Cover has slight wear and soiling. Maj. Emory C. Cushing, SnC, an entomologist recruited from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), was the Army's liaison for research cond…ucted by the USDA at its Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine laboratory in Orlando, Florida. History reiterates how insects and the diseases they carry have changed the course of wars. The role of insects in limiting production of foods, feed, and fiber becomes an acute problem during periods of war. Farseeing military surgeons, aware of the part insects play in the outcome of wars, made possible the planning of research programs in entomology. Agricultural leaders realized that agricultural production and its protection were essential to the winning of the war and that insect control was vital to any program of increased production. The successful conclusion of these programs assured ample food supplies and enabled the Allied forces to press forward to victory without the hitherto constant attrition of manpower caused by insect-borne diseases. This was the first war in which entomologists had a favorable opportunity to demonstrate their ability to prevent disease caused by insects. Their development of insecticides to control insects attacking man, animals, and agricultural crops was rated by leading scientists as second in importance only to the discovery of atomic fission.
