ban on DDT to prohibit it for
any use in the U. -S. A. If this
happens, Borlaug warned, tlu'y
almost certainly will slari a.
w'orldwide pmpaganda campaign
to have it banned everywhere? in
the world.
“This must not he permitted
to happen until an even l>oro ef-;
foctive and safe insecticide is
available," he declared “As soon:
as DDT is successfully banned,
there will be a push for the ban
ning of all chlorinated hydro- j
Ct'irbons, then, in order, the or-,
ganic .phosphates and eaphonate'
insecticides. Once the task is fin-;

the U. S. A. w'erc to be completely

IT'S A LITTLE
RED PILL!
Can you tell what a medicine is by just
looking at it? It's pretty difficult considering
that there are dozens of shapes, a full spectrum
of colors and hundreds of markings for pills
and capsules. The possible combinations arc
endless.
Knowing about medicines is the most im
portant part of being a pharmacist. We take
this responsibility and challenge seriously and
casefuXl^ study about' eoch new dtug as it is
I released to ug for public use. But, when some
one stops in and says, '*You know. It was a lit
tle red pill/' it is not an easy matter to know
exactly what medicine H is.
