Abstract
The hearings in Madison, Wisconsin, on the question of the persisting residues of DDT becoming one of the world's most serious pollution problems, involved 27 days of testimony from 32 witnesses, filled nearly 3000 pages of transcript and included 208 exhibits. The hearings adjourned 21 May 1969 and a decision on the use of the pesticide in Wisconsin is pending.Keywords
