Where to Get Materials INTRODUCTION This guide is released at a time when the issue of fluoridation of community water supplies has become a matter of national concern. The wisdom of proceeding with a health measure which has been proved beyond reasonable doubt to be safe and effective is contested in many communities throughout the nation. Many failures of public understanding and action have been experienced. From failure and from success, lessons are available for the learning and for this reason representative community experiences are presented. Through this opportunity for knowing something of the actions and methods of the opponents of fluoridation, the behavior of some persons and groups in your community may be anticipated. More important, through examination of localities where favorable action has been taken, the key to public and official education and understanding may be recog­ nized and used. Fluoridation is of national concern, on the basis of more than simply widespread geographic distribution of the debate. Medicine, dentistry, public health and engineering have overwhelmingly supported the practice of fluoridation on evidence within their competence to judge. But there is by virtue of the attack upon the integrity and authority of these profes­ sions the quite serious fact of a faith at risk which has long known public trust. When to this is added an identical attack upon officially constituted health bodies the situation borders on the absurd. The health of children is not the least reason why this is a matter of national as well as local concern. Three out of four American children fail to receive this valuable trace element in amounts sufficient for the normal development of healthy teeth resistant to decay. This failure can be ascribed to public and official apathy, inadequate community planning, and an opposition answered in the record but unanswered as far as the public understands. To the correction of such failure, this guide has been organized for the use of community lay and professional leaders in this effort toward the public health. DUNCAN W.

  • Sefton Delmer BLACK BOOMERANG
    Sefton Delmer "I do not think my unit produced more than three items of printed pornography during the whole war, not because I was squeamish, but simply because I did not think the effort involved on our part would be justified by the subversive effect on the Germans." "Do I regret this pornography which I perpetrated during my few years as a temporary government servant ? I certainly do not on morale grounds. As far as I was concerned, anything was in order which helped to defeat Hitler. And I don't regret the Chef's forays into erotic propaganda. it helped him get launched much more quickly than he would have been without it. Later I closed down his station and their was no more pornography on those that preceded him". (ie Soldatensender) Read the article here "H.M.G.'s secret pornographer" BLACK BOOMERANG THE WORLD WAR 2 TOP SECRET BRITISH BLACK PROPAGANDA OPERATION. This is the true story of The British Black Propaganda Operation in World War Two. Sefton Delmer had an extraordinary ability to empathise and understand the German mind. He had been born in Berlin son of an Australian Professor in English at Berlin University and spent his early schooldays during The Great War as a student of the Friedrichs Werdersche Gymnasium. In 1917 his family were repatriated to England. Later after a degree at Oxford he retuned to Berlin to become Berlin correspondent for the Daily Express. It was in this capacity as a newsman, he first met Ernst Roehm head of the Nazi storm troopers.

    THE FOOD PLANTS OF SCALE INSECTS (COCCID^). By T. D. A, COCKEEBLL. Euloviolos^isf of (he Nerv Mexico Affricnltural Experiment Staiiou. Int)-o(luctio)i. — It is not j)reteiuled that the following summary is complete; to make it so would involve a much more elaborate search through the scattered literatiire than the writer has now opportunity for; and even then, a few months would inevitably bring new records, and miike it incomplete again. It is, however, hoped that the sum- mary will be of service, as bringing together the great majority of the records, and indicating to the horticulturist what scale insects he may expect to find on any given i)lant or group of plants. While it can not be regarded as valid negative evidence, it presents a large mass of tixcts which are of great importance from several points of view. Two prac- tical points may be emphasized—one, the unexpected number of coccids found on many of the cultivated trees and shrubs; and the other, the frequency with which species dangerous to iruit trees will occur on ornamental plants, which may be carried from place to place and be the means of disseminating the scales. In preparing the summary, it has been found in many cases neces- sary to correct the names of the plants given by writers on Coccidii?. It is much to be desired that entomologists should be more careful to correctly cite the names of plants they have occasion to mention. A card catalogue of host plants of Coccida^ is in preparation, and may be seen at the United States Department of Agriculture.

I'm not sure whether to celebrate the 50th issue of the newsletter, or hold off until the next issue, which will represent 25 years of Fly Times! I choose to do both! (Celebration ensues...). I thank everyone for sending in such interesting articles, as always – I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed putting it together! Please let me encourage all of you to consider contributing articles that may be of interest to the Diptera community for the next issue. Fly Times offers a great forum to report on your research activities and to make requests for taxa being studied, as well as to report interesting observations about flies, to discuss new and improved methods, to advertise opportunities for dipterists, to report on or announce meetings relevant to the community, etc., with all the associated digital images you wish to provide. This is also a great place to report on your interesting (and hopefully fruitful) collecting activities! Really anything fly-related is considered. I also want to thank Chris Borkent for again assembling the list of Diptera citations since the last Fly Times, and to announce that Chris will be taking on this responsibility from here on, at least until he wants to stop! The electronic version of the Fly Times continues to be hosted on the North American Dipterists Society website at http://www.nadsdiptera.org/News/FlyTimes/Flyhome.htm.
