He said that the DDT kill is vastly overstated, that insecticides have been blamed for things they never caused, and that the alleged build-up of DDT in river estuaries and oceans is "a lot of bologna." Dr. Cross said that new scientific testing equipment recently obtained has made possible proof of the above assertions. He said that through data accumulation, "we have given good reason why we think environment is not being hurt by use of pesticides." He said the tests made of 160 water areas in Southeastern Massa- chusetts; on Cape Cod and in Ply- mouth County shcJwed that there was less than 10 parts per trillion of DDT and the same with dieldrin, one of the pesticides used by cran- berry growers.
