Greater War On Flies Urged This Year Farmers were given another reason for a war on flies this summer in a report 'sued today by livestock health authorities. Flies, the report states, have been found to be carriers of the deadly cattle disease, anaplas..io-sfc, anaplas..io-sfc, which is causing heavy cattle cat-tle losses in a number of Western states. . "Recent tests show that horse flies which suck the blood of cattle carrying this disease, can readily transmit it to healthy cattle," says the report released here today by the American Foundation for Animal Health. "Anaplasmosis is caused by a minute parasite which attacks the blood cells of Cattls, causing severe anemia. Cattle which contract the disease remain carriers, car-riers, and during the horsefly and hornf ly season such 'carrier' animals ani-mals can endanger all healthy cattle in the locality. Persons not familiar with proper sanitary and dis'nf ection practices in vaccinating vac-cinating may also spread the disease. di-sease. There is no known cure, so rigid preventive measures are doubly important. A vigorous campaign against biting flies at this time should be especially helpful."

I didn't want to write to you and tell you he was safe until he was through flying and but of my hands. I said good-bye to him a few weeks ago and it won't be too long before hell be safely back in the United States. Perhaps you have thought Jay was too timid to be a gunner, but I say with full honesty that wouldn't have traded him for anybody in the 8th Air Force and it was with sincere regret tnat I saw nim go. Jay was always thoroughly dependable de-pendable and always smiling and willing to do any job asked of him. He never exhibited that aisgrunuea air tnat so many soldiers snow, and he never complained com-plained although he probably often had reason to. The crew nicknamed him "Moonbeam" because he was always smiling, I just wanted to drop you a note and tell you that I'm returning your son without a scratch. He's come close to death often but came through unflinching. He was a great credit to my crew and the army air force. Thanks so much for "loaning" him to us to do our part in completing the European war. Your son reflects credit upon you his Father and Mother. Hope he has a most enjoyable leave with you.
