Ay dear VietLaore: 
Y»o h:-;VQ just received from E. P. Taylor, 
Director of iixtension 77orA, Tucson, ,tirizona, a letter 
indicating that damage by fruiti-eating bii^s is still 
being experienced and that relief is desired. If poss- 
ible you should get in touch v/ith kr. Taylor and inves- 
tigjite the comi^laint. Hequest is for the poison formula 
used by Holt, but it is inadvisable to give this out un- 
til peinits for aggressive action against the migrator^^ 
birds concerned are issued. Whether permits are issued 
v/ill depend upon ^^-our findings and recommendations, '{alm- 
bach hiis just returned from Louisiana and reports a ver^'' 
interesting and very successful trip. 
Bincerely yours. 
ja^ssistant Biologist*
