praying. Applied to the walls and reUInrs of houses. DDT emulsion kills all adult mosquitoes thst light on them for approximately 12 weeks. Under such attack the mosquito will be easy prey, for DDT emulsion la not a repellent, and the mosquito, unaware of its lethal power, will not hesitate to light where it has been sprayed And to light is fatal, for DDT acts Hs a nervous-system poison that Is sure to kill. And how it kills! When mosquitoes touch a wall or ceiling sprayed with a soluUon of DDT. they show no signs of being poisoned for about 20 min- utfs. Then they become nervous and agitated, take off abruptly, fly about in erratic, drunken cin les and finally, after a hinge of five to 20 minutes, •irop to the flimr Paralyzed and un able to fly again, they die several hours later. These rt-actions are so typical that laboratory workers refer tn them ;is the *‘DDTs." Tbs lTOporUM»c.e of the demonstra- tlon to SouUr Uaminia* where surveys have shown that as high as 46 per cent of the population In certain se- _,lected arenas have malaria, cannot be overestimated. DDT may prove to be 11m* answer to our malaria control problem. It is especially significant In view of the fact that many soldiers returning from overseas will be car riers of malaria and tn counties where mosquitoes are plentiful serious out breaks of the disease might occur. The demonstrattou attack will be carefully che< ked for results, to ascer tain the effectiveness of DDT in eliminating the malaria mosquito and reducing the incidence of the disease, A group of public spirited citizens, soon to issue the first edition of The Clamden News,” a publication to go to the men and women of Kershaw County now in senrlce. met at the Camden Library Wedn^day afternoon to. elect officers.
