By Abraham (Chick) Kazen, Jr., U.S. Congressman,
As our House Armed Services Investigations Subcommittee continued its inquiry into the deaths of two army trainees at Ft. Jackson, South Carolina, word came of senseless abuse of 150 Marine Camp

The new commandant of the Marine Corps has promised to take prompt action, and has commented that other drill instructors at San Diego are %Tnad as hell’" about the mis-treatment of the young Marines. General Robert H. Barrow has also said “I shall be very forgiving when a professional does something unacceptable.”
The army had court-martialed the sergents and punished them, but our wanted to was done officers for training. I believe Secretary Alexander and the generals understood that we, as legislators and citizens, expect no toleration of recruit abuse harassment.

Scientists are working on an improved pesticide, but until their
efforts succeed, Mirex is the best proven insecticide. Fire ants not only disrupt normal agricultural practices but injure farm a animals and can inflict painful stings on humans. Parents report the aggressive ants attack their children at play. Until a better weapon can be found, I believe we need to allow restricted use of Mirex.
