NEW FLIT OIL MAY REPLACE DDT 
a 
"Quick Henry, the Flit''. Remember this advertising slogan. Then DDT was 





discovered and put an end to Flit and other old-fashioned insect control methods. 
Flit is Back! It has been placed on the market by Humble Oil. They call it 
FLIT MLO. It is a larvicidal oil and gives protective control of mosquitoes 
men alivtheir’ aquatic*stages. “It tis notla Ghenical poison; therefore, harmless 
to fish, wildlife and vegetation, 
As Humble says in their advertisement for FLIT MLO, "Your next mosquito bite 
should remind you of a grim fact: The mosquito is developing resistance to 
‘Most insecticides faster then new ones can be invented." It looks as if we 
-will be seeing the end of die-offs of fish and wildlife following mosquito 
Spray programs throughout the country. At least one company is solving one 
of conservation's most controversial problems. Conservationists everywhere 
Should acquaint city and state officials to the call "Quzek Humble” $227%Get

NORTH CASCADES NATIONAL PARK 
—$——— NS PARR 
Up until a few weeks ago, the chances were bright that Congress would appr ove 
a North Cascade National Park this year, 
Please write the Committee Chairman, Rep. Wayne Aspinall (House Office Bldg., 
Washington, D.C.) to urge that he move on this legislation (preferably H.R. 
12139) without delay. Ask your Congressman to ask him also. It is time to 
finish the work on the North Cascades begun by President Kennedy and Presi- 
ident vohnson,. 
Remember: The forests, valleys, and meadows of the North Cascades are only 
Safe from logging, dams, and mining in a national park. Why should this area 
have to wait any longer for park protection?
