Council Says DDT Bon Is
Critical Blow to Growers
Memphis, Tenn. — "We are
astonished that Mr.
Ruckelshaus would rule against
the use of DDT on cotton con-
trary to the recommendation of
the hearings examiner, who,
after seven months of hearings,
found that the benefits far
outweighed the difficulties," the
president of the National Cotton
Council commented today on
the Environmental Protection
Agency's action banning DDT.
Charles F. Youngker,
Buckeye, Ariz., said the action
is a critical blow to cotton
growers who are already hard
pressed to lower production
costs.
The order and general opinion
banning DDT as of December
31, 1972, were released
yesterday by EPA Ad-
ministrator William D.
Ruckelshaus.
"This means that in order to
control pests in a large part of
the Cotton Belt, cotton growers
will have to turn to more ex-
pensive insecticides, to those
that iire hazardous to man,
animals, bees and other
beneficial insects, and that will
have to be used about twice as
often. We are already en-
countering some of these dif-
ficulties in Arizona as a result of
an earlier ban on DDT by the
state," Mr. Youngker added.
He also pointed out that
alternative insecticides delay
crop maturity, an important
factor in the long growing
season required for cotton.
"We are as concerned as
anyone about protecting the
environment. Cotton producers
are spending nearly $2.5 million
a year on research to find ways
to control insects biologically or
with greatly reduced quantities
of insecticides.
"But realization of these
goals is still not in sight and
setbacks like this certainly are
not incentive to growers to
continue the risks incurred in
raising cotton," he observed.
Mr. Youngker said DDT is
used, alone or in combination
with other insecticides, on more
than 35 percent of the cotton
acreage from Texas to the
Atlantic coast. It is used ex-
tensively to control the two
most destructive pests — the
boll weevil and bollowrm.
In the Lower Rio Grande
Valley it is of major importance
in checking the tobacco bud-
worm — a pest which resists all
currently registered cotton
insecticides

AUSTIN - Legislative
lenders are predicting a quick
end to their longdreaded special
session which began last
Wednesday.
Gov. Preston Smith caught
nearly everybody by surprise
when he announced he has
discovered an additional $125
million in federal funds which
can be applied te welfare.
The federal windfall for social
services to the needy was
Smith's secret weapon to
finance 1973 state operations
without nead for any new taxes.
Most lawmakers had con-
cluded he would recommend an
eight months' budget for
welfare to make it possible to
avoid another tax bill before he
leaves office.
The governor proposed a $4.1
billion budget for 1973 ($818
mmisn from soisrs] r^v£nue).
Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes and
House Speaker Rayford Price
say they are optimistic about
chances of finishing the budget-
writing job in two to three
Submission of other matters
would keep the special session
going longer, although Smith
has indicated he is reluctant to
broaden the call. A proposed
new code of ethics has been
drafted, and there will be
pressure on the governor to
submit it.
Welfare Commissioner
Raymond Vowell told the joint
finance committee he fully
expects to get written con-
firmation from Health,
Education and Welfare officials
next week that the additional
welfare funds will be available.
Comptroller Robert S.
Calvert, who must certify
foreseeable revenue before
can be obligated by th
legislature, wants fi:
evidence the $125 million will
availbie if he permits it to
counted in 1973 budget-wri
If Calvert declines te eertil,
lawmakers almost certai
will turn again to the
months' welfare budget
