EDITORIAL COMMENTS
DON’T SELL AMERICAN SCIENCE SHORT!
With the widespread clamor we hear these days to the
effect that Sputnik emphasizes the inadequacy of American
scientific research and development, the average man in the
street might well imagine that the Russian advantage ex-
tends to all areas of science. This is not so. Whatever tem-
porary advantage Mr. Khrushchev’s scientists may have in
:he matter of missiles and earth satellites is damatized by
their death-dealing implications. We were heartened by
news — delivered without fanfare or international repercus-
sions — of a breakthrough scored by American scientists in
the area of life extension and preservation.
This captured no headlines, although well it might. The
American Sterilizer Company of Erie, Pennsylvania, quietly
announced it was manufacturing equipment for raising ani-
mals — rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs — under absolutely
perfect conditions; in short, germ-free life! Their equipment
permits the animal to pass from the parent breeding it into
an extended life in which the atmosphere and complete en-
vironment are sterile. No contamination or infection inter-
feres with the normal growth and development of the crea-
ture.
Cattle lice usually cause their
worst damage during the winter
when the cows’ long, thick hair
provides them with lots of pro-
tection. These pests rob ani-
mals of the ability to produce
milk and meat efficiently and
prevent normal growth.
But farmers don’t have to take
this loss sitting down, says F. M.
Fuller, extension entomologist.
Something can be done about it.
Lice m ay be controlled on
beef cattle and non-lactating
dairy animals by applying 0.5%
toxaphene, 0.5% methoxychlor,
.03%lindane, or .006% rotenone
as either a spray or dip, or with
.025% pyrethrin as a spray,
points out Fuller. However, he
warns, toxaphene should not be
applied within four weeks of
slaughter.
Lice on lactating dairy cattle
may be controlled with 0.1%
pyrethrin plus 1% piperonyl
butoxide or with .006% rotenone.
Either compound may be applied
as a spray or dip.
The cattle should be checked
two weeks after spraying, ad-
vises the entomologist. A re-
peat spraying may be necessary
to kill any lice that may have
escaped the first application or
which have hatched since that
time.

This roughly approximates in scientific significance the
splitting of the atom — it is a notable break-through.
Its application is already foreordained in a score of ways.
Laboratories using animals that are born and nurtured under
germ-free conditions can eliminate several variable factors
in their tests. This will result in an economy in the use of
such animals since some laboratories use thousands a month!
The time span for many experiments can be reduced from
years to months, or even weeks!
It has vast implications in the field of organic culture; ex-
periments in controlled environment, dust and smoke control.
Not least significant is the fact that American Sterilizer is
making it possible by means of its equipment for individuals
and laboratories, large and small, to exploit this “break-
through” to the fullest.
That’s why we say — don’t sell American science short!
LOTHAR TEETOR, FORMER SUB-CABINET OFFICER
in the Eisenhower Administration, now an industrial execu-
tive in Hagerstown, Ind., says we can so cut taxes, and we’d
better do it as “we are drifting into socialism”.
As spokeman for the Indiana Chamber of Commerce he
told the House Ways and Means committee: “All we have to
do is tc cut out thenon-essentials so we can afford the essen-
tials.” We wish Mr. Teetor were a Congressman, himself.
