Of Milk By
DDT Reduced
WASHINGTON L'PI' - Gov
ernmrnt scientists said today that
the da-gcr of milk contamination
by insect killers such as DDT is

tion was a problem "worth work
ing on."
Credit Two Developments
The scientists credited two de
velopments with cutting down the
risk of milk being contaminated
by use of the pesticides on cat
tle feeds and in storage barns.
They said the FDA has warned
the dairy industry it would crack
down on any sales of impure milk
in i.-.terstate commerce and an
tducational drive among dairy
men ako has been effective.
The FDA report Monday said
milk samplings conducted in 1VS8.
showed a definite reduction over
the previous three years in the
incidence of milk tainted with the
insect killers.
Scientists said there probably
has been a further dip since last
year.

the chemicals were found in 28
