ABOUT 
 NTIS 
 
 The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) is an agency within the United States 
 Department of Commerce dedicated to the international exchange of scientific and 
 technical information. It is the largest clearinghouse and dissemination network for U.S. 
 Government-sponsored research and development, and draws upon other public and 
 private information sources throughout the world. The NTIS collection exceeds one 
 million titles, with over 150,000 documents from sources outside the United States. 
 
 NTIS operates as a self-supporting public service to store and channel technical 
 information in the public domain. Bibliographic data is maintained on-line and compre- 
 hensive listings are printed of all documents in the NTIS collection. The public may 
 quickly locate summaries of interest using on-line search or by consulting various 
 published searches prepared by information specialists at NTIS. The desired documents 
 (in full text) can then be ordered in papercopy or microfiche. NTIS mails about 2,300 
 information products daily as one of the world's largest processors of specialty 
 information. 
 
 As a part of a new initiative to aid economic development, NTIS, under the sponsorship 
 of the U.S. Agency for International Development, has become actively involved in the 
 acquisition and dissemination of appropriate technology information for developing 
 countries. 
 
 This joint NTIS/AID international program already consists of a worldwide information 
 network. Some 30 cooperating agencies in developing countries around the world collect 
 technical information, put the documents into the NTIS system, and use NTIS services to 
 meet their own development needs. The NTIS network is a major clearinghouse for the 
 two-way flow of appropriate technology information; a worldwide sharing of technical 
 information which will continue to grow in the future.

 16. Abstract (Limit: 200 words) 
 
 This bibliography is an edited search of "appropriate technology" citations from 
 the NTIS Bibliographic Data File. Over 2000 citations with abstracts are included. 
 Appropriate Technology has been defined, in the context of this publication, 
 as information which can be adapted and applied to improve the quality of life 
 of low-income groups. This does not refer to "trickle-down" benefits but to direct 
 benefits which foster self-reliance and a sense of dignity among the poor. 
 The information, therefore, is broad in scope covering many fields but pertaining 
 to one or more of the following categories: Smaller-scale technologies, 
 Labor-intensive technologies, Low-cost technologies, Revived technologies, 
 Improved Traditonal technologies , Alternative techniques, Useful Social and 
 Management technologies and Selected Modern technologies adapted to the local 
 needs amd enviroament .

 Dear Colleague: 
 
 The Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean of the Agency for 
 International Development is proud to introduce this new edition of 
 Appropriate Technology Information for Developing Countries produced by 
 the National Technical Information Service CNTIS) of the Department 
 of Commerce. 
 
 This publication grows out of a regional project, "Science and 
 Technology Information Transfer," and represents a cooperative effort 
 by AID and NTIS with the collaboration of Volunteers in Technical 
 Assistance (VITA). 
 
 This edition supersedes the first appropriate technology bibliography 
 entitled, "Selected Appropriate Technologies for Developing Countries" and 
 contains more than a thousand newly-acquired appropriate technology 
 citations recently entered into the NTIS computerized data file. 
 
 We trust this new information will be relevant to the needs and 
 available resources of the poor in developing countries. 
 
 Most of the information listed is available directly from NTIS and 
 will receive wide dissemination through the AID/NTIS international 
 information network. We hope that you will find the bibliography a 
 useful reference guide and that this information will contribute to the 
 solving of development problems in Latin America and the Caribbean. 
 
 Sincerely,

INTRODUCTION 
 
 This publication, Appropriate Technology Information for 
 Developing Countries was produced to inform the international 
 development community about selected scientific and technical 
 information available from NTIS which can be transferred, adapted, 
 and applied to solve local development problems around the 
 world. The selection was made from the vast NTIS data file, 
 with over one million citations, using a broad definition of 
 "appropriate technology." 
 
 The entire question of the appropriateness of a given 
 technology is a much debated and complex issue. Often it is 
 narrowly defined as a small-scale, labor-intensive, low-cost 
 technology which makes maximum use of local skills and resources. 
 The concept of appropriate technology, however, is more 
 sophisticated than the above definition implies. It is more a 
 way of thinking about development problems than an actual set 
 of specific technologies. It requires that development planners 
 not value technology as a positive "good-in-itself " but assess 
 its value in relation to other aspects of life. It requires 
 that the technological problem be considered not solely as an 
 economic problem but must be seen from a larger, more holistic 
 perspective taking into account the multi-leveled needs of human 
 beings. Implicit in the concept is the idea of responsibility 
 to select, modify, and create technical solutions that will 
 improve the actual quality of life with minimal negative impact. 
 
 Appropriate technology has become increasingly important 
 in development planning during the 1970' s and is now often 
 associated with technologies best suited to meet the basic needs 
 of low-income communities. This linkage grew out of the reali- 
 zation that some of the techniques and solutions being transferred 
 to developing countries were causing serious social and environ- 
 mental problems, especially among the poor. This has caused 
 
 VII 
 
USAID to focus much of its assistance toward helping the lowest 
 income communities in developing countries. From this perspective 
 appropriate technology has been viewed as a technology which is 
 adapted or created to improve directly the quality of life of 
 the low-income groups. This does not refer to "trickle down" 
 benefits but to direct benefits which foster self-reliance and 
 human dignity among the poor. 
 
 Taking into account USAID ' s priority of aiding low income 
 groups, the selections for this publication were made using the 
 following general criteria: 
 
 1) Smaller-Scale Technologies 
 
 This is exemplified by construction and farm equipment, 
 manufacturing processes and scaled-down industrial 
 plants. Other examples might be a report on a village- 
 level cement plant or information about hand tractors 
 for small farmers. 
 
 2) Labor-intensive Technologies 
 
 Reports were chosen about devices and processes which 
 generate employment and rely upon available labor and 
 materials instead of scarce capital for start-up and 
 operation. 
 
 3) L ow-Cost Technologies 
 
 This includes inexpensive and village- level technologies 
 most appropriate for economically marginal groups in 
 both urban and rural areas. Examples include hand 
 pumps, rabbit raising, simple methods of candle manu- 
 facturing, etc. 
 
 4) Revived Technologies 
 
 This refers to products and processes once used in the 
 industrialized countries which may still be economically 
 
 VIII 
 
beneficial in developing countries. For example, 
 reports have been included on wind mills, certain 
 machine tools, a variety of plant requirements and 
 industry profiles. 
 
 5) I mproved Traditional Technologies 
 
 One example might be ox carts built to traditional 
 dimensions given better tires, wheel bearings, and a 
 suspension system to improve load capacity and dura- 
 bility. Another might be a fishing cooperative based 
 on indigenous management models. 
 
 6) Alternatives and Know-How 
 
 This includes a broad spectrum of information, from 
 proven age-old practices to modern alternative 
 approaches to problem- solving. An example of this 
 would be the Chinese Barefoot Doctor's Manual, a hand- 
 book featuring acupuncture and traditional herbal 
 remedies, as well as modern medical practices. 
 
 7) Useful Social and Management Technologies 
 
 This involves relevant information on health systems, 
 education, cooperatives, small business administration, 
 etc. 
 
 8) Selected Modern Technologies 
 
 An appropriate solution to a problem often requires the 
 most sophisticated technology. An example would be 
 the latest agricultural research used to develop a 
 special disease-resistant strain of rice, solar energy 
 used to power a remote radio station, or program planning 
 methods which can be adapted to a developing country 
 context to meet priority needs. 
 In working with the above outline, we have compiled a broad 
 scope of information which can be appropriate when applied or 
 adapted to specific situations. As previously stated, appro- 
 priate technology is not so much a certain kind of technology 
 as a process of choosing and implementing the right solutions 
 
 IX 
 
for specific problems. In the last analysis, the appropriateness 
 of the technical information in this publication will ultimately 
 be determined by how well it is adapted and applied to the local 
 context. The responsibility for its creative use must ultimately 
 rest on the wisdom and values of the user. 
 
 We hope you find these reports helpful and would appreciate 
 hearing any suggestions about how the bibliography might be 
 improved. Please let us know if you find certain documents 
 especially appropriate and useful in your development efforts.

 The paper addresses two questions: (1) ' 
 What is the most desirable form of sani- 
 tizing chemical for use in rural water 
 supplies; and (2) What is the best over- 
 all means of getting this sanitizing agent 
 into rural water supplies. Several chem- 
 icals and hypochlorinators are described 
 and evaluated. In conclusion, a low-cost, 
 dependable feeding device suitable for 
 use in disinfecting marginal waters in 
 the rural areas of developing countries 
 is presented. The operation and main- 
 tenance of this device is easy for the 
 unskilled labor in these areas; no so- 
 phisticated power source is needed to 
 provide continuous, automatic opera- 
 tion; the device uses a readily available, 
 commercial chlorine chemical that can 
 be economically shipped, stored, and 
 used at these points of need. An ap- 
 pendix is also included giving technical 
 specifications and performance data.

 To help the user locate the desired information, 
 there are several indexes at the back of the book. 
 
 The Subject Index classifies the documents by 
 their key words. Only the starred descriptors and 
 identifiers, however, will appear in the index. The 
 above citation can be found under * Rural Areas, 
 * Water Treatment, and 'Developing Countries in 
 the Subject Index. This, unfortunately, limits the 
 usefulness of the index, but space does not permit 
 the cross referencing of the complete set of key 
 words. We suggest looking through all the 
 abstracts to be certain that you locate all the 
 citations in your area of interest. 
 
 In addition to the Subject Index, the Corporate 
 Author, and Author indexes reference the organi- 
 zation and person who wrote the report. The 
 above example can be found under World Water 
 Resources, Inc. in the Corporate Author Index and 
 under William E. Hanford and Alfred Long in the 
 Author Index. 
 
 Most of the documents in this publication can be 
 ordered in both papercopy and microfiche from 
 NTIS. To order a document, look up the price code 
 listed in the upper right hand corner of each cita- 
 tion (see example above) and follow carefully the 
 ordering instructions on page 383 . All documents 
 must be ordered by accession number and not 
 by title. 
 
 If a document is not available from NTIS, you 
 must contact the source directly to acquire the 
 information. If not available from NTIS, please do 
 not send NTIS the order. 
 
 Of special interest to the entrepreneur is the 
 section entitled Industry Profiles. These profiles 
 are a series of professional analyses intended to 
 promote the development of small-scale industry 
 in developing countries. This section has its own 
 subject index and the profiles do not appear in any 
 of the three indexes previously mentioned. Please 
 turn to page xii for further information.

SPECIAL SECTION ON INDUSTRY PROFILES 
 
 In 1966 and 1967, the Industry Profiles Program 
 of the United States Agency for International 
 Development published a series of professional 
 analyses intended to promote the growth of 
 industry in developing countries. 
 
 Each profile gives basic information on a small- 
 or medium-sized plant in a specific industry. It 
 discusses the features of the industry and its 
 marketing problems, shows the approximate 
 amount of capital needed to establish a plant of 
 specified capacity, and gives an estimate of the 
 annual costs, by categories, of running the plant 
 at full capacity. It also provides a workflow dia- 
 gram and plant layout as well as supplementary 
 reference information on technical journals, 
 articles, books, patents, and professional services. 
 
 Potential entrepreneurs can, by examining the 
 profiles for the industries in which they are inter- 
 ested, take the initial step in deciding whether to 
 embark on particular projects. In some cases the 
 next steps may be simple, in others they may be 
 complicated, requiring full-scale feasibility studies 
 by experts. But whatever the situation, it should be 
 remembered that the profiles are not a substitute 
 for the specific studies, whether simple or elabo- 
 rate, that should precede the actual establishment 
 of new plants. 
 
 Before an investment is made in a plant, a 
 feasibility study should be conducted. This may 
 require skilled economic and engineering experi- 
 ence. Here are some questions that must be 
 answered. What is the present demand for the 
 product, and how is it now being satisfied? Will 
 the market absorb the production of the new 
 plant? Will the estimated sales price and quality 
 of the product make it competitive? What is the 
 marketing and distribution plan and to whom will 
 the product be sold? How will the plant be 
 financed? Has a realistic time schedule been 
 developed for construction delivery of equipment, 
 obtaining materials and supplies, training person- 
 nel and start-up time for the plant? Have arrange- 
 ments been made to obtain needed materials and 
 supplies? Are trained personnel available? Do 
 adequate transportation, storage, power, com- 
 munications, fuel, water, and other facilities exist? 
 Has a sound plant for equipment, design, con- 
 struction, and operations been developed? Have 
 proper management controls for design, produc- 
 tion, quality-control, and other factors been 
 developed? Will the industry fit into the develop- 
 ment plans for the area? What will be the social 
 and biological impact? Will the industry be envi- 
 ronmentally sound? Most important of all, will the 
 industry contribute to the local quality of life? 
 
 Although each profile provides a systematic 
 guide for making cost estimates, profile data has 
 been calculated on the basis of operating experi- 
 ences and costs in the United States during the 
 late 1960s. Since prices and conditions vary 
 greatly in different countries, these figures must 
 be adapted to local production experience and 
 costs.

 A comprehensive long-term investigation of corro- 
 sion of 52 metals immersed in seawater and in 
 fresh water, suspended at mean-tide level, and ex- 
 posed to marine and inland tropical atmospheres 
 has been completed for exposure periods of up to 
 16 years. A series of reports on specific metal 
 groups has already been published. This is a final 
 report on the project; it presents tabulated results 
 for all metal-environment combinations included in 
 the study, both for simple plates and bimetallic 
 couples. Many of these are previously unreported 
 data. Time-corrosion curves for all single-metal ex- 
 posures not previously reported on to completion 
 are included; these are for 16 wrought and cast 
 ferrous metals in two atmospheres and 7 nonfer- 
 rous metals in all five environments. Because of 
 their basic value for comparing corrosiveness of 
 environments and for evaluating effectiveness of 
 alloys, curves for all the commercially pure metals 
 are presented for all five environments. The final 
 steady-state corrosion rate is a most useful value 
 for estimating expected metal life; this value (R sub 
 c) has been established for most metals in each 
 environment and is included with all curves and 
 tabulated data.

 Ferro-cement is a composite material consisting of 
 multiple layers of wire mesh impregnated with a 
 cement mortar. Steel rods may be sandwiched in 
 the center to give added strength, and to shape 
 the mesh before application of the mortar. Selec- 
 tion of materials can vary considerably. Investiga- 
 tion of the influence of wire orientation on the fa- 
 tigue strength of ferro-cement was undertaken in 
 this study. Tests were also conducted to determine 
 the effect on fatigue life of voids in the specimens 
 caused by poor penetration of the mortar.

 Indirect reuse of wastewaters in drinking water 
 supplies is common practice in industrialized 
 states today. The investigations reported upon 
 have been directed towards improvements upon 
 existing techniques more applicable to the tropical 
 and savanna developing country. High costs and 
 technical difficulties have been encountered in the 
 removal of nitrogen and low level organics. In this 
 study, investigations have been conducted into ni- 
 trogen stripping by photosynthetic algal growth, 
 using the nitrogen as a nutrient with subsequent 
 algae harvest from ponds, and low level organics 
 reduction by (a) powdered activated carbon treat- 
 ment and (b) semi-rapid filtration. Several process- 
 es including high rate treatment oxidation ponds, 
 dissolved air flotation, roughing filtration, photo- 
 synthetic nitrogen stripping ponds, powdered acti- 
 vated carbon adsorption, dual-media filtration and 
 chlorination were developed and specifically ap- 
 plied to domestic wastewater reclamation for 
 drinking water. These were incorporated into two 
 process streams, one using activated carbon for 
 low level organics removal and the other semi- 
 rapid filtration.

 The memorandum describes an application of the 
 techniques of system analysis to educational plan- 
 ning. Particular emphasis is placed on evaluating 
 the usefulness of technology in education, espe- 
 cially television. In contrast to most analyses of 
 educational technology, the present study (1) con- 
 siders the technology as it interrelates with the 
 entire educational system in which it is to function, 
 and (2) proposes alternative means to attain simi- 
 lar improvements in that system. By comparing the 
 cost of alternative ways to attain similar improve- 
 ments, the study shows that the cost of technologi- 
 cal improvements is approximately the same as 
 that of improvements achieved through more con- 
 ventional means.

 Housing policies for urban low-income families in 
 underdeveloped countries have typically stressed 
 the public supply of fully serviced standard housing 
 units, but these policies are mostly unsuccessful. 
 In practice, a large proportion of the demand for 
 shelter has been overflowing into so-called squat- 
 ter settlements that are developing at the periph- 
 ery of most large sized cities of the emerging na- 
 tions. The paper discusses a housing services 
 policy which promisee \t oe effective for these 
 families. The financial component of the policy is 
 studied.

 Ferrocement is a composite material made up of 
 cement mortar reinforced with a mesh of steel 
 wire. Its non-homogeneity results in material char- 
 acteristics which are peculiarly its own. In this 
 study, the ferrocement specimens tested varied in 
 the type of wire reinforcement used, as well as in 
 the water content of the mortar. Stress versus 
 cycles to failure curves were developed, and com- 
 parisons were made between the curves of differ- 
 ent types of specimens. Bending and tensile 
 strength tests were conducted after cyclic loading 
 in order to gain insights on the effects of precy- 
 cling. Finally, some comparisons were made which 
 related the data from this thesis to that of several 
 preceding studies.

 This paper is concerned largely with the back- 
 ground information necessary to the development 
 of a study on the skin penetration mechanisms 
 used by cercariae in their infection of vertebrate 
 hosts, including man. The author touched briefly 
 upon the disease -- its importance, distribution, 
 course in man, epidemiology, and control; the life 
 history of the parasite; and pertinent aspects of the 
 structure of skin and the schistosome cercaria. In a 
 subsequent report, the cercarcial penetration 
 mechanisms will be presented.

 domesticated animals, and to a limited lesser 
 extent man, resident in the coastal plain, mountain 
 valleys and highlands had been infected with cer- 
 tain insect-borne viruses. A record intensive study 
 was carried out in an area of ecological transition 
 to determine if the changes in bird, mammal biting 
 insect populations and their associated viruses 
 could be detected in primary and secondary for- 
 ests and nearby croplands and pastures over a 
 two-year period. Microbiological data are present-

 studies were conducted in primary and secondary 
 forests and associated clearings which are areas 
 of early ecological disturbance. Other studies were 
 performed in an area of great ecological disturb- 
 ance. The data show that the ecological changes 
 have altered populations of biting insects and influ- 
 ence the potential and actual risk of transmission 
 of arthropod-borne pathogens of man and domes-

 Disease causing agents are as real a part of tropi- 
 cal ecosystems as are the more conspicuous ver- 
 tebrate, invertebrate and plant members. Tropical 
 ecosystems are complex and man-induced modifi- 
 cation may lead to increased disease prevalence. 
 Prediction of disease problems related to ecologi- 
 cal perturbation rests on understanding the com- 
 position and function of the ecosystem. Changes 
 in populations of wild vertebrate reservoirs and 
 insect vectors are the key to changes in disease 
 incidence. The studies presented in this section 
 represent an effort to describe the bird and 
 mammal communities found in primary and sec- 
 ondary forests and associated agricultural clear- 
 ings. Important information about the occurrence 
 of certain pathogenic agents was also obtained.

 The purpose of this document is to provide guid- 
 ance in the design and cost analysis of solar heat- 
 ing systems for buildings and domestic hot water 
 (DHW). The nature of solar radiation, several types 
 of solar systems, storage devices, and architectur- 
 al considerations are among topics included. Cal- 
 culation methods are included for determining col- 
 lector size, storage size, simplified buidling and 
 DHW loads, value of fuel saved, and saving-invest- 
 ment ratios. The calculation procedure is based on 
 parametric curves for 'fraction of heating load sup- 
 plied by solar energy 'and several' rules of thumb' 
 for design. A series of 1 1 worksheets is used to 
 enable the engineer with no prior experience with 
 solar systems to accomplish a complete design 
 and cost analysis. With this information he can pre- 
 pare bidding and specification documents for the 
 job. Tables of solar insolation at various Navy sta- 
 tions, typical building heat loads, collector prices 
 by type, and storage tank prices are included. Two 
 example problems are worked for tube-in-sheet 
 collectors: one for space and DHW heating for a 
 single dwelling, and the other DHW supply for a 
 dispensary. Neither was found to be cost effective 
 when competing against present day prices for 
 natural gas. A directory of manufacturers and bib- 
 liography is also included. (Author)

 Solid wastes collection and disposal problems are 
 enormous and inadequacies are not only polluting 
 our land, air, and water, but are precipitating social, 
 economic, and political problems as well. It is as- 
 sumed that any design for solid waste manage- 
 ment must include resource recovery as an inte- 
 gral part of the system, but only within the limits of 
 cost/benefit advantages and, equally important, 
 within the limits of developing markets for recov- 
 ered materials. Viable alternatives are document- 
 ed for solving the immediate problem and integrat- 
 ing the capability for conserving precious re- 
 sources by enhancing the following objectives: (1) 
 Improve efficiencies; (2) Enhance satisfaction; (3) 
 Increase local knowledge and information; and, (4) 
 Economically recover and process materials.

 Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) in North America 
 is emerging from the laboratory and is finding 
 many potential applications. Steel, glass, and plas- 
 tic fibers are being used in mortars and concretes 
 to improve the characteristics of these materials, 
 particularly the flexural and impact strengths. 
 Steel-FRC is being used mostly for pavement 
 overlays. Glass-fiber-reinforced cements are being 
 used in architectural products. Plastic-fiber-rein- 
 forced products are being used for improved spall 
 and impact resistance. The applications of FRC 
 
 are limited only by the ingenuity of the user.

 The inland waterways system of the United States 
 as it exists today has a number of problems associ- 
 ated with near-capacity traffic conditions. In many 
 places on the Mississippi, Ohio, and Missouri 
 Rivers and their navigable tributaries, there are se- 
 rious impediments to the free flow of waterborne 
 commerce. This study was conducted to deter- 
 mine the potential for more efficient utilization of 
 existing inland waterways resources and facilities 
 as a possible alternative to heavy investment in 
 major construction. The study was based on distri- 
 bution of a questionnaire, meetings and discus- 
 sions with the Civil Works Task Group for Inland 
 Waterways Systems Analysis, and visits to Corps 
 of Engineers Civil Works offices and river sites by 
 the author. The inland waterways system is an inti- 
 mate interweaving of three significant subsystems: 
 the physical waterway, the towing industry, and 
 commodities. These subsystems and their interre- 
 lations are discussed in detail herein. It was deter- 
 mined that there are a number of areas of potential 
 for improvement in the inland waterways system. 
 These areas involve such items as changes in op- 
 erating procedures of the locks, revisions of the 
 operating rules for towboats approaching and 
 using locks, staffing considerations, additional as- 
 sistance at heavily trafficked locks, and other such 
 factors.

 This article considers the causes of the elimination 
 of many irrigated fields in England when the devel- 
 opment of this kind of arrangement was appearing 
 in other countries. Unfavorable local and soil cli- 
 matic conditions necessitated the replacement of 
 irrigated fields by purification plants of another 
 type. The liquidation of irrigated fields in England 
 and in the Eastern United States should not be an 
 example for countries in which other geographic 
 conditions predominate. The considerable simulta- 
 neous increase in arrangements of this type in 
 other countries proves the incorrectness of uncriti- 
 cal copying of England's example and negative re- 
 action to the agricultural use of sewage water in 
 localities with conditions which favor its use.

 utilization of water resources knowledge in the

 presented to the conference under this heading 
 covering a broad range of issues: from a diagnostic 
 description of a difficult situation in rural India, to a 
 theoretical approach to the policy decisions rele- 
 vant to rural modernization efforts. This general 
 report summarizes the six papers, comments brief- 
 ly on them, then focuses on two key points which 
 were by-passed by the papers: (a) the resistance 
 to change of farming communities at lower levels 
 of technological sophistication; (b) attempts to 
 overcome this resistance.

 The proper transportation and handling of fish 
 eggs and fry is a vital part of any fish production 
 system. Careful planning is important. The first 
 thing to decide is the type of container to be used 
 to hold the fish. There are buckets and barrels of 
 many sizes and designs, each with different char- 
 acteristics. A second consideration is the density 
 to which the fry should be packed in the container. 
 This must be as dense as possible to save space 
 and money, but not so dense as to kill the fish. The 
 two most important factors in determining the 
 maximum allowable density are water temperature 
 and dissolved oxygen levels. Fish fry and eggs are 
 shipped by three major means: by land, by water, 
 and by air. This involves either trucks, trains, boats, 
 airplanes, or human labor. Each method has ad- 
 vantages for different situations. During any form 
 of transportation, water maintenance is necessary. 
 If some sort of method for replenishing dissolved 
 oxygen is used, replacement of water can be put 
 off, but still not avoided. The source of fresh water 
 must be inspected carefully before it is used. Clean 
 pond water appears to be best. Any temperature 
 difference between old and new water should be 
 minimized. In more recent years, cultivation of 
 mullet species has become prominent, moving in 
 with the more traditional species, the carps and the 
 bigheads. Most of the techniques used for the 
 transportation of all species, including mullet, 
 apply to their eggs. (Author)

 The supply of fish fry and fingerlings is of primary 
 concern to the fish culturing industry. In order to 
 increase the supply, it is necessary to improve 
 rearing techniques. The first of many parts to this 
 program is to improve pond condition. It is recom- 
 mended that rearing ponds be drained and 
 cleaned once a year. The cleaning process in- 
 volves treatment with various chemical sub- 
 stances, and simple mud removal (dredging). This 
 reduces the incidence of disease, eliminates pest 
 species and other harmful organisms, and facili- 
 tates repair of the pond's structure. Many different 
 chemicals can be used, although lime and bleach- 
 ing powder seem to be the most effective. The 
 second area to be considered is that of fry nutri- 
 tion. Different species of fry have different food 
 preferences. For this reason, they can be found in 
 different areas of the pond. For each species of 
 fish, slightly different pond and fertilizer conditions 
 are considered optimal. The basic fertilizers used 
 are grass, cow manure, soybean milk, and peanut 
 cakes. Recent experiments using human sewage 
 have proven very successful, with exciting pros- 
 pects for the future. A third consideration is the se- 
 lection of a suitable rearing pond. Characteristics 
 of a good pond are: an ample water source, appro- 
 priate size and depth, circular shape, level bottom, 
 non-leaking, and plenty of sunlight.

 With the shortage of fossil fuels becoming a seri- 
 ous problem and the high cost and environmental 
 hazards of nuclear propulsion, it appears to be a 
 good time to go back and take a hard look at the 
 use of sails as the device and wind as the energy 
 source for ship propulsion. (In the interest of 
 adding credence to what may be considered a 
 questionable endeavor, it should be noted that se- 
 rious studies are being made both in Britain and 
 West Germany concerning the practicality of sail 
 propulsion for commercial vessels.) The paper re- 
 views the history of sails as a means of propulsion, 
 the capabilities and limitations of modern sailing 
 ship designs with both conventional displacement 
 hulls and unconventional hull forms such as semi- 
 submersible and hydrofoil supported considered. 
 A variety of designs to suit naval and commercial 
 applications are provided for further consideration.

 Bacterial skin infections in the tropics are the pre- 
 dominant cause of dermatological disease in civil- 
 ians and are directly related to temperature, hu- 
 midity, exposure, and living conditions. Substan- 
 dard housing and poor hygiene, biting and vector 
 insects contribute to high rates of infection. Tropi- 
 cal skin infections are usually streptococcal. In 
 military populations, personnel on field operations 
 are at highest risk. Support troops, even in the 
 tropics, have a much lower incidence of strepto- 
 coccal pyoderma. Currently available deodorant 
 soaps do not prevent skin infections, but chlorhexi- 
 dine gluconate looks promising. Epidemic furuncu- 
 losis is related to close social contact, and may be 
 more common than most physicians realize. Early 
 treatment with antibiotics plays a significant role in 
 prevention of new furuncles among contacts. Anti- 
 biotic resistant strains of bacteria pose new prob- 
 lems in cutaneous microbiology. Severe fungal in- 
 fections of the skin may attack up to 70% of mili- 
 tary personnel in hot humid environments. Occlu- 
 sion is the most significant factor, and appears to 
 be related to accumulation of C02 under damp 
 clothing. Combined therapy of tinea corporis/ 
 cruris with topical miconazole/hydrocortisone is 
 highly effective. Hydrocortisone alone makes 
 these infections worse in the tropics. Topical clotri- 
 mazole is effective in the treatment of dermatophy- 
 tosis, but tinea pedis is difficult to treat and usually 
 recurs.

 Low permeability to water is a primary considera- 
 tion in the design and construction of earth-cov- 
 ered concrete structures. Factors affecting the 
 permeability of concrete are generally classified 
 into three groups: (1) constituent materials; (2) 
 methods of concrete preparation; and (3) subse- 
 quent treatment of the concrete. Each group of 
 factors is examined in this paper and recommen- 
 dations are made on how to obtain concrete that is 
 virtually impermeable. Also, some specialized con- 
 cretes with potential applications in earth-covered 
 structures are discussed briefly. These include 
 polymer-impregnated, polymer, and fiber-rein-

 The question of irrigation and flood control in Thai- 
 land has been historically bound together not only 
 with the immediate problems of production of Thai- 
 land's main export crop of paddy rice, but with the 
 pattern of Thailand's foreign economic and politi- 
 cal relations. Developmental irrigation and flood 
 control projects only now nearing completion are 
 virtually identical to those recommended more 
 than half a century ago by a Dutch irrigation advis- 
 er, and which could have been completed within 
 twelve years at a fraction of the cumulative costs, 
 both in capitalization and crop losses, to date.

 Woodworking machines are made to do a wide va-

 number of makes, sizes, and styles of machines 
 from which to choose. They are not standardized. 
 Only a brief classification and outline of specifica- 
 tions for fairly typical machines of the more impor- 
 tant types is attempted. Small light machines of the 
 home workshop size are not included. Woodwork- 
 ing machines may be divided into three broad 
 classes based on function: sawmill, planing mill, 
 
 and industrial plant machinery. The function of 
 sawmill machinery is to cut the log into rough, 
 green lumber. The planing mill takes the rough 
 lumber (usually dry), and prepares it for general 
 construction uses, such as flooring, siding, shiplap, 
 or framing. The industrial plant cuts up lumber and 
 makes it into doors, furniture, boxes, or other fabri- 
 cated products. (Author)

 In four different tropical environments, heavily in-

 cies of scientifically identified woods have been 
 undergoing a screening test for periods up to an 
 1 8-month exposure. Many of the woods were se- 
 lected because of their reputed resistance to bio- 
 logical attack. Results of marine borer resistance 
 studies have revealed 21 woods to be highly resis- 
 tant to borers in Pacific Ocean water for the first 14 
 months of exposure. In tropical brackish water only 
 3 woods studied were highly resistant and very 
 heavy damage was observed on 69 during the 14- 
 month period. Stake tests in tropical jungle soil on 
 both the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts of Panama 
 showed 26 woods to be very durable to both sub- 
 terranean termites and fungal decay for the first 1 8 
 months of exposure. A number of these resistant 
 woods had not been studied previously. From the 
 results of these studies, each wood included has 
 been assigned resistance ratings of high, moder- 
 ate, or low in respect to marine borer attack in sea 
 water, teredo attack in brackish water, subterra- 
 nean termites in tropical soil, and fungal decay in 
 contact with jungle soil. Detailed descriptions of 
 wood species which are considered to be of spe-

 This report is one of a series under a program 
 started in November, 1964, entitled 'An Inventory 
 of Geographical Research on Desert Environ- 
 ments.' Geographic areas covered by the inven- 
 tory were generally those classified as arid or ex- 
 tremely arid. Some variation in coverage occurs 
 from chapter to chapter, without change in the ob- 
 jective of compiling and presenting the greatest 
 possible amount of useful information in the allot- 
 ted time. The purpose of the inventory is to deter- 
 mine in detail what topics have been or are being 
 investigated for the world's deserts, to appraise 
 the reported work, and to disclose areas of study 
 where further work is needed. The series of chap- 
 ters does not attempt to recapitulate all informa- 
 tion known about the deserts of the world, but 
 rather comprises a compendium-guidebook to 
 past and present research. It is based upon a criti- 
 cal review of the published literature augmented by 
 consultations with specialists. (Author)

 A discussion is presented of the agrarian situation 
 in Indonesia and of the political consequences of 
 the failure of all rural development programs since 
 
 the achievement of independence in 1 949. Some 
 conclusions are drawn concerning the order of 
 magnitude of the agrarian problem facing Indone- 
 sia. The most salient fact is that, according to cur- 
 rent estimates by the International Bank for Re- 
 construction and Development, in the 1960-1966 
 period rice production increased at a rate of 1.6 
 percent per year whereas the population growth 
 rate was 2.4 percent. (Author)

 The report is the outcome of a symposium on the 
 ecology of the forest/savanna boundary. The 
 papers presented at the meeting have been cut 
 and edited so that a theme is presented rather 
 than a series of papers. In the introduction, the 
 problems involved in savanna classification and 
 the ambiguity of terminology are discussed, types 
 of savanna found in different parts of the world de- 
 scribed, and methods of examination analysed. 
 The section is concluded by a description of the 
 field trip made by the Symposium members, during 
 which many of the differences in attitude were 
 seen in a fresh light. A second chapter is con- 
 cerned with savanna/forest boundaries held 
 stable by factors of the physical environment; here 
 the roles of flooding and desiccation, climate, soils 
 and geomorphology are examined. In the third 
 chapter the authors discuss stable boundaries re- 
 sulting from human action. Fire and the role of do- 
 mesticated grazing animals are seen as the major 
 factors. The subject of the fourth section is the 
 boundary when not in equilibrium. Many factors are 
 examined in different parts of the world including 
 soil, wild animals, fire, palaeoclimatology and man. 
 An evaluation is made of the use of palynological 
 and historical data. (Author)

 China's decision to collectivize agriculture was 
 sudden and required a series of adjustments. Fol- 
 lowing collectivization, it was necessary first to de- 
 velop and later expand private plots, but this cre- 
 ated such serious problems for the collective fields 
 that they were again eliminated in 1958. Despite 
 collectivization and inputs into villages, agriculture 
 which was the foundation of industrial develop- 
 ment was not producing enough to make possible 
 more rapid economic development from the period 
 of mid-1 950's until the mid-1 960's. It was for this 
 reason that greater efforts were placed in the early 
 1 960's on agriculture. (Author)

 The purpose of this study is to examine the effects 
 of African agricultural practices in Kenya on soil 
 productivity. Emphasis is placed on discovering 
 what effects cultivation would have on the nutrient 
 levels of virgin soils in that country. It was found 
 that fragmentation, female labor, and the attitude 
 toward fertilization was actually more important 
 than the more tangible physical considerations in 
 understanding the basic characteristics of African 
 agriculture. The deterioration of the physical condi- 
 tion of the soil through continuous cultivation per- 
 haps is more responsible for a decreased produc- 
 tivity than is nutrient depletion. Only through sus- 
 tained use of fertilizers can the productivity of 
 Kenya soils be substantially increased. The eco- 
 nomic future of the African farmer will depend 
 upon his ability to obtain a higher income through 
 the sale of cash crops. (Author)

 This study examines the land and water manage- 
 ment problems of Tlaxcala, concentrating on the 
 southwestern portion of the state which lies at the 
 northern end of the Basin of Puebla on the Mesa 
 Central of Mexico. To cope with poorly drained, 
 
 sand-filled streamways which threaten flood and 
 deposition on basin floor soils, the Tlaxcala farm- 
 ers practice sophisticated land conservation and 
 reclamation techniques, using a minimum of equip- 
 ment. In the process, they have created a produc- 
 tive and distinctive agricultural region. A descrip- 
 tion of the methods they employ to maintain and 
 expand the agricultural base in this difficult envi- 
 ronment forms part I of this study. In part II, the 
 ecology of farm life is discussed and the geograph- 
 ical relationship between complexes of agricultural 
 practices, social systems, and populations is dis-

 The Sierra de Tuxtla, a small, isolated volcanic 
 mountain area near the Gulf coast of southern Ver- 
 acruz, Mexico, affords excellent conditions for bio- 
 geographical investigations. The present study de- 
 scribes the manner in which physical and human 
 factors have influenced native vegetation, non- 
 transient avifauna and larger forest mammals in 
 this tropical region. Physical factors considered 
 are geology, land configuration, climate, drainage 
 and soils; human factors examined include popula- 
 tion, settlement and forms of land use. The Sierra 
 has no major industrial raw materials, so agricul- 
 ture continues to be the principal occupation, with 
 commercial plantations providing export products. 
 Although attempts are being made to improve agri- 
 culture and conserve forests, immediate and effec- 
 tive measures are required to control land use and 
 enforce game laws. Varied natural habitats and a 
 rich fauna provide excellent bases for a national 
 park or wildlife refuge. Such an area would con- 
 serve forests, soils, water and wildlife, and afford a 
 place for scientific study and recreation. A working 
 man-land relationship must be established if the 
 Sierra's natural resources are to be used wisely, its 
 agricultural productivity increased and natural fea- 
 tures preserved. (Author)

 The study primarily involves the analysis of physi- 
 cal and cultural factors affecting sugar cane yield 
 although it will also further an understanding of the 
 spatial organization of sugar cane production. The 
 study is based on the Victorias Milling District, 
 which covers approximately 37,000 hectares in 
 northern Negros Occidental Province in the central 
 Philippines. A simple model was used to describe 
 the area's spatial organization of sugar cane pro- 
 duction in the sphere of plantation agriculture. The 
 model stipulates (1) an extensive land area, (2) 
 mono-cropping, (3) centralized managerial control, 
 (4) an abundant labor supply and (5) production for 
 the export market. It has these further qualities 
 which are believed to be comparable for most 
 sugar cane districts in the Philippines: the charac- 
 teristic hacienda-central settlements, the problems 
 of mechanization, and the quota system for sugar 
 
 cane. The yield factors studied were hacienda 
 size, hauling distance from the hacienda to the 
 mill, the slope, soil quality, the necessity for truck- 
 ing, tenure, and the type of power used in land 
 preparation. (Author)

 study deals with the Baazighars and Gadolias, tra- 
 ditionally nomadic groups in the Indian Punjab, as 
 to the impacts of canal irrigation and political parti- 
 tion. The topic of the second study is physiological 
 densities in which three villages of Bihar are stud- 
 ied. Agriculturally unproductive land is subtracted 
 from overall village area in order to obtain a ratio 
 suggesting meaningful rural population pressures. 
 The third study uses the small portion of the valley 
 of upper Beas River for comparing the relative effi- 
 ciency of systematic, stratified random, and hap- 
 hazard methods of line sampling of land use. The 
 fourth and major study examines the spatial struc- 
 ture of two districts of Central Punjab, India.

 To write of 'change' in the context of Tsuen Wan's 
 urbanization, is not simply a matter of describing 
 the tangible evidence of urban growth or delimiting 
 its parameters. Changes in population and area, 
 mounting levels of capital investment and industri- 
 al production, fluctuations in land values, and other 
 measurable indices of urbanization are descriptive 
 of an essentially pragmatic response to the devel- 
 opment plan which has defined the broad limits of 
 urbanization. More significantly, the successful ap- 
 plication of traditional Chinese conceptions of 
 'change' to the immediate demands of urbaniza- 
 tion has facilitated a smooth transition to a modern 
 urban-industrial society. (Author)

 The report is an effort to provide operationally rele- 
 vant concepts and guidelines for persons respon- 
 sible for planning and implementing development 
 projects in agrarian countries. A framework for de- 
 
 scribing or evaluating the conduct of development 
 projects is proposed, and applied to the results of 
 an analysis of 203 case studies of past projects. 
 Influences, conditions, and techniques which 
 appear to affect project outcome are: (1) local cul- 
 tural characteristics, such as leader patterns, 
 social structure, and economic patterns; (2) moti- 
 vation for change, including felt needs and per- 
 ceived practical benefits; and (3) project strate- 
 gies, such as the innovator's image characteris- 
 tics, communication, and participation. The case 
 study analysis suggests that factors of special im- 
 portance to success in development projects are 
 cooperation of local leaders, degree and immedi- 
 acy of practical benefits which recipients antici- 
 pate, innovator skill in communication processes, 
 participation of recipients in implementing the 
 change, and establishing arrangements for main- 
 tenance of the innovation by the local people.

 Modernization, viewed in a regional setting, is a 
 process resulting jointly in areal integration and dif- 
 ferentiation. A conceptual spatial model of mod- 
 ernization is proposed. The arguments developed 
 are applied to Western Nigeria in relation to the 
 location of agricultural production, the develop- 
 ment of a system of periodic food markets, and the 
 unequal modernization of the large preindustrial 
 Yoruba towns. Measurement of the spatial aspects 
 of modernization is achieved through the use of 
 principal components analysis with components 
 scores, regression analysis with residuals, and 
 trend surface fitting. (Author)

 program in the Philippines: (1) to avoid explicit ref- 
 erence to some population growth rate as a formal 
 program goal; (2) to examine the complex relation- 
 ship between knowledge and use of contraceptive 
 techniques; (3) to gather information from across 
 the country rather than in depth from any single

 over the various agencies concerned to record ex- 
 periences of individual women and to standardize

 The following hypothesis is presented and de- 
 fended. Climate is a predisposing factor, not a de- 
 termining factor. Climate, characterised as it is in 
 many parts of the Amazon Basin by a distinctive 
 dry season of up to seven months in length, as in 
 
 the Rupununi-Rio Branco region, often makes the 
 presence of tropical rain forest problematical and 
 predisposes the environment towards the develop- 
 ment of savanna vegetation. Low soil fertility and 
 laterite are frequently considered as prime deter- 
 minants of savanna vegetation but here they are 
 considered as features associated with savanna 
 landscapes, especially on senile, pediplaned sur- 
 faces. Ocassionally they may be resultant factors, 
 as when the nutrient cycle is broken after the dis- 
 appearance of forest cover. Fire, which is also fre- 
 quently considered a prime determinant, is gener- 
 ally a maintaining factor, but in limited areas may 
 be causal, in the sense that it is immediate in 
 ohronological terms. The stage of geomorphic 
 evolution and the dominant geomorphic processes 
 in the landscape are those factors which most di- 
 rectly influence the position and behaviour of the 
 water table, the soil moisture regime, the soil nutri- 
 ent cycle, the ecoclimates of the region and thus, 
 the distribution of forest and savanna. (Author)

 A summary report is made on a comparative study 
 of the conditions under which innovation and 
 change are accepted in developing nations. It is 
 shown that major determinants of status segrega- 
 tion as over against status association does not lie 
 in socio-demographic factors but in the relation be- 
 tween status group and control center (govern- 
 ment). Different types of status segregation are 
 closely correlated with their access to and 'dis- 
 tance' from the central control; while increase in 
 class association is correlated with the degree of 
 participation in 'center' formation. These patterns 
 are illustrated by comparative analyses of Asian 
 and Latin American countries. (Author)

 for resistance to decay fungi. The tests indicated 
 that 25 percent of the species would be resistant

 One hundred and fifteen wood species have been 
 exposed to marine borers in three different tropical 
 waters for periods up to 90 months. Underwater 
 sites were in the Panama Canal Zone and included 
 two oceans and a brackish-water lake. Over 30 
 species of marine-boring organisms were identi- 
 fied from these waters; their extreme activity in the 
 warm tropical environments provided a very thor- 
 ough screening test for the woods. Samples have 
 been evaluated separately for resistance to the 
 three principal borer classes-teredo, pholad, and

 limnoria. Several of the woods were resistant to 
 one or more of the borer types. Some of these re- 
 sistant species are relatively unknown as marine 
 construction timbers, and in some instances they 
 proved to be more durable than Greenheart, Teak, 
 and other commercial marine woods. The species 
 most resistant to all borers was Dalbergia retusa 
 (Cocobolo), whose oily extract may provide leads 
 to a satisfactory wood preservative. The woods 
 most resistant to each of the different classes of 
 borers are tabulated, with their respective silica 
 content and density included. Silica was shown to 
 be significant only in relation to teredine borers, 
 while wood density was important only with pho- 
 lads. Woods considered to be of special interest 
 because of findings in the study are discussed indi- 
 vidually. (Author)

 Forty-eight collections were made for a study of 
 primary and secondary production at a station in 
 460 m of water, between 29 August 1967 and 1 
 September 1969, and 22 additional collections at 
 1 7 deep water stations within a radius of 100 miles 
 from Barbados. Primary production by carbon fix- 
 ation lacked seasonal variation and annual pro- 
 duction was estimated at 1 1 7 g C /sq m/year. Pre- 
 dictable seasonal variations were also lacking in 
 concentrations of nutrients and in the composition 
 and quantity of phytoplankton and zooplankton. 
 However evidence was obtained of oscillations 
 with a two to four months' periodicity in the con- 
 centration of chlorophyll and the numbers of Tri- 
 chodesmium, which is the most important phyto- 
 plankton of the surface waters. This is tentatively 
 ascribed to a short term growth and decay cycle 
 which may be determined by grazing by zooplank-

 verse correlation between salinity and silicate con-

 The low salinity/high silicate water found off Bar-

 The paper discusses the Soviet observations of 
 tuna fishes which were carried out in the coastal 
 belt of S America, W Africa and the tropical zone of 
 the Atlantic Ocean during 1959-1962. Since the 
 species consists of two distinct groups, larger and 
 smaller tunas, the distribution, migration and con- 
 centrations of these groups are charted separate- 
 ly, pointing out the hydrological conditions that 
 favor the concentrations of these fishes, i.e., the 
 upwelling, convergence and divergence belts, vari- 
 ations of water temperature, salinity and phospho- 
 rus content. (Author)

 The report gives a brief summary of the findings of 
 some 34 individual papers which had come from 
 this project as of the end of the contract period. It 
 includes also a brief summary of the collaborative 
 effort between Penn State and Ateneo de Manila 
 University in carrying out and publishing these var- 
 ious papers. Major findings include pervasive 
 social patterns of leveling which tend to diminish 
 the benefit to individuals of innovative efforts but, 
 at the same time, spread the risk of losses. The 
 traditional way of life is maintained because it 
 offers more security than ways which might be 
 considered more modern. These general patterns 
 emerged strongly in studies of farmers, fishermen 
 and market vendors. Other studies were con- 
 cerned with nutritional status in rural areas and 
 with factors which maintained a level of nutrition in 
 which growth and resistance to infection were ad- 
 versely affected. Still other studies were con- 
 cerned with the persistence of traditional patterns 
 in social organization of government structures, 
 particularly the police. (Author)

 The article reviews the national and international 
 efforts at preparing tables of recommended dietary 
 allowances. The aim of these efforts has been to 
 recommend the levels of consumption of calories 
 and essential nutritents which will ensure good 
 health of most of the people. Recommendations 
 made jointly by Food and Agriculture Organization 
 and World Health Organization for various nutri- 
 ents have been compared with similar recommen- 
 dations by other national nutrition bodies in U.S.A., 
 Canada and United Kingdom. Certain differences 
 between the national and international recommen- 
 dations have been pointed out and the underlying 
 causes discussed. The trend of recommendations 
 for dietary allowances over the last 20 years made 
 by national bodies and international organizations 
 indicates that the differences between the two are 
 gradually diminishing as more knowledge has 
 become available and agreement has largely been 
 reached on the bases on which these recommen- 
 dations are made. (Author)

 The nature and constitution of ferro-cement is re- 
 viewed with special reference to the structure of 
 cement paste. The microstructure of low water to- 
 cement ratio pastes is presented in schematic il- 
 lustrations to show that a thin paste layer can be 
 used to protect steel reinforcing material from a 
 marine environment. A galvanic cell between the 
 plain steel reinforcing bar and the galvanized steel 
 mesh ordinarily used in ferro-cement is identified. 
 This galvanic cell gives off hydrogen gas at the 
 plain steel reinforcing bar which leads to poor 
 bonding. Possible solutions to this problem are 
 presented and one, the use of chromium trioxide 
 (Cr03) in the mix water, is shown to solve the prob- 
 lem most effectively. This leads to improved me- 
 chanical properties as well as a sounder barrier to 
 corrosion of the reinforcement. (Author)

 Six chemical wood preservatives were selected for 
 evaluation over long periods of exposure in ex- 
 tremely borer-active marine environments. South- 
 ern Yellow Pine and Douglas Fir were full-cell pres- 
 sure-treated with these chemicals and exposed in 
 tropical seas and tropical brackish water for peri- 
 ods up to 90 months. Subsequently, 16 of the natu- 
 ral tropical woods considered best for use with 
 pressure preservatives were combined with whole 
 creosote and exposed in the most borer active of 
 the seawater sites for periods exceeding 4 years. 
 All samples have been removed, sectioned, and 
 rated separately for the three major groups of 
 marine borers: teredo, pholad, and limnoria. The 
 long-term results show that heavy treatments of 
 whole creosote and chromated copper arsenate 
 (CCA, type A) are very effective preservatives for 
 Southern Pine exposed in seawater, while the CCA 
 was the singularly most effective treatment against 
 the brackish-water Psiloteredo. Some of the most 
 promising results were obtained with combinations 
 of a few relatively limnoria-resistant tropical woods 
 with a teredo-effective creosote pressure treat- 
 ment. (Author)

 The Forest Products Laboratory (FPL) has devel- 
 oped five house plans for low-cost rural houses to 
 demonstrate cost-saving principles of construc- 
 tion. The plans feature simplicity of design, but pro- 
 vide structurally sound houses that fulfill the needs 
 of many families. A questionnaire was mailed to 
 1 ,620 individuals who requested and were sent the 
 FPL plans during 1 969. A total of 1 , 1 29 responded. 
 The replies indicated that 225 houses had been 
 built and that 318 houses were planned for future 
 construction. Ninety-three percent of the reported 
 costs were less than $1 2,000; 92 percent indicated 
 incomes of less than $7,000. In general, the survey 
 results show that structurally sound houses can be 
 built to meet the needs of low-income families at 
 prices they can affort to pay. (Author)

 The research described deals with two subjects; 
 hormone receptors in insects and the tanning of 
 the insect cuticle. If either process can be inter- 
 fered with, one would have an effective means of 
 insect control. Receptor studies using sucrose 
 density gradient ultracentrifugation demonstrated 
 the existence of two protein receptors in the crus- 
 tacean hepatopancaeas that bind label from 3H- 
 
 ecdysone (molting hormone). Microchemical anal- 
 ysis demonsttated that the label was now due to a 
 previously undescribed ecdysone metabolite. Ex- 
 periments with the lipoidal juvenile hormone 
 showed that a specific hemolymph (blood) lipopro- 
 tein binds 14C-juvenile hormone. Using column 
 chromatography, electrophoresis, and immunolo- 
 gical procedures, the author has shown that 14C- 
 dopamine (a central compound in tanning of the 
 cuticle) is metabolized by two different routes in 
 the tobacco hornworm. The immunochemical and 
 radiotracer studies demonstrate for the first time 
 that these hemolymph carrier proteins do indeed 
 traverse the epidermal cell to make their way unal- 
 tered into the cuticle undergoing tanning. (Author)

 proach has been the direct conversion of cellulose 
 to animal protein by ruminant feeding, or to single

 lose. The authors' approach has been a different 
 one. Cellulose was converted to glucose by acid or

 A comprehensive analysis is made of the move- 
 ment of food and supplies from their sources, 
 through middlemen, to consumers in the public 
 market-place of Estancia, lloilo, a town of 15,000 
 people located on the northeastern corner of 
 Panay Island in the Philippines. An insight into the 
 social and economic operations of this marketing 
 process-extrapolated to underdeveloped coun- 
 tries throughout the world-suggests action pro- 
 grams for coping effectively with the impediments 
 to progress which lie in many present production 
 and marketing patterns. (Author Modified Abstract)

 essential means to aid health programs in devel-

 mum utilization of men, money, and materials must 
 be accomplished if the medical department is to 
 meet the challenge of delivering the product of 
 medical knowledte, technology, and expertise to 
 the benefit of the masses of people in developing 
 nations who desire these benefits. (Author)

 Soil stabilization is used extensively in road and 
 airfield construction. In particular, soil-cement ap- 
 pears to be a favorite among the engineers. As the 
 plasticity of a soil increases, the ability to ade- 
 quately mix the cement with the soil becomes a 
 critical factor. Also the quantity of cement required 
 to stabilize the soil becomes excessive. The objec- 
 tive of the study was to determine the effect of re- 
 duced compacted density on the durability of 
 cement stabilized clays, pretreated with lime. The 
 reduction in density did not impair the durability of 
 cement stabilized clay soils, which were pretreated 
 with lime. Most of the test results indicated an im- 
 proved resistance to freeze-thaw. An evaluation of 
 the unconfined compressive strength results ob- 
 tained during freeze-thaw shows that lime pretreat- 
 ment improved the strengths. (Modified author ab-

 During the last decade, research to discover 
 means of controlling obnoxious aquatic plant 
 growth has included evaluation of various species 
 of herbivorous fishes. Two of the species studied, 
 Israeli carp and the white amur fish, have shown 
 sufficient efficacy to offer promise for utilization in 
 controlling aquatic weeds in habitats occupied by 
 established game fish populations. The Israeli carp 
 
 was only effective in controlling filamentous algae 
 and is useless for control of rooted aquatic plants. 
 The white amur fish, on the other hand, has shown 
 great promise in controlling submersed and 
 emersed types of plants. The purpose of this re- 
 search report was to determine the efficiency of 
 the white amur fish (Ctenopharyngodon idella) as a 
 biological control agent for aquatic weed popula- 
 tions in natural habitats, with evaluation of the ef- 
 fects of space and plant nutrients resulting from 
 the destruction of weeds in the aquatic ecosystem. 
 This research information provides the basis to es- 
 tablish a system of knowledge for control and 
 operational procedures for use of white amur fish 
 for aquatic plant control. (Author)

 Management includes the functions of planning, 
 organizing, directing, controlling and staffing. The 
 function of directing includes the skill of leader- 
 ship. A manager is charged with carrying out all of 
 the functions of management. Some authorities 
 have said that managers should be leaders but 
 leaders need not be managers. There has been 
 confusion concerning these terms because of their 
 wide interchangeable use, and they are used inter- 
 changeably in this paper but for clarity when the 
 terms manager or management are used they 
 refer to that part of management which involves 
 getting things done through people.

 Problems caused by decay in buildings in the 
 United States and the means to avoid or control 
 them are dealt with in this work. The principal mois- 
 ture situations and construction features most re- 
 sponsible for the occurrence of decay in various 
 building parts are described, and directions are 
 given for approximately modifying or eliminating 
 undesirable conditions. Emphasis throughout is on 
 the two primary means of protecting against 
 decay: (1) The use of dry wood and of construction 
 
 methods to keep wood dry, and (2) methods to 
 treat wood with a suitable preservative in areas 
 where dry conditions cannot be maintained.

 Testing of a whey-soy beverage powder was car- 
 ried out in Chile, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Sierra 
 Leone and the Dominican Republic to determine 
 its probable acceptability for use as a supplemen- 
 tary food for pre-school children. Test results indi- 
 cated that the beverage powder should be accept- 
 able in all test countries except possible Sierra 
 Leone. Moreover, since the tests were carried out 
 in a variety of geographical areas and cultures and 
 in several types of distribution systems, it may be 
 concluded that there is a high probability that the 
 beverage powder will be acceptable in pre-school 
 child feeding programs in most parts of the devel- 
 oping world.

 A series of 25 field stations were established from 
 which 4000 snails were collected. These snail 
 hosts serve as hosts of both of the endemic schis- 
 tosome species (Schistosoma haematobium from 
 Bulinus truncatus, Bu. abyssinicus, Bu. sericinus, 
 and Bu. forskalii; and S. mansoni from Biompha- 
 laria pfeifferi) and a number of possible trematode 
 antagonists among the echinostome species 
 found parasitizing these snails. About 75 collec- 
 tions of cercariae were made and analyzed. A spe- 
 cies of 43-spined Echinoparyphium proved to be a 
 widespread parasite in the various forms of Bulinus 
 collected both in Ethiopia and Egypt. Efforts to de- 
 velop this species as a biological control of S. hae- 
 matobium are underway. Factors required for suc- 
 cessful biological control are described and dis- 
 cussed.

 Present water hyacinth control programs provide 
 at best only short-term control, and thus are of 
 short-term benefit as far as productivity of the envi- 
 ronment is concerned, whereas successful biologi- 
 cal control will provide long-term benefits to pro- 
 ductivity, with a concomitant reduction in the use of 
 chemical or mechanical disturbances of the envi- 
 ronment. Once a biological control agent is estab- 
 lished, it becomes an integral part of the environ- 
 ment and as such may properly be considered a 
 self-renewable resource, and a beneficial addition 
 to our environment. It is a hope that Neochetina 
 eichhorniae will prove to be just that, and that it 
 will, alone or in conjunction with other native or in- 
 troduced natural enemies, bring about the allevi- 
 ation of the problems caused by water hyacinth in 
 the southeastern United States. (Author)

 Ferro-cement is a cement mortar with a high rela- 
 tive volume of well dispersed steel wire reinforce- 
 ment. The material properties of ferrocement are 
 neither those of the mortar alone nor of the rein- 
 forcement and vary as the mortar and reinforce- 
 ment configuiations are changed. In this study, 
 several variations of ferro-cement were fabricated 
 and subjected to constant amplitude cyclic loads 
 up to ten million cycles. Stress versus cycles-to- 
 failure plots were developed and comparisons be- 
 tween the data for various ferro-cement modifica- 
 tions were made. Monotonic tests were conducted 
 on the ferro-cement to allow comparisons with 
 work conducted by other experimenters. An inves- 
 tigation of the fracture surface was conducted 
 using a scanning electron microscope. (Author)

 Water quality standards were reviewed and tenta- 
 tive stream standards proposed for use in develop- 
 ing countries of Southeast Asia on the basis of le- 
 gitimate water uses and adaptation of available 
 
 data to local conditions. A survey of stream stand- 
 ards and water uses applied in the Southeast 
 Asian region indicated that few countries had 
 adopted standards and practically no attempt had 
 been made to adjust to suit local conditions. Ex- 
 perimental studies suggested that oxidation pond 
 effluent would have a beneficial effect on the 
 oxygen balance of a stream under tropical condi- 
 tions provided that the algal concentration was not 
 more than 10,000 cells/ml after dilution in the 
 stream. Oxidation ponds were assessed as being 
 more attractive than either trickling filter or activat- 
 ed sludge treatment plants for populations less 
 than 175,000 and land rental costs of U.S. $0.10

 The investigation documents the experience 
 gained by the Corps of Engineers and the Navy 
 since World War II in the use of coral as an aggre- 
 gate for portland cement concrete. The approach 
 was to evaluate relevant literature and construc- 
 tion and inspection records, visit construction and 
 material preparation sites, evaluate existing coral 
 concrete structures, and analyze coral aggregate 
 and coral concrete samples in the laboratory. The 
 results of the investigation indicate that coral has 
 successfully been used as an aggregate for con- 
 crete in vertical construction. The only significant 
 type of deterioration observed in coral concrete 
 structures was the cracking and spalling of con- 
 crete associated with corroding reinforcing steel. 
 The severity of the corrosion-spalling problem was 
 sufficient in some cases to affect structural integri- 
 ty, while in other cases little or no deterioration was 
 observed. For the most part specifications and 
 construction techniques currently being used for 
 production of coral aggregate and coral concrete 
 are similar to specifications and techniques for 
 conventional aggregate and concrete. (Author)

 This report is a continuation of the former efforts to 
 elucidate the behavior of ferrocement concrete in 
 static and dynamic stress fields. The influence of 
 various reinforcements on pre and post cracking of 
 thin sections forms the main topic of this report. 
 The objects of the testing program were to com- 
 pare the effectiveness of various steel mesh con- 
 figurations in arresting crack propagation in 
 stressed members; to provide experimental data 
 for checking theoretical predictions of strength

 future research potential. The work to date has 
 been devoted to flexural and direct tensile tests on 
 thin slabs. The slabs were reinforced uniformly 
 with steel meshes of various patterns. The matrix 
 consisted of microconcretes, and some variations 
 in the mix design were incorporated.

 Like the previous volume on the subject (DA PAM 
 550-5) which was issued in April 1 967, the new edi- 
 tion endeavors to assess the problems and pros- 
 pects in the vast continent. The difficulties and ac- 
 complishments are looked at from both-a broad, 
 regional point of view, as well as from a specific, 
 national point of view. The work includes data on 
 the strategic importance of Africa as a continent, 
 and also provides facts and figures on the political, 
 sociological, economic, and military aspects that 
 contribute to the viability of individual African 
 states. More than four thousand books, periodical 
 articles, and monographs, were searched in the 
 preparation of this work. The body of material is 
 supported by 91 appendixes and 53 maps, of 
 which 18 are in color.

 The low-collagen, limed inner hide layer obtained

 thus relieved of their burden of waste discharge, 
 and the animal carcass-rendering companies can 
 benefit from an additional valuable raw material.

 Information developed in field interviews and litera- 
 ture research which form the basis of extensive 
 calculations that pertain to numerous alternative 
 means of converting the sugar crops into fuels and 
 chemical feedstocks is reported. Investigation of 
 numerous candidate fuels and chemical feed- 
 stocks that might be made from sugar crops indi- 
 cates that ethanol and ammonia are the most 
 promising. The projected cost of ethanol by use of 
 well-established fermentation technology on juice 
 extracted from sugarcane or on molasses is ex- 
 pected to be quite close to that projected for eth- 
 anol from natural gas liquids or petroleum by 1980. 
 The ammonia market is substantial (17 million 
 tons), but this key fertilizer and chemical product is 
 expected to cost close to $200 per ton when made 
 from sugar crop residues, well above what ammo- 
 nia made from natural gas at $3 per million Btu 
 costs. However, sugarcane-based ammonia might 
 compete well with coal-based ammonia. Sugar- 
 cane appears to be the most promising sugar crop 
 for conversion to fuels and chemicals in the short 
 and intermediate term. The costs of sugarcane 
 juice and bagasse are lower than for the corre- 
 sponding sugar beet products. Of the sugar crops, 
 sweet sorghum has the greatest long-range 
 appeal for the United States because the crop can 
 grow over a much wider geographical range than 
 can sugarcane. The development of processes to 
 manufacture ammonia, methanol, acetic acid, and 
 thermochemical substitute natural gas (SNG) from 
 sugar crop residues depends on technology to 
 generate synthesis gas. Sugarcane bagasse ap- 
 pears to be the most economic source of furfural. 
 Anaerobic digestion of sugarcane or sugan-con- 
 taining juices to SNG is ruled out on economic 
 grounds. The principal findings of the conversion 
 aspects of the research are summarized quantita- 
 tively. Alternative routes for conversion of sugar 
 crops to fuels and chemicals are presented. (ERA

 The volatility of energy prices, as well as the pre- 
 cariousness of international energy supply, is forc- 
 ing many developing countries to consider new 
 ways to satisfy their energy needs over the next 
 several decades. As a result it is likely that major 
 changes in energy production - distribution sys- 
 tems will occur in large numbers of these coun- 
 tries. A necessary component of the important de- 
 cisions these countries must make, e.g., with re- 
 spect to changes in plans for their economic devel- 
 opment or the introduction of new technologies, is 
 the need to assess the alternatives and plan for 
 their country's current and future energy needs. 
 This working paper discusses the establishment of 
 an Energy Institute for Developing Countries, 
 whose major function would be to assist and work 
 with interested countries in the performance of 
 energy planning and assessment analyses. Other 
 areas to be covered by the Institute include: (1) 
 preparation of methodologies for evaluation and 
 assessment of new technologies for individual 
 countries; (2) generation of data bases of technical 
 coefficients; (3) provision of user manuals, training 
 of technical personnel and extensive consultations 
 with appropriate government officials in develop- 
 ing countries; and (4) support to agencies and or- 
 ganizations in the U.S. concerned with energy 
 problems in developing countries. The paper dis- 
 cusses the need for and characteristics of a com- 
 prehensive energy planning and assessment 
 framework, and a scheme for micro and macro as- 
 sessments of alternative energy technologies. It 
 also lists a series of specific mechanisms for de- 
 veloping appropriate models and data bases, and 
 transferring the results to interested developing 
 countries.

 As a first step toward cost reduction six principles 
 are suggested to enhance the solar energy cost

 reduce the material content per unit area of collec- 
 tor; generate higher temperatures - make better 
 use of second law of thermodynamics; develop 
 commercial size air conditioning units first for 
 economy; and adapt solar energy to current 
 energy handling technology. The "baby power

 The objective of the project is to assess the role of 
 new or adapted technologies in addressing the 
 energy problems of developing countries. This ob- 
 jective is pursued through activities ranging from 
 historical economic analyses of the role of energy 
 in development to assessments of individual tech- 
 nologies carried out in support of research and de- 
 velopment planning. The project, started in 1975, 
 carries a particular emphasis on the energy prob- 
 lems and technologies appropriate to rural devel- 
 opment. A firm tenet of the activity is, however, 
 that the role of individual energy technologies can 
 be understood only through an integrated view of 
 the entire energy system and the way in which that 
 system meshes with the economic and cultural 
 structure of a society. The entire group of LDCs 
 are being examined to develop a better under- 
 standing of the role of energy in development and 
 to project the energy requirements of those coun- 
 tries under alternative growth patterns. Some rep- 
 resentative countries were used as the basis for 
 generic energy technology assessment. Seven 
 countries were chosen as an initial set for analysis 
 based on their representing a range of levels of 
 development, climate, resource base, etc. These 
 countries were India and Kenya (in the low, less 
 than $200 per capita, income group) Ghana and 
 South Korea (in the intermediate income group), 
 and Chile, Brazil and Greece (in the upper, greater 
 than $550 per capita, income group). In construct- 
 ing energy supply-demand models for these coun- 
 tries, emphasis was placed on incorporating data 
 on noncommercial energy use wherever such in- 
 formation was available. (ERA citation 02:013794)

 Some of the implications of the choice between re- 
 newable, decentralized technologies and non- 
 renewable, centralized technologies as applied to 
 developing countries are presented. The focus on 
 developing countries does not imply that the 
 choice is not a pertinent one for developed coun- 
 tries, but only that it is a particularly pressing one 
 for the lesser-developed countries. In order to clar- 
 ify the significance of the distinction between re- 
 newable and depletable resources, two qualifica- 
 tions are made. The resource and its feasible 
 system to use that resource is of primary interest. 
 Sunlight is free but the devices to use that re- 
 source may require a rare metal, which then makes 
 the use of solar energy not renewable. The second 
 qualification is that some resources that are finite 
 such as deuterium as used in fusion reactors have 
 such large abundance that they can be considered 
 renewable. Some specific steps that can be taken 
 to give renewable energy resources an opportunity 
 to compete on a more equal footing with conven- 
 tional fossil and nuclear technologies in the LDCs 
 are: stimulate and support energy planning in de- 
 veloping countries; include appropriate technology 
 in developed country R and D programs; and de- 
 velop and demonstrate technologies in the LDCs. 
 These activities would represent no financial 
 burden to the developed world. A realistic apprais- 
 al of potential renewable resources to meet the 
 future enegy needs of developing countries is im- 
 portant. (ERA citation 02:039519)

 The unique characteristics of the energy situation 
 in developing countries imposes a unique set of re- 
 quirements on analytical techniques used for 
 energy planning. The urgency of the situation re- 
 quires the rapid development and use of simplified 
 models which make maximum use of available 
 data but which can reflect the international energy 
 context. Those techniques must also be able to 
 deal with central energy/development issues such 
 as energy equity or the energy implication of social 
 equity policies, centralized vs. decentralized devel- 
 opment, and urbanization. (ERA citation

 al planning. 
 
 It has been clear that the magnitude and character 
 of a region's energy requirements are intimately re- 
 lated to the spatial configuration and mix of land 
 use activities. To the degree to which they can 
 shape the future configurations of residential, com- 
 mercial, industrial, and transportation activities, 
 local governments and their planners must give 
 serious consideration to the energy implications of 
 those configurations in the light of future social 
 goals and requirements. This Planner's Energy 
 Workbook describes a set of procedures that can 
 be used to carry out community and regional 
 energy analyses. The choice of land use activity 
 parameters and their relation to energy use char- 
 acteristics are associated with the normal planning 
 concepts of land use density, type of residential 
 development, commercial floorspace, industrial 
 sales and employment, and shopping and work trip 
 lengths. At the same time these energy related in- 
 tensity coefficients are expressed in a form that 
 permits the analysis of short-term conservation 
 strategies such as the retrofit of insulation and the 
 introduction of new technologies such as solar 
 energy. An integrating framework is provided to 
 construct total community or area energy con- 
 sumption profiles and future needs; to examine 
 compatibility between area requirements and the 
 energy supply-distribution system serving the area; 
 and to evaluate the implications for energy use of 
 the physical configuration of urban, suburban and 
 rural areas. Two cases illustrate the application of 
 this Workbook. The Long Island area is repre- 
 sentative of major suburban regions throughout 
 the U.S. which have undergone major growth and 
 development. A community redevelopment design 
 in Tuscon, Arizona is typical of rapid and major 
 land use development within the environs of an ex- 
 isting city. (ERA citation 03:01 0551 )

 Two populations of Tilapia mossambica were 
 raised in tanks and their growth (weight and 
 length) recorded for a period of 36 months. The 
 relationship between number and weight is 
 graphed, but was drastically disturbed by acciden- 
 tal mortalities at month 21.1. It never regained reg- 
 ularity after the accident; prior to that it had been 
 regular. (Author)

 A small fishery was conducted for the large com- 
 mercial fresh-water shrimp, Macrobrachium vollen- 
 hovenii, using traps. A second smaller species, M. 
 macrobrachion, was culled from the trap catch for 
 the fishermen's use. The estuarine fishery was 
 seasonal (May to January), during the period of low 
 salinity. Cost of raw tail meats to the consumer 
 was over $1.00 (U.S.) per pound. The fishermen 
 derived more than $7,500 from the fishery. Com- 
 mercial shrimp, M. vollenhovenii, spawned in the 
 estuary from May to January. Fecundity was esti- 
 mated at 12,000 to 45,000 eggs per female. As the 
 embryo developed the color of the egg changed 
 from red to brown. Embryonic and larval develop- 
 ment to time of setting of M. vollenhovenii was be- 
 lieved similar to that of M. rosenbergii 50 to 65 
 days. An intensive push-net fishery was conducted 
 
 on the zero age group soon after the juveniles had 
 set. Juvenile shrimp were not caught by traps.

 The report appraises present and future water 
 needs and analyzes potential yield from sources of 
 water supply. Surface water and ground water con- 
 trol problems are identified. Alternative recommen- 
 dations are made on how to provide water for the 
 area's change over from an agricultural to an in- 
 dustrial economy. These include use of ground 
 water as an economical water source and surface 
 water through reservoirs, wastewater reclamation, 
 and long distance imports. Sea water as a source 
 is reported as uneconomical. Other recommenda- 
 tions: floodways and levees rather than storage 
 reservoirs for flood control. Wastewater disposal in 
 the ocean with disposal in streams to be phased 
 out. Data to be coordinated for guidance in design 
 of water development projects, and strict regula- 
 tion to be provided to avoid waste resulting from 
 increasing competition for water supplies. Detailed 
 maps and figures are included.

 ground in saturated brine with salt added to keep 
 the brine saturated during salting. It can be com- 
 pleted in less than a day. Reports indicate the 
 product is a good ingredient for fishcakes and can 
 be used to make convenience-type heat-and- 
 serve foods. Limited marketing studies indicate 
 good commercial potential for these products 
 when a meat-bone separator is further developed. 
 The report says whiting and related products must 
 be produced on a semi-commercial scale before 
 costs can be assessed, but that estimates indicate 
 they can be competitive wth other products now 
 on the market. (Author)

 The Caribbean Region is examined for its potential 
 to produce greater supplies of food from the sea. 
 The Caribbean people are relatively large consum- 
 ers of fish and spend an important part of their 
 scare foreign exchange to buy fish from other na- 
 tions. In considering the potential of fish and sea- 
 food from these enormous water areas it would 
 appear that importing large supplies of seafood 
 would be unnecessary. Factors to consider in fish- 
 ery development in this area include the political, 
 social and economic aspects, since these deter- 
 mine whether whatever fish is available can be 
 
 transported, marketed and purchased by the 
 people of this area. (Author)

 Four different cage designs ranging in volume from 
 three to 12 cubic yards were each stocked with 
 300 fingerling catfish per cubic yard to determine 
 the effects of the different cage sizes on growth 
 and conversion of the fish. Fingerlings were 
 graded to a uniform size before being stocked in 
 an attempt to eliminate the differential growth. Re- 
 sults indicate that in large reservoir lakes the cage 
 size can be unlimited in surface area and as deep 
 
 as the water containing adequate dissolved 
 oxygen. The depth of the cages had no important 
 bearing on the growth rate and in the cages with 
 the greater surface area the catfish grew more rap- 
 idly and converted food better. It was concluded 
 that differential growth of catfish in cages is a 
 result of initial variance of the fingerling fish and 
 not to hierarchy. Large numbers of wild fish around 
 the cages caused problems of loss of food and 
 possibly introduction of diseases. The wild fish 
 can, however, be effectively trapped in the area of 
 the cages. The economic evaluation indicates the 
 following situations: a small scale operation incor- 
 porated into an existing business such as a marina 
 and a very large scale operation (200,000 or more 
 fish). (Author)

 The study shows that fish can be reared success- 
 fully in tanks, but that production costs under the 
 present system would eliminate all profit. Data are 
 presented to indicate that further studies would be 
 useful. It is stated that recycling of effluent waters 
 can reduce levels of metabolic wastes sufficiently 
 to support fish growth. The report includes evalua- 
 tions of filters and of an oxidation pool to remove 
 wastes, stocking density and diet studies, and re- 
 ports on examinations of plasma proteins, tissue 
 composition, and the liver of channel catfish.

 pounds per cu. ft. of water) in tanks or raceways 
 has great potential. Additional environment re-

 Effect of Crowding on Relation Between Ex-

 An experiment was performed to assess the effect 
 of crowding on yield in Tilapia macrocephala. Pop- 
 ulations of nearly equal number and weight were 
 started in control (155.2 liter) and test (77.6 liter) 
 tanks. Food amounts and environmental attributes 
 other than space were the same for both tanks. 
 Each of the two populations was exploited - first at 
 a bimonthly rate of 10% for 14 months, then at a 
 
 bimonthly rate of 25% for 10 months. Equilibrium 
 yields at each rate for each tank (four points) were 
 fitted with a Fox exponential surplus-yield model. 
 Deviations from this general population curve 
 showed that yields were greater for the larger tank 
 at the 25% rate and greater for the smaller tank at 
 the 10% rate. This is believed to result from the 
 fact that the entire yield came from growth at the 
 lower rate whereas part of the yield came from re- 
 cruitment at the higher rate. A low rate of conver- 
 sion of food to fish (18%) is believed to be due to 
 the large proportion of liver in the diet. (Author)

 An appraisal of the influences on and constraints 
 to the development of aquaculture should be ap- 
 proached through systems models where initial, 
 crude modeling leads to the definition of specific 
 research needs. As such research is undertaken, 
 its results are fed back into more refined models, 
 hopefully soon to answer the overall question: 
 what is the true potential of aquaculture and how 
 can it be attained. (Author)

 The feasibility of developing mechanized harvest- 
 ing systems is discussed. Biological, economic, 
 environmental, and legal constraints on the 
 system design are delineated. The operation of 
 two systems which have been constructed and 
 tested is described. It is concluded that while the 
 technology to construct the system exists, such a 
 system would be economically unfeasible due to 
 the low unit price of harvested Irish Moss. An im- 
 proved manual harvester is also described.

 The University of Miami has been actively involved 
 in developing pompano farming as a viable indus- 
 try, both through its research programs and its 
 consultations with companies involved with pom- 
 pano-rearing. Objectives of this project were to 
 assess the suitability of cages for raising pompano 
 and to measure growth and mortality at stocking 
 densities that would be likely in a commercial oper- 
 ation. This paper presents the results of the above 
 investigation and, on the basis of data collected 
 and observations made, discusses the problems 
 and future of pompano farming as a potential in- 
 dustry.

 The study was undertaken to obtain information on 
 the behavior, comparative efficiences, and de- 
 grees of compatibility of channel catfish and 
 golden shiners when in different combinations and 
 under different spatial limitations. It was found that 
 growth increments of carp (Cyprinus carpio) and 
 tilapia (Tilapia aurea) in mixed culture sometimes 
 exceeded those exhibited by either in monocul- 
 ture. The authors found that the channel catfish, 
 golden shiner and tilapia (T. mossambica) were ex- 
 tremely compatible. When combined, each stimu- 
 lated the other to a faster and stronger feeding re- 
 sponse, which resulted in a more efficient conver-

 There has been a rapid acceleration in efforts to 
 develop skipjack tuna fisheries in the central and 
 western Pacific. This is because the resources of 
 the larger tunas (yellowfin, bigeye, bluefin, and al- 
 bacore) are already being fished at or near the 
 maximum sustainable level. The greatest potential 
 for increased harvest appears to be the skipjack 
 resource. To assist the skipjack development 
 effort, pertinent information on the subject is sum- 
 marized and a bibliography of selected references 
 is included. (Author)

 The technological basis for development of large- 
 scale production of inland water fish, such as carp, 
 buffalo fish, tilapia, and white amur, is reviewed. It 
 is proposed that modern methods of mass produc- 
 tion and fish culture be evaluated and combined to 
 make the production of low-cost food fish feasible 
 and economically attractive. The fish would be 
 processed for maximum recovery of edible flesh by 
 mechanical methods of flesh separation. The 
 minced flesh would be modified and stabilized as 
 required to prepare high-quality frozen fish blocks. 
 These blocks would be suitable for a wide variety 
 of frozen fishery products and convenience foods 
 and could be used as protein additives in orther 
 foods such as processed meats. (Modified author

 cation. Preference has been given to conspicuous 
 external characters such as shape, coloring, and 
 sculptural features. The known geographical distri-

 During this post-war era, the science of fisheries 
 population dynamics grew to maturity through the 
 establishment of workable quantitative theory. The 
 era was also extremely productive in terms of sci- 
 entific planning documents related to national 
 ocean policy. A focal study of national investiga- 
 tions conducted in the northeastern Pacific sug- 
 gests that such investigations have been instru- 
 mental in stimulating growth of the ocean food fish 
 industry and provided information upon which 
 major national and international management de- 
 cisions have been made. In addition, such studies 
 
 have yielded information of value in maintenance 
 of a productive aquatic environment.

 An innovative procedure for developing and build- 
 ing a laboratory digestion unit capable of handling 
 and producing approximately 10 liters of fish pro- 
 tein hydrolysate (FPH) is described. The unit con- 
 sists of a pump, heat exchanger, and holding vat. 
 Comminuted fish is pumped from the holding vat 
 through the heat exchange system and recycled 
 back into the holding vat until the comminuted fish 
 reaches 140F. It is held at this temperature for one 
 half hour at which point the comminuted fish, if ca- 
 pable of autolysis, will have shown a marked de- 
 crease in viscosity. The digestion process frees 
 the fish bones from its fleshy matrix and may be 
 easily separated at this point by sieving or centrifu- 
 gation. The development of the laboratory digester 
 provided a tool with which to determine the autoly- 
 tic capabilities of other fish and fish scrap species. 
 A detailed mineral analyses of bones prepared 
 from seven species of autolyzed fish was conduct- 
 ed as well as preliminary examination on the gen- 
 eral chemical and biological parameters of this au- 
 tolyzed FPH.

 were fed from July 30, 1971 until May 29, 1972 at 
 which time they were harvested. The maximum 
 production achieved in any cage was 575 Ib/cu M. 
 There was no significant difference in net gain or 
 feed conversion due to the different stocking rates, 
 which indicated crowding was not a factor in any of 
 the cages. An analysis of production data indicat- 
 ed there was no significant difference in net gain or 
 feed conversion due to feeding method. (Modified

 The summary of an eight-volume study presents 
 the point of view of the concept of 'economic de- 
 velopment' and of efforts to improve conditions in 
 Indian reservations and communities, as well as to 
 pinpoint factors detracting from the success of 
 such efforts. A number of Indians have participat- 
 ed in the seven studies of individual tribes which 
 form the basis for a comparative analysis. The 
 tribes selected for the study are Lummi, Morongo, 
 Navajo, Papago, Eastern Oklahoma Cherokee, 
 Passamaquoddy, Pine Ridge Oglala Sioux.

 This report highlights the major accomplishments 
 of the initial phase of a three fiscal year project to 
 provide engineering technical assistance to the 
 Agency for International Development (AID) for the 
 development of design criteria for low-cost/ low- 
 rise buildings to better withstand the effects of ex- 
 treme winds. This phase represents approximately 
 a 3 month level of effort. During this period CBT 
 project staff members commenced six introductory 
 tasks. These tasks will set the pace for the second 
 fiscal year level of effort. The tasks included: initi- 
 ate dialogue with local organizations and institutes 
 in developing countries, establish a local Philippine 
 advisory committee; conduct on-site visits to de- 
 veloping countries to identify local professional 
 candidates for short term consultating; conduct 
 on-site visits to developed countries to collect in- 
 formation from research centers; purchase initial 
 wind tunnel and full-scale field test instrumenta- 
 tion; and commence library search of related sub- 
 ject documents.

 There are about eighty co-operative associations 
 in the commercial fisheries of the United States. Of 
 these, the Point Judith Fishermen's Co-operative 
 Association is one of the most successful. Fisher- 
 men are motivated to band together in such orga- 
 nizations by the payment of low prices by fish deal- 
 ers, by high individual costs in getting fish to the 
 market, by the inordinate expense of money and 
 time in obtaining equipment on a retail, individual 
 basis, and by an unsatisfactory supply of producer 
 services beneficial to fishing. As a case study to 
 illustrate and analyse the functioning of co-opera- 
 tive within the framework of Thompson's open 
 system theory the Point Judith Fishermen's Co-op- 
 erative Association is described.

 buildings subjected to the action of earthquakes 
 and wind forces with specific reference to struc- 
 tures typical of developing countries. Potential 
 ways are described in which structures can be 
 made more resistant to such action. Siting consid- 
 erations are discussed from a geological, seismic 
 and climatological viewpoint, and recommenda- 
 tions relating to siting problems are made. Tech- 
 niques of housing construction, both traditional 
 and industrialized, are described and improve- 
 ments resulting in better earthquake or windstorm 
 resistance are suggested. Building codes, their im- 
 provement and their enforcement are also dis- 
 cussed.

 Handcrafts are considered to be an emerging and 
 viable economic force, but their impact must be 
 viewed relative to their setting. They often may 
 generate jobs and income in areas that offer only 
 meager alternatives. Handcrafts preserve our na- 
 tional folk heritage, contribute to our cultural tradi- 
 tions, and provide both recreational and therapeu- 
 tic benefits to handicapped persons, the elderly, 
 and others. Crafts can be produced, individually, 
 by sophisticated urban-oriented artisans and by 
 isolated mountaineers; by urban or rural coopera- 
 tives; by such ethnic groups as Indians, Mexican- 
 Americans, and Alaskan Natives; and by craft cen- 
 ters, where volume production is combined with 
 hand skills. There is growing market for quality 
 crafts that can be supplied in quantity and depen- 
 dably.

 Enteromorpha lingulata (Chlorophyta) and Giffor-

 on opercula of Tilapia aurea cultured in sea water. 
 Fish observed had mild Vibrio and Aeromonas 
 bacterial infections, manifested by abscesses on 
 their opercula and other areas of the body. Algal 
 growth was observed only on the operculum, 
 which appears to be a more suitable attachment 
 site due to its bony nature. Abscessed areas on 
 opercula were devoid of scales. Mechanical abra- 
 sion resulting in scale loss appears to provide a 
 suitable attachment site for algae. Plants exam- 
 ined were small, up to six mm in length. Tufts of 
 algae covered opercular abscesses. Fish did not 
 appear to be attracted to tufts of algae growing on 
 other fish; all fish appeared normal in behavior, ex- 
 hibiting a positive response to feeding and satis- 
 factory growth.

 Polyculture of channel catfish with Tilapia spp. was 
 demonstrated. Recommended harvest size for 
 catfish is 350 g obtainable in one year. T. aurea 
 can produce three crops per year at a weight of 
 over 68.1 g per fish. Sugar mill waste, rum and 
 beer distillery wastes, tuna stickwater, pharmaceu- 
 tical yeasts, and chicken manure were found to be 
 of possible use as local fish feeds. Raceway cul- 
 tures were found to be expensive and are not rec- 
 ommended at this time. In polyculture trials it was 
 found that 9000 kg per hectare per year may be 
 attained. The Lajas Valley appears to be most suit- 
 able for fish culture where some 700 acres, which 
 is too saline for agricultural purposes, could be 
 used.

 'A fishery cooperative consists of a group of indi- 
 vidual fishermen acting together for mutual benefit 
 and is designed to accomplish group objectives.' 
 These group objectives are primarily economic in 
 nature and often directly related to the prices paid 
 to the fishermen for their catch. Common motiva- 
 tions to create fishery cooperatives include exces- 
 sive price fluctuations, weakness of prices at the 
 primary producer level, and/or insufficient storage 
 and processing facilities. The paper reports the 
 findings of a case study which compared the 
 prices received by fishermen prior to and after the 
 establishment of a unique fishery cooperative or- 
 ganization.

 Two populations of Tilapia Mossambica were 
 grown under controlled conditions. After a period 
 of growth and stabilization at about 10 kg and 200 
 fish, exploitation was started; about 50 fish of out- 
 side stock were added to each population to in- 
 crease genetic variability. Recruitment was esti- 
 mated from data of stock, mortality, and catch. Pa- 
 rabolas fitted to the stock-recruitment relation sug- 
 gested greater recruitment in the selectively fished 
 stock than in the unselectively fished one. The ex- 
 ploitation-yield relation was assessed by fitting Fox 
 surplus-yield models to both populations.

 Since the cost effectiveness of solar heat-generat- 
 ing systems decreases as the temperature in- 
 creases, the potential for large-scale use of solar 
 energy for industrial processes is very dependent 
 on the operating temperature of the process. Ex- 
 amination of a sample of the Australian food-proc- 
 essing industry has shown that 70 percent of the 
 heat is used at temperatures below 100 exp C 
 and there is no significant usage above 1 50 exp 
 C. A feasibility study of a typical plant in Melbourne 
 shows that it is technically practicable to phase

 solar energy heating systems into existing proc- 
 esses, and that, using known techniques, over 50 
 percent of the annual heat requirements could be 
 provided by solar collectors. The roof area is ade- 
 quate for the mounting of collectors but space 
 must be found for insulated hot-water tanks to pro- 
 vide thermal storage. Since the gross return on in- 
 vestment in the solar installation is the value of the 
 fuel saved, this is directly related to fuel prices. In a 
 situation where energy prices are changing rapidly, 
 recommendations on cost effectiveness have no 
 lasting significance. The paper describes simple 
 methods of making accurate predictions for specif- 
 ic situations so that plant owners and operators 
 can make their own judgements on cost effective- 
 ness. (ERA citation 01 :01 8935)

 In the food processing industries investigated in 
 this study, the major portion of the heat require- 
 ments were in processes operated with tempera- 
 tures in the 60 to 80 exp C range. Most of the 
 process energy was required at constant tempera- 
 ture. An example of a factor is given to illustrate 
 how solar energy can be integrated with conven- 
 tional fuel so that the solar input is about 58 per- 
 cent of the annual energy usage. It shows that cur- 
 rently available commercial collectors can operate 
 with a positive return on investment within the life 
 of the plant for process temperatures below 50 exp 
 C, but it also highlights the need for an improved 
 commercial collector capable of producing high- 
 temperature water. (ERA citation 01:018936)

 The segment of energy consumption related to 
 space conditioning and water heating in residen- 
 tial, commercial, and institutional buildings is dis- 
 cussed specifically. Within this constraint building 
 energy consumption is discussed, considering 
 three choices: drastic alteration of life style; even 
 greater energy operating costs; or relatively large 
 capital expenditures to reduce building energy 
 consumption. It is concluded that the average ex- 
 isting residence can, through insulation, reduce its 
 energy consumption to 60 percent of present for 
 an expenditure of $500 to $1 000 and a pay back of 
 5 to 1 years. The average existing commercial or 
 institutional building can save even more, although 
 their construction may require less commonplace 
 insulation methods than residences. New con- 
 struction can show greater energy savings at little 
 or no additional construction cost. From data con- 
 tained in reports in the bibliography (10 items), the 
 author again concludes that the average existing 
 residential heating/cooling system (equipment) 
 can be modified or replaced to reduce its energy 
 consumption to 60 percent or even 40 percent of 
 the present at a cost of a few hundred to $3000 as 
 a function of the problem. The possible savings in 
 
 commercial and institutional buildings are equally 
 great. (ERA citation 01:01 9507)

 There clearly seems to be a consensus developing 
 that technological requirements, including ceram- 
 ics, will be sought in the next few decades with 
 regard to (1) substituting common and readily 
 available materials for rarer and therefore dimin- 
 ishing resources, (2) making strong efforts to either 
 conserve energy or develop new sources of 
 energy, (3) protecting the environment, and (4) 
 providing opportunities for more worker satisfac- 
 tion. An attempt is made to relate these objectives 
 to needs and opportunities for ceramics. The fol- 
 lowing considerations are discussed in reference 
 to the ceramic industry: labor-capital requirements, 
 materials resource requirements, energy require- 
 ments, environmental requirements, fabrication re- 
 quirements, and new product requirements. (ERA

 The process heat data base assembled as the 
 result of this survey includes specific process ap- 
 plications from 78 four-digit Standard Industrial 
 Classification (SIC) groups. These applications ac- 
 count for the consumption of 9.81 quadrillion Btu in 
 1974, about 59 percent of the 16.6 quadrillion Btu 
 estimated to have been used for all process heat in 
 1974. About 7 exp 1 / sub 2 percent of industrial 
 process heat is used below 212 exp F (100 exp 
 C), and 28 percent below 550 exp F (288 exp 
 C). In this study, the quantitative assessment of the 
 potential of solar thermal energy systems to pro- 
 vide industrial process heat indicates that solar 
 energy has a maximum potential to provide 0.6 
 quadrillion Btu per year in 1985, and 7.3 quadrillion 
 Btu per year in 2000, in economic competition with 
 the projected costs of conventional fossil fuels for 
 applications having a maximum required tempera- 
 ture of 550 exp (288 exp C). A wide variety of 
 collector types were compared for performance 
 and cost characteristics. Performance calculations 
 were carried out for a baseline solar system provid- 
 ing hot water in representative cities in six geo- 
 graphical regions within the U.S. Specific indus- 
 tries that should have significant potential for solar 
 process heat for a variety of reasons include food, 
 textiles, chemicals, and primary metals. Lumber 
 and wood products, and paper and allied products 
 also appear to have significant potential. However, 
 good potential applications for solar process heat 
 can be found across the board throughout indus- 
 try. Finally, an assessment of nontechnical issues 
 that may influence the use of solar process heat in 
 industry showed that the most important issues are 
 the establishment of solar rights, standardization 
 and certification for solar components and sys- 
 tems, and resolution of certain labor-related 
 issues. (Volume 1 of 3 volumes.). (ERA citation

 The results of a series of tests to evaluate the 
 methane yield from the anaerobic digestion of corn 
 stover are reported. The corn stover, consisting of 
 cob, stalks, and leaves, was milled to pass through 
 a 3.2 mm screen. Particle size distributions were 
 determined. Data are tabulated on the gas produc- 
 tion. Centrifugation and vacuum filtration were in- 
 vestigated for slurry dewatering. Gas production 
 was low and corn stover does not appear to offer 
 any potential as a methane source. In addition the 
 protein content of the slurry solids was not suffi- 
 cient for a satisfactory protein animal feed. (ERA

 Progress is reported in research on the develop-

 methane from organic materials by fermentation. 
 Beef lot and dairy herd manures were used in tests 
 of three types of reactors constructed for the 
 study. They are complete mixed, two-stage, and 
 plug flow reactors. Although there are variations in 
 the data collected, preliminary results indicate that 
 the complete mix reactor exhibits better methane 
 production than either of the other two reactor de- 
 signs. (ERA citation 03:006209)

 A large scale laboratory system was constructed 
 to evaluate the methane yields from various organ- 
 ic materials. The initial substrate for these studies 
 was beef feed lot manure. Methane yields ranged 
 from 0.11 to 0.259 m exp 3 per kg volatile solids 
 fed with a fermentation temperature of 58 exp C. 
 The gas yield for a given manure was a function of 
 retention time. However, fresh manure produced 
 substantially more gas than manure that had been 
 on the lots for several months. Retention times of 
 3.7 days and loadings of 8.76 kg per m exp 3 per 
 day resulted in stable operation. The results of a 
 separate study of the effect of reactor type on 
 
 methane production showed that if a balanced 
 population of organisms can be maintained in the 
 initial stage, a multi-stage fermentation is more ef- 
 ficient than a complete-mix system. However, 
 when the system is stressed, failure of the multi- 
 stage system is more rapid. If the objective is to 
 maximize the conversion of solids to methane, a 
 staged system will produce more methane per unit 
 volume of reactor. If the objective is to maximize 
 methane production per unit volume of reactor, a 
 single stage complete-mix reactor operating at 
 near the critical retention time is required. (ERA ci-

 population of organisms can be maintained in the 
 initial stage, multi-stage fermentation is more effi- 
 cient than a complete-mix system. However, if the 
 system is stressed, failure of the multi-staged 
 system is more rapid. When the first stage is not 
 inhibited due to a short retention time, the waste 
 stabilization in the additional stages is minimal. 
 Further studies on the effect of retention time on 
 reaction rates indicate that the type of reactor 
 design desired will depend upon the objective of 
 the system. If it is desired to maximize the conver- 
 sion of solids to methane, a staged system will pro- 
 duce more methane per unit volume of reactor for 
 a given quantity of substrate. If the objective is to 
 maximize methane production per unit volume of 
 reactor, a single-stage reactor operating at near 
 the minimum retention is required. Results of stud- 
 ies on the fermentation of manures and corn 
 stover are discussed briefly. (ERA citation

 During the past quarter all experimental systems 
 have become operational. The earlier problems 
 with equipment acquisition have delayed the prog- 
 ress somewhat. However, most of these problems 
 have been overcome such that the experimental 
 programs have been initiated. This report will con- 
 centrate on the manure fermentation portion of 
 this project. The study relating to the effect of reac- 
 tor design is underway, but the results are too pre- 
 liminary to evaluate. Therefore, no data from this

 The results to date on the development of a low- 
 cost solar air heater are described. A unique jet- 
 impingement concept is used as the absorber 
 plate-to-air stream heat-transfer mechanism. The 
 program objective is to design, fabricate, test and 
 evaluate the jet-impingement concept collector. 
 For comparison purposes, a baseline parallel-plate 
 collector was analyzed, fabricated and tested. 
 Values for the average jet-heat transfer coefficient 
 are predicted and presented. A computer simula- 
 tion using a nodal network collector model is used 
 to predict collector performance. The predicted ef- 
 ficiency improvement of the jet-plate collector over 
 that of the parallel-plate collector, at a fixed-flow 
 rate of 1.47 kg/min-m2(4SCFM/ft exp 2 ), is ap- 
 proximately 1 1 percent for a one-cover design and 
 9 percent for a two-cover design. If the existing se- 
 lective absorber coating and etched cover glass 
 technology of Honeywell is applied to the jet-plate 
 collector, the resulting performance gain over the 
 baseline parallel-plate collector is 21 percent at 
 the intercept and 35 percent for a typical space 
 heating application. The collector mechanical 
 design effort involved a study of cost effective 
 methods for assembly and material selection. A 
 preliminary recommended design is presented. In 
 summary, it has been recommended that alumi- 
 nized steel sheet, pre-painted with an acrylic paint, 
 be used for the box material. A semi-rigid fiber 
 glass, 2.54-cm (1-inch) thick, with an aluminum 
 facing is recommended for the insulation. A steel 
 absorber plate and a pre-assembled nozzle plate 
 or perforated plate is used for the jet plate. Two 
 sheets of 0.31 8-cm (0.125 inch) tempered, low- 
 iron glass are recommended for the glazings. The 
 baseline parallel plate test results are presented. 
 Since jet-plate collector testing had just com- 
 menced at the time of this writing, we have no test 
 results. (ERA citation 03:008225)

 Research was divided between basic physiological 
 studies of the growth and nutrient-uptake kinetics 
 of macroscopic marine algae and the more applied 
 problems involved in the selection of species and 
 the development of inexpensive, non-energy inten- 
 sive culture methods for growing seaweeds and 
 freshwater plants as a biomass source for conver- 
 sion to energy. Best growth of the seaweeds 
 occurs at low (0.1 to 1.0 mu molar) concentration 
 of major nutrients, with ammonia as a nitrogen 
 source, with rapid exchange of the culture medium 
 (residence time of 0.05 days or less). Of 43 spe- 
 cies of seaweeds evaluated, representatives of the 
 large red alga genus Gracilaria appear most prom- 
 ising with potential yields, in a highly intensive cul- 
 ture system under optimal conditions, of some 1 29 
 metric dry tons per hectare per year (about half of 
 which is organic). Non-intensive culture methods 
 have yielded one-third to one-half that figure. Un- 
 explained periodicity of growth and overgrowth by 
 epiphytes remain the most critical constraint to 
 large-scale seaweed culture. Freshwater weed 
 species in culture include water hyacinth (Eichhor- 
 nia crassipes), duckweed (Lemna minor), and Hy- 
 drilla vertecillata, with yields to date averaging 1 5, 
 4, and 8 g dry wt/m exp 2 /day, respectively. How- 
 ever, these plants have not yet been grown 
 through the winter, so average annual yields are 
 expected to be lower. In contrast to the seaweeds, 
 the freshwater plants grow well at high nutrient 
 concentrations and slow culture volume exchange 
 rates (residence time ca. 20 days or more). Experi- 
 ments were initiated on the recycling of digester 
 residues from the fermentation of the freshwater 
 and marine plants as a possible nutrient source for 
 
 growth of the same species. (ERA citation

 Progress is reported in the continued evaluation of 
 baseline performance of the mobile fermentation 
 system utilizing fresh beef steer residue at 0.25 lb. 
 volatile solids/ft exp 3 /day with a ten day resi- 
 dence time and an operating temperature of 57 
 exp C. Evaluation of the comparative yield from 
 typical aged feedlot pen residue at the same para- 
 metric conditions previously used for the baseline 
 study was initiated. Total daily gas production, as 
 well as specific methane yield, indicated a sudden 
 decrease. This decrease, however, stabilized rela- 
 tively quickly indicating that the material, while 
 having a lower gaseous yield, was not grossly 
 toxic. The 10 day running average of specific meth- 
 ane yield, which acts as a smoothing function for 
 the somewhat more erratic daily yields, indicates a 
 yield of 2.5 ft exp 3 CH sub 4 /pound volatile 
 solids. This represents 60% of that obtained from 
 the fresh residue and is most encouraging. During 
 this period of time the concentration of Total Vola- 
 tile Acid was allowed to rise. That is, no attempts at 
 control (e.g., iron chloride) were made in order to 
 learn what equilibrium value would result. By the 
 end of the reporting period, the TVA concentration 
 was approximately 4000 to 5000 mg/l. (ERA cita-

 A mobile processing unit is being used to investi- 
 gate the feasibility of producing fuel gas and an 
 energy-intensive refeed product from dirt feedlot 
 residues by anaerobic fermentation. Results to 
 date have shown that: a stable fermentation can 
 be achieved utilizing aged feedlot pen residue if a 
 sufficient adaptation period is provided. Methane 
 yields of 2.75 ft exp 3 /pound volatile solids fed 
 can be attained at a loading rate of 0.25 pounds 
 volatile solids/ft exp 3,10 day retention time and 
 thermophilic temperature of 57 exp C. The fer- 
 mentor liquid effluent is acceptable to cattle as a 
 feed ingredient and was used to provide one-half 
 the daily supplemental protein for twenty steers. 
 Residual pharmaceuticals and low levels of heavy 
 metals as well as various anions and cations may 
 possibly impose some additional stress upon the 
 system but do not present a significant detriment 
 to successful operation. Feedlot residue is highly 
 variable in both dry matter and inert content with 
 typical particle size in the micron range. (ERA cita-

 This is the seventh progress report of an on-going 
 three year research effort to contribute to the de- 
 velopment of a new and/or improved technology 
 that will result in wide spread use of an anaerobic 
 fermentation in agriculture to generate a renew- 
 able clean energy source. Activities are now con- 
 centrating on full-scale and pilot-scale demonstra- 
 tion of simplified fermentors for manures. Activities 
 for the seventh quarter year, extending from De- 
 cember 16, 1977 to March 15, 1978, have included 
 the following: completion of construction of the full 
 scale conventional control fermenter; completion 
 of construction, testing and startup of the random 
 mix fermenter; installation of feed and effluent 
 lines, electrical wiring, boilers, gas lines and con- 
 trols; successful testing of the ram pump; conclu- 
 sion of the 35 exp C studies with the pilot scale 
 plug flow fermenter and the initiation of the low 
 temperature (25 exp C) studies; and preparation 
 of a detailed outline to the design manual. As of 
 March 15, 1978, the overall progress achieved 
 with the major components of the project was esti- 
 mated to be about 2.5 months behind the work 
 plan schedule. As detailed in the last progress 
 report, much of this delay has been due to the 
 winter weather (i.e., cold temperatures, snow, 
 frozen ground, etc.) which has interfered with ex- 
 cavation and other outdoor construction activities.

 A comprehensive mathematical model description 
 of anaerobic digestion of animal residues was de- 
 veloped, taking into account material and energy 
 balances, kinetics, and economics of the process. 
 The model has the flexibility to be applicable to 
 residues from any size or type of animal husbandry 
 operation. A computer program was written for this 
 model and includes a routine for optimization to 
 minimum unit gas cost, with the optimization varia- 
 bles being digester temperature, retention time, 
 and influent volatile solids concentration. The 
 computer program was used to determine the opti- 
 mum base-line process conditions and economics 
 for fuel gas production via anaerobic digestion of 
 residues from a 10,000 head environmental beef 
 feedlot. This feedlot at the conditions for minimum 
 unit gas cost will produce 300 MCF/day of meth- 
 ane at a cost of S5.17/MCF (CH sub 4 ), with a 
 total capital requirement of $1,165,000, a total 
 capital investment of $694,000, and an annual 
 average net operating cost of $370,000. The major 
 contributions to this unit gas cost are due to labor 
 (37 percent), raw manure (1 1 percent), power for 
 gas compression (10 percent), and digester cost 
 (13 percent). A conceptual design of an anaerobic 
 digestion process for the baseline conditions is 
 presented. A sensitivity analysis of the unit gas 
 cost to changes in the major contributions to unit 
 gas cost was performed, and the results of this 
 analysis indicate areas in the anaerobic digestion 
 system design where reasonable improvements 
 could be expected so as to produce gas at an eco- 
 nomically feasible cost. This sensitivity analysis in- 
 cludes the effects on unit gas cost of feedlot size 
 and type, digester type, digester operating condi- 
 tions, and economic input data. (ERA citation

 The studies of biological delignification have fo- 
 cused on the adaptation of the lignocellulosic ther- 
 mophilic mold Chrysosporium pruinosum to growth 
 on maple wood fibers. The addition of trace ele- 
 ments and thiamine hydrochloride to the C. pruino- 
 sum growth medium has been found to stimulate 
 culture growth by a factor of about two. The nutri- 
 tional salt tolerances of C. pruinosum have been 
 determined. Nutrient concentrations below of 
 about 2.5 times that required to support C. pruino- 
 sum growth have no significant deleterious inhibi- 
 tory effects. Work on the design and construction 
 of a bench-top high solids biological delignification 
 bioreactor has been initiated. The mixed culture 
 microbiological studies have focused mainly on nu- 
 tritional growth requirements and rates of cellulose 
 digestion and ethanol production. In small test 
 tube mixed culture (sporocytophaga (US) + ther- 
 mophilic bacillus (NW)) fermentations, the rate of 
 cellulose degradation was found to proceed at a 
 very high volumetric efficiency, 2.4 g/l-hr. The yield 
 of ethanol from the mixed culture fermentation of 
 cellulose varied between 24 and 50% of theoreti- 
 cal. The higher yields were obtained in the pres- 
 ence of insoluble calcium carbonate added to 
 retard the rate of pH decline and to increase the 
 CO sub 2 tension. Bench-top fermentations at the 
 1 liter scale have been performed to verify, under 
 controlled pH, agitation, and dissolved oxygen 
 conditions, the results achieved in small scale test 
 tube experiments. The specific growth rate of ther- 
 mophilic bacillus NW on glucose was calculated to 
 be 0.59 hr exp -1 . In mixed culture fermentations 
 of amorphous and microcrystalline cellulose the 
 specific rate of substrate depletion was calculated 
 to be 0.087 hr exp -1 and 0.0346 hr exp -1 , respec- 
 tively. Ethanol production in these fermentor runs 
 was slower than the rates of acetic acid produc- 
 tion. In the fermentation of microcrystalline cellu- 
 lose, 2,3 butanediol was also produced. (ERA cita-

 The objective of this research is to demonstrate on 
 a laboratory scale the technical feasibility of the 
 direct microbial conversion of pretreated wood to 
 ethanol. During the first year of this contract, we 
 investigated the feasibility of biologically delignify- 
 ing wood with C. pruinosum and directly fermenting 
 the pretreated wood to ethanol with a mixed cul- 
 ture. Bench-top fermentations of a thermophilic 
 bacillus growing on glucose and of a mixed culture 
 of thermophilic sporocytophaga (US) and a ther- 
 mophilic bacillus growing on microcrystalline and 
 amorphous cellulose were evaluated for growth 
 and ethanol production. In the mixed culture fer- 
 mentation of amorphous and microcrystalline cel- 
 lulose, the specific rate of substrate depletion was 
 calculated to be 0.087 hr exp -1 and 0.0346 hr exp 
 -1 , respectively. However, defining the growth re- 
 quirements of C. pruinosum and sporocytophaga 
 (US) proved more difficult than originally anticipat- 
 ed. In order to achieve the program objectives 
 within the contract period, a revised research plan 
 was developed based upon chemical pretreatment 
 and the direct fermentation of pretreated hard- 
 wood to ethanol. In place of the biological delignifi- 
 cation pretreatment step, we have substituted a 
 chemically supplemented steam pretreatment 
 step to partially delignify wood and to enhance its 
 accessibility to microbial utilization. Clostridium

 ethanol and acetic acid, has replaced the mixed 
 culture fermentation stage for ethanol production. 
 Research on the production of ethanol from xylose 
 by the thermophilic bacillus ZB-B2 is retained as 
 one means of utilizing the hemicellulose fraction of 
 hardwood. Work on the genetic improvement of 
 the ethanol yields of both cultures by suppressing 
 acetic acid production is also retained. The ration- 
 ale, experimental approach, and economic consid- 
 erations of this revised research plan are also pre- 
 sented. (ERA citation 04:002695)

 Research on the mass culturing of microalgae has 
 been carried out over the past 30 years in many 
 parts of the world. Today there are numerous po- 
 tential applications for algal mass cultures includ- 
 ing protein production, wastewater treatment, 
 water renovation, closed life-support systems, pro- 
 duction of commercial chemicals, aquaculture, and 
 bioconversion of energy. Photosynthetic yields 
 over 30 gr dry wt m exp -2 day exp -1 have been 
 attained on occasion in many locations for short 
 periods and yields between 15 to 25 gr dry wt m 
 exp -2 day exp -1 for longer periods are now 
 common. This apparent upper limit in productivity 
 is not coincidental. Under outdoor conditions peak 
 yields are possible only under conditions of light 
 limitation. Photosynthetic algae absorb light 
 energy and convert it to stored chemical energy 
 under rigid adherence to the laws of thermody- 
 namics. By examining the basic physics of photo- 
 synthesis, it is possible to clearly demonstrate that 
 under conditions of full sunlight in the most ideal 
 locations maximum yields of 30 to 40 gr m exp -2 
 day exp -1 can be expected. For long-term oper- 
 ation of large-scale outdoor cultures, many bioen- 
 gineering factors are involved and realistic yields 
 considerably less than the maximum potential can 
 be anticipated. Manipulation of the two independ- 
 ent variables, flow rate and depth, is the key to 
 maximizing yields for varying outdoor sunlight in- 
 tensities. Future applications for algal mass cul- 
 tures will probably be restricted to small well-man- 
 aged systems for solving specific environmental 
 problems in individual communities and not on the 
 grand scale envisaged in the past. (ERA citation

 There are important markets in Singapore for sev- 
 eral of the product categories under reference e.g., 
 woodworking items. However, the total sawmilling 
 and woodworking industry is not buoyant and in 
 fact, certain sectors (e.g. sawmilling) are quite 
 stagnant. Growth trends for the forseeable future 
 would therefore not be significant. Currently, 
 awareness of the U.S. range of products is poor. 
 Most respondents had no prior experience with 
 U.S. equipment. Several misconceptions were evi- 
 dent; for example, it was felt that: U.S. equipment 
 is highly priced or even over-priced; U.S. equip- 
 ment, because of its high level of sophistication, is 
 often not relevant to local operating requirements. 
 Sales potential for the immediate future is general- 
 ly poor. Of the total range of items under review, 
 respondents indicated that the items more likely to 
 be purchased within the next two years would 
 probably include portable sawmills, molders, plan- 
 ing machines, drilling machines, and materials 
 handling equipment.

 A preliminary assessment of the near-term market 
 for photovoltaic water pumping applications is pre- 
 sented. One of the objectives of the Department of 
 Energy's (DOE) National Photovoltaic Program is 
 to stimulate the demand for photovoltaic power 
 systems so that appropriate markets will be devel- 
 oped in the near-term to support the increasing 
 photovoltaic production capacity also being devel- 
 oped by DOE. Water pumping applications repre- 
 sent such a potential market for photovoltaics. The 
 price of energy for photovoltaic systems is com- 
 pared to that of utility line extensions and diesel 
 generators. The potential "domestic" demand is 
 defined in the government, commercial/institution- 
 al and public sectors. The foreign demand and 
 sources of funding for water pumping systems in 
 the developing countries are also discussed brief- 
 ly. It is concluded that a near-term domestic 
 market of at least 240 megawatts (peak) and a for- 
 eign market of about 6 gigawatts (peak) exists and 
 that significant market penetrations should be pos- 
 sible beginning in the 1981-82 period. (ERA cita-

 The medical library needs of Indonesia were sur- 
 veyed and recommendations for improving the ex- 
 isting situation are made based on the results of 
 the survey. The survey indicates that: (1 ) the library 
 collections are out of date and inadequate, (2) 
 there is a need for more and better trained medical 
 librarians and library assistants; (3) there is no 
 modern circulation system for charging out books, 
 (4) generally there is no good coordinated library 
 service between the medical schools and the 
 teaching hospitals and (5) many of the institutions 
 surveyed have no library facilities at all. It is recom- 
 mended that a Library Development Committee be 
 appointed under the Ministry of Health and that 
 this committee start working out a Master Plan at 
 once. It is further recommended that two library 
 administrators be sent abroad to see: (1) how the 
 modern medical library is organized and managed, 
 (2) how the modern medical library is used for edu- 
 cation, research and clinics and (3) how library 
 technology is developing to meet the daily needs. 
 It is highly recommended that the publication and 
 library routine work be mechanized. (Author/NH)

 these aspects are understood can well-balanced 
 educational programs for the training of librarians

 Special libraries are defined in this paper as those 
 libraries serving such institutions as government 
 offices, private corporations, associations, and uni- 
 versity departments. Information centers are simi- 
 lar to special libraries but provide personalized, 
 high quality reference service, usually in science 
 and technology, and often using mechanical or 
 electronic methods for document code storage 
 and retrieval. West Asia is that essentially moslem 
 area bound by the United Arab Republic and 
 Turkey on the West and West Pakistan on the 
 East, reaching the border of the USSR on the 
 North and the Arabian Sea on the South. It con- 
 tains about twenty countries, depending on how 
 the Gulf and Trucial States are counted, and two 
 hundred million people, in an area of 3,500 by 
 2,000 miles. The USSR, India, Sudan, Libya, and 
 Morocco are omitted from this area as being rela- 
 tively separate from it in culture, orientation, or ge- 
 ography. While only a guess, it may be estimated 
 that the area as a whole contains between 15,000 
 and 20,000 libraries of all kinds, of which perhaps 
 1,500 are special libraries or technical information 
 centers. The majority of the grand total are very 
 small school libraries with public libraries counting 
 the second highest number. On the other hand, 
 most of the better ones are either academic or 
 special libraries. This survey is presented on a 
 country by country basis. Fifteen of the countries

 Although numerous outstanding research collec- 
 tions as well as able professional librarians exist in 
 South and West Asia, many people find Asian li- 
 braries difficult to use. Often researchers need 
 specialized data which is hard for them to locate in 
 the limited time available. This paper's purpose is 
 to provide practical suggestions for scholars about 
 overcoming the difficulties of using Asian libraries. 
 It is intended to assist researchers in all fields, in- 
 cluding those working on dissertations, and is writ- 
 ten to help them change a frustrating and disap- 
 pointing year into one more rewarding. These re- 
 marks are applicable for those parts of Asia which 
 the author has visited: India, Pakistan, eleven more 
 moslem, one Hebrew and one Christian country 
 extending West to the U.A.R. and North to Turkey- 
 and for those researchers whose material location 
 problems are similar to the Asian reference prob- 
 lems with which the author has already dealt. (LI

 Forum at Vancouver, Canada. During that period 
 they had collected a number of documents from 
 the various organizations and institutes that took 
 part in the Forum. This annotated bibliography has 
 been made as an attempt to disseminate the infor- 
 mation acquired, and to complement a recently 
 published 'Provisional Annotated Bibliography on 
 Low Cost Housing and Related Topics' prepared 
 by the East-West Technology and Development 
 Institute. Both bibliographies are designed to 
 become the stepping stone for a continuous un- 
 dertaking of updating all information relevant to the 
 subject matter. Countries represented at the work- 
 shop were: Indonesia; India; Korea; Pakistan; Phil-

 The positive and negative aspects of using film as 
 a medium for inducing change in developing na- 
 
 tions are explored in this issue. Critics of the use of 
 film for development cite (1) the culture specific 
 nature of film content of foreign produced films; (2) 
 the technical, economic, and logistical problems of 
 in-country production; and (3) lack of visual literacy 
 among rural audiences. Proponents of film for de- 
 velopment respond that film has greater impact 
 than simpler media, that visual literacy is rapidly 
 being developed, and that new technology already 
 offers possibilities for lower cost and decentralized 
 film and videotape production. Current uses of film 
 in developing nations are described.

 The educational reform effort begun in 1968 in El 
 Salvador is described in both English and Spanish. 
 The first stage was aimed at alleviating the bottle- 
 neck in the school system at the junior high school 
 level. Although the technology of instructional tele- 
 vision was the most visible and highly publicized 
 element of El Salvador's educational reform, it rep- 
 resented only one part of a fundamental and com- 
 prehensive change in the El Salvador school 
 system. The reform's major components were new 
 curricula, retrained teachers, student workbooks, 
 teacher guides, and instructional television. Evalu- 
 ation results showed increases in student learning 
 and favorable student attitudes, but problems with 
 teacher morale. Also discussed are cost issues 
 and the future of the graduates of the reformed 
 education system.

 The use of video taping as a technique to bring 
 villagers into meaningful communication with each 
 other and with government leaders is discussed. 
 Three pilot projects are described: (1) a United Na- 
 tions funded project in Rajasthan, India; (2) a Tan- 
 zanian project involving several villages; and (3) 
 the Skyriver, Alaska project. As demonstrated by 
 these three projects, video taping technology 
 shows potential for opening direct lines of commu- 
 nication between rural people and government 
 agencies, gives villagers an opportunity to see 
 themselves as part of a community, and raises 
 community activism through participation in the 
 formulation of community problems and solutions. 
 However, the video technology must be part of a 
 systematic process suited to local conditions 
 before it can fulfill its potential.

 modern sense, describes its essential elements, 
 and discusses situations in which the use of tech- 
 nology is most appropriate and efficient. He also 
 provides a formula for failure in educational tech- 
 nology developed from practical experience. Ther- 
 eza Penna Firme discusses the role of television 
 as a technology in the lives of childen, comments 
 on the importance of tne human element in tech- 
 nology, and emphasizes that all educational mes- 
 sages should be simple enough to be understood, 
 relevant, and stimulating. Also in this issue is a de-

 This issue focuses on uses and techniques of 
 radio for educational purposes in developing na- 
 tions. Two health education projects are described 
 which are utilizing open broadcasting to attract a 
 mass audience of listeners not committed to a 
 structured radio education program. Kenya's Swa- 
 hili language radio serial, 'Giving Birth and Caring 
 for your Children,' utilizes three popular radio co- 
 medians in an improvised dialogue integrating 
 health information with humor. In Nicaragua, six 
 one-minute radio messages on health topics will 
 be broadcast ten to fifteen times per station per 
 day for an entire year; this approach is based on 
 commercial advertising strategy and philosophy. 
 Also included in this issue are a report from the 
 International Conference on Adult Education and 
 Development held in Tanzania, and two reports on 
 the use of folk culture in media development.

 The lead article discusses the results of a series of 
 experiments in rural Alaska in which telemedicine 
 was used to improve the delivery of health care to 
 
 isolated populations. The author, Dennis Foote, 
 also discusses the implications of these experi- 
 ments for planning telemedicine systems in other 
 areas. Satellite communication and a centralized 
 computer based problem oriented medical record 
 system played a major role in the project. A second 
 article describes three educational endeavors in 
 Tanzania: (1) Adult Education Year (1970); (2) Man 
 is Health, a campaign designed to create an 
 awareness of specific health problems among the 
 rural population; and (3) Food is Life, a program to 
 raise the level of functional literacy about the nutri- 
 tional values of different foods. Also included are 
 excerpts from a letter describing problems faced 
 by a rural development communicator in India.

 Three articles are bound by two assumptions: (1) 
 mass media can play a key role in nutrition educa- 
 tion in developing nations, and (2) the full potential 
 of mass media nutrition education programs will 
 not be realized until project evaluation becomes 
 more rigorous. Mark Rasmuson traces the evolu- 
 tion of mass media in nutrition education and de- 
 scribes three widely used media approaches. 
 Joanne leslie links the elements of a successful 
 nutrition education project to the elements of a 
 well conducted evaluation. In a second article, she 
 reviews five nutrition projects and their evalua- 
 tions. Also included in this bulletin is an account of 
 a development project for educational radio which 
 failed.

 The report describes the Rural Environmental As- 
 sistance Program, the Federal Government shares 
 with farmers and ranchers and the cost of carrying 
 out approved soil, water, woodland, and wildlife 
 conservation and pollution-abatement practices 
 on their land. The program places emphasis on the 
 carrying out of long-term, enduring conservation 
 and pollution-abatement measures on farm and 
 ranch lands in all States, Puerto Rico, and the 
 Virgin Islands. The program will speed up and/or 
 make possible the carrying out of needed conser- 
 vation and environmental protection and enhanc- 
 ing measures in rural America. The impact on the 
 
 environment will be beneficial and largely cumula- 
 tive. The stimulus of this program sets in motion 
 total direct investments in a wide variety of conser- 
 vation and pollution-abatement practices, by close 
 to a million farmers and ranchers a year, amount- 
 ing to double the public contribution. Adverse envi- 
 ronmental effects of major consequence would not 
 be anticipated, if good management is carried out 
 by program participants. Some minor adverse en- 
 vironmental impacts may occur during the con- 
 struction of water storage facilities, terraces, diver- 
 sions, pollution-abatement, and other such meas- 
 ures, and during the establishment of vegetative 
 cover and tree plantings because of soil being 
 open for a short period of time to potential erosion 
 and noise from construction and tillage equipment.

 The energy demand for Latin America will be satis- 
 fied by the end of the present century mainly 
 
 through utilization of its conventional hydraulic and 
 fossil resources. Nuclear energy will experience a 
 great development in Argentina, Brazil, and 
 Mexico in the coming 20 years. The electronuclear 
 alternative in other Latin American countries will 
 be considerable depending on the degree of indus- 
 trialization, geographical location and the possibili- 
 ties for interconnecting networks for transmission

 The major environmental issues associated with 
 the further development of solar energy as a 
 source of process heat in the industrial and agricul- 
 tural sectors are presented and prioritized. Agricul- 
 tural and industrial heating represents the specific 
 application of a variety of Federally-funded solar 
 technologies. To provide a background for this en- 
 vironmental analysis, the basic concepts and tech- 
 nologies of solar process heating are reviewed. 
 The potential effects of these applications of solar 
 energy on the full range cf environmental con- 
 cerns (e.g., air and water quality, biosystems, 
 safety, social/institutional structures) are then dis- 
 cussed in terms of both their relative significance 
 and possible solutions. Although the development 
 of solar energy as a source of process heat will 
 contribute to some environmental problems 
 common to construction projects and energy-pro- 
 ducing technologies (e.g., construction noise, ther- 
 mal discharge to the air and water), only those im- 
 pacts unique to the solar portion of the technology 
 are discussed in depth. Finally, an environmental 
 work plan is presented, listing research and devel- 
 opment proposals and a National Environmental 
 Policy Act (NEPA) document work plan which 
 might help clarify and/or alleviate specific environ- 
 mental and safety problems. (ERA citation

 this handbook is to provide local officials with guid- 
 ance regarding how they may assess, plan, and 
 manage the socio-economic impacts of such de- 
 velopment. Key areas of discussion in this report 
 include: employment; personal income; housing; 
 education; transportation; water supply; solid 
 waste collection and disposal; waste water treat- 
 ment; health care; recreation; and safety. It is unre- 
 alistic to expect the typical small community to de- 
 velop capabilities to independently evaluate a 
 highly technical development which to them is a 
 one-time occurrence. Thus, local officials must be 
 aware of resources which they may tap for infor- 
 mation and assistance at other levels of govern- 
 ment. This handbook advises local officials on how 
 they should organize to most effectively participate 
 in assessing, planning, and managing energy de- 
 velopment and how to insure that information is 
 collected and analyzed to reflect local priorities 
 and future planning needs. (ERA citation

 To achieve the objectives of ERDA's Community 
 Systems Program, physical and institutional char- 
 acteristics that determine a community's levels 
 and patterns of energy use must be defined and 
 methods of coordinating its energy systems estab- 
 lished. In Chapter 1, Managing Rapid Growth to 
 Achieve the Goals of Energy-Related Community 
 Development, the goals are identified and the de- 
 velopment activities and management functions 
 constituting an effective approach to achieving 
 them are defined. The characteristic problems of 
 rapid growth are described and their causes 
 traced. In Chapter 2, Identifying Elements of a 
 Community-Development Approach Applicable to 
 the Rapid-Growth Context, a number of domestic 
 and European community-development ap- 
 proaches that might be applicable to managing 
 rapid growth in the boomtown context are sur- 
 veyed. Applicable elements of a number of U.S. 
 mechanisms and of two French community-devel- 
 opment approaches that can serve as the basis for 
 formulating an organizational approach are identi- 
 fied. In Chapter 3, Formulating a General Commu- 
 nity-Development Approach, the effectiveness of 
 the approach, its adaptability to the boomtown 
 context, and its capability for achieving the goals of 
 energy-related development are demonstrated. In 
 Chapter 4, Adapting the General Approach to 
 Mercer County, North Dakota, the complex rapid- 
 growth situation in Mercer County, North Dakota, is 
 described. Chapter 5 is entitled, Defining the Limi- 
 tations of the Mercer County Approach and the 
 General Approach. The content of Volume I is sup- 
 plemented and supported by a series of appen- 
 dixes, assembled in Volume II. (ERA citation

 hol-gasoline fuel system based on alcohols de- 
 rived from biomass resources. Technological and 
 economic factors of the production and use of bio- 
 mass-based methanol and ethanol fuels are evalu- 
 ated relative to achieving 5 or 10 percent alcohol- 
 gasoline blends by 1990. It is concluded the maxi- 
 mum attainable is a nationwide 5 percent methanol 
 or ethanol-gasoline system replacing gasoline by 
 1990. Relative to existing gasoline systems, costs 
 of alcohol-gasoline systems will be substantial.

 This research effort performs a thorough survey of 
 the state-of-the-art in each of the fields related to 
 the community planning project for energy man- 
 agement and conservation. Appendix A describes 
 the results of that survey. In attempting a major, 
 interdisciplinary research and development project 
 such as this one, it is necessary to integrate theory 
 and practice from several fields. These include 
 land use planning, political science, public admin- 
 istration, urban development, mechanical engi- 
 neering, systems analysis, and the atmospheric 
 sciences. The survey of current knowledge that 
 was performed resulted in three major outputs. 
 The first is an extensive bibliography of printed ma- 
 terials which are related to this project. The bibliog- 
 raphy is presented as Appendix B at the conclu- 
 sion of this document. The second major product 
 of this task is an extensive set of abstracts of those 
 relevant materials reviewed; this set of abstracts 
 forms Appendix C. The third output of the survey is 
 a set of reports of personal contacts with individ- 
 uals or organizations that were either already 
 working in the field of community energy analysis 
 or were working in related fields. All contacts made 
 were documented and contact reports are includ- 
 ed in Appendix D. Appendix E is a description of 
 community decision-making processes. (ERA cita-

 The human health impact of development projects 
 conducted in emerging countries by international 
 corporations is discussed. It is felt that the impact 
 of such a project should be considered from the 
 point of view of people residing in an area, the pro- 
 ject's future neighbors, and those newly attracted 
 to the project site. The direct health impact of a 
 development project is examined in relation to 
 communicable disease control, housing and sani- 
 tary facilities, dietary change, and the increased 
 risk of road accidents. Direct health impacts of a 
 development project on workers are concerned 
 with work accidents, exposure to chemical and 
 physical hazards, exposure to local diseases, and 
 new disease vectors. The introduction of a major 
 new project into a developing area is likely to 
 create significant demands for a variety of social 
 services, including medical care for project person- 
 nel and their dependents and for people ordinarily 
 attracted to a development site. In addition, public 
 health measures such as monitoring the safety of 
 water and food supplies, the enforcement of sani- 
 tary regulations, and the control of disease vectors 
 must be considered. Planning for health care in a 
 development project must encompass therapeu- 
 tic, preventive, and environmental services. A list 
 of references is provided.

 A system is described that includes both preven- 
 tive and corrective maintenance for a small hospi- 
 tal, based on experience at the 142-bed Westerly 
 Hospital in Rhode Island. Equally applicable to any 
 small health care organization such as a nursing 
 home, the system is based on a program of weekly 
 inspection and maintenance. The following system 
 elements are included: work order form and proce- 
 dures for its utilization, full set of equipment data 
 records, and weekly schedule for comprehensive 
 preventive maintenance. Maintenance service 
 needs are communicated by hospital staff to the 
 maintenance department via the work order. 
 Equipment data records contain the item and its 
 description, name of manufacturer, initial installa- 
 tion cost, date when put in service, and equipment 
 specifications. It is noted that the weekly schedule 
 should remain flexible to enable the maintenance 
 supervisor to use the skills of his employees to 
 best advantage. A weekly maintenance schedule 
 form which is coded to denote three categories of 
 maintenance (overhaul, clean, and functional 
 check) can be of assistance to the supervisor in 
 determining the number of man-hours needed for 
 the week, in general and for specific pieces of 
 equipment. The system can be further refined for 
 the purpose of charge - back accounting by key- 
 punching certain data from work orders, and this 
 information can be computerized to provide total 
 man-hours, total maintenance costs, and accumu- 
 lated totals of man-hours for individual classifica- 
 tion.

 A series of articles on health care in developing 
 countries is presented by the World Health Organi- 
 zation with emphasis on the condition of rural 
 dwellers and solutions to their particular health 
 problems. The following health care systems are 
 noted for various countries: health care delivery 
 system of the People's Republic of China, national 
 health system in Cuba, Chimaltenango develop- 
 ment project in Guatemala, Ayurvedic system of 
 medicine in India, comprehensive rural health proj- 
 ect in Jamkhed (India), community development 
 approach to raising health standards in Central 
 Java (Indonesia), health services development 
 project in Iran, village health teams in Niger 
 (Maradi Department), meeting basic health needs 
 in Tanzania, and simplified medicine in Venezu- 
 elan health services. The examples of health care 
 presented in the articles are considered to fall into 
 three overlapping types of systems: (1) national 
 exchange (China, Cuba, Tanzania); (2) extensions 
 of existing systems (Iran, Niger, Venezuela); and 
 (3) local community development (Guatemala, 
 India, Indonesia). Four interconnected solutions 
 are identified for health care financing: reallocate 
 health resources more equitably between all seg- 
 ments of a population, introduce a program of self- 
 reliance and self-sufficiency to all segments of a 
 population, reserve a larger proportion of national 
 health funds for the development and capital costs 
 of primary health care services, and redesign exist- 
 ing government - supported and other health serv- 
 ices to provide a more clearly defined supporting 
 role.

 Educational activities within a family planning pro- 
 gram are discussed in a report prepared under 
 contract to DHEW's Bureau of Community Health 
 Services. It is assumed that in-clinic education is 
 important in family planning programs, and, based 
 on this assumption, techniques for developing a 
 family planning education program are suggested. 
 Such techniques include problem identification 
 and analysis, resource identification and use, and 
 educational plan development. The goals and ob- 
 jectives of an educational plan are noted, and a 
 checklist is provided for evaluating a family plan- 
 ning education program. The selection, develop- 
 ment, and use of family planning educational mate- 
 rials are addressed, with emphasis on the advan- 
 tages of educational materials, educational materi- 
 al guidelines, selecting from among family plan- 
 ning educational materials (printed, visual, and 
 audiovisual materials), development of family plan- 
 ning educational materials, and appropriate use of 
 materials. A model is described for the develop- 
 ment of contraceptive educational materials which 
 covers birth control pills, intrauterine devices, dia- 
 phragms, contraceptive creams and jellies, contra- 
 ceptive foams, voluntary sterilization, and rhythm. 
 A bibliography of family planning materials is pro- 
 vided.

 Case studies are presented of primary health care 
 projects undertaken in underdeveloped countries 
 to identify the key factors in the success of such 
 systems and to observe the effect of these factors 
 in political, economic, and administrative frame- 
 works. It appears that in underdeveloped coun- 
 tries, malnutrition and parasistic and infectious dis- 
 ease (including vector-borne, gastroenteric, and 
 respiratory disease) are the main factors affecting 
 health. Promising health programs were studied by 
 World Health Organization and UNICEF teams in 
 Bangladesh, Cuba, India, Niger, Nigeria, Tanzania, 
 and Venezuela. In addition, visits were made to 
 China and Yugoslavia. In some countries, there 
 are complete countrywide health systems with a 
 network of health workers from village to factory. 
 In other countries, few resources are available and 
 villagers are trained in the rudiments of primary 
 care, disease prevention, and health education. 
 They function as care-providers at the village level 
 under the supervision (sometimes by two-way 
 radio) of regional health care providers. Some- 
 times traditional medicine (acupuncture and Ayur- 
 vedic physicians in China and India) is incorporat- 
 ed with modern medical practice. The innovations 
 reviewed in this article are sufficiently promising to 
 warrant a major change in policy and direction per- 
 mitting programs of the type described in the case 
 studies to be fostered, extended, adapted, and 
 used as examples for a large scale global program.

 The effects of combining prenursing students and 
 experienced registered nurses in the same bacca- 
 laureate program are examined in the context of 
 the experience of medical-surgical nursing courses 
 attended by both types of students. Out of 36 stu- 
 dents enrolled for the 8-week course, ten were 
 registered nurses with varied experiential back- 
 grounds, including a director of nursing services, a 
 nurse with one year's experience in a coronary 
 care unit, several nurses with psychiatric experi- 
 ence, and some who had limited medical-surgical 
 experience. The beginning nursing students in the 
 same course had had two years of general educa- 
 tion courses, including three science courses, a 
 foundation course in nursing, and a 6-week 
 summer session in clinical nursing. At the begin- 
 ning of the course, the instructor discussed with 
 both groups the reasons for their joint participation 
 in the course. The greatest confusion and appre- 
 hension about the course was expressed by the 
 prenursing students. Initially, the beginning stu- 
 dents seemed concerned about the registered 
 nurses' greater ability to participate in class discus- 
 sions. However, as the course progressed, their 
 confidence and participation increased. In their 
 evaluations of the course, both gioups described 
 the advantages and disadvantages of joint partici- 
 pation. Registered nurses particularly felt that di- 
 viding the class into separate groups for clinical 
 sessions was valuable, as this provided an oppor- 
 tunity for each group to proceed at its own rate. In 
 a subsequent 8-week course, only two registered 
 nurses were involved. The exchange of ideas be- 
 tween the basic students and the two registered 
 nurses in this course is described as gratifying. The 
 importance of looking at each registered nurse stu- 
 dent as an individual when considering combining 
 experienced nurses and new students in baccalau- 
 reate programs is emphasized. It is suggested that 
 registered nurse students be provided opportuni- 
 ties to prove their expertise not only by paper tests 
 but in clinical situations, so that the courses they 
 are required to take will be the courses they need.

 presented in a manual directed to the educational 
 specialist or person responsible for the education- 
 al services of a family planning program. Methods 
 and techniques for assisting couples in developing 
 positive attitudes and behavior in regard to family 
 planning are discussed. The manual, which is in- 
 tended as a general framework for planning, pro- 
 vides direction in charting an educational plan and 
 in taking the first steps toward implementing the

 Quantitative methods and techniques for health 
 planning and management are described in a 
 manual directed to developing nations. The cata- 
 log of health sector analysis methods has two pur- 
 poses: (1) to present a selection of past analyses 
 of components of the health sector; and (2) to 
 evaluate these analyses in terms of their ability to 
 identify choices in allocating scarce resources 
 among competing objectives, activities, or strate- 
 gies; to evaluate the consequences of alternative 
 decisions in terms of health, economic improve- 
 ment, and cost; and to identify the preferred alter- 
 native given available information, skills, and re- 
 sources. Application of health sector analysis 
 techniques is described at the national, regional, 
 single facility, and single program level. The 
 manual opens with a discussion of the constraints 
 in using quantitative methods and techniques. Pro- 
 gram budgeting applications are then described in 
 both developed and developing countries, and ex- 
 amples of cost-effectiveness analysis are offered 
 for cholera and malaria. Forecasting and oper- 
 ations research techniques are described at the 
 health program management level. Examples are 
 presented of methods for identifying data, organiz- 
 ing data into information, and analyzing and man- 
 aging information in decisionmaking. Methods in- 
 cluded are time series analysis, regression analy- 
 sis, simple population and utilization projections, 
 queuing and inventory theory, and network analy- 
 sis. Analytic or optimizing models, including linear 
 and dynamic mathematical programming and Mar- 
 kovian analysis, are described. Allocation models 
 are described for decisionmaking in regard to tu- 
 berculosis, allocating, personnel moving patients, 
 and environmental health. Supporting data, 
 
 graphs, flow diagrams, and a bibliography are in- 
 cluded.

 A comprehensive community approach to rural 
 health care is described as economical in that it 
 emphasizes the use of existing community re- 
 sources, auxiliary personnel, and appropriate tech- 
 nology. Activities relating to the development of 
 the community approach in rural areas of develop- 
 ing countries are noted. The context in which rural 
 health problems occur is explored. Poverty, isola- 
 tion, and a lack of adequate basic health facilities 
 contribute to rural health problems. Other factors 
 which continue to characterize rural life in tropical 
 and subtropical developing areas and which have 
 a special bearing on health include reliance on ag- 
 riculture and the employment of manpower rather 
 than machines, the extended family system, large 
 family size and crowded living conditions, the low 
 status of women, early marriage and frequent 
 childbearing, high illiteracy rates, conservative 
 leadership, a high incidence of alcoholism, and the 
 existence of an intricate socioreligious system 
 which affects the interpretation and treatment of 
 disease. The comprehensive community approach 
 to health problems in rural developing areas is 
 viewed as one which helps individuals and commu- 
 nities to perceive their health needs and assist 
 them in using their internal and external resources 
 to meet those needs. Eleven characteristics of the 
 comprehensive community approach are delineat- 
 ed.

 The overall objective of the two multidisciplinary 
 working groups of the Pan American Health Orga- 
 nization was to develop a methodology for plan- 
 ning, organizing, and controlling programs in order 
 to extend the coverage of health programs in rural 
 areas. An organizational methodology is proposed 
 for the extension of health service coverage to 
 rural areas. The methodology is programmatic and 
 involves an analysis of the situation, the definition 
 of objectives and target populations, the determi- 
 nation of requirements, and execution. The pro- 
 posed rural health program has three subpro- 
 grams: (1) health care (maternal and child health 
 and other direct health activities); (2) basic sanita- 
 tion (water and excreta); and (3) statistics (statis- 
 tics for health services and vital statistics). The role 
 of rural communities in the utilization of health 
 services and the implementation of the proposed 
 rural health program is discussed. Functions and 
 training requirements for auxiliary personnel work- 
 ing in rural areas are identified. Data are tabulated 
 on the assignment of tasks in a rural health pro- 
 gram. The infrastructure of the proposed rural 
 health program is detailed, with emphasis on plan- 
 ning, organization, execution, control, and supervi- 
 sion. Forms and guidelines are included for the 
 conduct of a rural health program. A list of refer- 
 ences is provided.

 The elements of the community development ap- 
 proach as it is applied to solving health problems in 
 the rural areas of developing countries are de- 
 scribed. It is first explained that the term 'communi- 
 ty development' refers to a well-defined approach 
 that relies on the active participation and initiative 
 of the community itself. In applying the compre- 
 hensive community approach to solving health 
 problems, it is necessary to view health activities 
 within the context of planned national develop- 
 ment. Long-term objectives include the evolution 
 of members of rural communities into healthy citi- 
 zens capable of sharing in health care responsibil- 
 ities. In applying the comprehensive community 
 approach, each country develops a specific pat- 
 tern consistent with its own traditions, circum- 
 stances, and goals. Emphasis is placed on the 
 concepts of integrated development, appropriate 
 technology, and the employment of new catego- 
 ries of health personnel. Appreciation of the socio- 
 cultural context within which health-related activi- 
 ties occur is essential as individual rural communi- 
 ties are helped to identify and prioritize their health 
 needs in accordance with balanced local and na- 
 tional development. Self-help on the part of the 
 communities is facilitated in part through special 
 training for community leaders. While all members 
 of the community are involved in the development 
 effort, emphasis is placed on the involvement of 
 women due to their influence on family health. 
 Changes in attitudes are viewed as being as impor- 
 tant as material changes.

 The second volume in a series of annotated bib- 
 liographies on low-cost rural health care and man- 
 power training brings together information on non- 
 traditional health care delivery systems in remote 
 regions of the world, particularly in developing 
 countries. The literature abstracted focuses pri- 
 marily on new models of health care delivery and 
 on the training and use of auxiliary health workers. 
 The bibliography is directed to persons involved in 
 planning, operating, and evaluating rural health 
 services, in training auxiliary health workers to de- 
 liver such services, and in supporting research into 
 the problems of organizing and staffing rural health 
 care delivery systems. The entries are grouped 
 under five major subject headings: reference 
 works; organization and planning (health manpow- 
 er, organization and administration, planning, geo- 
 graphic distribution of services, financial and cul- 
 tural aspects, studies of epidemiology, family plan- 
 ning, maternal and child health, and nutrition); pri- 
 mary health care implementation (rural inpatient 
 and outpatient care, mobile services, community 
 health education); primary health manpower train- 
 ing and utilization (primary medical care, nursing 
 care, family planning, midwifery care, dental care, 
 laboratory care, environmental health); and formal 
 evaluative studies. Approximately 700 books, jour- 
 nal articles, reports, studies, surveys, and unpub- 
 lished documents are abstracted. Author, subject, 
 and geographic indexes are provided, as are order 
 coupons for obtaining materials through the Inter- 
 national Development Research Centre in Ottawa.

 In 1972 England spent $100 per person to operate 
 health services, the U.S. spent $180, but the Ethio- 
 pian government spent less than 70 cents for the 
 health care of each of its 22 million people. In de- 
 veloping countries at least one-half of all deaths 
 occur among children under 5 years of age as a 
 result of infectious diseases and malnutrition. 
 Basic health problems and the implications of pop- 
 ulation growth and poor nutrition are discussed. 
 Programs for nutrition and the eradication of dis- 
 ease bearing insects need priority status in many 
 developing nations. Stages of health planning are 
 suggested: developing effective planning organi- 
 zations, planning policies and goals with the politi- 
 cal group responsible for implementation, obtain- 
 ing demographic and other data determining prior- 
 ities, basing alternatives on cost-benefit consider- 
 ations, constructing a plan, implementation, and 
 evaluation. Major considerations and methods for 
 assessing and projecting manpower requirements 
 are: biologic demand, physician - population ratio, 
 economic - demographic needs, and service tar- 
 gets ~ the advantages, disadvantages, and appro- 
 priate situations required for each method are de- 
 lineated. Ways of financing health care services 
 are discussed. The problems and benefits of 
 health centers and hospitals are explored. Mobile 
 
 units are important alternatives to permanent facili- 
 ties in remote, sparsely settled regions. The distri- 
 bution of professional personnel is discussed. In 
 some areas, indigenous medical practitioners are 
 being trained as health auxiliaries; in China, one 
 million 'barefoot doctors' deliver basic health serv- 
 ices to rural areas. Illustrative charts are provided.

 Registered nurses who enroll in the basic bacca- 
 laureate program at Salem State College, Massa- 
 chusetts, are permitted to validate their skills in 
 specified areas through testing in order to be 
 exempted from sophomore and junior year nursing 
 courses. To be exempt from the junior year nursing 
 courses (24 credit hours), they must pass the Na- 
 tional League for Nursing achievement tests in 
 medical-surgical and maternal and child health 
 nursing at the 50th percentile or higher. They must 
 also receive a satisfactory clinical evaluation 
 based on two performance tests. To measure the 
 nurse's ability to respond in a variety of commonly 
 encountered interactions in which patients or fami- 
 lies exhibit anxiety, grief, hostility, or denial, a 
 series of videotape sequences was developed 
 during which the nurse writes her verbal and non- 
 verbal responses and a rationale for the responses 
 as if she were the nurse in that situation. These 
 responses are then evaluated as most therapeutic, 
 appropriate, or least appropriate. In order to meas- 
 ure the nurse's ability to use all of the steps of the 
 nursing process in a specific care situation, the 
 evaluator visits the nurse in her own work setting. 
 The nurse is required to present an oral and a writ- 
 ten presentation of a patient with whom she car- 
 ried out each step of the nursing process, using the 
 American Nurses' Association's Standards of 
 Nursing Practice as a guide. The nurse and the 
 evaluator then visit the patient together, and the 
 evaluator interviews him. Following this, the evalu- 
 ator meets the nurse in private to review the oral 
 and written presentations. Of the 34 students eval- 
 uated, 15 have completed senior year nursing 
 courses, and preliminary data on students' per- 
 formance show that those evaluated at the junior 
 year level are high performers in their senior year 
 as compared to students not evaluated.

 Legislation in California allows licensed vocational 
 nurses to qualify for the State board examinations 
 for registered nurses by taking an additional 30 
 credits in a community college nursing program. 
 As a result, Pasadena City College has developed 
 an associate degree program which involves 1 
 year's study after completion of certain general 
 education requirements. Course work in this year 
 covers pediatric, psychiatric, and advanced medi- 
 cal-surgical nursing; intensive care of patients fol- 
 lowing catastrophic illness; and disaster nursing. 
 An initial assessment of the nursing competency of 
 the vocational nurses is made prior to their en- 
 trance into the program, since the background of 
 the students is extremely varied. While many have 
 several years experience, others are recent gradu- 
 ates with only 1 year of experience or may not 
 have practiced for many years. The vocational 
 nurse students are permitted to reduce their clini- 
 cal hours so that they can have instruction as a 
 group. In the second semester, however, the 
 
 nurse-students spend all their time with the regular 
 associate degree program students. All of the vo- 
 cational nurses in the program were highly motivat- 
 ed, although many encountered personal prob- 
 lems related to their roles as students. The pro- 
 gram also provides guidance and counseling on 
 the role changes associated with the transition 
 from licensed vocational nurse to registered nurse.

 Problems encountered in an accelerated program 
 allowing technical nurses to earn baccalaureate 
 degrees are analyzed. The program was initiated in 
 1975 at a State college in a rural area. To encour- 
 age modification of traditional behavior, the cur- 
 riculum promotes self-direction and focuses on 
 social, psychological, and cultural aspects rather 
 than on acute care. Typical problems are minimal 
 class participation, complaints about excessive 
 work, failure to discuss problems with teachers, 
 and criticism of faculty. The tension is attributed to 
 the need to adopt new thinking, lack of free time, 
 and ostracism by friends at old jobs. The educa- 
 tional change process is interpreted as socializa- 
 tion involving compliance, identification, and inter- 
 nalization. During the compliance phase students 
 see new behavior as a means to an end without 
 believing in change. Identification, in which stu- 
 dents select desired behaviors from a role model, 
 is characterized by conflict. In the integration 
 phase belief in new concepts becomes genuine as 
 students integrate them into their own value sys- 
 tems. Students are encouraged to take new jobs 
 where they can apply their altered systems of 
 belief. Planned change in professional education is 
 brought about by unfreezing, changing, and re- 
 freezing: the teacher can further unfreezing by fail- 
 ing to confirm students' existing beliefs, by induc- 
 ing guilt anxiety through comparisons of real and 
 ideal, and by creating a safety zone through re- 
 moval of change barriers. The need to analyze stu- 
 dents' force fields before instituting change is em- 
 phasized. The students' anger during change is 
 viewed as part of the grieving process associated 
 with losing hold of familiar assumptions. The 
 change process is only regarded as acceptable 
 when it increases students' options.

 An understanding of American Indian concepts of 
 healing and medicine is necessary for effective 
 health care planning for, and delivery to, Indian 
 populations. This report examines the taxonomy of 
 plants in Iroquois Indian culture as it relates to the 
 establishment of criteria for determining the power 
 possessed by medicinal plants. The Iroquois 
 assign names to plants based on: structural fea- 
 tures, functional features, resemblances to other 
 plants, assumed kinship relations, utility, meta- 
 phoric statements, habitat, onomatopoeic devices, 
 and noun roots. Plants are further classified ac- 
 cording to gender and relationship, i.e., some 
 plants have a localized relationship thought of as 
 marriage which must be observed in their collec- 
 tion. The power of individual plants is attributed to 
 either their general or communal power, e.g., nutri- 
 tion, or their special power, e.g., divination or 
 witchcraft. From the Iroquoian world view of a nat- 
 ural balance of complementary opposites, the hier- 
 archy of medicinal plants is described as interac- 
 tional and contextual rather than rigid. The Iroquois 
 believe that disease is caused by offensive behav-

 ior, unfulfilled desires, contact with evil, and witch- 
 craft, and the medicine of plants is used to coun- 
 teract these influences. Symptomatic correlates 
 have been developed to assist in determining the 
 cause of a disease and thereby its treatment. For 
 example, longstanding or chronic illnesses are at- 
 tributed to unfulfilled desires and are believed to 
 be alleviated by plants (e.g., ferns) used in divina- 
 tion by medicine societies or communal guessing. 
 The skill and creativity of the herbalist are neces- 
 sary to the correct and efficacious use of these 
 medicine plants.

 Three essays focusing on the relationship be- 
 tween health needs and the need for economic de- 
 velopment in less developed countries are pre- 
 sented. It is suggested that less developed coun- 
 tries try to equalize the distribution of health-relat- 
 ed expenditures for different groups in the popula- 
 tion. The inequity of health expenditures is more 
 important than the actual amount spent. It is sug- 
 gested that public sector spending for health serv- 
 ices be increased. A long-term commitment to 
 economic development should be undertaken as a 
 strategy for improving health. Examples of the 
 health versus development dilemma are provided. 
 The many issues associated with the definition and 
 measurement of the health of a nation's popula- 
 tion are summarized. The uses and limitations of 
 various methods of measurement are discussed, 
 as are some of the key issues in the health and 
 development problem. It is recommended that a 
 systems analysis approach to health problems in 
 developing countries be utilized.

 Selected readings related to Hispanic health care 
 beliefs and practices are presented in a text in- 
 tended for nurse practitioners and other allied 
 health personnel. The objective is to provide infor- 
 mation about Hispanic cultural foundations in order 
 to decrease bias and encourage a more effective, 
 holistic approach to health care planning and deliv- 
 ery. Among the subjects discussed are the signifi- 
 cance of societal influence on the health attitudes 
 and beliefs of Hispanics, with attention given to 
 such cultural components as religion, language, 
 and family structure and to the origins and formula- 
 tion of folk medicine and its possible incompatibil- 
 ity with scientific health measures, as well as folk 
 medicine and disease as social phenomena. An 
 effort is made to examine the Mexican-American 
 folk medical system and to compare it to scientific 
 medicine. In addition, implications of the mutually 
 satisfactory coexistence of the systems are con- 
 sidered. Finally, barriers that Mexican Americans 
 face in acquiring and using institutional and com- 
 munity-based health services are considered and 
 significant adaptive mechanisms and lifestyles that 
 may contribute to Hispanic health care beliefs are 
 addressed. An appendix deals with herbs and oils 
 and their therapeutic uses.

 Krill protein can be viewed as a highly valuable 
 food product. The Okean protein paste obtained 
 from krill in a frozen form can be used for preparing 
 various dishes as well as in producing processed 
 cheeses and other food products. The experi- 
 ments conducted on sterilizing the protein paste 
 and the freshly removed juice indicated that the 
 sterilization temperature should not exceed 105C. 
 At a temperature above 105C, the product turns 
 dark and acquires an unpleasant aroma and taste. 
 For food purposes it is possible to use fresh- 
 caught krill kept on the deck for not more than 4 
 hours. The krill which has been on the deck for 
 more than 4 hours since catching should be used 
 for producing feed meal. The coagulation of pro- 
 tein from the krill juice is possible following two 
 variations. The first provides for protein coagula- 
 tion in a heat exchanger and then the removal of 
 the produced protein from the broth by filtering or 
 centrifuging. In following the second variation, the

 The Nambe Community Center is a solar heated 
 adobe community building for the Nambe Indian 
 Pueblo, located twenty miles north of Santa Fe, 
 New Mexico. The 3000 ft exp 2 building makes use 
 of several passive solar heating features. The 
 active solar heating system is an air system using a 
 17 ton rock storage bed. The solar collector 
 system consists of a 440 ft exp 2 vertical collector 
 with a 1056 ft exp 2 reflector. The system also 
 allows night evaporative cooling of the rock bed for 
 summer cooling operation. The system became 
 operational during the 1977-78 heating season, 
 and solar heating data are presented for operation 
 of the system in the spring of 1 978. A discussion of 
 using the rock bed for summer cold storage is also 
 given. (ERA citation 04:022201)

 The history and economic status of the Navajo 
 Indian Tribe are reviewed briefly. As measured by 
 several yardsticks of economic well-being, the 
 Navajo fall significantly below the rest of the 
 United States. The Navajo have adopted an eco- 
 nomic development plan "to bring the Navajo up to 
 an equal footing with the rest of the nation." In 
 view of these factors and the traditional rural set- 
 tlement patterns of the Navajo, it is proposed that 
 economic development within the Navajo Nation 
 be aimed at encouraging increased productivity at 
 a local level, in harmony with traditional values and 
 lifestyles. Technology should be developed and 
 adapted that can complement current Navajo life 
 patterns. Technology appropriate for the Navajo 
 would be of low capital cost, reliable, labor-inten- 
 sive, personally satisfying to use, and decentral- 
 ized. It is argued that appropriate technology can 
 provide an increased material standard of living 
 while permitting continuation of dispersed settle- 
 ment patterns and traditional values. It is suggest- 
 ed that a Center be established as part of the 
 Navajo Community College to develop appropriate 
 technological aids for the Navajo and to implement 
 this technology within the vast Navajo Nation. A 
 possible structure for such a Center is offered, and 
 it is suggested that a detailed study be undertaken 
 to determine the feasibility of establishing the 
 Center. (ERA citation 02:013726)

 Raising food for present population requires nitrog- 
 enous fertilizers in addition to indirect manage- 
 ment of the biosphere's nitrogen cycle. The Haber 
 process for making the ammonia base of fertilizers 
 is increasingly pressed by shortages of energy, 
 while only minor improvements are still possible. I 
 discuss the Haber process and 1 5 alternatives for 
 increasing the nitrogen available to crops using 
 less fossil energy. These alternatives span tech- 
 nology of fertilizer synthesis, farm management 
 and technology, crop genetics, and market man- 
 agement. They were selected by criteria of energy- 
 efficiency and of meeting the numerous biological/ 
 physical constraints posed by soils and plants. The 
 alternatives vary in scope and efficacy due to sci- 
 entific, economic, and political constraints which 
 need to be appreciated by policy-makers and re- 
 searchers alike. I conclude that the Haber process 
 will be the mainstay for nitrogen-nutrition of crops 
 for 50 years, and a few alternative strategies will 
 slowly achieve a partial replacement of the Haber 
 process. Full replacement in the longer run re- 
 quires commitment within a few decades to devel- 
 oping the strongest alternatives. (ERA citation

 The zero-energy house is designed in such a way 
 that it can be heated and supplied with hot water 
 without using the traditional energy sources except 
 for the normal electricity consumption of the 
 household. This is primarily attained through effec- 
 tive thermal insulation and tightening of the house 
 and by means of heat recovery from the used air 
 and the waste water. In this way it should be possi- 
 ble to reduce the heat requirement to such a 
 degree that it can for the most part be met by the 
 inhabitants body heat and the waste heat from the 
 domestic electricity consumption along with the 
 solar radiation through the windows. The deficit is

 One way in which the diminishing supplies of pe- 
 troleum products may be extended is by the use of 
 substitute fuels-for example, natural gas or eth- 
 anol. But supplies of natural gas are themselves 
 limited, and require processing to fuels such as 
 methanol or liquified petroleum gas to be suitable 
 for internal combustion engines. Ethanol is a fuel 
 that may be produced from renewable resources 
 by a simple process with inexpensive equipment. It 
 has been, and still is, used in many countries in 
 proportions as high as 25% without affecting 
 engine performance. Ethanol can also be used as 
 the starting point for many chemical syntheses and 
 could replace petroleum products in the manufac- 
 ture of some organic chemicals. In this paper the 
 possibility of setting up an ethanol industry in New 
 Zealand is discussed, and the practicability of pro- 
 ducing ethanol at a reasonable price in sufficient 
 quantity to make a significant impact on the total 
 energy requirements of the country is examined.

 The objective of this study has been to determine 
 the current technology of a wind-energy conver- 
 sion system (WECS) of minimal cost for rural appli- 
 
 cations. Specifically, IGT has evaluated available 
 methods for converting shaft horse-power from a 
 wind turbine to electricity and hydrogen. A work- 
 able mix of these two energy forms with storage 
 that can support the energy needs of selected 
 farming operations and the rural home was sought. 
 Energy load patterns of several farming operations 
 were examined for interfacing with the energy stor- 
 age and delivery systems that are supped by wind 
 turbines dependent on the prevalent winds. Sever- 
 al preliminary designs have been completed so 
 that a follow-up program for developing detailed 
 designs and deeonstration units can be imple- 
 mented if desired. (ERA citation 03:030701 )

 For the construction of modern wood working ma- 
 chines, problems such as the most favorable tool 
 spindle and shaft bearings play an important part. 
 The construction and functional details of these 
 machines are considered. The interrelationships 
 are discussed of speed, bearing load, fit and lubri- 
 cation, as well as bearing devices and their instal- 
 lation. The particulars of motor shaft bearings are 
 considered along with questions concerning oscil- 
 lating shafts. Another, equally important construc- 
 tion detail is the chip suction system. Defects that 
 might occur in the construction of suction hoods or 
 at the machines themselves are described. Finally, 
 questions of noise abatement, its cause and elimi- 
 nation are discussed. (Author)

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 Removal of cadmium and nickel from static water 
 systems utilizing water hyacinths (Eichhomia cras- 
 sipes (Mart.) Solms) was investigated. This aquatic 
 plant demonstrated the ability to rapidly remove 
 heavy metals from aqueous systems by root ab- 
 sorption and concentration. Water hyacinths dem- 
 onstrated the ability to absorb and concentrate up 
 to 0.67 mg of cadmium and 0.50 mg of nickel per 
 gram of dry plant material when exposed for a 24- 
 hour period to waters polluted with from 0.578 to 
 2.00 ppm of these toxic metals. It is found that one 
 hectare of water hyacinths has the potential of re- 
 moving 300 g of cadmium or nickel from 240,000 
 liters of water polluted with these metals during a 
 24-hour period. (Author)

 Fragrant waterlily (Nymphaea odorata, Ait.), joint- 
 grass (Paspalum distichum L.), and rush (Juncus 
 repens, Michx.) were used to evaluate the effec- 
 tiveness of vascular aquatic plants in removing the 
 insecticide mevinphos (dimethyl-1-carbomethoxy- 
 1 propen-2-yl phosphate) from waters contaminat- 
 ed with this chemical. The emersed aquatic plants 
 fragrant waterlily and joint-grass removed 87 and 
 93 ppm of mevinphos from water test systems in 
 less than 2 weeks without apparent damage to the 
 plants; whereas rush, a submersed plant, removed 
 less insecticide than the water-soil controls. 
 Water-soil control still contained toxic levels of this 
 insecticide, as demonstrated by fish bioassay stud- 
 ies, after 35 days. (Author)

 Bio-gas and methane production from the micro- 
 bial anaerobic decomposition of water hyacinths 
 (Eichhornia crassipes) (Mart) Solms was investi- 
 gated. These experiments demonstrated the ability 
 of water hyacinths to produce an average of 1 3.9 
 ml of methane gas per gram of wet plant weight. 
 This study revealed that sample preparation had 
 no significant effect on bio-gas and/or methane 
 production. Pollution of water hyacinths by two 
 toxic heavy materials, nickel and cadmium, in- 
 creased the rate of methane production from 51 .8 
 ml/day for non-contaminated plants incubated at 
 36 C to 81 .0 ml/day for Ni-Cd contaminated plants 
 incubated at the same temperature. The methane 
 content of bio-gas evolved from the anaerobic de- 
 composition of Ni-Cd contaminated plants was 
 91.1 percent as compared to 69.2 percent meth- 
 ane content of bio-gas collected from the fermen- 
 tation of non-contaminated plants. (Author)

 The use of a solar simulator for performance deter- 
 mination permits collector testing under standard 
 conditions of wind, ambient temperature, flow rate 
 and sun. The performance results determined with 
 the simulator have been found to be in good agree- 
 ment with outdoor performance results. The meas- 
 ured thermal efficiency and evaluation of 23 col- 
 lectors are reported which differ according to ab- 
 sorber material (copper, aluminum, steel), absorb- 
 er coating (nonselective black paint, selective 
 copper oxide, selective black nickel, selective 
 black chrome), type of glazing material (glass, 
 Tedlar, Lexan, antireflection glass), the use of hon- 
 eycomb material and the use of vacuum to pervent 
 thermal convection losses. The collectors were 
 given performance rankings based on noon-hour 
 solar conditions and all-day solar conditions. The 
 determination with the simulator of an all-day col- 
 lector performance was made possible by tests at 
 different incident angles. The solar performance 
 rankings were made based on whether the collec- 
 tor is to be used for pool heating, hot water, ab- 
 sorption air conditioning, heating, or for a solar 
 Rankine machine. (Author)

 and feed production. The alternative possibility of 
 using residues from food, feed, or lumber was 
 evaluated. It was concluded that great doubt must 
 be cast on the feasibility of producing grown or- 
 ganic matter for fuel, in competition with food, 
 feed, or fiber. The feasibility of collecting residues 
 may be nearer, but the competition for the residues 
 for return to the soil or cellulosic production is for- 
 midable. (Author)

 as an efficient and inexpensive final filtration 
 system in a secondary domestic sewage lagoon 
 during a three month test period. These plants re- 
 duced the suspended solids, biochemical oxygen 
 demanding substances, and other chemical pa- 
 rameters to levels below the standards set by the 
 state pollution control agency. The water hyacinth- 
 covered secondary lagoon utilized in this experi- 
 ment had a surface area of 0.28 hectare (0.70 
 acre) with a total capacity of 6.8 million liters (1.5 
 million gallons), receiving an inflow of 522,100 
 liters (1 1 5,000 gallons) per day from a 1 . 1 hectare 
 (3.8 acre) aerated primary sewage lagoon. These 
 conditions allowed a retention time of 14 to 21 
 days depending on the water hyacinth evapotran- 
 spiration rates. The desired purity of final sewage 
 effluent can be controlled by the water hyacinth 
 surface area, harvest rate, and the retention time.

 A low-cost solar home heating system to supple- 
 ment existing warm-air heating systems is de- 
 scribed. The report is written in three parts: (1) a 
 brief background on solar heating, (2) experience 
 with a demonstration system, and (3) information 
 for the homeowner who wishes to construct such a 
 system. Instructions are given for a solar heating 
 installation in which the homeowner supplies all 
 labor necessary to install off-the-shelf components 
 estimated to cost $2,000. These components, 
 which include solar collector, heat exchanger, 
 water pump, storage tank, piping, and controls to 
 make the system completely automatic, are availa- 
 ble at local lumber yards, hardware stores, and 
 plumbing supply stores, and are relatively simple 
 to install. Manufacturers and prices of each com- 
 ponent used and a rough cost analysis based on 
 these prices are included. This report also gives 
 performance data obtained from a demonstration 
 system which was built and tested at the Langley 
 Research Center. (Author)

 The Tests and Applications Project of the ERDA 
 Photovoltaic Program is concerned with the testing 
 of photovoltaic systems and the growth of their 
 use in real terrestrial applications. This activity is 
 an important complement to the development of 
 low cost solar arrays by providing requirements 
 based on application needs and stimulating mar- 
 kets to create demand to absorb increasing pro- 
 duction capacity. A photovoltaic system test facility 
 is now operational, market stimulation has been 
 initiated through applications, and standards for 
 terrestrial cell measurements established.

 The status of activity in the user community for 
 water hyacinth-based wastewater treatment was 
 evaluated. The principal technique used was that 
 of interviewing people who either (1) were known 
 to be engaged in hyacinth research or develop- 
 ment or (2) had made inquiry to NASA about hya- 
 cinth systems. About 40 non-research organiza- 
 tions and a similar number of research organiza- 
 tions were contacted. As a result of the interviews 
 and a review of the relevant literature, it was con- 
 cluded that hyacinth systems have the potential for 
 providing a lower cost way for small cities to meet 
 increasingly stringent effluent requirements. A lim- 
 ited amount of full-scale demonstration of hyacinth 
 systems has been carried out during the past two 
 years, but the yield of design data has been small. 
 Several organizations are currently planning con- 
 struction of experimental full-scale hyacinth-based 
 wastewater treatment systems during 1977-1978.

 duced a high quality potable water from humus 
 tank effluent. Water was reclaimed from activated 
 sludge effluent utilizing the same process without 
 quality equalization and ammonia stripping. The 
 simplified process was easier to control and ren- 
 dered a product water of comparable quality. In 
 processing activated sludge effluent, consumption 
 of chemicals was less and reclamation costs were 
 
 reduced by 20 to 30%, depending on the size of 
 the plant.

 The potential economic benefit of small solar ther- 
 mal electric power systems to small municipal and 
 rural electric utilities is assessed. Five different 
 solar thermal small power system configurations 
 were considered in three different solar thermal 
 technologies. The configurations included: (1) 1 
 MW, 2 MW, and 10 MW parabolic dish concentra- 
 tors with a 1 5 kW heat engine mounted at the focal 
 point of each dish, these systems utilized ad- 
 vanced battery energy storage; (2) a 10 MW 
 system with variable slat concentrators and central 
 steam Rankine energy conversion, this system uti- 
 lized sensible thermal energy storage; and (3) a 50 
 MW central receiver system consisting of a field of 
 heliostats concentrating energy on a tower-mount- 
 ed receiver and a central steam Rankine conver- 
 sion system, this system also utilized sensible ther- 
 mal storage. The results are summarized in terms 
 of break-even capital costs. The break-even capi- 
 tal cost was defined as the solar thermal plant cap- 
 
 ital cost which would have to be achieved in order 
 for the solar thermal plants to penetrate 1 percent 
 of the reference small utility generation mix by the 
 year 2000. The calculated break-even capital 
 costs are presented.

 Small bivalves of the genus Corbicula are widely 
 used for human food in Japan thus they have 
 some commercial importance, and in some cases 
 they are the object of cultivation being transplant- 
 ed to the place where they are not found. Their 
 habitat is either fresh or brackish water. The chief 
 purpose of the present study is to elucidate their 
 reproduction which shows different types accord- 
 ing to ecological conditions. (ERA citation

 Several energy sources, including solar, geother- 
 mal, and fusion processes, have been presented 
 in the press as being low-cost and nonpolluting 
 and proclaimed as solutions to the energy crisis. 
 This report provides information related to techni- 
 cal feasibility, economic practicality, and commer- 
 cial availability of these sources, and attempts to 
 assess their environmental effects. Specifically, 
 three concepts of geothermal energy extraction, 
 artificial and natural means of collecting solar 
 energy, and a typical thermonuclear energy gener- 
 ator are discussed. The authors point out that this 
 report was prepared during the Summer and Fall of 
 1973, but was not completed because funding for 
 the project was canceled early in 1974. Although 
 the work was completed by one of the authors 
 (Beall) on a part-time basis early in 1975, there 
 was no time to update the material to reflect the 
 
 changes in technology during the interim; thus, 
 much of the referenced technological material and 
 cost data are somewhat out of date. In spite of this 
 shortcoming, Dr. Beall feels that the treatment of 
 environmental effects and the suggested method- 
 ology for comparing the impacts of the alternative 
 energy systems remain pertinent and provide a 
 basis for additional generic and site-specific stud- 
 ies. (146 references).

 Research was initiated on the intensive production 
 of sugarcane and other tropical grasses as solar- 
 dried forages. Greenhouse experiments designed 
 to screen candidate clones and to evaluate growth 
 curves were the first to get underway. Chemical 
 growth control tests were also initiated. Plant ma- 
 terials at this stage consist of commercial sugar- 
 cane hybrids, progeny from the AES-UPR cane 
 breeding program, Saccharum clones from the 
 species officinarum, spontaneum, sinense, and ro- 
 bustum, Erianthus clones, a commercial tropical 
 forage grass, napier grass, and forms of S. spon- 
 taneum plus Arundo donax growing wild in Puerto 
 Rico. Initial stages of cane breeding and progeny 
 selection for the high tonnage attribute were 
 begun during August. Foliar tissue analyses for N, 
 P, K, S, and Si were started together-with assays 
 for acid invertase and other components of ex- 
 panding stem tissue. The first field experiment was 
 initiated during July at the semi-arid Lajas Substa- 
 tion. Four clones (three sugarcane hybrids plus 
 napier grass var. Merker) are being evaluated inci- 
 dent to row spacing and harvest frequency in field- 
 plots. (ERA citation 04:005503)

 Tropical grasses from Saccharum and related 
 genera are being evaluated as candidates for in- 
 tensive production of solar-dried biomass. Catego- 
 ries of candidate grasses include short, intermedi- 
 ate, and long-rotation crops for co-production with 
 conventional food commodities. The hybrid forage 
 grass Sordan 70A (Northrup King Seeds) is the 
 outstanding short-rotation plant tested to date. 
 Napier grass (var. Common Merker) is a promising 
 intermediate-rotation crop which possibly may be 
 exceeded by several napier grass hybrids. Candi- 
 date clones from the Saccharum species sinense 
 and spontaneum are being investigated for use in 
 both long-rotation and minimum-tillage production 
 regimes. Direct comparisons of sugarcane hybrids 
 with napier grass indicate that sugarcane is an in- 
 ferior candidate for tropical forage production. 
 Sugarcane responded well to narrow row centers 
 at 2 months but the response diminished at 4 and 
 6 months. For both crops, greater biomass yields 
 were obtained from a single harvest at 6 months 
 than from three 2-month harvests combined. The 
 ability to convert early succulent growth to dry 
 matter is a decisive feature for candidates to be

 A fixed, linear, ground-based primary reflector is 
 described which has an extended curved-saw- 
 tooth contoured surface covered with a metallized 
 polymeric reflecting material; It reflects solar 
 energy to a movably supported collector that is 
 kept at the concentrated line focus of the reflector 
 primary. The primary flector was constructed by a 
 process utilizing freeway paving machinery. The 
 solar energy absorber is preferably a fluid-trans- 
 porting pipe. Efficient utilization leading to high 
 temperatures from the reflected solar energy was 
 obtained by cylindrical shaped secondary reflec- 
 tors that direct off-angle energy to the absorber 
 pipe. Refocusing secondary reflectors which 
 cause a series of discrete spots of highly concen- 
 trated solar energy to fall on the fluid-transporting 
 pipe were used to obtain higher temperature 
 levels. A seriatim arrangement of cylindrical sec- 
 ondary reflector stages and spot-forming reflector 
 stages produces a high temperature solar energy 
 collection system of greater efficiency.

 The patent describes a system for dynamically 
 measuring and displaying track curvature informa- 
 tion to a locomotive engineer on a real-time basis. 
 A car mounted sensor produces a variable output 
 responsive to changes in the car's orientation 
 caused by variation in track curvature, a control cir- 
 cuit converts the sensor output into an electrical 
 signal representative of the changes in orientation, 
 and an indicator receives the signal and provides a 
 dynamic display of the derived track curvature in- 
 formation. In a preferred embodiment, the sensor 
 comprises an extendable line having one end at- 
 tached to a bracket that is connected to the center 
 of a supporting truck cross-frame, while the other 
 end is wound on a retractable supply reel mounted 
 on the car's frame. In response to relative move- 
 ment between the car's frame and the supporting 
 truck, caused by movement of the car over curved 
 track, the length of the line withdrawn from the reel 
 varies and is monitored by an electrical potentiom- 
 eter that produces an output signal indicative of 
 track curvature.

 The study reports that there exists at the Blackfeet 
 Reservation a sufficient labor pool endowed with 
 ceramic production capabilities and that all other 
 factors controlling the success of such an industry 
 are in evidence, provided the enterprise can be fi- 
 nanced. It resolves that the plant should be direct- 
 ed to the production of art pottery, particularly fine 
 figurines and pottery designed to reflect the Ameri- 
 can Indian tradition. It determined that the opti- 
 mum method of production is slip casting but rec- 
 ommends flexible molding as soon as practical 
 and suggests lines of experiments so directed. The 
 study examines the market for Indian art pottery 
 and recommends specific items at specific prices, 
 and undertakes to predict sales quotas of such 
 items. It shows that there is an annual sales of 
 $21 ,000,000 in the U. S. alone of art ceramic items 
 and that there is no commercially produced Indian 
 pottery of any significance at this time. It proposes 
 that a $100,000 penetration of this market is less 
 than one-half of one percent, and concludes that 
 this is feasible. The study recommends a program 
 of facilities and equipment starting with a 4,940 
 square foot plant employing 20 people to be ex- 
 panded to a 10,000 square foot plant employing 
 129 people, with a corallary ceramics industry to 
 employ another 125 over a ten year program. It 
 proposes a plan of implementation including man- 
 agement, capital, labor, and facility requirements 
 over a ten year period to be financed with an in- 
 vestment of $250,000 and shows that a break- 
 even point is possible by the end of the first full 
 year of operation. (Author)

 A pilot plant operation to determine the feasibility 
 of processing tropical fruits with acerola plant 
 equipment was a definite success. The technicians 
 who carried out the pilot plant operation have con- 
 cluded it is technically possible to produce high 
 quality concentrates from passion fruit, guava and 
 papaya on a commercial scale. No serious techni- 
 cal problems were encountered in the operation. In 
 
 making these concentrates, the technologists at- 
 tempted to get the highest brix reading possible 
 instead of stopping at a lower and possibly more 
 practical level of concentration. Subsequent prod- 
 uct development work by the technologists proved 
 satisfactory products could be made utilizing these 
 concentrates. These products were jams, jellies, 
 nectar bases, 2nd flavorings. An economic analy- 
 sis of a projected full-scale commercial operation 
 resulted in a very optimistic profit picture. These 
 results apply only to the Puna District of Hawaii 
 which offers unique advantages to the proposed 
 operation. (Author)

 In general the items likely to be in greatest demand 
 in Malaysia are general purpose metal cutting ma- 
 chines likely to be used in small general purpose 
 workshops. The machines should be robust and 
 any sub assembles which are difficult to repair 
 should be easily removeable for exchange. The 
 market for large or highly specialized machines is 
 not likely to be large for several years.

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 The report is based on a study of hurricane 
 damage to man-made structures over a period of 
 years. Not all damage can be eliminated, but a very 
 high percentage of damage observed in the past 
 could have been avoided with simple, inexpensive 
 commonsense principles applied to building con- 
 struction. Some of these principles are demon- 
 strated here-especially in respect to the value of 
 good foundations and the importance of ties be- 
 tween parts of the structure. (Author)

 The purpose of this report is to present basic infor- 
 mation relative to the establishment of a mineral 
 wool plant in a foreign country. Mineral wool may 
 be manufactured from rock, slag, or glass, any one 
 of which may be processed from a molten state 
 into a fluffy, light-weight mass of fine intermingled 
 mineral fibers composed of complex silicates. This 
 report pertains to the fabrication of loose and gran- 
 ulated mineral wool from slag. These materials are 
 used mainly for thermal insulation by the building 
 trades. When mineral wool is to be supplied to 
 manufacturers of specialized acoustical and filter 
 products, chemical analysis and control of the fiber 
 and completed wool will be necessary to assure 
 conformance to the customer's specifications. 
 This plant will require a substantial capital invest- 
 ment and a reasonable number of skilled work- 
 men. Raw materials should be available locally, 
 particularly slag and coke. Generally, the less de- 
 veloped countries do not offer particularly favora- 
 ble conditions for the production of mineral wool, 
 nor a large enough domestic market to lead to a 
 profitable venture. However, such a plant would be 
 feasible in an industrially developing country where 
 a large volume of new construction and industries 
 would create a sufficient demand. A favorable 
 factor would be association of the mineral plant 
 with a factory processing high and low temperature 
 mineral wool felts, industrial batts, blankets, 
 blocks, boards, and molded pipe insulations.

 The report deals with the seasoning of lumber, es- 
 pecially by comparatively simple means applicable 
 throughout the entire world. Seasoning is impor- 
 tant because the removal of moisture from green 
 wood is generally necessary before the material 
 can be safely stored or used to best advantage. 
 For particular uses, drying to a low moisture con- 
 tent is required. While the main part of this report 
 refers to methods and techniques of air drying and 
 kiln drying lumber, such other phases are covered 
 as basic properties of wood, principles of moisture 
 removal, protection of green wood from attack by 
 fungi and insects, and dry lumber storage.

 The cotton dress industry is described as one of 
 the most competitive manufacturing businesses in 
 the United States. For this reason, a great amount 
 of effort has been applied to making the processes 
 as efficient as possible. Despite rising costs of ma- 
 
 terials and labor, high productivity makes it possi- 
 ble to produce stylish, simple dresses that retail in 
 the United States for three to four dollars. Most of 
 these are produced in small and medium-sized 
 factories such as the one described in this manual.

 The manufacture of glass products of artistic merit 
 requires highly skilled and experienced artisans, 
 not only for the design and execution of the fin- 
 ished articles, but for the formulation and manufac- 
 ture of batches of fine glass and crystal of desired 
 working properties and attractive color and lustre. 
 This report emphasizes the process of making the 
 glass batch itself, the plant and equipment re- 
 quired, and general procedures of furnace work 
 and annealing, rather than the skilled techniques 
 of blowing, pressing, cutting or engraving required 
 to produce and decorate the finished article. The 
 operation of the proposed plant consists essential- 
 ly in the manufacture of batches of various types of 
 glass, largely for inventory, and the working up of 
 glass into finished articles in a sequence of oper- 
 ations, many of which proceed more or less inde- 
 pendently of the glass manufacturing operation.

 amongst Swedish technologists. The present bib- 
 liography is step aimed especially at helping archi- 
 tects interested in this field. It consists of 450 refer- 
 ences to books, reports and articles, out of which 
 80 were commented upon. The references have 
 been grouped under the following nine sub-head- 
 ings: (1) Climate and its influences, (2) Building 
 materials and construction techniques, (3) Building 
 design, (4) Town-planning, (5) Urbanization, (6) 
 Economics, (7) Sociology, (8) Housing, and (9) 
 General.

 Extensive literature and numerous programs exist 
 concerning the development of forest, mineral, 
 and particularly, water resources in specific areas 
 of the United States. Comparatively little of this 
 work is directed specifically to the relation between 
 development of resources and regional growth, 
 much less to the specific programs and policies of 
 a regional organization whose objectives are to 
 maximize regional economic development. It is the 
 purpose of the report to provide some guide by in- 
 dicating the relevant sections of the literature. This 
 is essentially a task of interpretation. The growth of 
 income and employment in regions of the United 
 States may be explained in terms of the location 
 and growth of basic industries and their cumulative 
 effect on other industries. Analysis of the future 
 growth potential of any region may be viewed as 
 the study of the future growth of individual indus- 
 tries, the factors that influence their location, and 
 the interrelations among various industries.

 The manual is concerned with the appropriate 
 structure of manufacturing in underindustrialized 
 but developing countries. It is not concerned with 
 the over-all process of economic growth. It as- 
 sumes that some degree of industrialization will 
 occur in underindustrialized societies and inquires 
 only as to the proper balance between large-scale 
 and small-scale manufacturing units. More specifi- 
 cally, it examines the proposition that economic 
 growth may be retarded by overemphasis upon 
 large-scale industrial operations. (Author)

 Galvanizing is a process by which iron or steel is 
 coated with zinc to render it rust-resistant. There 
 are three general methods for accomplishing this. 
 They are, (1) the hot - dip method; (2) the electro- 
 galvanizing method; and (3) the 'Sherardizing' 
 method. This manual describes the hot-dip method 
 because it is the most widely used and because of 
 its economic advantages over the other methods. 
 The tinplating process is accomplished by the 
 same basic method. The galvanizing process is 
 used in the manufacture of buckets, pails, wash 
 tubs, water tanks and many industrial products. It 
 cannot be used in any product which comes in 
 contact with food, however, because the zinc will 
 contaminate the food. Tinplated products, on the 
 other hand, are used extensively for food contain- 
 ers. There is very little tinplating done by the hot- 
 dip method in the United States due to the high 
 cost of tin. In fact, many manufacturers are using 
 aluminum, stainless steel, and copper for cooking 
 utensils instead of tinplate. In other parts of the 
 world, however, tin would probably be cheaper 
 than other applicable materials. (Author)

 Dinnerware production in the United States ranges 
 from very high production from highly mechanized 
 factories to very small potteries which produce in 
 small quantities. The smaller potteries generally 
 depend on the unusual in design in marketing their 
 ware, while the larger potteries rely heavily on 
 competitive pricing. The products of the plant dis- 
 cussed in this report are those comprising a line of 
 relatively heavy, serviceable, semi-vitreous dinner- 
 ware. A representative assortment of products 
 consists of cups, saucers, 6-inch and 10-inch 
 plates, salad bowls, and large serving bowls.

 The purpose of this manual is to present basic in- 
 formation for establishing and operating a small 
 plant for the manufacture of men's socks. Except 
 for a small percentage all socks are made by the 
 knitting process. There are about 4,000 knitting in- 
 dustries in the United States. A few of the products 
 made in these industries include outerwear, under- 
 wear and hosiery. However, this manual will be de- 
 voted exclusively to men's socks. The term sock 
 used in this manual denotes a short stocking as 
 distinguished from a hose that is longer. (Author)

 cordingly, such a plan with the capital require- 
 ments limited to approximately $240,000 is pre-

 The process of enameling cast iron sanitary ware 
 imparts a hard, glossy surface to the object. This 
 coating permits easy cleaning and presents a 
 pleasing appearance. It is stain resistant, highly 
 acid resistant, and, if properly applied and given 
 reasonable care in usage, will last almost indefi- 
 nitely. The type of plant described in this report is 
 one which could be set up in almost any part of the 
 world. The basic raw materials - pig iron, scrap 
 iron, and sand - are ordinarily obtainable in all 
 parts of the world. Where special skills would be 
 required for the production of the ware, modern 
 machinery has been substituted wherever feasible. 
 In this way, the operation can be started more 
 readily and quality standards can be reached 
 sooner. (Author)

 Terry cloth is cotton fabric covered with loops on 
 one or both sides. It requires two sets of warps and 
 one set of filling; one set of warp threads is held 
 taut while weaving, the other set is released to 
 form the loops. When woven in linen (rare) or 
 bleached cotton in narrow widths, terry cloth is 
 called 'Turkish toweling.' This usually has two 
 loops (called double-loop terry). It can also be 
 made in checks, stripes, or plaid, or bleached and 
 dyed. Uses include towels, wash cloths, robes, 
 bath mats, bathing suits or sunsuits, linings for 
 suits and coats, draperies, spreads, bedrolls, and 
 potholders. Terry cloth readily absorbs and retains 
 moisture, making it suitable for use as wash cloths 
 and toweling. It is used in some applications be- 
 cause of its efficiency as an insulating medium and 
 because it is readily washed when soiled. Due to 
 the fact that the applications of single-loop terry 
 cloth are numerous and in good volume, the dis- 
 cussion is concerned with the production of cloth 
 of that type in a mill of minimum economic size.

 As indicated by the name, asbestos-cement pipe is 
 made of asbestos fibre and Portland cement, usu- 
 ally in combination with some other material like 
 silica. A curing agent may also be added but this is 
 not always necessary. In the United States the 
 market for asbestos-cement pipe is large and 
 growing steadily. This favorable situation has 
 grown from the fact that these products meet 
 many of the needs for pipe with the physical char- 
 acteristics of asbestos-cement products. They are 
 inexpensive and with unusual resistance to various 
 corrosive fluids found in many pipe systems. As- 
 bestos does not burn and is a very poor conductor 
 of electricity. (Author)

 The report is primarily concerned with the absolute 
 minimum operation for manufacture of true chalk 
 whiting and, therefore, discusses the simplest 
 manufacturing processes utilizing the crushing, 
 grinding, and screening of high purity chalk. How- 
 ever, sources of raw material for the manufacture 
 of true whiting are limited. This, and many other 
 factors have led to the development of whiting 
 substitutes with their alternate methods of manu- 
 facture and production. The CaC03 chemical in- 
 dustry that has grown up in the United States in 
 recent years is an outstanding example of such a 
 development. Before presenting the detailed de- 
 scription of the manufacture of true chalk whiting, 
 sufficient information on whiting substitutes is in- 
 cluded to present a basic concept of methods for 
 their production and to offer to present a basic 
 concept of methods for their production and to 
 offer sources of information for further study of op- 
 erations that may be adaptable to any locale and 
 its available raw materials. (Author)

 foreign country to produce dry ready-mixed con- 
 crete in paper bags. Dry ready-mixed concrete is 
 made of various mixtures of cement and aggre- 
 gates and these mixtures are called by various 
 names such as 'dry mix cement,' 'Ready mixed 
 concrete' and 'ready mixed cement.' Some of the 
 names used are trade names, such as 'homecrete' 
 and 'sackcrete.' Some of these may include addi- 
 tives or admixtures that are intended to produce 
 certain desirable qualities in the final product. For 
 the purposes of this report the product is called 
 ready-mixed concrete. This product is made up of 
 cement, sand and gravel, without any special addi- 
 tives. This ready-mixed concrete is intended for 
 use by homeowners and others who need only a 
 small amount of concrete at any one time and who 
 cannot, therefore, buy the cement, the sand and 
 the gravel separately, to their advantage. The 
 ready-mixed concrete is kept on hand in retail 
 hardware stores, paint stores, lumber yards, and 
 building supply places. Thus it always will be con- 
 venient for any homeowner or other possible user 
 who may wish to purchase small quantities for im- 
 mediate use. (Author)

 The manufacture of brooms offers a profitable 
 business opportunity adaptable to broad variation 
 in initial investment required, locale, raw materials, 
 labor requirements, climate, and market condi- 
 tions. Existing buildings may in many cases be 
 adapted to house a modern broom factory with 
 little or no alteration. The principal requirements 
 are adequate floor space, a source of power, and 
 ventilation. Fireproof buildings are desirable espe- 
 cially for warehousing space since fire insurance 
 rates in many locations are high for any operation 
 involving combustible materials. (Author)

 The purpose of this report is to present basic infor- 
 mation relative to the establishment of a plant to 
 manufacture mechanical springs in a foreign coun- 
 try. Springs may be produced in a wide variety of 
 shape, such as coiled, spiral, flat, leaf, ring, and 
 numerous special shapes. They may be of various 
 types, depending upon their intended use, such as 
 tension, compression, torsion, extension, cantile- 
 ver, etc. The ends may be formed to most any 
 shape desired, such as tightly coiled, looped, 
 squared, hooked, open, etc. A plant may manufac- 
 ture only stock type springs for general purpose 
 use, or it may manufacture a wide variety of 
 shapes, types, and sizes to a customer's individual 
 specifications. The plant described herein has 
 been planned and equipped to produce initially the 
 six general groups of spring products listed under 
 'Product Specifications.' This production can be 
 varied to suit local conditions. A plant of this type 
 will require a substantial capital investment and a 
 relatively skilled labor force. Obviously, an eco- 
 nomically underdeveloped country could not profit- 
 ably support a plant of this type, as a market for 
 spring products will not exist until general industrial 
 development is quite advanced. However, in a suit- 
 able environment, a plant such as this can realize 
 
 substantial profits with efficient management, pro- 
 duction controls, and sales effort. (Author)

 Silk screen printing varies in complexity from a 
 simple operation to a highly scientific art. If con- 
 fined to the use of pigmented dyes, a satisfactory 
 product can be produced for cottage industry with 
 a minimum of equipment and without the need of 
 highly trained and skilled color chemists and spe- 
 cial equipment for dye setting and aging. It is basi- 
 cally a service industry since no product is pro- 
 duced; instead printing is done to supply the needs 
 of other manufacturers for decoration of their prod- 
 ucts. One thousand to twelve hundred yards of 
 material can be printed on five tables by six people 
 oin one eight-hour shift. (Author)

 Written records are the memory of management. 
 They preserve facts and figures by setting them 
 down in writing for future use. Without records and 
 the experience they preserve there would be no 
 scientific management today. Recorded experi- 
 ence helps management in the planning and 
 scheduling of its operations. By comparing record- 
 ed performance with planned performance super- 
 visors can control the progress of enterprise activi- 
 ties. And, by using records to obtain detailed infor- 
 mation on all enterprise developments, business- 
 men can base their decisions on experience and 
 thus reduce the risks of misjudging enterprise 
 strength. Records also protect management 
 against legal difficulties, because they create and 
 preserve evidence on internal and external trans- 
 actions that may be questioned by the public, by 
 government, by the courts, or by other enterprises.

 Subsoil irrigation differs from the conventional 
 method of irrigation in that water, together with fer- 
 tilizers and chemicals., is introduced directly in the 
 subsoil horizon with the help of a special tool. The 
 working tool forms a fluctuating shaped mole 
 cavity at a depth of 20-35 cm. Great depth of cov- 
 ering water by the accepted line of machines (4-6 
 rows) and the loosening of the compact subsoil 
 horizon creates difficulty in matching subsoil irriga- 
 tion machines with the manufactured lines of culti- 
 vator tractors because of inadequate tractive 
 power. Therefore decreasing the tractive resis- 
 tance of the working tool is a real problem. Pro- 
 ceeding from this it is expedient to use active work- 
 ing tools in subsoil irrigation machines. (Author)

 tools depends on the extent their parameters suit- 
 ably characterize the technological process of the 
 worked media and the conditions of employment 
 of a given machine. The basic parameters of rotary 
 tiller row crop cultivators are: the width of cut B, 
 forward speed V, and feed to the knife S. To sup- 
 plement the parameters of the equipment we also 
 take the mechanical efficiency and the coefficient 
 of resistance to movement. The important qualities 
 of the machine depend on the basic parameters of 
 the equipment: the specific productivity, the specif- 
 ic cost, agrotechnical level of the treatment.

 Agriculture is the foundation of wealth in West 
 Africa. The concomitant of agriculture is villages. 
 The creation of efficient villages where a high 
 standard of life is possible is a prime town planning 
 responsibility of the coast. The stabilization of an 
 agriculture based on the rotation of crops rather 
 than shifting cultivation will help the permanent lo- 
 cation of villages as well as combat two great evils: 
 soil erosion caused by heedless destruction of the 
 forests, and soil impoverishment. Mining and fish- 
 ing villages have not been dealt with separately 
 since their location is fixed, but in general they 
 follow the same principles outlined for other vil- 
 lages. In siting a village the obvious factors con- 
 trolling its position are farming land, water, and ac- 
 cessibility to main roads, or sometimes to sea or 
 streams. (Author)

 The study describes the job of the city planner in 
 developing countries. It does this by examining a 
 single case, the planning of Ciudad Guayana, a city 
 being built in Venezuela, and it looks at this city 
 planning endeavor from two points of view. It ex- 
 amines this still on-going enterprise from the 
 standpoint of urban planning technique - how does 
 the urban planner in such a setting do his work. - 
 and in addition, it tries to suggest something of the 
 functions which such an urban planning enterprise 
 may have in a developing country. For while cer- 
 tain features of the case described are characteris- 
 tic only of Venezuela, or of the problems of new 
 cities, many of the problems confronted and tech- 
 niques used are relevant to urban, regional and na- 
 tional programs throughout the world. (Author)

 At the request of the Latin America Bureau, 
 Agency for International Development, these pro- 
 posed minimum standards were developed by the 
 Division of International Affairs, Department of 
 Housing and Urban Development, for use in Latin 
 America. They are based principally on codes, or- 
 dinances and standards obtained from countries in 
 Central and South America and the Caribbean 
 Area, and on discussions with officials and techni- 
 cians of selected countries in these regions. In so 
 far as possible, they are performance standards, 
 rather than specification standards and thus are 
 generally applicable to the entire region. These 
 standards are not to be construed as 'desirable 
 standards', but rather are intended to meet only 
 the minimum basic needs of families of low 
 income. Their purpose is, however, to provide 
 these families with a dwelling which is structurally 
 safe, reasonably durable and which will not require 
 excessive maintenance or repair during the life of 
 the mortgage. They are also intended to provide a 
 decent environment and to serve as a guide to im- 
 proving, at least on a temporary basis, substan- 
 dard areas which lack even the minimum of ameni- 
 ties, or a semblance of order.

 Many cities in developing countries lack accept- 
 able community sewage disposal systems. The 
 failure to provide safe, effective means of dispos- 
 ing of human and other wastes present problems, 
 the seriousness of which cannot be overestimated. 
 The cost of constructing adequate treatment 
 plants often discourages their installation in cities 
 with limited budgets. However, treatment is possi- 
 ble by means of sewage lagoons which are usually 
 less expensive than more conventional methods.

 Since World War II, the desires-and real needs- 
 for better homes have intensified. For economic, 
 social, and political reasons great interest has de- 
 veloped in improving shelter for the ill-housed ma- 
 jority of the people of the world. In many countries, 
 families, except those in the higher income group, 
 build the houses they occupy. Self-help is the ac- 
 cepted way to build a house using local, readily 
 available materials and the labor of each family. 
 The basic principles of good design for aided self- 
 help are really no different than those of good 
 design anywhere. Effective arrangement; simple 
 construction techniques; and efficient use of labor 
 and materials, all considered in proper relation to 
 local conditions, customs, desires, and taboos, 
 can go far toward providing durable, livable houses 
 within available money resources. (Author)

 The major purpose of this project is to provide nu- 
 tritious meals and footdtuffs at low cost to older 
 persons living on marginal or poverty level in- 
 comes. Meals will be prepared so that they may be 
 eaten where purchased, or packaged so they may 
 be carried home or delivered to the homebound 
 when necessary. In addition to providing meals, 
 the project will seek to stretch the limited incomes 
 of the elderly through implementation of surplus 
 food programs, food stamp plans, and the devel- 
 opment of marketing, home economics and relat- 
 ed consumer education. Social action in connec- 
 tion with matters of consumer concern and protec- 
 tion will be encouraged. The project will provide 
 employment opportunities for residents of the 
 community being served, including the elderly, as 
 well as opportunities for volunteer services by 
 those who can afford to give of their time. Intensive 
 community relations and case finding will be un- 
 dertaken to insure maximum utilization of the pro- 
 gram by the elderly. (Author).

 Described in this report are the lengths, sizes and 
 approximate locations of sanitary sewers needed 
 to provide service to Shelby County through the 
 year 1990. The results of an extensive investiga- 
 tion of the existing interceptor sewers in the 
 County is also included. The construction of the 
 needed sewers is divided into five-year increments 
 beginning in 1970. Sewer capacity was determined 
 by studying population forecasts and land use pre- 
 dictions for the County. Estimated construction 
 costs for each phase are presented with unit costs 
 being forecast for the future based on previous 
 construction data. A detailed study of the sewage 
 treatment needs for the County is currently being 
 prepared for the City of Memphis, however, pre- 
 liminary costs of these facilities are included in the 
 report. (Author)

 but growing internal Puerto Rican market. Howev- 
 er, during the course of the investigation, the Con- 
 sultants became aware of a series of develop- 
 ments in the United States bicycle market that, 
 upon further investigation, led them to broaden the 
 original scope of the study to include an evaluation 
 of the feasibility of producing bicycles in Puerto 
 Rico for sale in this market and for shipment to the 
 United States. Nonetheless, the original concept 
 of a local market-oriented factory has been kept 
 intact, so the study provides an evaluation of that 
 possibility independently of an export market.

 General problems facing sewer designers have 
 been studied using field data collected in four U. S. 
 communities. Analysis of these data indicates that 
 basic causes of maintenance difficulties are tree 
 roots, accumulations of debris in the absence of 
 roots, other causes, and in areas having cohesion- 
 less sub-soil, sewer cave-ins. Proportionately 
 fewer blockages occur when grades are moderate, 
 and proportionately more occur at the upper termi- 
 nals of the sewers. In eight-inch pipe, manhole 
 spacing has little effect on the labor costs of stop- 
 page relief. Emphasis is placed on statistical tech- 
 niques for estimating domestic sewage flow. Flow 
 of rainwater and groundwater was at times found 
 to be excessive in all systems studied. Limited data 
 on costs of operating and maintaining sewage 
 pumping stations are reported and evaluated.

 The research demonstrates that durability of 3/8

 is strongly dependent on the species of wood. Fur- 
 thermore, the influence of species on durability 
 tends to be different for each type of glue. Twelve

 from each of the combinations of six species of 
 wood and ten glues. Plywood shear specimens 
 were subjected to each of six bond-degrading sys-

 The life cycle of the balsam woolly aphid (Adelges

 wood of various Abies species is briefly described. 
 Several methods, natural and chemical, for con- 
 trolling the pests are cited. The effect of advanced 
 infestation on the quality of pulp produced from 
 Abies wood by the different industrial processes is 
 shown to include a reduction in yield of 10% and a 
 decrease in strength of 20 to 30%. Recommenda- 
 tions regarding further pulping research are made 
 in the light of various economic considerations. It is 
 recommended that a detailed polysaccharide anal- 
 ysis be carried out on the aphid-infested wood of 
 Abies balsamea. (Author)

 which the existing mill cannot handle profitable. 
 The study included a survey of the wood supplies 
 and the selection of the optimum log conversion 
 configuration to profitable convert the available 
 small logs into saleable lumber and chips. Eight 
 configurations were studied for converting the 
 small logs to lumber. An in-depth analysis resulted

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 This report, in three volumes, is the result of a 
 study conducted by the Institute for Applied Tech- 
 nology of the National Bureau of Standards for the 
 Department of Housing and Urban Development. 
 This study investigated the following hypothesis: 'It 
 is hypothesized that, if adequate performance 
 standards for low-cost housing could be devel- 
 oped, and if they were broadly used, an important 
 and fundamental way would have been opened to 
 accommodate the introduction of cost-reducing in- 
 novations into the design of low-cost housing.' The 
 report finds this hypothesis to be generally correct, 
 but emphasizes the need for the development of 
 the necessary knowledge to implement the per- 
 formance concept. This volume contains appendi- 
 ces titled as follows: Needs of the rural poor in low 
 cost housing; Housing of Indians on reservations 
 and of Alaskan natives; Conceptual structure of 
 low cost/low income housing; Nature of the prob- 
 lem; Implementation of the performance concept 
 in regulatory and acceptance systems such as the 
 minimum property standards.

 The bibliography is part of a continuing project of

 bibliography was to provide a broad view of the 
 published literature dealing with the experience of 
 countries which have made substantial progress in 
 solving the social problems of housing and urban 
 development, paying particular attention to such 
 aspects as: an appropriate programme of econom- 
 ic development in urban and rural areas leading to 
 an accelerated raising of the standard of living, the 
 provision of appropriate dwellings for all, the initi- 
 ation and construction of housing for low-income 
 families, the keeping of rents within a reasonable 
 share of family incomes, the improvement of exist- 
 ing housing and the clearance of slums. (Author)

 The primary purpose of this study was to describe 
 the impact the addition of a community water 
 system to a small town would have upon that town 
 and the surrounding communities. The benefits of 
 the system were recognized by the residents and 
 some of the first round impacts were measured. 
 Benefits observed were increases in the number of 
 water using appliances, increases in property 
 values, improved fire protection and sanitary con- 
 ditions. (Author)

 A joint research effort was undertaken by the 
 Water Resources Research Center and the Hono- 
 lulu Board of Water Supply to investigate the physi- 
 cal and chemical characteristics of irrigation return 
 water in Pearl Harbor-Waipahu, Oahu, an area 
 used for tropical agriculture. The project was start- 
 ed in 1967 and was expanded in 1968 to include 
 Kahuku, Oahu and Central and West Maui. Well 
 samples and profile samples were obtained with a 
 thief sampler in the Pearl Harbor-Waipahu area 
 and composite samples were obtained mainly from 
 pumping wells in other areas. In addition, both 
 spring and stream waters in the Pearl Harbor-Wai- 
 pahu area were analyzed for a number of inorganic 
 constituents. Stream waters in the main study area 
 were observed to contain appreciable quantities of 
 nitrate, phosphate, bromide, bicarbonate, and flu- 
 oride. Similar trends were observed with the spring 
 samples including increases of calcium, magne- 
 sium, silica, sulfate, and nitrate. Well waters from 
 the main study area were evaluated according to 
 Visher and Mink's index constituents, silica, sul- 
 fate, and nitrate, and other significant ionic compo- 
 sitions. General analysis of major constituents evi- 
 denced a cyclical trend in concentration, either re- 
 lated to seasonal rainfall and irrigation practices, 
 or both. (WRSIC abstract)

 The report traces the history of cooperatives in 
 Ghana from 1928 to 1965, bases on government 
 records. From the beginning the movement has 
 suffered from government domination, inept man- 
 agement and instability. Single or multi-purpose 
 cooperatives have engaged in a wide range of 
 economic activities: buying, selling, credit, subsi- 
 dies, savings, research, extension and farming. 
 Major successes appear to be in the marketing of 
 export crops. Farmers seem eager enough to join 
 cooperatives but sustained benefits from member- 
 ship are not recorded. (AID abstract)

 The report describes the organization and first- 
 year operations of a small cooperative farm cre- 
 ated by the Catholic Church. The 16 farm families 
 are under administrative guidance of a hired ad- 
 ministrator. Credit and technical assistance are fur- 
 nished by INPROA, the church's agency to admin- 
 ister land reform on church properties. Data on 
 farm income and expenses indicate that families 
 earned more during the first year of the coopera- 
 tive than in previous years. They did not earn 
 enough to make payments on land purchased. If 
 management of the cooperative can be improved, 
 the cooperative probably can become free of debt. 
 However, trained or experienced managers are 
 scarce. (Author)

 A test was made of the sociological thesis that 
 land ownership is the basis of social class distinc-

 economic and political power. From 255 to 289 
 farmers were studied. The findings indicate that 
 the present structure of the rural sector does not 
 provide the non-owners with an opportunity to ef- 
 fectively manage their own interests in the larger 
 society. The virtual exclusion, purposive or not, of 
 non-owners from social and political participation 
 creates an environment in which they depend on 
 more privileged community members to serve as 
 brokers in their relations with the rests of the 
 system.' (AID abstract)

 The document describes features of the agrarian 
 reform bill proposed to the Chilean Senate. Land- 
 owners can retain 80 hectares of land, and up to 
 320 hectares under certain conditions. Expropriat- 
 ed lands are paid for at tax assessed value. Also, 
 compensation for improvements will be made. 
 Each annual payment will be readjusted to 70 per- 
 cent of the rise of the cost of living and will include 
 interest at 3 percent. The purchaser must live on 
 the farm, keep up his payments, and join a cooper- 
 ative. He cannot sell, divide, or give away his land 
 without permission from CORA. The state can hold 
 title to the land no longer than three years. Water 
 rights are to be defined and administered under 
 the proposed Bill. (AID abstract)

 and repossessed (from Trujillo) lands. Since 60 to 
 70 percent of the population were in agriculture 
 and from 25 to 30 percent of the people were un- 
 employed, the distribution of lands and titles free 
 to 20,000 farm families seemed reasonable. One 
 percent of all existing farms contained 54 percent 
 of all land in farms, while 50 percent of all farms 
 were smaller than 2.5 acres each. The government 
 could distribute nearly one million acres to as 
 many as 48,000 families. (AID abstract)

 The report describes two general types of conflict 
 that have resulted from the delay in giving legal 
 land titles to peasants for holdings as specified by 
 the 1952 land reform program. The first kind of 
 conflict arises between displaced landlords and 
 the new owners. The second type results from 
 land grabbing by peasants, competing claims for 
 land owned by deceased peasants, disputes in- 
 volving common lands, and claims based on sup- 
 posedly legal titles. Landlords still exploit peasants 
 by loaning them money at high interest rates, and 
 by persuading them to sell the land back to the 
 landlord at low prices. (AID abstract)

 The document is concerned with the ejido system 
 in Mexico, one in which the property rights in land 
 are vested in the community. A farmer may be 
 given use of the land for his lifetime, and he might 
 pass it on to an heir but he may not sell it, nor can 
 he rent it. If he does not work it for two years in 
 succession, it will be taken away and assigned to 
 some one else. The author points out the ejido 
 system has served a very valuable purpose but it 
 now needs revision to meet changing social condi- 
 tions in Mexico.

 The subsistence farmer has little freedom of 
 choice in his decisions, as he must produce to sur- 
 vive. Freedom to decide, to experiment and to risk 
 is infinitely greater among commercial farmers. 
 Patch contrasts peasants in Cochabamba, Bolivia 
 where land reform transpired with highland peas- 
 ants of Peru where no reforms had occurred. The 
 Bolivian peasant functions in an environment con- 
 ducive to development, with considerable freedom 
 of choice. The Peruvian peasant is a near-serf with 
 almost no freedom. The Bolivian peasant has im- 
 proved his economic, social and pplitical statuses 
 since land reform in 1953. He seels more products 
 and he buys more goods produced in the city. The 
 highlander is no longer an Indian; he is a person, 
 and with increasing independence. The Peruvian 
 neighbor has experienced no comparable 
 changes. (Author)

 The first part of the book is a pictorial story of rural 
 life in the Philippines. It describes group life, cul- 
 ture, and natural resources of the Philippines. The 
 section on population deals with numbers, distribu- 
 tion, age, sex, race, occupation, fertility, mortality 
 and income. Agriculture in the Philippines is the 
 chief source of livelihood for a large majority of the 
 rural population. The intricate problems associated 
 with Philippine agriculture are largely man-made, 
 namely the smallness of the farms, insecure farm 
 tenancy, shortage of farm credit, a lag in new farm- 
 ing methods, decreasing soil fertility and many 
 others. Major institutions are directly related to the 
 family, to ways of getting and using wealth and to 
 religion, government, education, health, welfare 
 and recreation. (AID abstract)

 historical context and a specific analysis of a con- 
 temporary developing country are both relevant, 
 the bibliography covers a wide range of materials.

 Four synthetic hydrograph methods were applied 
 on five watersheds in hopes of simplifying planning 
 decisions for reserved space in valley bottoms of 
 suburbia headwaters. Both hydrograph and routing 
 procedures were programmed for digital computer 
 evaluation for the more than 300 cases consid- 
 ered. General conclusions include the following. 
 (1) No simple rules can be given on width of flood- 
 ways to planners. Each case must be individually 
 investigated. (2) Computer methods greatly facili- 
 tate routing and synthetic hydrograph computa- 
 tions. (3) Generalizations are impossible because 
 interactions occur between the method used, the 
 return period, and the percentage of the watershed 
 above the reservoir among others. (4) A great 
 need exists for data-based methods for predicting 
 suburban design hydrographs in ungaged situa- 
 tions. (5) A new course on urban hydrology was 
 developed from the studies results. The course is 
 designed to teach hydrologists the modern tech- 
 niques which are being developed to solve this set 
 of urban problems. (WRSIC abstract)

 The report represents a study of agricultural 
 wastes in Kansas and the technology available for 
 economic utilization. The principal wastes that may 
 provide raw materials for profitable utilization are 
 identified and data on location and quantity of 
 each waste are presented. The most important ag- 
 ricultural waste in Kansas comes from large cattle 
 feedlots. Since disposal is costly to the cattle feed- 
 ing industry utilization technology is sought to pro- 
 vide raw material for economic development.

 The concept of establishing a mill to manufacture 
 corrugating medium on land owned by the Stand- 
 ing Rock Sioux Indian Tribe in the vicinity of Mo- 
 bridge, South Dakota has been to take advantage 
 of one of the area's abundant and relatively little- 
 used resources, wheat straw, as a principal ingre- 
 dient. The specific purpose of this study was to: (1 ) 
 determine the availability of sufficient straw to sup- 
 port the proposed mill; (2) to determine various 
 cost elements attendant to the collection and stor- 
 age of straw and the availability and procurement 
 costs of the other principal ingredient of the mill's 
 output - waste paper. (Author)

 The low income housing demonstration project is 
 part of the search for means of developing housing 
 to be utilized for low income domestic and often 
 migratory farm workers in the western states. The 
 objective was to study methods of construction, 
 building materials and supplies, and building plans 
 in three California areas which would produce inex- 
 pensive housing. A total of 28 units were built using 
 a variety of construction techniques. Studies of the 
 ■ 'nits and their occupants have been made and the 
 results are recorded. The report reflects building 
 costs and building construction features, as well as 
 the amenities or undesirable features of these 
 structures as seen through the eyes of profession- 
 al building evaluators, housing authority officials, 
 and the residents themselves. (Author)

 The report examines the economic feasibility of 
 fish protein concentrate (FPC) in two contexts: (1) 
 As a nutritional supplement in the diet of a devel- 
 oping country; and (2) as a competitive food addi- 
 tive in the United States. These subjects are exam- 
 ined with special reference to the role that the 
 United States Government should play in the de- 
 velopment of FPC. The Report recommends that: 
 Efforts to tie the FPC program to the domestic fish- 
 eries should be resisted; a reasoned, broadbased 
 program of research into the basic technology of 
 FPC is one of the better investments that the U.S. 
 could presently make, and that such a program 
 should be supported and strengthened; and the 
 Aberdeen, Washington pilot scale FPC processing 
 plant should be developed into a flexible, pilot 
 scale testing center for a variety of processes and 
 combinations of processes. A bibliography of 113 
 references is included. (Author)

 Water Measurement Procedures were written pri- 
 marily as a teaching aid in presenting the funda- 
 mentals of water measurement to field personnel 
 
 engaged in irrigation work. Technical material has 
 been simplified to provide a clear understanding of 
 water measurement devices and procedures. 
 Basic hydraulics presented include the discharge 
 equation, velocity head concept, orifice and weir 
 relationships, and the effect of submergence. Fac- 
 tors affecting the accuracy of measurement such 
 as work equipment, infrequent head measure- 
 ment, and use of wrong measuring devices are 
 analyzed. Commonly used devices and methods 
 are discussed, including orifices, weirs, Venturi 
 meters, Parshall and Venturi flumes, meter gates, 
 constant head turnouts, and propeller meters; spe- 
 cial devices and methods include vane deflection 
 meters, acoustic and magnetic meters, and the di- 
 lution and radioisotope methods of measurement. 
 Hints for troubleshooting poorly operating devices, 
 suggestions to operators on how to do a good job, 
 and a selected reading list for operators are given.

 The study was undertaken to assist developing 
 countries in making economically rational choices 
 in transport technologies-and thus to assist in 
 their economic development and eventually to 
 reduce the need for external capital assistance. 
 The study uses cost simulation models for road, 
 rail and air transport modes to develop guidelines 
 for planners, taking account of the varying condi- 
 tions of factor endowments (i.e., availabilities of 
 labor, capital, and other resources) in the develop- 
 ing countries. Investment decisions involving 
 choice of technology and mode may be expected 
 to be sensitive to differences in prices of inputs. 
 The sample problems of the report concern: A 
 comparison of investment in a new rail facility and 
 in a new road to serve a route between two traffic 
 centers (nodes); and an evaluation of the various 
 trade-offs involving vehicle technology and airport 
 investment. (DOT abstract)

 The report establishes that protein malnutrition 
 exists in certain groups in Korea, and that fish pro- 
 tein concentrate (FPC) might contribute to amelior- 
 ating this shortage. Present economics and raw 
 material shortages, however, mitigate against a 
 self-priming commercial FPC operation in Korea 
 today. However, some alternative paths for protein 
 relief through FPC are possible. The report reviews 
 protein nutrition, and the Korean protein system, 
 and calculates the 'protein gap' for the groups and 
 determines the cost/effectiveness of protein forti- 
 fication. It examines the feasibility of producing 
 FPC locally, the implications of a protein supple- 
 ment program on national nutrition policies and the 
 cost of closing the protein gap. (Author)

 Water resources for arid and semiarid regions of 
 the United States are only marginal at the present 
 time and new sources of water are no longer avail- 
 able. Artificial recharge techniques are presented 
 as one method of partially alleviating the problem. 
 Artificial recharge is presented in the context of the 
 water depletion of the Ogallala formation on the 
 High Plains of Texas. There, as in the United 
 States as a whole, irrigated agriculture is the major 
 water user. Several recharge mechanisms are dis- 
 cussed, such as recharge wells, shafts, holes, pits, 
 trenches, rubble cones, and water spreading. All of 
 the methods share the problem of sediment con- 
 tent in water used for recharge, but the problem is 
 not insurmountable. In some cases economic 
 value of artificially recharged water has already 
 outweighted the limitations. (WRSIC-abstract)

 The paper contains findings and implications deriv- 
 ing from A.I.D.'s Spring Review of Land Reform, 
 1970. The findings are: there is a clear economic 
 case for land reform; both the political will and po- 
 litical capacity for land reform are critical; land 
 reform is likely to be politically stabilizing over the 
 long run; urbanization is not an adequate alterna- 
 tive to land reform; colonization has not been a 
 viable alternative to land reform; complementary 
 measures are important for a reform's success. 
 The implications are: land tenure is a significant di- 
 mension in overall development; support of land 
 reform need not be withheld for fear of adverse 
 economic results; where a dominant political will is 
 lacking A.I.D. should take careful cognizance of 
 what probable effects its assistance program may 
 have on either prolonging or ameliorating existing 
 inequities in land tenure; A.I.D. should not support 
 a land reform which is basically just window dress- 
 ing; external assistance may be constructively ap- 
 plied on many aspects of the reform; the question 
 of how and when a land reform should be carried 
 
 out must be determined by each individual country; 
 these findings and implications point clearly to 
 A.I.D. staffing needs. (Author)

 The report examines the economic feasibility of 
 fish protein concentrate in two contexts: as a nutri- 
 tional supplement in the diet of a developing coun- 
 try, and as a competitive food additive in the United 
 States. The report examines the subject with spe- 
 cial reference to the role that the United States 
 Government should play in the development of 
 FPC. Fish protein concentrate designates any 
 stable powder resulting from the removal of oil and 
 water from fish which is aimed at human consump- 
 tion. When we are referring to a particular variety of 
 FPC, we will attempt to make this specialization 
 clear either explicitly or by the context.

 Field experiments were conducted in Puerto Rico 
 at the Lajas Substation to determine optimum soil 
 moisture conditions necessary to produce maxi- 
 mum sugarcane and sugar yields. Twenty irrigation 
 regimes were tested. Some of the plots were irri- 
 gated frequently and others were irrigated less fre- 
 quently in the active root zone throughout the 
 growing period. Nitrogen fertilizer treatments were 
 tested at the rate of 200 and 300 pounds per acre 
 per crop. Data were taken for a 13-month plant 
 cane and two 12-month ratoons of sugarcane. The 
 plant cane used more water than the ratoon crop. 
 The mean consumptive use per day was 0.160 
 inch for plant can and 0.154 inch for ratoon in the 
 frequently irrigated plots throughout the growing 
 period. The average of the combined yields of a 
 plant cane and two ratoons were 73.67 tons of 
 sugarcane and 7.80 tons of sugar per acre in the 
 frequently irrigated plots and 59.37 tons of sugar- 
 cane and 6.40 tons of sugarcane per acre in the 
 less frequently irrigated plots. (WRSIC abstract)

 The fareastern phytophagous fishes - the white 
 and variegated silver-carps, and the white amur - 
 are new objects of fish culture. Despite the brief 
 period of their propagation here and the fact that 
 experimentation concerning their commercial 
 adoption is far from complete, these fishes com- 
 prise an ever greater share of the fish production 
 generated at fish farms. In such areas as the Kras- 
 nodar region and the Uzbek SSR, they now com- 
 prise about one-half of the market fish reared. 
 
 Pond culture currently is undergoing a fundamen- 
 tal reorganization, transforming from the monocul- 
 ture of carp to the more highly productive and eco- 
 nomically profitable polyculture. This manual con- 
 siders the cumulative experience and deals with 
 the latest questions on the propagation and rear- 
 ing of phytophagous fishes. (Author)

 A general technology assessment methodology is 
 used to assess the impacts of developments in 
 enzyme science and technology with particular 
 emphasis on industrial applications. Forecasts are 
 presented of likely technological developments 
 and application areas are described in which the 
 impacts have significant societal interactions. 
 Case studies include detergents, biodegradable 
 containers, conversion of dextrose to starch, pos- 
 sible substitute for cane sugar, cellulases, and en- 
 zymes used against oil spills. Forecasts are made 
 of the societal impact areas which will be most af- 
 fected by enzyme technology. First-order impacts 
 and higher order interactions are presented. 
 Action options are described which could influence 
 the developments of enzyme technology in desir- 
 able directions. (Author)

 A general technology assessment methodology is 
 used to determine the impacts of mariculture on 
 the developing countries. The technology is con- 
 fined to application in coastal and brackish waters. 
 A quantitative impact analysis of economic and 
 social factors is shown for the years 1975-1989. 
 Various action options are offered and a revised 
 impact forecast is given for increased impact on 
 the malnutrition problem. The problems and con- 
 straints to accelerated mariculture application are 
 analyzed, and a forecast of 20 million tons of mari- 
 culture production in 1985 is made. Also, a subjec- 
 tive probability of which countries will apply mari- 
 culture is given. (Author)

 A general technology assessment methodology is 
 used to determine the impacts of widespread use 
 of individual home sewage treatment technology 
 during the 1970-1989 time period. The effects of 
 varying rates of diffusion of this technology are 
 analyzed in terms of selected measures of eco- 
 nomic and environmental impact. Social and insti- 
 tutional impacts are discussed. Various action op- 
 tions available to identified interest groups are 
 analyzed in terms of their effect upon technology 
 diffusion rates and specific impact areas. The nor- 
 mative nature of this technology assessment 
 called for the use of a dynamic interactive model of 
 the technology diffusion process. (Author)

 In order to assess the value for dryland cropping in 
 a semi-arid region of concentrating rainfall by 
 means of micro-watersheds, a study was estab- 
 lished with width of micro-watershed, width of 
 growing bed, plant population, and applied level of 
 nitrogen fertilizer as variables. Due to very low rain- 
 fall, little water was available for concentration and 
 yields of winter wheat and winter barley were very 
 low and were decreased with increasing amount of 
 watershed area (proportionately less of area plant- 
 ed). A study on use of herbicides indicates propa- 
 zine and atrazine applied on the watershed areas 
 may control weeds without injury to crops. It was 
 concluded that the first year results of the study 
 were atypical because of extreme drought and that 
 several years data will be necessary in order to 
 sample various amounts and patterns of annual 
 rainfall and to determine the cumulative effects.

 Two tropical soils from Hawaii were tested for sa- 
 linity tolerances, the ability of the soils to resist 
 physical deterioration by saline waters. Hydraulic 
 conductivity measurements showed that presently 
 permissible limits of salinity and sodium in irrigation 
 water can be safely raised because significant haz- 
 ardous physical conditions are not likely to occur. 
 Both soils possess high resistance to detrimental 
 peptization even when exposed to extreme sodic 
 conditions. The original acidities of soils are highly 
 resistant to change under leaching. Neither soil 
 had a tendency to accumulate soluble salts by ex- 
 traction from percolating saline waters. The direct 
 determination of ionic activities for sodium, cal- 
 cium and magnesium ions as a new and more fun- 
 damental tool in soil salinity work is discussed.

 The consistently poor performance of septic tanks 
 indicates that other waste disposal methods are

 more rigorous regulation of design criteria, installa- 
 tion, and operation are required in sparsely inhabit- 
 ed areas suitable for septic tank installations. The

 Triiodide combined with strong base anion ex- 
 change resins forms stable, nearly insoluble, com- 
 plexes that have remarkable disinfecting capabili- 
 ties. Complete kills are effected with water suspen- 
 sions of virus (both DNA and RNA) Gram negative 
 and Gram positive bacteria (whether capsulated or 
 not), and viability of sporulating Bacilli species is 
 reduced up to 99.9%. Water to be treated is simply 
 passed through a column of the resin-complex. 
 The bacteria or virus, shown by 14C or 3H tracers, 
 pass through the column and are not filtered out. 
 Kill is immediate and irreversible. No 12, I3(-), IO(-), 
 IO(3(-), and I04(-) are detected when the cadmium 
 iodide-linear starch reagent method was used. 
 Iodide, the halide form, was found in amounts 
 ranging from 0.2-0.5 PPM. This is well below the 
 taste threshold and indeed may be considered 
 beneficial in iodine deficient areas.

 in cooperative housing in developing countries, the 
 subject has been explored in greater depth and 
 from a different point of view than in an earlier pub-

 Isolated by geography, lacking low-cost means of 
 transportation, the Central Africa Republic earns 
 comparatively little from her exports, and pays 
 heavily for her imports. It is considered imperative 
 that the C.A.R. reorient her economy towards man- 
 ufacture of goods for her own market. A survey 
 was made of private investment opportunities in in- 
 
 dustry and commerce in the C.A.R. Five possible 
 new industries - storage batteries, asbestos 
 cement, starch, reconstituted mild and ice cream, 
 and tomato puree - were selected on the basis of 
 this survey and studied in detail. In each case, it 
 was found that the industry can operate to serve 
 C.A.R. 's internal market, to reduce present prices, 
 and to earn a profit of at least 25% per annum.

 The problem of providing suitable shelter in the 
 world's less developed nations is one of critical ur- 
 gency. While this problem grows more and more 
 acute, the industrialized nations of North America 
 and Europe are struggling to meet their own hous- 
 ing needs through an increasingly advanced tech- 
 nology. It is a natural consequence of this process 
 for housing manufacturers, technicians and public 
 officials to seek possible applications of this ad- 
 vanced technology in less developed countries. In 
 recent years, HUD's Office of International Affairs 
 has increasingly been called upon to advise do- 
 mestic housing producers and, through AID, for- 
 eign governments and developers on the appropri- 
 ateness of industrialized techniques abroad. It has 
 attempted to correct widely held misconceptions, 
 while witnessing the costly failures of many at- 
 tempts to develop criteria to assess the value of 
 existing industrialized systems abroad, and at the 
 same time to assist in the design of new systems 
 created specifically for that market. (Author)

 The establishment of a first industry in an underde- 
 veloped region stimulates others into being; a 
 small beginning is enough to set up a chain reac- 
 tion. This principle has been demonstrated time 
 and again in the Philippines and in other develop- 
 ing countries. The document shows how this start 
 was made in the highly agricultural provinces in the 
 Philippines and the proper way for it to develop. In 
 addition to a general discussion of principles and 
 procedures, the document contains, for the pur- 
 pose of providing a concrete example, a detailed 
 report of a survey made of a single Philippine prov- 
 ince (Tarlac) to obtain practical information con- 
 cerning its resources, natural advantages, and the 
 desires of its people regarding industrialization.

 Project Colorado is a program of cooperation for 
 industrial development in the State of Bahia, Brazil. 
 The objectives, to develop new small, rural indus- 
 tries and to train business and engineering lead- 
 ers, are accomplished by utilizing faculty and stu- 
 dents from the University of Bahia and Colorado 
 State University. The industrial development activi- 
 ties are based on a thorough analysis of the ad- 
 vantages and opportunities the region has to offer. 
 Feasibility studies, followed by preliminary designs, 
 were made for the following industries: Poultry and 
 egg; ceramic products; peanut oil extraction; 
 slaughterhouse for cattle and hogs; mandioca 
 processing; and fruit processing. The document 
 contains detailed reports of each of these industri- 
 al prospects by the personnel who contributed to 
 the general evaluation, the marketing data, and the 
 production requirements.

 The report sets out observations based on a visit 
 to Turkey made in January 1 965 by the Executive 
 Administrator of the U. S. Small Business Adminis- 
 tration. The purpose of the visit was to evaluate 
 certain plans of the Government of Turkey de- 
 signed to modernize small-scale industry, to pro- 
 mote its integration into a balanced pattern of in- 
 dustrial development, and to create in small indus- 
 
 try a significant capacity for import substitution and 
 export activities. The topics covered in the report 
 include: Role of small industry in Turkey; planning 
 for small industry; current activities to support 
 small industry; some useful principles to guide the 
 development and operation of small industry pro- 
 grams; comments on the small industry programs 
 in Turkey; an agency for small industry programs.

 The report presents the findings and conclusions 
 of an Industrial Coordination Survey of the Central 
 African sub-region of Cameroun, Central African 
 Republic, Chad, Congo, Democratic Republic of 
 the Congo (Zaire), and Gabon. The principle objec- 
 tive of the study, which was done in association 
 with the Economic Commission for Africa, was to 
 investigate the possibilities for sub-regional harmo- 
 nization of industrial development. A list of indus- 
 tries that appear to have a market potential in the 
 sub-region was developed, and certain specific in- 
 dustries were considered in detail with respect to 
 coordination. The report also contains a section 
 dealing with entrepreneurship and the encourage- 
 ment of industrial growth in the sub-region.

 A feasibility study, reported in PB-206 799, estab- 
 lished the desirability of investigating the use of 
 foam plastics as structural materials, in the belief 
 that such a development could contribute towards 
 a resolution of housing problems throughout the 
 world. This report describes a research program 
 aimed at exploring the structural potential of these 
 materials for housing in underdeveloped areas. A 
 review is provided of plastics from the standpoint 
 of physical properties, raw materials resources, 
 production, and marketing. A detailed description 
 is given of a structural investigation of foam plas- 
 tics, and a number of demonstration structures are 
 analytically described. (Author)

 Cooperative economic-development planning on a 
 basis that includes the entire West African sub- 
 region promises to result in an industrial develop- 
 ment pattern that might contribute to a more effec- 
 tive and economic utilization of African resources 
 and to improvement in living standards. This re- 
 
 quires, however, obtaining an overview of what a 
 feasible industrialization pattern for specific indus- 
 tries within the sub-region might be over a period 
 of 1 to 1 5 years. An attempt is made, in the report, 
 to answer some of the basic questions along these 
 lines for the leather and shoe industry in West 
 Africa. Consideration is given to West African mar- 
 kets for leather and shoes, current production ca- 
 pabilities, feasible expansion of leather and shoe 
 production to 1980, and the potential importance 
 to economic development of West Africa.

 Livestock are among the principal resources of the 
 West African Savanna zone, and surplus livestock 
 have, for centuries, supplied some of the con- 
 sumption needs of the populous Coastal cities 
 many hundreds of miles to the south. It is believed 
 that this traditional livestock trade can be rationa- 
 lized principally by more slaughterhouses in the 
 producing zone, and subsequent shipment of meat 
 to the consuming areas. This procedure would 
 tend to add more value to the products of the stock 
 raising countries, while providing better and 
 cheaper meat to consumers. Accordingly, an eco- 
 nomic and technical analysis was undertaken 
 aimed at inducing U. S. private investment in the 
 livestock industry in Niger and Upper Volta to 
 serve markets in Ivory Coast, Togo, Dahomey, 
 Ghana, Nigeria, and other appropriate markets. 
 Consideration was given to availability of livestock 
 in Niger and Upper Volta, and type of existing po- 
 tential consumer markets.

 establishing facilities to distill ipecac in Bolivia. It 
 was found that such a facility would be economi- 
 cally sound only under one or both of two condi- 
 tions: (1) that the cultivation of ths source plant be 
 encouraged; and (2) that it be operated in conjunc- 
 tion with the extraction of other products, such as 
 cocillana, achiote, and cinchona.

 extent aquatic vegetation, such as water hyacinth, 
 will interfere with the operation and maintenance 
 of the project. This document is the report of a 
 team that was assembled to assess problems, 
 evaluate present methods of dealing with these 
 problems, and make design and research recom- 
 mendations relevant to multi-purpose water re- 
 source projects in the Lower Mekong Basin. In- 
 cluded in the report are a section on growth poten- 
 tials describing a number of local factors bearing 
 on the aquatic weed problem. (Author)

 Housing sites and services projects are not a new 
 idea, but the adoption of the concept on a massive 
 scale is only just now gaining credibility as the 
 most feasible method for dealing with the vast 
 numbers of low-income people seeking land and 
 shelter in the developing world. This document 
 analyzes reasons that sites and services projects 
 should be a major part of the urbanization program 
 of the developing countries. It also discusses the 
 lessons to be learned from previous worldwide ex- 
 perience with the sites and services concept. A 
 method is proposed for planning the sites and 
 services project, and suggestions are given as to 
 how the individual project should be viewed in the 
 context of a national program.

 The African Primary Science Program has been 
 developed in eight different African countries and 
 is currently in the initial stages of implementation in 
 these countries. The program differs from conven- 
 tional science teaching in that it attempts to pro- 
 vide an opportunity for children to know the world 
 on their own terms. Its goals are to equip children 
 with the basis for having their own ideas of inter- 
 esting ways to use materials that are available to 
 them, of having interesting questions to ask about 
 things, and of ways to go about answering their 
 questions. The report provides an evaluation of the 
 program. In the process, it describes an evaluation 
 methodology which involves the observation of 
 various aspects of children's activity, alone and in 
 groups, in a manner which is conducive to an un- 
 derstanding of what is actually happening.

 with temperate zone soils, have never really been 
 evaluated for the climatic conditions, the soils, and 
 the traffic patterns of tropical Africa. It was there- 
 fore decided that lateritic materials, so plentiful in 
 tropical areas, should be studied in a thorough re-

 with emphasis on Ghana. A review of the pertinent

 amines the accuracy of the resulting flow esti- 
 mates. The results of a questionnaire surveys 
 among a sample of developing countries suggest 
 that decisions on the duration, frequency, and 
 timing of counts are at present arbitrary. It is sug- 
 gested that for increase in the accuracy of rural 
 traffic estimates automatic traffic counters be used 
 on a wider scale than at present.

 desalted water, the report looks at water costs, 
 economies of scale and other marketing factors. 
 Applications of desalting technology are consid- 
 ered for incremental supply, to improve quality of 
 supply, for intermittent operations, in dual-purpose 
 plants, to renovate water for reuse, and for agricul- 
 ture. The report concludes that desalting is pres- 
 ently a technically feasible source of new water for 
 situations of specialized need, and makes re-

 for more effective use of scientific and technical 
 information in development efforts, and then out- 
 lines a rationale for increased technical assistance 
 in this area. A review is provided of the functions of 
 the information transfer process and the neces- 
 sary components of the information infrastructure. 
 Consideration is given to specific information re-

 areas of industrial technology, natural resources, 
 and the scientific and technical disciplines. Finally, 
 a series of recommendations are presented en- 
 compassing policy, priorities, programming, admin-

 A functional farm workshop is a most valuable 
 asset to any university farm. It is even more impor- 
 tant in developing countries that are remote from 
 ready access to machinery replacements, space 
 parts, and company field men. In order to keep ma- 
 chinery in the best working condition, a thorough 
 preventive maintenance program must be devel- 
 oped and closely adhered to. This handbook is in- 
 tended as a guide for such a program. The first 
 portion concerns itself with farm machinery safety; 
 this is followed by a discussion of the structure and 
 role of the mechanic section of a farm operations 
 department. (Author)

 The ceramic industry of Thailand is just beginning 
 to emerge as an economic force in the kingdom. 
 The rapid growth of the ceramic market in Thailand 
 has let to marked expansion in domestic produc- 
 tion and has attracted large joint venture invest- 
 ments in manufacturing facilities for ceramic prod- 
 ucts formerly imported. This report reviews availa- 
 ble data and information on Thailand's ceramic in- 
 dustry and trade. Included is information on exist- 
 ing ceramic enterprises as well as approved or 
 planned industrial projects. Sources, relative 
 prices, and the volume of imports are discussed, 
 as well as other aspects of the growth potential in 
 the ceramic sector. Data are also included on raw 
 materials and their locations in the kingdom. A pre- 
 liminary identification is made of investment oppor- 
 tunities. (Author)

 of beneficial changes by the populace. This docu- 
 ment reports the results of a communication ex- 
 periment which attempted to induce adoption of 
 modern agricultural, health, and family planning 
 practices by the inhabitants of a number of villages 
 
 near Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. The study 
 sought to evaluate the continuing effects of two 
 communication treatments: radio farm forums, and 
 literacy training classes. The results indicate that 
 while knowledge of the practices spreads rather 
 quickly, adoption is slow and at low levels. Some 
 progress was made, however, and clear cut differ-

 Ammonia is the principal form in which fixed nitro- 
 gen is used in the manufacture of fertilizer materi- 
 als. The production of ammonia by reacting hydro- 
 gen with atmospheric nitrogen is the basis of the 
 modern nitrogen fertilizer industry. The report com- 
 pares the economics in developing countries of im- 
 porting ammonia from suppliers having large 
 plants and low-cost feedstocks with those of pro- 
 ducing the material under local conditions. Three 
 countries, India, South Vietnam, and Uruguay, are 
 used as a basis of the comparison. As these coun- 
 tries have widely divergent needs for fertilizer ma- 
 terials, the costs applicable to them should be rep- 
 resentative of many other developing countries 
 with similar needs and resources. (Author)

 The study evaluates the impact on land and water

 analogs and extenders were substituted for part of 
 the beef consumption in the year 2000 or nitrogen 
 fertilizer application in the year 2000 were restrict- 
 ed to 100 pounds per acre and 50 pounds per 
 acre. The study is based on a large-scale linear 
 programming model of U.S. agriculture. Results of 
 the soy protein meats policy models indicate that 
 with soy protein meats accepted by consumers, 
 productive capacity of U.S. agriculture would sur- 
 pass any level previously experienced in this 
 nation. Results of the two fertilizer limitation policy 
 models indicate that a mild restriction on the use of 
 nitrogen fertilizer would not strain the productive 
 capacity of U.S. agriculture. A severe restriction, 
 however, would reduce the supply capacity of U.S. 
 agriculture considerably. (Author)

 The water-related disease schistosomiasis (or bil- 
 harziasis) infects more people today than ever 
 before in history, perhaps as many as 200 million 
 people. Its increasing incidence and widespread 
 prevalence are due in large measure to tropical irri- 
 gation and hydroelectric projects, implemented by 
 engineers. This report provides background infor- 
 mation on schistosomiasis and its control to 
 enable engineers to work effectively with other 
 professionals in design and operation of schistoso- 
 miasis control programs. It also seeks to improve 
 understanding on the part of epidemiologists, ma- 
 lacologists, physicians, and others of the role of 
 engineers in control of schistosomiasis. The pres- 
 ent status of engineering measures for schistoso- 
 miasis control is summarized, and some possible 
 approaches and opportunities for more effective 
 control of schistosomiasis by engineers are out- 
 lined. A bibliography of relevant publications is in-

 The report is an end product of a study undertaken 
 to identify practical methods for increasing the effi- 
 ciency with which staple foodstuffs are marketed 
 in tropical Africa. It describes the structure of se- 
 lected food marketing systems in tropical Africa in 
 terms of product flow, exchange levels, personnel, 
 and marketing; it appraises the performance of the 
 system; and it identified measures that might be 
 adopted to improve its efficiency. The specific sub- 
 jects of the report are the trade in staple foodstuffs 
 in the supply hinterlands of four major cities: Nair- 
 obi, Kenya; Enugu, Nigeria; Ibadan, Nigeria; and 
 Freetown, Sierra Leone. (Author)

 As part of an overall effort to reduce the outlay of 
 foreign exchange for the importation of beef, the 
 Government of Peru is striving to develop to the 
 fullest extent the country's fisheries resources. An 
 important part of this effort involves aquaculture. 
 This report reviews the present status of aquacul- 
 ture in Peru and provides a series of recommenda- 
 tions for future development. Some of the topics 
 covered include the potential for coldwater and 
 warmwater fishculture; a proposed project for cul- 
 turing fish in pens; a proposed warmwater aquacul- 
 tural research station; organizational structure of 
 the Ministry of Fisheries; existing fisheries stations 
 and equipment; and fisheries personnel and their 
 training. (Author)

 Protein deficiency is a major problem in Central 
 America, as it is in most sociefe» : throughout the 
 world that occupy similar ecosystems. An apparent 
 measure to correct this deficiency in utilizable pro- 
 tein would be to increase the production and con- 
 sumption of animal protein, but the approach has 
 very serious economic and socio-cultural limita- 
 tions. A nutrition improvement approach that ap- 
 pears to be feasible is the fortification of a food 
 that is normally part of the regular diet to a level 
 sufficient to correct the protein deficiency. In the 
 Central American countries corn, which is con- 
 sumed primarily in the form of tortilla, would seem 
 to lend itself well to this technique. This document 
 outlines a proposed field methodology to deter- 
 mine the feasibility of the corn fortification ap- 
 proach at the community level. (Author)

 Bolivia annually imports over $23 million of agricul- 
 tural products, including wheat, edible oils, fibers, 
 and dairy products. Wheat is by far the most costly 
 of these imports, and it also seems the most ame- 
 nable to increased domestic production through 
 the use of new varieties and fertilizers. With lower 
 costs, fertilizer could also be profitably used on 
 
 such crops as corn, quinoa, rice, cotton, and sug- 
 arcane. This document provides a review of the 
 fertilizer program in Bolivia, evaluates its need for 
 fertilizer plants, and analyzes the possibilities for 
 fertilizer marketing. (Author)

 The geographical locale of Karachi, with access to 
 known productive tuna fishing areas along with a 
 coastal population of traditional fishermen, are fa- 
 vorable considerations in the development of a 
 deep sea tuna fishing industry for Pakistan. There 
 is an increasing world demand for both frozen and 
 canned tuna, especially in the highly industrialized 
 nations of the world. This market offers the oppor- 
 tunity for Pakistan to earn foreign exchange for 
 such other goods that are required for industrial 
 expansion and economic development. This report 
 is primarily concerned with two aspects of tuna 
 fishery development: a fishery fleet, and a fish can- 
 nery. (Author)

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 A two volume compilation, review and critique of 
 the literature on biological trickling filter studies 
 and related pollution abatement processes have 
 been made. In the report, the literature review and 
 critical analysis, is divided into: Introduction, defini- 
 tions, history and background theory of the trick- 
 ling filter process; Plant design, materials of con- 
 struction, operation, maintenance and perform- 
 ance; Trickling filter research and development ap- 
 proaches, ecology, and patents, and Applications 
 of trickling filter to specific industrial wastes. Based 
 on the review, several general conclusions were 
 drawn. There is no well-defined theory of design 
 and operation. Much published work was redun- 
 dant, and European efforts were not readily ac- 
 cepted in the United States, and vice versa. The 
 literature reflects cycles of interest in trickling fil- 
 ters. The process is not applicable to all pollution 
 problems, but its shock survival capabilities and 
 rapid flow-through time are definite advantages 
 which cannot be overlooked in any design of a 
 waste treatment facility.

 Water has long been recognized as one of Nepal's 
 most promising resources. Yet, prior to 1 960 little 
 had been done to investigate and appraise the re- 
 source. By 1969, a nationwide network of hydrolo- 
 gical stations had been established, and a ground- 
 water exploration effort had begun. Furthermore, 
 the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology had 
 been established, staffed, and equipped to con-

 relation of these investigations to the social and 
 economic problems of water-resources develop- 
 ment and management. The general hydrology of 
 the more important river systems of the country is 
 described in detail. (Author)

 Improved crop protection can do little to reduce 
 the population explosion in East Asia, but it can 
 make important contributions toward assuring an 
 adequate food supply until populations become 
 stabilized through family planning and birth control. 
 This document is the report of a study team which 
 has as its objective the appraisal of the nature and 
 the scope of pest problems affecting food produc- 
 tion in the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, 
 Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japan. An effort was 
 also made to determine whether the local environ- 
 ment and public health are endangered by improp- 
 er use and lack of management of pesticides on 
 
 food and other major crops. Specifically, consider- 
 ation is given to the status and needs of crop pro- 
 tection in Tropical East Asia; economic and envi- 
 ronmental implications of crop protection; possible 
 approaches to solutions of crop protection prob- 
 lems; some international and foreign agencies in 
 plant protection activities in tropical East Asia; and

 A study has been made of waste treatment meth- 
 ods and practices used in the textile industry. Infor- 
 mation was obtained from people working in the 
 textile processing industry, designing waste treat- 
 ment plants, and enforcing state and federal regu- 
 lations on waters discharged to streams and natu- 
 ral reservoirs. To supplement this information the 
 literature was reviewed and an annotated bibliog- 
 raphy prepared. The report contains sections on 
 the following: characteristics of textile waste,

 The objective of the project was to demonstrate 
 and evaluate two alternative refuse storage and 
 collection container systems for small isolated 
 rural areas, with special emphasis on costs, work- 
 ability, and community acceptance. The test area 
 
 for the project is to be the southern one-third of 
 Humboldt County, California, with a population of 
 approximately 10,000 people. In the first system, 
 waste will be deposited in a 40-cu-yd, roll-off con- 
 tainer that can be picked up and hauled to the cen- 
 tral sanitary landfill. In the second system, waste 
 will be deposited in 8-cu-yd containers. These con- 
 tainers will be emptied at the site into a 42-cu-yd 
 collection vehicle that will then proceed to the next 
 container site or, if full, to the landfill. The interim 
 report details the selection of collection equipment 
 (both containers and vehicles) components, and 
 the development of test procedures for evaluating 
 the storage and collection systems.

 Vietnam has a variety of fiber resources which in 
 total constitute an adequate raw material for a pulp 
 and paper industry. The present paper industry 
 was built with only the domestic market in mind, 
 and currently it is entirely dependent on import of 
 pulp. Under these circumstances of small size and 
 imported raw material, the paper industry in Viet- 
 nam suffers from high costs. This study examines 
 the feasibility of developing a viable pulp and 
 paper industry in Vietnam in the early post-war 
 period. The scope of the study includes: A review 
 of the existing industry, including facilities, capaci- 
 ties, capabilities, and cost factors; a survey of 
 present and possible future markets, both domes- 
 tic and in neighboring Southeast Asian countries; a 
 survey of indigenous fibrous raw materials, includ- 
 ing types, amounts available, location, and cost; a 
 proposal of location, number, type, and capacity of 
 new facilities; and a calculation of grade costs, net 
 realization, and financial soundness of the pro- 
 posed facilities.

 With about one-half of the world's forest area lo- 
 cated in the developing countries, adequate forest 
 programs to manage and exploit this renewable 
 
 natural resource are an important aspect in eco- 
 nomic development. This preliminary analysis fo- 
 cuses on the following issues: principal factors in- 
 hibiting better management of forest resources; 
 technical aspects of these inhibiting factors; practi- 
 cal steps that might overcome these problems; 
 and likely impact on timber resources and utiliza- 
 tion if such steps were taken.

 Korea belongs to the category of developing coun- 
 try which have small, therefore open, labor surplus 
 dualistic economies, characterized by a relative 
 lack of natural resources and an abundance of un- 
 skilled labor at the outset. This paper begins with a 
 definition of the 'ideal' growth pattern for this type 
 of economy. A review is then provided of the actual 
 Korean experience relative to this ideal. Korean 
 performance in this respect is contrasted to two 
 other countries belonging to the same family; i.e. 
 Japan, historically, and Taiwan in the post-war 
 period. Consideration is given to the initial condi- 
 tions and to the similarities and differences of the 
 transition processes in the countries. Finally, the 
 implications of this analysis with respect to further 
 research and policy are discussed.

 All economic integration schemes among less de- 
 veloped countries which have been established to 
 date have foundered on the problem of how to 
 equitably distribute the benefits arising from hte 
 existence of the scheme. The Cartagena Agree- 
 ment of the Andean Group customs union (Bolivia, 
 Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru) includes sev- 
 eral measures bearing on this problem. The paper 
 provides a theoretical analysis of the benefit distri- 
 bution problem, and an evaluation of the benefit 
 distribution provisions of the Cartagena Agree- 
 ment. Consideration is given to the definition of an 
 'Equitable' benefit distritution, some problems in 
 measuring net benefits, and the presumptions as 
 to whether benefits are likely to be equally or un- 
 equally distributed in integration schemes. A 
 number of schemes which have been proposed 
 and/or adopted to achieve equitable benefit distri- 
 bution are then examined from a theoretical view- 
 point. The measures contained in the Cartagena 
 Agreement are analyzed in the light of this exami- 
 nation, and of the experience of other integration 
 schemes with the benefit distribution problem.

 In the mid-1 960's, the Agency for International De- 
 velopment decided that the Nicaraguan industrial 
 sector needed access to investment capital to fi- 
 nance a backlog of projects. AID met this need by 
 making $17 million available to create and 
 strengthen intermediate credit institutions to mobi- 
 lize capital, both foreign and domestic. This report 
 provides an assessment of the efficacy of the AID 
 programs to the private industrial sector of Nicara- 
 gua and suggests changes that might improve 
 them. Specifically, consideration is given to the fol- 
 lowing: Past rate of growth; prospects for industry 
 in Micaragua; strategic factors in industrial expan- 
 sion; shortage for working capital and the debt/ 
 equity problems; cost of AID capital; investment 
 climate in the industrial sector; aid contribution to 
 meeting long-term capital needs; strengthening 
 the capacity of the National Development Institute 
 (INFONAC); creation of a new private investment 
 bank; AID loan program as a stimulant to domestic 
 savings; loans to small businesses and artisans; 
 providing technical assistance; performance and 
 impact of the industrial sector in recent years.

 impact of negative environmental conditions on 
 their performance. It also seeks to determine the 
 extent to which managerial practices, techniques,

 spread scale in U. S. industry can be transferred 
 and/or applied successfully to a developing coun- 
 try such as India. Consideration is given to the 
 costs and benefits involved in the transference 
 process, and to the degree that the Indian environ- 
 ment seriously constrains or prevents such trans- 
 ference. In addition, attention is given to the devel- 
 opment of guidelines and meaningful priorities that 
 indicate what action might best be taken by public 
 authorities in dealing with environmental con- 
 straints which seriously hinder managerial per- 
 formance and productive efficiency at industrial 
 enterprises.

 families. It is orientated primarily to the situation in 
 developing economics and is centered on the in- 
 dustrial growth requirements of selected cities in 
 the states of Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, 
 in northern India. An examination is made of the 
 widely held belief that unit costs of incremental in- 
 
 frastructure for new industry tend to be relatively 
 high in smaller cities, to decrease over some inter- 
 mediate range of city sizes, and to rise significantly 
 beyond some large city size. Consideration is 
 given to both the effect of city size on costs, and to 
 the combined effect of costs when composition of 
 industry varies with city size.

 Throughout the world there are approximately 1 .6 
 billion hectares of potentially arable land that is not 
 now under cultivation. Half of this uncultivated land 
 lies in the tropics where climatic and soil conditions 
 offer a high potential for crop production. If only 2 
 percent of this land could be cultivated under 
 modern technological principles, enough food 
 would be produced to feed the current population 
 of Latin America. A committee of soil scientists 
 under the auspices of the Agricultural Board of the 
 National Research Council has prepared Soils of 
 the Humid Tropics, a report that identifies research 
 priorities and offers recommendations for better 
 use of this agricultural resource. (Author)

 The widespread domestic use of solar energy 
 would significantly reduce air pollution and con- 
 serve vital resources, especially in populous devel- 
 oping regions where many families burn foraged 
 firewood, vegetable waste, or dung. However, cur- 
 rently available solar cookers, ovens, and water 
 heaters have failed to gain general acceptance 
 where they are needed most, mainly because of 
 their limited utility and poor compatibility with tradi- 
 tional iife styles. Recent studies indicate that these 
 shortcomings can be largely removed by innova- 
 tive applications of existing technology. It now ap- 
 pears possible to produce at reasonable cost a 
 universal solar kitchen that can satisfy most of the 
 usual domestic requirements for thermal energy. 
 The basic design is adaptable to a wide variety of 
 ethnic and regional domestic practices, is readily 
 transportable, and requires no special skills for in- 
 stallation or use. A conceptual approach to the 
 design of universal solar kitchens is presented, 
 with nonrigorous indications of feasibility, perform- 
 ance, producibility, and cost. Two possible em- 
 bodiments are described, with primary emphasis 
 on the collection of the solar energy and its deliv- 
 ery to a convenient point of use or storage.

 The first part of the study evaluates methods for 
 the determination of deoxygenation (biodegrada- 
 tion) rates of polluted waters in Puerto Rico. The 
 experimental part of the study was divided into 
 three phases. The first phase consisted in working 
 with the waste as it came from the particular 
 source to determine its value of K (biodegradation 
 constant) in its original state. The second and third 
 phases of the study consisted in diluting the waste 
 with natural river and sea water to simulate the 
 condition of the waste when discharged into a nat- 
 ural body of water. The degree of dilution does not 
 seem to have any significant effect. On the other 
 hand, when the dilution water is sea water the 
 value of K tends to be higher than when the waste 
 is diluted in fresh water. (Author)

 The increasing costs and complexities of solid 
 waste collection and disposal require new, more 
 sophisticated management techniques. Although 
 cost accounting represents only one part of the 
 total information system, its design, installation, 
 and utilization can represent a significant step in 
 the development of effective solid waste manage- 
 ment. The proposed system provides a guide to 
 the type and quantity of information to be collect- 
 ed, its classification, and the method of collection. 
 The system described is designed primarily for 
 small communities (< 25,000) that collect and dis- 
 pose of the solid wastes generated in their jurisdic- 
 tion. The system was specifically designed to be 
 effective for packer-truck collection and landfill dis- 
 posal operations.

 The project studied involved the possible agricul- 
 tural benefits and environmental changes that 
 would result from applying digested sewage 
 sludge liquid to field crops. In addition, criteria are 
 developed that can be used in selecting sites for 
 this method of sludge disposal. The report dis- 
 cusses the progress made after three year's work. 
 Since agronomic field studies require a minimum of 
 three years to integrate seasonal effects with 
 measured parameters, the longer the duration of a 
 field study, the greater the confidence level of the 
 results. Therefore, only one year of data-detailed 
 climatic measurements, runoff and drain water 
 analyses, and sludge applications-were collected 
 from a lysimeter facility.

 Coconuts represent a potential new indigenous 
 protein source in the coconut producing countries 
 of the world. This report provides the results of an 
 effort to generate fundamental scientific and tech- 
 nological information basic to the practical exploi- 
 tation of this protein source, and to evaluate the 
 state of the art of processing fresh coconuts for 
 food use. The evaluation is based on both a survey 
 of the literature and personal contacts with those 
 involved with research and development efforts. 
 Results of basic investigations in the following 
 areas are reported: The ultrastructure of coconut 
 meats; physical processing methods for maximum 
 extraction of fat and protein; the amount of heat 
 treatment coconut meat and meal can tolerate 
 without adverse effects on product quality; identifi- 
 cation of major classes of protein in coconut 
 meats; characteristics of each class of protein.

 overall objective the improvement of the nutritional 
 value of cereal-based food in North Africa and 
 Pakistan by supplementation and process modifi- 
 cation without decreasing the food acceptability to 
 the general consuming public in those areas. Re- 
 search effort focused on the use of three protein 
 sources: soy flour, chick-pea flour, and horse bean 
 flour. These were used for food fortification. Em- 
 phasis was given to the nutritional and organolep- 
 tic evaluations of chapatis, couscous, and Moroc- 
 can bread fortified with the high protein flours.

 plicity appropriate to the socio-economic require- 
 ments of relatively small population centers in 
 countries such as the Philippines. Flavor, accept- 
 ability, economy, and nutritional value were of pri-

 ducted in the following areas: Development of a 
 simple procedure for manufacture of a bland soy 
 beverage and other products that could be easily 
 produced without the use of elaborate and expen- 
 sive equipment; introduction of the soy beverage 
 to selected groups of Philippine school children; 
 engineering studies on unit operations in soy prod- 
 uct manufacturing; nutritional evaluation of the 
 products and the nutritional effects of the unit 
 processes involved; basic laboratory research on 
 physical and chemical qualities of soy products 
 and components to lay a scientific basis for im- 
 provement of the products and unit processes in- 
 volved in their manufacture.

 A review is presented of research to improve the 
 nutritional value of cereal based foods in North 
 Africa and Pakistan by supplementation and proc- 
 ess modification without decreasing the food ac- 
 ceptability to the consumers in those areas. The 
 foods considered were protein fortified wheat 
 based bread, chapatis, and couscous using soy 
 flour, chickpea flour, and broadbean flour. The for- 
 tified foods met the nutritive guidelines established 
 by the project and prove acceptable to small con- 
 sumer panels. Many other protein resource materi- 
 als were evaluated. A system of developing and 
 evaluating protein fortified foods was evolved.

 A series of studies has been undertaken to deter- 
 mine the extent to which the concentration of es- 
 sential amino acids in dried milk can be extended 
 by the addition of non-specific nitrogen without in- 
 fluencing the nutritional value of the protein. The 
 results of the studies, which were conducted in 
 children and young men, are summarized in this 
 report. The non-specific nitrogen source used was 
 a mixture of glycine and diammonium citrate. The 
 results support the conclusion that at any time that 
 it is necessary to extend the 'protein' content of 
 milk supplies for the supplementary feeding of 
 population groups, inexpensive non-specific nitro- 
 gen sources may be used to an extent of at least 
 10% without impairing the ability of the milk to 
 meet any normal protein needs.

 The effectiveness of a subsurface asphalt mois- 
 ture barrier in increasing yields of vegetable crops 
 grown on loamy sand soils was investigated. Six 
 vegetable crops were grown under conditions of 
 irrigation and no irrigation with and without a bar- 
 rier. Average yield increases of all crops over the 
 barrier without irrigation were 46%, 58% and 55% 
 for 1967, 1968 and 1969 respectively. With irriga- 
 tion, yield increases were 35%, 16% and 30% for 
 1967, 1968 and 1969. Yield increases were due to 
 a combination of increased water retention and a 
 reduction in nitrate leaching due to excessive rain- 
 fall. The barrier increased the water holding capac- 
 ity of the soil in top 2 feet by approximately 1 .25 
 inches or an additional 70% in available water. In 
 laboratory leaching studies with simulated barriers 
 using high rates of nitrogen, 2 1/2 times as much 
 nitrate remained in the top 2 feet of the soil com- 
 pared to no barrier with a 5 inch application of 
 water. A summary of yields by crop and graphs of 
 the movement of nitrate, ammonium and potas- 
 sium are included. The asphalt moisture barrier 
 has proven to be an effective production practice 
 with sandy soils where irrigation is not feasible.

 common clays were formed by stiff-mud extrusion 
 and fired to the temperature required to produce a 
 body having 6-7 percent absorption. Substitution 
 of glass for one-half the clay in a red body reduced 
 the firing temperature 500F, making a 30 percent 
 increase in production possible; in a tan body the 
 firing temperature was reduced 400F making a 
 23.3 percent increase in production possible.

 A literature survey was made to gather information 
 for defining the quantity and characteristics of non- 
 point water pollution sources from rural areas. 
 Major constituents of such pollution include fertiliz- 
 ers, pesticides, erosion and sediment, and animal 
 wastes. Studies showed that nitrogen and phos- 
 phorus from surface runoff and subsurface drain- 
 age are often greater in concentration than that 
 from sewage effluents. Pesticides are only slightly 
 soluble in water, and about 5 percent of that ap- 
 plied may enter waterways through surface runoff 
 and erosion. With the exception of sediment trans- 
 port, farm animal wastes can be the most serious 
 sources of pollution from farm lands. Control tech- 
 niques are discussed.

 Surveys have shown that many small communities 
 do not follow sanitary refuse practices. There are 
 many reasons why these communities have not 
 taken steps to protect the health and welfare of 
 their citizens. Predominant among the basic 
 causes, however, is the belief that adequate serv- 
 ice is too expensive, and a lack of information on 
 how to establish and operate a satisfactory 
 system. It has been clearly demonstrated many 
 times, that urban fly control and rodent control 
 must be based upon adequate storage, collection, 
 and disposal of community wastes. A practical 
 refuse control program is within the means of any 
 community. This publication proposes to describe 
 certain factors which needs to be considered in es- 
 tablishing sanitary refuse practices, and to present 
 representative operational and cost data in such 
 manner that they may be interpreted to meet local 
 conditions.

 Variations inherent in the generation of solid 
 wastes make it extremely difficult to predict quanti- 
 ties that can be expected from a dwelling within a 
 residential neighborhood. Some possibly influenc- 
 ing factors are climate, season, socioeconomic 
 level, and dweller density. The objective of the 
 study was to examine the quantities and critical 
 factors involved in the generation of solid wastes 
 in low-income residential neighborhoods. The re- 
 sults are presented in order that a better under- 
 standing of waste quantities and characteristics 
 may be obtained. (Author)

 A number of approaches have been taken in at- 
 tempting to evaluate the important factors which 
 control the rate of methane fermentation in anaer- 
 obic digestion. The ultimate goal of the research 
 has been to determine the chemical, physical, and 
 biochemical requirements which will enable the 
 methane fermentation to proceed at rates on the 
 order of one magnitude greater that commonly ob- 
 served in conventional anaerobic digestion. A con- 
 siderably detailed study was conducted to assay 
 the methane fermentation stimulation potential of 
 six compounds which had shown promise in a pre- 
 vious study conducted by the principal investiga- 
 tor. Next, a series of studies was designed to 
 evaluate the influence of many physical and 
 chemical factors involved in digestion. Following 
 this, the methane fermentation requirements for 
 trace organics, such as vitamins and amino acids 
 was studied. Combinations of individual amino 
 acids and vitamins as well as mixtures, e.g. case in 
 hydrolyzate (enzymatic), yeast extract, and forti- 
 fied vitamin B complex, were assayed for their 
 stimulation potential. The surface charge on the 
 microorganisms was altered by inorganic and or- 
 ganic coagulating agents while observing the ace- 
 tate utilization rate.

 The purpose of the Workshop was to formulate 
 recommendations on how to utilize the natural re- 
 sources of Indonesia in a manner consistent with 
 the needs and rising expectations of a growing 
 population. Specific objectives were: (1) to suggest 
 policies and procedures for strengthening the inte- 
 grated planning and utilization of natural re- 
 sources; (2) to suggest scientific and technological 
 inputs; and (3) to provide a form for a coordinated 
 and constructive exchange of views by key scien-

 The population of the Republic of Korea is expect- 
 ed to exceed 35 million by 1976, a gain of about 
 13% over the 1969 figure. In the same period, the 
 Gross National Product in real terms is projected 
 to increase more than 80%, with income per capita 
 showing a gain of about 78%. This population and 
 income growth will generate a rapid rise in the 
 demand for food, requiring an expansion of 25% to 
 30% in the total supply of farm products. This 
 report contains a series of recommendations con- 
 cerning steps that may be taken to effect this ex- 
 pansion in the areas of agricultural production and 
 marketing. Consideration is given to the general 
 improvement of long-range projections, livestock 
 improvement plans, problems relating to grains, 
 evaluation of marketing needs, and proposed reor- 
 ganization for economic research. (Author)

 The role of deflection beam surveys in the evalua- 
 tion of flexible pavements is discussed. Deflection 
 studies in Malaysia and Zambia are described from 
 which a suitable survey method for use on tropical 
 roads, for the purpose of designing strengthening 
 overlays or pavement reconstruction, has been de- 
 veloped. Testing at 100m intervals in both wheel- 
 tracks is recommended with provision for a higher 
 density of testing if the road deflection is variable, if 
 the road surface has areas of visible distress, or if 
 there are occasional very high deflection values. 
 Deflection values of roads tend to exhibit skewed 
 distributions but it is concluded that this is not nec- 
 essarily a significant factor from the point of view 
 of survey analysis for practical overlay design.

 Water harvesting is a potential source of water for 
 arid and semi-arid lands. The objectives were to 
 determine combinations of land surface treat- 
 ments and land forming which result in efficient but 
 inexpensive water harvesting catchments and to 
 determine the optimum shape of catchments. In 
 laboratory studies with inexpensive materials, 
 
 crude oils exhibited the best sealing properties. 
 However, by six months after application, 750 gal 
 per ac of crude oil has no apparent effect on runoff 
 from field plots. Water harvesting catchments con- 
 structed by grading the soil to form V-shaped val- 
 leys and then compacting the surface yielded 
 runoff equal to 31 to 43 percent of all precipitation. 
 After rains, sand blown from such catchments may 
 damage tender downwind vegetation. Some water 
 erosion occurred, but, after two years, the basic 
 shape and the performance of the catchments had 
 not been damaged by erosion. Chemical weed 
 control is recommended. (Author Modified Ab-

 The problem examined in this study is the deriva- 
 tion of a generalized crop-fertilizer production 
 function describing the response relation between 
 measured soil characteristics, applied nutrients, 
 weather and crop yield. It is hypothesized the func- 
 tion can be used to generate specific fertilizer rec- 
 ommendations to farmers based on soil analysis. 
 The data come from potato-fertilizer experiments 
 conducted on 65 farm locations over a seven year 
 period in the Sierra Region of Peru. A quadratic 
 model was chosen as the most appropriate form to 
 describe the response relationships in these data.

 The authors discuss major credit distribution prob-

 affect the problem of extending credit to small

 policies might substantially increase the flow of 
 credit to small farmers through regular banking 
 channels. Information from Brazil is used to illus- 
 trate the contention. The following topics are con- 
 sidered: background on agricultural credit in Brazil;

 results from credit and interest rate policies; rea- 
 sons for loan concentrations; conclusions; and 
 policy recommendations. (Author Modified Ab-

 The author states that agricultural production 
 growth of most of the developing countries in the 
 last 3-4 years has very considerably decreased 
 their dependence on imports, especially food 
 grains. This shift from heavy dependence on im- 
 ports to fast-increasing internal surpluses has cre- 
 ated the need for new government regulations 
 governing the control and operation of markets so 
 that the domestic market becomes fully respon- 
 sive to the production changes and at the same 
 time keeps up the incentives for higher and better 
 production. (Author)

 In order to evaluate farmers' response to the new 
 rice and bajra varieties, the Indian Institute of Man- 
 agement at Ahmedabad undertook an intensive 
 study of two districts-Mehsana District in Gujarat 
 for a study of hybrid bajra, and Thanjavur District in 
 Tamil Nadu, for a study of ADT-27, a new high 
 yielding rice variety. In each district, use of inputs, 
 yields and prices were collected from approxi- 
 mately 60 farmers who had adopted the new varie- 
 ties of seed on some part of their acreage, and 
 approximately 40 who had grown only the tradi- 
 tional varieties. A regression framework is used to 
 examine factors affecting the extent of adoption of 
 ADT-27 in Thanjavur. This is supplemented by 
 comparative production function analysis of ADT- 
 27 and traditional rice varieties. Hybrid and local 
 bajra are compared, again with production function 
 analysis. Finally, an assessment is made of ADT- 
 27 and hybrid bajra as to their suitability for the 
 small farmer. (Author Modified Abstract)

 It is the purpose of this study to review and sum- 
 marize the existing knowledge and literature on or- 
 ganic phosphorus in highly weathered soils of the 
 tropics. This review includes many references 
 which are concerned primarily with organic phos- 
 phorus as present in soils of temperate regions. 
 This is included to serve as a starting point for in- 
 vestigations in tropical areas. The three major 
 topics covered are: identification and determina- 
 tion of specific forms of organic phosphorus; min- 
 eralization of organic phosphorus; and determina- 
 tion of total organic phosphorus. Less attention is 
 given to microbiological aspects of the problem. 
 Specifically, the author discusses and reviews the 
 following topics: inositol phosphates; phospholi- 
 pids; nucleic acids; correlation with organic nitro-

 In the humid tropics, as in temperate areas, sus- 
 tained high production of nonleguminous crops 
 can be accomplished only by the addition of N to 
 the soil. Two years ago, field experiments were 
 started in Puerto Rico to determine the most effi- 
 cient means of supplying N fertilizer to non-legu- 
 minous crops. The author discusses the following 
 topics in this research study: the need for and use 
 of N fertilizers; sources of fertilizer N; placement 
 and time of application of fertilizer N; fertilizer N 
 recovery; N-losses; N03 retention; soil test meth- 
 ods; fertility maintenance; nitrogen fertilization ex- 
 periments in Puerto Rico; and conclusions. The 
 most salient findings of the N fertilization experi- 
 ments with corn and sorghum are given. (Author

 The paper summarizes the results of a study in 
 southern Brazil which was focused at determining 
 the characteristics of farmers who received addi- 
 tional bank credit during the period 1 965 to 1 969. 
 Information is also presented on changes in use of 
 non-bank credit among farmers over the same 
 
 period. Data were drawn from two sample surveys 
 covering farm operation in 1 965 and 1 969 for 289 
 farms in southern Brazil. All of the units had 124 
 acres or less. Principle economic activities on the 
 farms included various mixed enterprises of corn, 
 beans, rice, wheat, hogs and dairy. Inducing banks 
 to loan in a more socially efficient manner appears 
 to be a major challenge. (Author Modified Ab-

 The Instiute recognizes the urgent need for suit- 
 able farm machines for tropical agriculture and the 
 catalytic role that machinery design and develop- 
 ment activities can play in the establishment of an 
 indigenous farm equipment manufacturing industry 
 in the South and South-East Asian region. The 
 IRRI program of machinery development is there- 
 fore sharply focused towards providing designs of 
 agricultural machines for the production and proc- 
 essing of rice with two major objectives in mind. 
 One, the machines must meet the requirements of 
 the 2-to 1 0-hectare farmers who can neither afford 
 to use imported mechanization technology nor 
 work efficiently with traditional methods. Two, the 
 machinery designs must use to a maximum extent, 
 locally available manufacturing methods, materi- 
 als, labor and other resources of the region.

 Much of the effort directed at improving the diets of 
 needy people is centered on the improvement of 
 the protein content and quality of cereals by the 
 addition of protein-rich foods, protein concen-

 of wheat and soy flours makes much sense as the 
 second should correct the lysine deficiency of the 
 first. Such a mixture is now being made available 
 by our government in its international programs as

 in metal storage facilities for bagged grains: (1) 
 adequate ventilation (2) white paint used to paint 
 the exterior, (3) do not stack grain bags against the 
 walls, and (4) cover the grain pile with a plastic

 The research paper discusses field research in 
 Thailand on certain economic aspects of new rice 
 technology, particularly the new high yielding rice 
 varieties and associated inputs. The actual loca- 
 tion of the study area was in Suphan Buri Province, 
 some 1 00 kilometers northwest of Bangkok, Thai- 
 land. A total of 153 rural households in six villages 
 cooperated in the study. Forty of the rice farms 
 were located in a deep water, broadcasted area 
 where floating rice varieties are grown. The re- 
 maining 93 rice-farms were in a transplanted rice 
 area where many farmers were growing the new 
 high yielding rice varieties. The authors provide 
 summary tables on the following topics: table of 
 farms; planted area and varieties grown; farmers 
 growing new varieties; area and variety planted for 
 the 1970 and 1971 seasons. They include sum- 
 mary discussions of high yielding varieties other 
 new rice technology, research and costs of pro- 
 duction. (Author Modified Abstract)

 The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the vari- 
 etal response to specific cultural practices as ex- 
 amples of the kind of information needed for opti- 
 mizing yields in each rice growing area in Latin 
 American countries. Time of planting in relation to 
 weather patterns is discussed for upland rice and 
 irrigated rice. Planting systems, seed density and 
 spacing are explained for upland rice systems, 
 direct seeded-irrigated systems, and transplanted 
 systems. Nitrogen response and response to other 
 nutrients are described under rice fertilization. 
 Weed control and harvest timing are included as 
 important cultural practices. Examples of cultural 
 practices interactions, total production costs and 
 revenues and the effects of nitrogen levels are 
 provided under economic considerations. The 
 author concludes that the possibility of increasing 
 rice yields throughout the different cropping sys- 
 tems in Latin America seem excellent if proper 
 agronomic practices are adopted. (Author)

 The development of a simple, inexpensive grain 
 storage unit and storage method which can be 
 used at farm and local levels in humid areas in 
 order to preserve the quality of grain is discussed. 
 Losses result from inadequate facilities and im- 
 proper handling of food grains. Efforts are devoted

 The major objectives of the contract continue to be 
 the design, development, testing and extension of 
 agricultural machinery for use by small-and 
 medium-scale rice producers and processors in 
 the tropics. Response from manufacturers now 
 producing and those contemplating production of 
 the 4-6 hp power tiller has been encouraging. Two 
 manufacturers are now building a total of 200 
 power tillers a month in the Philippines. Evaluation 
 of various machine concepts for the application of 
 non-selective herbicides in rice and upland crops 
 was initiated. The design of the axial-flow thresher 
 neared completion. High output, multicrop use, 
 simplicity in design, and ease of local manufacture 
 should make it widely acceptable in most Asian 
 countries. The second prototype of the PTO 
 thresher is approaching completion. Following 
 final testing and evaluation, it will be released to 
 manufacturers for production. Simple lifting-finger 
 mechanisms for harvesting lodged crops were in- 
 stalled on the stripper harvester. Field trials with 
 the stripper harvester indicate that grain losses 
 with the field machine have been reduced to 6 per- 
 cent. Additional modifications should further 
 reduce these losses. (Author)

 The focus of the research paper is on the capital 
 formation process on Brazilian farms, with special 
 emphasis on the role of credit and technology in 
 bringing about rapid changes in agricultural pro- 
 duction and/or productivity. An agricultural survey 
 
 was made of 383 farms in the state of Sao Paulo, 
 Brazil, in 1970 in order to obtain the necessary 
 farm level data. Several homogenous groups were 
 identified which reflected farm characteristics of 
 size, type, technology, tenure, market orientation, 
 management level and mechanization. Analyses 
 were made of farm organization, income, con- 
 sumption, savings, investment and other distin- 
 guishing characteristics to show the production- 
 income-growth process for each group. (Author

 Central America was selected as the site for a re- 
 search station because the malaria programs of 
 the region had been facing numerous problems. 
 Among the first work initiated by CAMRS were in- 
 tensive studies on the ecology of the malaria vec- 
 tors. The information from these continuing studies 
 on activity patterns, breeding cycles and habitats, 
 and vector associations with man has guided the 
 selection and timing of antimosquito activities in- 
 cluding dry-season larviciding of river habitats, 
 water-management practices in coastal estuaries, 
 exterior spraying of nouses, ULV spraying, and re- 
 lease of sterile male mosquitoes. The results of a 
 pyrimethamine-primaquine mass distribution field 
 trial enabled CAMRS to recommend against an ex- 
 pensive change-over of drugs and, in addition, 
 yielded information on the reasons for the low ac- 
 ceptance in mass drug distribution programs.

 The purpose of this survey was to assess the value 
 of Japan's aquacultural methods in terms of direct 
 or indirect application in other countries, and to 
 evaluate present and future status of aquacultures 
 in Japan. The aquacultures discussed are: Ayu, 
 Japanese eel, Yellowtail, Japanese oyster, and the 
 Japanese Kuruma shrimp. Japan is faced with seri- 
 ous problems in most of its aquacultures. Only few 
 of the methods of culture developed can be ap- 
 plied in other countries. If present methods are 
 continued, many cultures will suffer limited growth 
 and some may decline. The most serious problem 
 and the ultimate limiting factor is the cost of pro- 
 duction. Feed and labor are the two primary cost 
 items of all cultures. Pollution is another problem. 
 Another problem is having to depend on natural 
 populations for young animals for stocking. A po- 
 tential disease problem results from the feeding of 
 uncooked trash fish also, and this particular prob- 
 lem has manifested itself in the yellowtail culture. 
 Various stocking programs and ways to artificially 
 reproduce fish stocks are discussed. (Author Modi-

 Many countries are considering alternative meth- 
 ods for increasing the output of fertilizers and fertil- 
 izer intermediates. Numerous studies have been 
 made for various countries surveying alternative 
 production schemes which could be utilized. The 
 
 report gives details of granulation process based 
 on the ammoniation of superphosphates with am- 
 monia-urea solution in a rotary-type drum granula- 
 tor. Granulation is a process whereby rounded or 
 spherical particles are produced through a fusion, 
 solution, crystallization, or cementing process be- 
 tween various materials. To obtain spherical parti- 
 cles, it is necessary to impart a rolling-type action 
 to nuclei; these nuclei serve as a base for building 
 larger particles which grow to product size. Infor- 
 mation for this report is based on actual experi- 
 ence during startup and operation of a plant in 
 Porto Alegre, Brazil. The ammoniation-granulation

 Nitrogen use in modern agriculture has increased 
 greatly with the growth of population and in turn 
 the need for increased food production. Of all the 
 soil elements essential for plant growth, nitrogen is 
 the most likely to limit crop growth. Attention is fo- 
 cussed on some of the principles affecting nitro- 
 gen availability and use which provide for maxi- 
 mum efficiency in the production of cereal crops. In 
 forecasting fertilizer nitrogen needs, several use 
 factors are collectively evaluated. Crop require- 
 ments are determined first. The kind of crop, ex- 
 pected yield, amount of nitrogen absorbed and 
 used by the plants at the projected yield level. Ex- 
 pected yield levels depend mostly on soil proper- 
 ties and climatic factors. The amount of nitrogen 
 expected from the soil and natural resources are 
 assessed through mineralization, biological fix- 
 ation, and additions from rainfall. An evaluation of 
 all these processes are obtained by measuring the 
 yield of a crop when no nitrogen fertilizer has been 
 applied. (Author Modified Abstract)

 There is a shortage of documented information on 
 Colombia's small scale industry. An approach uti- 
 lized here focuses on, (1) the historical develop- 
 ment (with emphasis on the last 20 years) of small 
 scale production, (2) management performance in 
 terms of the actual and potential efficiency with 
 which converts resources into output, (3) the 
 growth tendencies of plants and firms over a 
 period of time according to their sizes, (4) the rela- 
 tive factor productivity compared to larger industry, 
 and (5) possible strategies for the success of this 
 form of production. The data indicate that small 
 and medium plants are on somewhat higher 
 output/capital ratios than larger ones. (Author

 Statistics show that wheat production varies widely 
 even in areas of the same climatic conditions. Re- 
 search conducted by National Wheat Improve- 
 ment Center provides necessary information and 
 production sources for optimum wheat production 
 in the shortest possible time. It is observed that 
 moisture conservation in soil (fallow system) with 
 other improved agronomic practices can produce 
 the optimum yield capacity. An effective fallow 
 system involves storing water when it comes as 
 rain or snow and minimizing losses prior to planting 
 the crop. Research and training programs are de- 
 signed to adapt improved technology to local con- 
 ditions. Also presented is an analysis of the ap- 
 proach taken to facilitate the transfer of technol- 
 ogy to local conditions in Turkey. (Author Modified

 In an investigation of the extent to which predictive 
 soil property relationships can be relied upon in 
 characterizing soils of the tropics classified at the 
 reconnaissance level, 9 to 15 soil properties, of 
 370 horizons, from 84 Puerto Rican profiles, were 
 studied by correlation and multiple linear regres- 
 sion. The soils represented six orders of the new 
 U.S. Soil Taxonomy (7th Approximation): Vertisols, 
 Mollisols, Alfisols, Inseptisols, Ultisols, and Oxi- 
 sols. Multiple regression equations were formed 
 from the data of each order, with 15-bar moisture 
 content, CEC, organic carbon, extractable iron, 
 and base saturation as dependent variables. The 
 results indicate that, although it is possible to elimi- 
 nate certain properties from tropical soil data ac- 
 quisition and still adequately characterize the soil, 
 the specific properties that can be successfully 
 eliminated depend on the soil order. (Author)

 The study explores the relationship that exists be- 
 tween adoption of the new seed varieties and size 
 of farm for the small farmer in India. In this analysis 
 a farmer is defined to have 'adopted' if he has put 
 any part of his acreage under the new varieties. 
 Tables are provided summarizing the results of the 
 linear regression between proportion of farmers 
 adopting the farm size for 70 cases. This analysis 
 has been largely oriented to the adoption problems 
 of the small farmer. Particular in the rice areas, 
 among adopting farmers, the larger farmers seem 
 to adopt on a smaller proportion of their acreage 
 than the smaller farmers. The authors also discuss 
 tenancy, irrigation, credit and uncertainty as fac- 
 tors affecting adoption. (Author Modified Abstract)

 A formal theoretical model is presented, with which 
 the equilibrium allocation of the labor force be- 
 tween labor markets is analyzed. Following the 
 model of Harris and Todaro, the focus is on the 
 voluntary movement of workers between labor 
 markets as the equilibrating force, instead of the 
 more conventional mechanism of wage adjust- 
 ment. Four additional factors are considered: a 
 more generalized account of the process of search 
 for urban jobs; favoring of educated workers over 
 uneducated workers by employers in hiring; the 
 possibility of unemployment in the so-called 'murky 
 sector'; and recognition of labor turnover in a multi- 
 period framework. Results are compared with pre- 
 dictions by Harris and Todaro. Urban unemploy- 
 ment rates were found to be considerably lower 
 than predicted by the Harris-Todaro model. The 
 theory of quantity adjustment being the equilibrat- 
 ing mechanism in labor markets is considered. Re- 
 sults presented demonstrate that the resulting 
 framework gives predictions that are closer to 
 actual experience than the Harris-Todaro model.

 The research included two principal objectives: (1) 
 develop a theoretical planning model for deciding 
 water supply timing and scale in small communi- 
 ties of developing countries; (2) initiate field stud- 
 ies to obtain data on the parameters of the model 
 to make it operational. The work of model develop- 
 ment had to focus on several communities instead 
 of only one. Additionally, time in the model had to 
 be made discrete because budgets are imposed at 
 fixed points in time. Finally, the model had to in- 
 clude the considerations of Manne's model perti- 
 
 nent to developing countries: economies of scale, 
 water supply benefits, increasing demand, the dis- 
 count rate, etc. While the first research objective is 
 theoretical, the second is pri marily applied. It was 
 proposed to obtain at least preliminary information 
 on water demand patterns in small commun ities, 
 costs of water system construction, the economies 
 of scale of water systems abroad, an by imputing, 
 the benefits of publicly supplied water. All of the 
 field data were obtained from Central America.

 An economic development report reviews the ana- 
 lytics of share tenancy for land reform and other 
 aspects of agricultural policy in the developing na- 
 tions. Section 1 discusses the comparative statics 
 of resource allocation under share-cropping, fixed 
 rent tenancy, and capitalist production using wage 
 labor. The implications of production uncertainty 
 are treated in section 2 and are related to the con- 
 clusions of the previous section. Production uncer- 
 tainty is shown to modify the comparative static 
 conclusions on resource allocation and to provide 
 an explanation for the existence of share-cropping 
 despite its alleged inefficiency. (Author)

 The 'green-revolution' has come to Asia, but 
 Indian workers have nothing to fear from technol- 
 ogy. This study finds increased use of modern pur- 
 chased imputs generates an increase in the 
 amount of labor employed per farm. The various 
 inputs investigated are: (1) farm size, (2) irrigation 
 expenses, (3) investment in farm machinery, (4) 
 bullock labor, (5) expenses for seed and fertilizer, 
 (6) percentage of high-yield varieties used, (7) 
 price of the dependent variable, and (8) the 
 amount of human labor employed other than that 
 included in the dependent variables. These factors 
 were applied to Ferozepur and Thanjavur in the 
 States of Punjab and Tamil Nadu, respectively, be- 
 cause of their similarity to other regions in India.

 A sludge disposal process consisting of modified

 thaw technique utilizing natural refrigeration was 
 evaluated. The purpose of freeze-thawing of 
 sewage sludge is principally to condition the 
 sludge such that it is readily dewaterable and, sub- 
 sequently, results in a reduced volume of solids to 
 be further processed. The study consisted of three 
 separate evaluations using three model drying 
 beds for each respective run. Two of the beds 
 were studied at sludge depths of six inches, and 
 the third bed was evaluated at an eighteen-inch 
 sludge depth. Settled activated sludge for place- 
 ment on the model beds was obtained from the 
 sedimentation tank of a local activated sludge 
 plant.

 Treatment of municipal, industrial, and agricultural 
 wastes employing stabilization ponds or lagoons 
 has found increasing application within the past 20 
 or 30 years. Regardless of whether the lagoon is 
 an oxidation pond, an anaerobic cell followed by 
 an aerobic polishing pond, or a facultative lagoon, 
 the effluent from each facility is likely to contain a 
 significant concentration of algae. With the adop- 
 tion of wastewater effluent standards by water pol- 
 lution abatement agencies, particularly with re- 
 spect to suspended solids and biochemical 
 oxygen demand, it becomes imperative either to 
 design the oxidation pond facilities on a total 
 wastewater retention basis or to provide means for 
 separating the algae from pond effluents and dis- 
 posing of the harvested residue. This report sum- 
 marizes the investigations of other research work- 
 ers concerning methods of harvesting algae and 
 disposing of that harvest, and should be helpful to 
 consulting engineers and stream pollution abate- 
 ment agencies. Since several of the separation 
 techniques employed in these investigations are 
 physiochemical processes, a brief introduction to 
 the algal cell wall characteristics is presented 
 before discussing the algal removal methods.

 state of the art of ferrocement as an engineering 
 material; (2) evaluating the principal areas of appli- 
 cation on both land and water; and (3) developing 
 specific recommendations for promoting the use of 
 ferrocement in a logical, effective manner. Specific 
 areas covered in the report include: ferrocement 
 for boatbuilding; for food-storage facilities; for 
 food-processing equipment; for low-cost roofing; 
 and materials technology. Appendicies discuss 
 Ferrocement boatbuilding in a Chinese commune; 
 Ferrocement food storage in Thailand; Ferroce- 
 ment-lined underground grain silos in Ethiopia; and 
 New Zealand ferrocement tanks and utility build- 
 ings.

 The need for protein feed and the need to dispose 
 of waste cellulose are problems being studied to 
 develop a feasible method for the direct conver- 
 sion of cellulosic wastes to microbial protein-a 
 single cell protein to be used as an animal feed 
 supplement. This report presents data on the proc- 
 ess and summarizes research in large-scale pro- 
 duction. The economics and techniques of the 
 conversion process are compared with work done 
 by petroleum companies on the fermentation of 
 hydrocarbons. Controlling variables used in the 
 process are defined and significant goals neces- 
 sary to achieve success in the field are described. 
 The research deals mainly with the alkali treatment 
 and fermentation parts of the process. Different 
 micro-organisms from which single cell protein can 
 be produced are given. Research in the areas of 
 cell flocculation, flotation, or hyperfiltration are rec- 
 ommended to improve the most costly single step 
 of the process-drying the cells. Methods of de- 
 creasing the degree of crystallinity are also includ- 
 ed. The practicality of complete acid hydrolysis of 
 cellulose to a soluble substrate for conversion to 
 yeast protein and partial acid hydrolysis of the cel- 
 lulose followed by microbial consumption is dis- 
 cussed. An economic analysis is given of the po- 
 tential markets and the competitive cost with other 
 proteins. (Modified author abstract)

 As part of studies to determine how living organ- 
 isms may be used to catabolize poultry manure, 
 larvae of house flies (Musca domestica) were used 
 to process poultry manure, with the pupae being 
 used as a feed supplement. Temperature and rela- 
 tive humidity conditions were determined to pro- 
 duce an optimum yield of dry pupae. Three feeding 
 trials were conducted to evaluate fly pupae and ca- 
 tabolized poultry manure residue as protein 
 sources for growing chickens. White Leghorn 
 chicks, White Plymouth Rock chicks, and New 
 Hampshire and Indian River broiler chicks were fed 
 the various diets and differences in body weight 
 and feed conversion were recorded. The results in- 
 dicated that fly pupae have potential as a protein 
 supplement in chick starter and broiler diets; the 
 protein quality was found to be similar to that of 
 meat and bone meal or fish meal, and superior to 
 soybean oil meal.

 The Caldwell Lace Leather Co. of Auburn, Ken-

 but some chrome and vegetable tanning, received 
 a demonstration grant to investigate and demon- 
 strate methods of treating tannery wastes for dis- 
 charge to a small stream. A research contract with 
 Vanderbilt University produced findings which 
 have previously been reported and are reviewed 
 herein. A modified completely-mixed activated 
 sludge plant was constructed, along with facilities 
 to handle specific problem wastes. After it had 
 been operating for a year, an EPA survey team 
 conducted a study which showed that the plant 
 was performing as predicted by the research 
 phase, except for solids carryover from the sec- 
 ondary clarifier due to mechanical problems. After 
 the problems were corrected, the plant began pro- 
 ducing an effluent which more than met expecta- 
 tions, removing 97% of the suspended solids and 
 95% of the BOD. The report reviews the charac- 
 teristics of the wastes and discusses the treatment 
 process.

 The problem of bark waste that is generated by the 
 forest products industry in the United States has 
 become increasingly important. The major overall 
 goal of the work covered in this report was to use 
 physical and chemical sciences in coordinated 
 studies to promote economic uses of bark in order 
 to relieve pollution created by present methods of 
 disposal. Physical utilization research included: in- 
 vestigating the preparation of bark pellets from 
 bark; determining the components responsible for 
 'self-bonding' of bark; and investigating potential 
 products from or applications of bark wastes ob- 
 tained from production sources. Chemical utiliza- 
 tion research included: preparing, for chemical 
 studies, natural bark, bark that had been ammon- 
 iated to contain 4 percent nitrogen, and bark that 
 had been molded into pellets and then broken 
 down into small particles; and investigating the 
 chemical composition of each type of bark pre- 
 pared.

 Processed residential refuse from four municipal 
 composting plants was evaluated as a source of 
 plant nutrients and as a soil amendment. Indicator 
 plants were turnip, pearl millet, cranberry beans, 
 tomato, and sorghum. Three of the composts used 
 were high in carbon and low in nitrogen, which re- 
 sulted in delayed nitrification accompanied by poor 
 plant growth. Total soluble salts in those composts 
 were relatively high and could affect seed germina- 
 tion. Extracts of compost (160 g/500ml H20) 
 greatly reduced germination in radish and turnip 
 seed, and extracts from 320 g compost/500ml 
 H20 reduced germination to in turnip and radish 
 seed and to about 40 percent in oat and millet 
 seed. After a period of time in the soil, compost 
 applications above 32 metric tons/ha increased 
 plant yields and improved soil cation exchange ca- 
 pacity and water-holding capacity. In laboratory 
 studies with compost incorporated at various 
 levels in Arredondo sand, almost no nitrification 
 occurred. When mixed with cow manure in equal 
 parts, compost effectively curtailed nitrification in 
 the cow-manure almost 100 percent. (Modified

 different intergovernmental approaches to water 
 quality management planning and a significant 
 amount of program activity by the four Federal 
 agencies involved. They also presented sufficient 
 commonality to provide valid general conclusions.

 acid analyses, by growth of rats and calculations of 
 PER using diets containing the grains, unsupple- 
 mented or supplemented with lysine, tryptophan, 
 or four protein concentrates. Ragi protein was 
 highest in essential amino acids (EAA) except leu- 
 cine, and compared to the FAO reference pattern, 
 no amino acid in Ragi was limiting except lysine 
 was marginal. Bajra protein was deficient in lysine; 
 sorghum and maize were deficient in three or more 
 amino acids. On several protein-quality scores, 
 Ragi ranked first and Bajra second; both ranked 
 considerably higher than sorghum or maize. 
 Among unsupplemented diets, Bajra caused great- 
 est weight gain in rats and had the highest PER. 
 Supplementing Bajra and Ragi diets with lysine in- 
 creased both gains and PER. Lysine improved sor- 
 ghum and tryptophan improved maize diets; to- 
 gether lysine and tryptophan markedly improved 
 both diets. Fish protein concentrate was the most 
 effective supplement with sorghum and Ragi, dried 
 milk with maize, and isolated soybean protein with 
 Bajra.

 For the Review, AID was able during the period 
 June 1972 thru January 1973 to assemble a large 
 number of comparable case studies drawn from 
 different parts of the world, to analyze them, and to 
 report on the lessons of experience. The research 
 focused on three principal themes: The role of in- 
 stitutional credit in small farmer development; the 
 major institutional alternatives for delivering small 
 farmer credit; and certain policy issues, such as in- 
 terest rates, that appear to be critical to the suc- 
 cess of these programs. The tentative conclusions 
 drawn from the research were refined during a 
 series of ten field workshops in the spring of 1973 
 and are presented in summary form in this volume. 
 The entire evaluation is limited by the fact that 
 credit is only one of the factors in a small farmer 
 development strategy, and, though the study found 
 a handle on the broader subject, it cannot, in itself, 
 recommend an overall solution to the small farmer 
 problems.

 The agricultural production activities of spontane- 
 ous settlers is described in detail, with special 
 focus upon the determinants of family income and 
 investment and rate of capital formation. The co- 
 operative Riobambenos del Rio Chilimpe was se- 
 lected for extensive study. Production processes 
 and family income structure was analyzed for 22 
 farmers for calendar year 1 967. The most impor- 
 tant sources of income for the majority of farmers 
 were, in order: crop sales, livestock sales, and 
 timber sales. 59% of family receipts for the aver- 
 age farmer were provided by crop sales. The most 
 important crop was plantain. Important develop- 
 mental benefits of land settlement in Santo Domin- 
 go de Los Colorados include: economic integra- 
 tion, redistribution of income, and creation of a 
 modern agricultural sector.

 The United States Agency for International Devel- 
 opment has been providing assistance to the Gov- 
 ernment of Brazil in freshwater fisheries since 
 1966. The project goal established for this assist- 
 ance is to create a freshwater fisheries group ca- 
 pable of planning and conducting practical re- 
 search programs in the fields of food technology, 
 fish culture, and fisheries biology. The purpose is 
 to increase fish production in Northeast Brazil 
 through proper management of the freshwater 
 fisheries, improvement of fish processing meth- 
 ods, and the introduction of intensive fishculture 
 techniques. Once these purposes are achieved, 
 general well-being of the people can be improved 
 by increasing the amount of protein available for 
 human consumption and by creating opportunities 
 for capital investment. This report summarizes and 
 evaluates USAID assistance in fisheries biology, 
 and provides a brief description of the Drought 
 Polygon of Northeastern Brazil, the reservoir fish- 
 eries, the marketing systems and sections on past 
 and present strategy, project status, and recom- 
 mendations for future action.

 For the benefit of livestock and poultry producers, 
 feed manufacturers and scientists and research- 
 ers in animal husbandry, this report reviews poten- 
 tial sources of protein and considers ways to in- 
 crease the quantity and improve the biological 
 value of protein for animal production. Some of the 
 symposium papers presented in the report explore 
 measures for enhancing protein supplies from 
 known proteinaceous feeds, while others identify 
 and evaluate some new or underutilized sources. 
 In discussions of known sources of protein, the 
 report considers ways to improve the quantity and 
 quality of protein in cereal grain, separate protein 
 from fiber in forage crops, improve the processing 
 and utilization of animal by-product proteins, in- 
 crease production of oilseed protein, change utili- 
 zation patterns. New sources of protein discussed 
 include such less-utilized oilseeds as sunflower 
 and sesame, the grain legumes, whole fish protein, 
 single- cell protein from industrial wastes, and re- 
 cycled animal wastes.

 Two different chemical methods for reducing pop- 
 ulations of vampire bat populations are described. 
 Both methods are based on an anitcoagulant, di- 
 phenadione. The chemical is either injected into 
 the rumen of cattle or applied directly to the back 
 of vampire bats captured near livestock. The blood 
 of treated cattle is poisonous to vampire bats for 
 about three nights following treatment. Vampire 
 bats with the anticoagulant applied to their backs 
 return to their roost where the chemical is passed 
 from one to several others by contact and mutual 
 grooming. One treated vampire bat can carry suffi- 
 cient chemical to poison 20 other vampire bats.

 The development of a low-cost farm drying and 
 processing equipment that would be suitable for 
 use and manufacture in the developing countries is 
 of urgent neccessity. Such equipment could be 
 used by the medium-size farm holdings of 2 to 10 
 hectares which contribute a large portion of the 
 land under paddy cultivation in Southeast Asia. 
 Very few attempts have been made by private 
 manufacturers on the development of small drying 
 and processing equipment. Research and devel- 
 opment on low-cost drying and processing equip- 
 ment for small-scale operation is one of the impor- 
 tant areas of activities at the Agricultural Engineer- 
 ing department of the Institute.

 analyze input-output data on various types of hand 
 tractors and to define the relationship between 
 tractor use and costs via average cost curves. The 
 first section contains a technical description of 
 hand tractors used on Philippine rice farms. Infor- 
 mation on why the tractors were bought and what 
 criteria were used in choosing them are given in 
 the second section. The third section is devoted to 
 a comparative economic evaluation of power tillers 
 and the fourth is an attempt to establish the condi- 
 tions under which hand tractor repayments can be 
 made. The last section examines the impact of de- 
 valuation on hand tractor use.

 which a Michigan State University group has car- 
 ried out studies in Puerto Rico, Northeast Brazil, 
 Bolivia and Colombia in collaboration with local 
 governments and their related agencies. The ma- 
 terial being presented in this paper represents an 
 accumulation of experience over a period of ap- 
 proximately seven years by the Michigan State 
 University group. The primary purpose of this effort 
 has been to conduct diagnostic studies of internal 
 marketing systems linking large urban centers with 
 their rural supply area and to formulate recommen- 
 dations for marketing improvements. This activity 
 has centered upon agricultural marketing broadly 
 defined to include not only agricultural product 
 marketing but also the distribution of farm inputs 
 and consumer goods.

 The purpose of this paper is to discuss the design 
 of improved agricultural marketing systems as a 
 means of stimulating economic development. This 
 implies two propositions: (1) that the marketing 
 system can be an active element in the develop- 
 ment process and (2) that high performance mar- 
 keting systems do not develop automatically in re- 
 sponse to the needs of a particular situation. Mar- 
 keting is often neglected in development planning 
 because one or the other or both of these proposi- 
 tions are implicitly rejected. The theme of this 
 paper has been that improved organization and 
 coordination of food production-distribution sys- 
 tems is critical in the effective transformation from 
 a traditional agricultural economy with low produc- 
 tivity to a scientific industrial one with high produc- 
 tivity.

 Rice is the main food crop in the tropics. It is the 
 only important crop capable of growing in flooded 
 soils because of its ability to oxide its rhizosphere. 
 Rice responds almost universally to nitrogen fertil- 
 ization. Nitrogen reactions are markedly affected 
 by oxidation-reduction status of the soil, which 
 largely depends on water management and soil 
 physical conditions. Temporary flooding in most 
 tropical areas causes loss of native or applied ni- 
 trogen. The responses of rice to nitrogen are mini- 
 mal when tall varieties are used. In contrast, the 
 responses are large and economical when higher 
 rates are applied to short-statured varieties. Nitro- 
 gen recommendations for flooded rice are based 
 on soil properties, plant type, solar energy, tem- 
 perature, water management, and spacing.

 The paper addresses itself specifically to the prob- 
 lems of modernizing and upgrading the rice milling 
 industry. More precisely, it is an attempt to critically 
 assess the efficiency and economics of existing 
 rice milling technologies. The objectives are to de- 
 termine the potential for technical improvements in 
 existing systems and, where feasible, the efficacy 
 of initiating activities to design and develop new 
 technologies which will increase efficiency and 
 reduce losses. The analysis is confined principally 
 to milling equipment and does not include an eval- 
 uation of issues relating to storage or drying.

 The paper provides an outline and analysis of 
 three effective models of programs for small farm 
 agricultural areas based upon ten years experi- 
 ence in Bangladesh. The models are for (1) effec- 
 tive agricultural cooperatives, (2) the improvement 
 of rural government, and (3) for a social science 
 institution which conducts pilot operations, train- 
 ing, and research in rural development. In a broad- 
 er social science framework, development pro- 
 grams require analysis in the framework of cultural 
 and economic change. The role of models such as 
 the three analyzed here is to provide ways to ac- 
 celerate change at a productive rate toward de- 
 sired goals.

 Innovative approaches are explored for measuring 
 and identifying benefits to area economic develop- 
 ment through water resource improvements. A 
 new approach was developed and tested, and 
 some significant methodological conclusions were 
 reached. General conclusions of the analysis relat- 
 ing water resource projects and other public ex- 
 penditures to economic development are: (1) 
 water-related investments affect both the level of 
 economic activity and its growth; (2) water re- 
 source developments viewed as factors of produc- 
 tion can be examined for their substitution relation- 
 ships with non-water production factors; and (3) 
 the effect of water on economic growth depends 
 on (a) the state of the regional economy in which 
 the investment is made, and (b) other non-water 
 investments.

 A system that has an economic advantage over 
 septic tanks under certain soil conditions is the 
 aerobic system. The use of serobic systems is de- 
 scribed including unit functions, types of units 
 available, and problems and recommendations for 
 improvement. Aerobic units under experimental 
 conditions were observed to produce a better ef- 
 fluent than a septic tank. However, the perform- 
 ance as claimed by the manufacturers, could be 
 misleading to homeowners. The results of tests 
 run on the units located in the field show that the 
 units are meeting the manufacturers standards 
 about 20% of the time. These units only average 
 about a 44% reduction in BOD. This is assuming 
 an incoming BOD of 250 mg/liter. In some cases 
 the tests showed an influent BOD greater than 
 this.

 With the DDT ban, effective January 1, 1973, the 
 use of a variety of other chemicals must be in- 
 creased to substitute for DDT in the control of in- 
 sects. Replacement chemicals will probably in- 
 clude among others: organophosphates; carba- 
 mates; chlorinated hydrocarbons; and botanicals. 
 Chemicals replacing DDT will be less persistent in 
 the environment than DDT. Some replacement 
 chemicals will be more acutely toxic to man and, 
 therefore, will present greater potential hazards. 
 An intensive short-term educational program, Proj- 
 ect Safeguard, is underway to train the farmer in 
 the safe use of these replacement chemicals, and 
 this program should minimize the hazards from im- 
 proper use. The potential still exists, however, for 
 an increased incidence of toxic exposure and re- 
 sulting clinical illness, in which accurate diagnosis 
 and prompt treatment could mean the difference 
 between life and death.

 This collection of articles emphasizes the value of 
 determining the costs associated with water-borne 
 externalities. Pecuniary, technical, marginal and in- 
 framarginal externalities are defined and their ef- 
 fects on societies' production possibilities are ex- 
 amined. A survey was made to determine the loss 
 of commercial fishing income arising from a fishing 
 ban on an Alabama lake caused by mercury pollu- 
 tion. Total income loss to fishermen was mitigated 
 by shifting their resources to other uses; as a 
 result, it appears that only 15 commerical fisher- 
 men suffered income losses. The effect of produc- 
 tion, consumption and disposal decisions on level 
 and form of residuals was also examined. The 
 modeling effort illustrates the flow of residuals and 
 costs arising from power generation from either 
 coal or nuclear fuel. The effect of water quality on 
 regional growth was examined using an input- 
 output model. A decrease in usable water was 
 traced to show its composite effect on income, 
 consumption, and governmental expenditures and 
 revenues.

 man's historic occupance of arid and semiarid re- 
 gions that have contributed to degeneration of 
 marginal lands: agricultural and irrigation practices, 
 grazing, tire, nomadism, and sand stablization and 
 reforestation. Beyond these two categories, there 
 is a third: climatic fluctuation - - short-term weather

 A.I.D. has been concerned, for an extended period 
 of time, over the deleterious practice, in many 
 tropical countries, of concentrating on a relatively 
 limited number of species of tropical woods for ex- 
 ploitation. This investigative report, through review 
 of available literature and on-the-ground consulta- 
 tion in selected countries, attempts to determine 
 whether lack of knowledge of secondary species 
 characteristics is the primary deterrent to their in- 
 creased use, or whether there are other equally 
 and perhaps more important factors to be consid- 
 ered.

 Thirty recommendations have been made for es- 
 tablishing groups within or reporting to the NSF 
 Solar Energy Program Office and initiating activi- 
 ties for the dissemination and utilization of solar 
 energy research results. The primary recommen- 
 dations include establishing an Advisory Commis- 
 sion and an information office reporting to the Pro- 
 gram Director and constructing visitor centers on 
 the sites of each Proof of Cencept Experiment. 
 Training courses and public education would be 
 conducted at each center following successful op-

 The two-day conference addressed itself to the 
 question of biological conversion of waste and 
 feedlot materials to methane. The specific objec- 
 tives of the conference were: to exchange recent 
 research information between engineers and sci- 
 entists on research accomplishments and prob- 
 lems related to bioconversion studies; to contrib- 
 ute to the long-range planning of the funding agen- 
 cies and research workers in the field; to provide 
 improved communications between the research 
 community and the users' groups; to identify the 
 processes and technology important to the pro- 
 duction of methane from waste and feed lot mate- 
 rials; to identify the important economic factors as- 
 sociated with bioconversion processes. These 
 proceedings consist of the summary statements 
 provided by each principal speaker at the confer- 
 ence, together with a transcript of essentially all of 
 the tape-recorded question-and-answer period

 As an alternative to chemical control, water hya- 
 cinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and hydrilla (Hydrilla 
 verticillata) can be converted to agricultural useful 
 products. Whole or chopped plants can be readily 
 
 composted to create an organic material for pot- 
 ting plants. The 90 to 95% moisture content plants 
 can be pressed to remove 75% of the water with a 
 modest energy input. The pressed plants can be 
 ensiled with suitable additives or dried to make 
 animal feed. Animal acceptability of properly made 
 hyacinth silage was very good. Animal utilization of 
 protein was poor and that of other nutrients was 
 fair for both dried and ensiled water hyacinth.

 One of the key considerations in selecting a 
 system of solid waste management is the relative 
 costs of the available alternative systems. This 
 report was prepared in order to provide public offi- 
 cials and solid waste management planners with 
 information upon which they can base estimated 
 costs of operating a rural transfer system as well 
 as a modified landfill system. The suggested esti- 
 mating techniques are compatible and permit com- 
 parison of the estimated costs of these two alter- 
 native management systems. The experience of 
 the Lane County, Oregon Solid Waste Division pro- 
 vided the basis for development of the cost esti- 
 mating techniques outlined in this report.

 As part of a study of aspects of normal road-build- 
 ing practice in tropical countries, the states of com- 
 paction achieved in road bases and earthworks 
 were investigated at ten road construction 
 schemes in East Africa. In addition, where possi- 
 ble, controlled compaction trials were carried out. 
 The most significant conclusion from the investiga- 
 tion is that the states of compaction achieved in 
 the field correspond quite closely with those ob- 
 tained in full-scale compaction tests carried out at 
 the Transport and Road Research Laboratory. The 
 study showed that the states of compaction com- 
 
 monly specified for tropical roads can be attained 
 under normal working condition. (Modified author

 and decision-makers to assist them in measuring 
 and evaluating the market and non-market bene- 
 fits and costs of water resource systems. The 
 techniques are designed to be sufficiently flexible 
 to analyze all types of water development and 
 management policies. The report describes: (1) 
 the techniques developed to measure the eco- 
 nomic, environmental, and social impacts of water 
 policy alternatives, and (2) the application of these 
 techniques to a test case of three existing reser- 
 voirs to determine the method's efficacy. The anal- 
 yses are conducted in three major areas: econom-

 Laboratory studies were conducted to determine 
 the feasibility of reducing the COD demand of 
 cheese whey waste generated from dairy process- 
 ing plants. Three primary processing variables 
 were studied: Agitation, temperature, and current 
 density. Results indicate electrolytic oxidation effi- 
 ciency was best at 70C, agitation at 9.6 feet per 
 second and a current density of 9.5 amperes per 
 square foot (equivalent to 6 amperes in the test 
 cell investigated). Concentration of 60 percent of 
 the whey protein was also possible by collection of 
 the froth produced during electrolysis. This mecha- 
 nism of COD reduction could afford recoverable 
 protein from the whey. Carbon adsorption of the 
 electrolyzed whey was also shown to be extremely 
 effective in reducing the COD. The carbohydrates 
 after oxidation to carboxylic acids are very readily 
 adsorbed, the carbon loading being in excess of 
 that expected for secondary effluents. The feasibil- 
 ity of combining the electrolytic oxidation with froth 
 collection and carbon adsorption is proposed as a 
 possible attractive procedure for recovery of 
 values from the whey.

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 From the operation of a demonstration pilot plant 
 over extended periods of time, it has been shown 
 that yeast may be grown on an acid whey or sweet 
 whey medium in a continuous, deep tank aerated 
 fermentor. Variations in fermentation conditions, 
 strain selection, and medium composition pro- 
 duced cell concentrations of several billion cells 
 per milliliter. By a process of evaporation and spray 
 drying the whole fermented whey mass and the uti- 
 lization of the evaporator condensate to dilute in- 
 coming condensed whey, a high grade, non-toxic, 
 protein feed material may be produced without any 
 effluent streams. Amino acid analyses and protein 
 efficiency ratios are presented for this feed materi- 
 al. This whey fermentation is one means of con- 
 verting large quantities of a potential environmen- 
 tal pollutant into a useful and needed product.

 Part A of the report examines the feasibility of 
 using dried paunch at 10, 20, and 30% levels in 
 feed for pond-rearing yearling channel catfish to 
 market-size, and at a 10% level for cage-culture of 
 yearling catfish. Part B describes the effects of fish 
 culture, using standard feeds and paunch-contain- 
 ing feeds, on water quality of fish ponds. In all, one 
 physical, one bacteriological, and fifteen chemical 
 parameters were measured. Regardless of feed 
 type, pond-reared fish grew faster than the cage- 
 reared fish. There was no significant difference in 
 final weights attained by fish given standard, and 
 10 and 20% paunch feeds but fish given 30% 
 paunch were significantly smaller. Neither the 
 pond culture nor the cage culture caused deterio- 
 ration in water quality in any of the ponds to any 
 appreciable degree in one growing season of 24 
 weeks. (Modified author abstract)

 The report reviews the character, direction, and 
 activities of the Peace Corps in relation to prospec- 
 tive developing country needs, as input to current 
 agency reassessment of long-range policy and op- 
 erations plan. It recommends that the Peace Corps 
 maintain its distinctive character as a volunteer 
 program supplying middle-level manpower with the 
 two-fold purpose of helping other countries and 
 promoting international understanding. It recom- 
 mends that the Corps adopt measures to enhance 
 effective use of generalist volunteers, provide sec- 
 toral areas such as agriculture, health and nutri- 
 tion, more technical support and planning, assure 
 self-monitoring and performance data collection, 
 and continue operation on a bilateral basis with 
 binational management of local units.

 With overpopulation, energy shortages, and envi- 
 ronmental degradation the world's population is 
 fast losing its capacity to feed itself. To produce 
 more food to feed the rapidly growing world popu- 
 lation will require intensifying crop production on 
 limited arable land. This will, in turn, place a greater 
 demand upon the already scarce energy re- 
 sources. Hence, a need clearly exists to make 
 more effective use of the world's known energy 
 and land resources. Discussed are research needs 
 concerning energy inputs in crop production, alter- 
 natives in food production for effective use of 
 energy and environmental resources, and esti- 
 mates of energy needs to increase world food pro- 
 duction.

 The report examines the crisis in urban land from 
 the perspective of one instrument available to the 
 public sector - the Land Development Agency - 
 through which the public interest can be represent- 
 ed in the urban land market. It is not intended to be 
 an exhaustive study of world experience, but rather 
 a basic review of the key issues of concern and the 
 preparation of recommendations and guidelines 
 for the establishment and administration of Land 
 Development Agencies. Its purpose is to stimulate 
 interested persons to undertake further studies 
 leading to the improvement of land development 
 agencies in the developing countries.

 The formation of methane by biological conversion 
 of a number of organic materials has been exam- 
 ined. The materials exposed to the anaerobic fer- 
 mentation process included paper, grass, house- 
 hold garbage, fresh water algae, water hyacinth, 
 seaweed, cattle manure, dry manure, dry dog food. 
 These materials have been examined separately 
 and in various combinations. During operation of 
 the digester, the amount and composition (meth- 
 ane and carbon dioxide) of the gases produced by 
 the fermentation were determined and extensive 
 chemical analyses of the composition of the liquid 
 contents of the digesters were carried out. Similar 
 chemical analyses of the various materials fed to 
 the digester were carried out as well as analyses of 
 the sea water used in several of the studies.

 The general objectives of the present study were 
 to develop an anaerobic digestion process for the 
 treatment of the rum distillery slops stream at the 
 pilot scale, and to establish design criteria for the 
 full-scale application of the process. Both bench 
 and pilot-scale experimental studies were con- 
 ducted with the anaerobic contact process flow 
 sheet (incorporating biomass recycle) to permit de- 
 termination of the Monod kinetic constants and the 
 kinetic relationships describing the anaerobic 
 treatment of the slops. The process kinetics were 
 used to examine the operating and performance 
 characteristics of a plant-scale application. A proc- 
 ess flow sheet was established and design criteria 
 developed as the basis for estimating the cost of a 
 plant-scale installation. The process kinetic rela- 
 tionships and the economic analysis were used to 
 structure a cost-performance relationship to exam- 
 ine tradeoffs between cost, performance, and se- 
 lected design variables.

 Guidelines are provided for feedlot operators who 
 dispose of lagoon, water on agricultural lands. The 
 design of lagoon, pumps, and irrigation systems 
 are not discussed. Because lagoon water contains 
 such plant nutrients as nitrogen, phosphorus, and 
 potassium, its application on agricultural land, in 
 correct amounts, can increase crop yields. Howev- 
 er, because it also contains salts of sodium, cal- 
 cium, and magnesium, too much lagoon water can 
 pollute the soil. The salt accumulation from lagoon 
 water is most likely to occur in dry areas where pre- 
 cipitation is not adequate to leach the salts down- 
 ward below the root zone. Guidelines on how to 
 dispose of such lagoon water to minimize the 
 chance of reducing the land's productivity are 
 given. The guidelines are based on present irriga- 
 tion-water-quality standards and on data collected 
 from various feedlots in Kansas.

 Laboratory studies were conducted to determine 
 optimal growth conditions of Hydrilla verticillata 
 and Eichhornia crassipes on both entire plants and 
 detached leaf cultures. Techniques were then de- 
 veloped for surface sterilization of both the entire 
 and plant parts for both species. Numerous weed 
 infested habitats in Florida were examined for 
 signs of aquatic plant diseases. These studies indi- 
 cated various environmental factors as well as 
 possible microbial pathogens as a source of plant 
 tissue debilitation. No significant microbial patho- 
 gen was observed for H. verticillata, however, a 
 pathogenic species of a Deutromycete was isolat- 
 ed from a leaf spot on E. crassipes. Characteriza- 
 tion of this fungus revealed it to be an Alternaria 
 species of the order Moniales. Infection was pro- 
 duced via agar block techniques and aerosol spore 
 suspensions. Experiments are described concern-

 nomically and technically acceptable alternative to 
 the extensively used corrugated galvanized iron, a 
 material which has undesirably high foreign ex-

 A theoretical model is presented of interrelation- 
 ships between economic and environmental 
 models useful for water management, together 
 with basic data on 130 types of pollutants from 70 
 different industries. The purpose is to get good 
 data and analytic methods needed to improve en- 
 vironmental management. The first step has been 
 to devise a materials balance accounting structure 
 to provide a format for emissions. The collected 
 and internally developed data have been used to 
 create a simple two-stage model of the emissions 
 process. High priority in environmental research 
 appears appropriate for the evaluation of damage 
 functions associated with various reported emis- 
 sions levels. Integration of this additional informa- 
 tion with the data on hand should lead to the im- 
 provement desired in environmental management.

 able natural resources. An animal waste manage- 
 ment scheme was developed on the premise that 
 one solution to these problems is the development 
 of integrated production systems with recycled 
 sources. The waste product of one industry must 
 become the raw material for another. The feasibil- 
 ity of using waste heat from steam electric plants 
 to sustain a food-producing complex which recy- 
 cles nutrients is analyzed. Specifically, it is pro- 
 posed to use microorganisms to convert animal 
 waste into a high protein animal feed and a meth- 
 ane-rich fuel gas. Waste heat from steam electric 
 plants is used as a low cost source of energy for 
 maintaining stable, elevated temperatures in an- 
 aerobic digestion and single cell protein production 
 units. Benefits to society include: improved effi- 
 ciency of energy use and food production, recy- 
 cling of raw materials, and conservation of non-re- 
 newable resources.

 Development of methods for the economic pro- 
 duction of methane gas by the anaerobic digestion 
 of organic matter is discussed. The organic matter 
 is derived from the conversion of solar energy to 
 plant material via photosynthesis. An initial source 
 of feed material is available in the form of organic 
 solid wastes, the by-products of food, feed and 
 wood production. The conversion of waste materi- 
 als to fuel gas via anaerobic digestion represents a 
 potential solution not only to the energy problem, 
 but simultaneously to the solid wastes problem.

 In June, 1974 the First Binational (U.S./Australian) 
 Symposium on Urban Systems Research was held 
 in Washington, D.C. There was 29 presentations 
 made by experts from the two countries. These 
 covered such areas as (1) land use models (Lowry- 
 type, NBER, PLUM, EMPIRIC, the Direct Trip Allo- 
 cation Model, System Dynamics), (2) growth allo- 
 cation techniques, (3) growth management, (4) the 
 experience of practitioners with models, (5) urban 
 problems and practices in developing countries, 
 (6) the United Nations' Habitat '76 Program, (7) or- 
 ganizing government, (8) community involvement, 
 (9) gaming, (10) land use law, and (11) national 
 growth policies. It was concluded from the sympo- 
 sium that much more work needs to be done in 
 urban modeling, especially because of rapid 
 changes in uncontrollable, external factors.

 Research was conducted to reduce the cost of 
 aquatic plant harvesting by increasing harvester 
 productivity through high-speed harvesting, by re- 
 ducing the handling costs of the harvested vegeta- 
 tion, and/or by improving the potential for econom- 
 ic utilization of the vegetation. Also described are 
 the design, construction, and testing of a craft for 
 concentrating and collecting pre-cut, floating 
 aquatic vegetation at speeds several times those 
 of conventional harvesters. Recommendations are 
 made for increasing the mechanical efficiency of 
 this machine. A moisture prediction function was 
 developed for aquatic vegetation subjected to 
 pressure. Presented are data on the chemical con- 
 stituents of the vegetation which were compared 
 to conventional forage materials. Possible uses of 
 the cut vegetation are enumerated.

 The consumption of energy, fertilizer, water, and 
 cropland has been calculated for nine different 
 beef production systems. These systems vary with 
 respect to region, type of pasture and cropland, 
 and feeding program. Among the nine systems, 
 there is a considerable range of resource inten- 
 siveness, depending on factors such as type of 
 pasture, type of cropland (irrigated vs. dryland) and 
 kinds of roughages and protein supplements. Data 
 are also presented on the consumption of the 
 same resources in the production of wheat and 
 soybeans in the same regions, on comparable land 
 to that used to raise cattle feeds. In all cases, the 
 resource consumption for beef is very much great- 
 er than for a wheat/soybean mixture of equivalent 
 protein value.

 play an increasing role in meeting food needs in 
 this time of food shortages and widespread malnu- 
 trition. In addition to the major cultivated edible le- 
 
 gumes-soybeans, peanuts (groundnuts), peas, 
 and beans-there are more than 50 minor tropical 
 legumes that have received little scientific atten-

 cereals). This report focuses on the exceptional 
 promise offered by one of these: the winged bean.

 The report compares crop production on a sample 
 of 16 mixed crop-livestock farms in the Corn Belt 
 on which no inorganic fertilizers and almost no 
 pesticides are used, to that of a matched sample 
 that uses conventional fertilization and pest con- 
 trol practices. In the 1974 crop year, the market 
 value of the crops raised per acre was slightly 
 higher on the conventional sample (an average of 
 8%), but this difference was not statistically signifi- 
 cant at the 90% probability level. There was no dif- 
 ference between the two group's crop production 
 returns, that is, value of production less operating 
 costs. The energy intensiveness (defined as 
 energy input divided by value of production) on the 
 farms that do not use fertilizers is an average of 
 one-third as much as that of the conventional 
 group.

 Using an alkaline extraction procedure, a human-

 from corn and wheat distillers by-products. The re- 
 covery process yielded approximately 54% and 
 36% of the original protein (as a protein concen-

 respectively. Nutritional and functional tests on the 
 distillers concentrate indicated that it can be used 
 in the fortification of cereal-based snacks, cookies 
 and bread, and as an emulsion binder/extender in 
 emulsified meat products. The alkaline extraction 
 of distillers by-products also yielded new forms of 
 animal feeds, i.e. from corn, a 12% protein high- 
 fiber feed, a 4% protein - 33% carbohydrate syrup, 
 and a 6% protein - 20% carbohydrate whey frac-

 The primary purpose of the report to draw atten- 
 tion, at the decision-making level, to a little-known 
 and neglected field of massive opportunity - foliage 
 utilization. Foliage derivatives can be used in a 
 wide range of products utilized in animal feeds, 
 cosmetics, medicine, and veterinary practice. Of 
 greatest immediate interest is the conversion of fo- 
 liage to muka, used as a vitamin supplement in 
 animal feeds. Of greatest importance on a global 
 basis is the fact that every ton of foliage used in 
 animal feeds can release one tone of grain to in- 
 crease world food stocks. Foliage can be convert- 
 ed to muka in a few simple processing steps, at 
 costs which should be competitive with alternative 
 animal feed supplements. The potential value of 
 muka manufactured in Canada could be in the hun- 
 dreds of millions of dollars per year, and the addi- 
 tion to world food stocks in the millions of tons per 
 year. In the case of muka manufacture and use, 
 the problem is primarily one of assessment, recog- 
 nition of opportunity, and application of developed 
 technologies.

 This study has compiled and organized information 
 that will be useful to responsible authorities in ad- 
 vising the layman (particularly the homeowner and 
 small farmer) how to dispose properly of small 
 amounts of surplus and unwanted pesticides and 
 pesticide containers, and in treating pesticide 
 spills. The report brings together available informa- 
 tion on pesticide disposal methods and on over 
 550 individual pesticides, and evaluates this infor- 
 mation in terms of the experience and equipment 
 that the average layman has. Fourteen pesticide 
 disposal procedures are described and proce- 
 dures for disposal of containers and cleanup and 
 treatment of spills are included. Preferred and al- 
 ternate disposal procedures are recommend for 
 over 550 pesticides. The report includes a cross-

 Arizona. WAMIS is a computerized bibliographic 
 reference retrieval system which provides litera- 
 ture searches for users, in the form of individual- 
 ized computer printouts of citations and abstracts, 
 based upon a user's special interests. The litera- 
 ture covered in WAMIS includes effects of land 
 management practices and vegatation manage- 
 ment on water and other related resources, such 
 as forage production, wildlife habitat, timber pro- 
 duction, and recreational use. Research done in 
 Arizona has been emphasized. General proce-

 A five-year study in the Southern High Plains 
 (annual rainfall of 16 inches) using combinations of 
 bare micro-watershed and growing bed widths re- 
 sulted in increased crop yields on the growing 
 beds as the proportion of micro-watershed was in- 
 creased. However, yields for the entire area (in- 
 cluding both bed and shed) decreased. Limited 
 work indicated the possibility of also cropping the 
 shed areas and it was concluded that this would be 
 a more practical way of utilizing micro-watersheds. 
 Grain sorghum and sunflowers were successful 
 dryland crops on both beds and sheds while wheat 
 was more suitable as a crop on the sheds rather 
 than on the beds. The use of an antitranspirant 
 (atrazine) gave promising results on grain sorghum 
 but further work is needed.

 An interdisciplinary group of about 200 persons 
 met to review the present base of scientific knowl- 
 edge relating to benefits and constraints of using 
 wastewaters for production of food and fiber. 
 There were 27 papers presented by representa- 
 tives from the fields of public health, engineering, 
 agriculture, aquaculture, and other related scientif- 
 ic disciplines. Papers in two sections on potential 
 restraints cover topics such as historical instances 
 of disease transmission, possible transport of mi- 
 crobial pathogens through the food chain, legal im- 
 plications, and sociological reactions. The aqua- 
 culture section deals primarily with experimental 
 studies including such diverse approaches as cul- 
 ture of daphnia, salmon smolts, and water hya- 
 cinth. The agriculture section emphasizes the use 
 of wastewater for crop production and the papers 
 presented include case histories for long-term op- 
 erating systems, as well as data from experimental 
 studies. In addition to those papers presented at 
 the conference, nine others have been included to 
 make a total of 36 papers in the conference pro- 
 ceedings.

 From the observation that the inelastic response 
 to earthquakes of reinforced concrete elements 
 could be represented by a linear-response model, 
 a procedure was developed in another report 
 which incorporated the effects of inelastic energy 
 dissipation to determine the design force for a 
 single-degree-of-freedom structure using the ordi- 
 nary linear-response spectrum. The substitute- 
 structure method extends this procedure to multi- 
 degree-of-freedom structures. The proposed 
 method can be used to determine earthquake 
 design-force requirements for individual elements 
 of a R/C structure given a design linear-response 
 spectrum and explicit decisions about tolerable in- 
 
 elastic response, with the option of different limits 
 of inelastic response in different structural ele- 
 ments. The paper includes a numerical example 
 demonstrating the determination design forces in a 
 three-story frame and a series of analytical tests of 
 the method using two- to ten-story frames.

 peasant farmer in Thailand or the Philippines to im- 
 prove the quality of his life.' It was found that wind- 
 power was being used to a very limited extent in 
 Thailand to move water, thus relieving either a 
 backbreaking manual labor task, or a very expen- 
 sive out-of-pocket expenditure for fuel for engine 
 driven pumps. No evidence of existing wind pump-

 A combined waste recycling-marine aquaculture 
 system capable of complete nitrogen removal from 
 treated domestic wastewater has been developed 
 and tested on a pilot-plant scale over a one-year 
 period. Effluent from secondary sewage treatment, 
 mixed with seawater, is used to grow unicellular 
 marine algae in large, continuous-flow, outdoor 
 mass cultures. Harvest from the algae cultures is 
 fed to oysters and other filter-feeding bivalve mol- 
 luscs and to secondary crops of flounders or lob- 
 sters. Dissolved wastes produced by the animals 
 are assimilated by cultures of commercially-valua- 
 ble seaweeds. Successful cultures of unicellular 
 algae, mostly diatoms, and seaweeds have been 
 sustained over long periods of time (months) with 
 only minor problems. Bivalve mollusc culture was 
 unsuccessful during the first year of operation. An 
 alternative nitrogen-removal system consisting 
 only of seaweeds fed a continuous flow of second- 
 ary sewage effluent mixed with seawater has also 
 been evaluated. Year-round operation would be 
 possible in tropical to semi-tropical climates. In 
 temperate climates, operation of the system is 
 possible only on a seasonal basis.

 Wastewater in Coastal Areas. The Conference 
 was conducted to review the state of the art of 
 proper planning and management of water supply 
 and wastewater disposal in coastal areas. Special 
 attention was paid to defining technological and in- 
 stitutional alternatives, their relation to land use 
 planning and environmental protection, and to 
 identifying those water and wastewater problems 
 of significance in coastal areas. A major problem 
 that was discussed at the conference is associat- 
 ed with increasing population growth and econom- 
 ic development in these areas is the provision of 
 safe and adequate water supplies and manage- 
 ment of wastewater discharges in a manner con- 
 sistent with public health and welfare and environ- 
 mental protection. Both the presentations and dis- 
 cussion sessions are included in the report.

 As part of Georgia Tech's five-year program (US/ 
 AID-funded) to expand its existing capabilities in 
 employment generation through small-scale indus- 
 try development, a cooperative relationship was 
 established with Soong Jun University in Korea. 
 One of the first projects to be initiated by the two 
 institutions was a joint staff research study of a 
 small labor-intensive industry to determine how its 
 productivity could be increased without displacing 
 employment. Because of Soong Jun University's 
 interest in starting an industrial engineering cur- 
 riculum in its engineering school, it was decided 
 the project team would take an industrial engineer- 
 ing approach in conducting this research effort.

 During 1973 the Smithsonian Institution's Office of 
 International and Environmental Programs under- 
 took a case study of the Volta Lake in Ghana. This 
 was one of a series of case studies, carried out for 
 the U.S. Agency for International Development, 
 designed to better understand the environmental 
 impacts of various development projects or situa- 
 tions. The purpose of these studies was to extract 
 lessons which could be translated into guidelines 
 to orient future development, in order to prevent 
 costly and avoidable environmental impacts. The 
 case study approach was chosen in view of the 
 proven advantages of obtaining detailed under- 
 standing of a specific development. The Volta 
 Lake was seen to constitute an excellent case 
 study opportunity for a review of the environmental 
 impacts of impounding a tropical river. Impacts in 
 the impoundment area have been well researched 
 and documented, and they are not dissimilar from 
 the known impacts of other African man-made 
 lakes. And like other hydropower schemes, the 
 benefits have been very substantial.

 This report covers Phase II (May 1974 through 
 September 1 975) of a 3-1 12 year research effort to 
 match indigenous fibers and fillers with low cost 
 binders to produce improved roofing for develop- 
 ing countries. The project emphasis during Phase 
 II was on roofing materials development, and es- 
 tablishing the mechanism for the transfer of the 
 technology. Four candidate composite roofing ma- 
 terial systems were defined that use between 70 
 and 100% indigenous material. Outstanding as a 
 filler is the sugar cane residue, bagasse. The pri- 
 mary candidate binders include natural rubber, 
 phenolic, and commercial thermoplastic resins. 
 Accelerated and outdoor aging demonstrate the 
 viability of the candidate systems. The objectives 
 of the technology transfer aspects included defin- 
 ing potential collaborative institutions and individ- 
 uals of Jamaica, the Philippines, Zambia and 
 Ghana and locating qualified organizations inter- 
 ested in future commercial production of the roof- 
 ing.

 In recent years, progress in the cultivation of 
 cotton has been very marked, thanks to the cre- 
 ation of productive varieties with good industrial 
 qualities, and the use of chemical fertilizers and of 
 the increase in the area of land protected against 
 insects. Growers, however, remain defenseless 
 against the damage caused by boll rot, which af- 
 fects, on an average 10 to 20% of the fruit. The 
 object of this study conducted mainly at the Cen- 
 tral Station of the Research Institute for Cotton 
 and Exotic Textiles at Bamberi (Central African Re- 
 public) is to perfect a method of control to limit this 
 damage. The present study proposes to define the 
 different type of damage suffered by the fruit, to 
 identify the organisms responsible and their mode 
 of penetration, to define the obstacles the boll pre- 
 sents to the attack of parasites, and the principles 
 of a method of control.

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 This case history represents some 18 months of 
 research carried out by the author on site in Ecua- 
 dor in an attempt to get a first hand picture of the 
 situation. Among the findings of this study are the 
 following: Artisan enterprises and cottage activities 
 employ well over 200,000 persons, who, in gener- 
 al, manage to earn enough to provide for a precar- 
 ious existence. In most cases, the artisan performs 
 his activity to generate additional income for his 
 family needs. These persons would be better off 
 with an industrial job if jobs were available. Great 
 confusion and misunderstanding exist in the inter- 
 pretation of the existing laws which govern arti- 
 sans and small-scale industries. There is need for 
 a well-reasoned, logical, pragmatic action plan 
 which will address the present situation and assure 
 obtainable goals over the next decade.

 ports were prepared; NBSIR 74-582 FY73 Prog- 
 ress Report (first phase of the research--4 months) 
 and NBSIR 74-567 FY74 Progress Report (second 
 phase of the research-1 2 months). During FY75, 6 
 major tasks were completed (instrumentation of 
 fifth and sixth of six test houses to collect full scale 
 field wind data, continuation of technician training 
 at the field sites and at the wind tunnel facility, ana- 
 lyzed of extreme wind data, development of draft 
 improved design criteria reports, participation in re- 
 gional conferences in Manila and scheduling of re- 
 gional dissemination of project results conference 
 in Jamaica for November 1975). Research activi- 
 ties will be completed in December 1975. A final 
 report will be published by the end of FY76.

 The importance and interrelationships of planning, 
 organization-coordination, and control of water 
 quality management are analyzed as applicable to 
 the water quality problem in a rural area. Spillover 
 effects on water quality management are identified 
 and evaluated in terms of efficiency and equity, by 
 analyzing resource allocation within market and 
 property systems. A model was developed for 
 maximizing social benefits subject to specific water 
 quality restrictions and applied to the Upper Skunk 
 River Basin in Central Iowa. An institutional frame- 
 work for water quality control was developed. 
 Water quality planning may be simplified by appli- 
 cation of charges to point source pollutants and 
 standards to diffused pollutants. To allow for opti- 
 mal planning and allocation of water qualities over 
 time, it may be necessary to specify rights in water 
 qualities by tenure contracts between public and 
 user.

 An investigation was made of the feasibility of 
 using precipitation management as a method for 
 the vegetative restoration of strip mine spoils in 
 arid and semi-arid areas, and for the economic and 
 environmental improvement of reclaimed mine 
 spoils. The procedure is believed to be capable of 
 producing vegetative systems of higher economic 
 and wildlife habitat value than exists naturally on 
 these same lands or might be produced by other 
 non-irrigated methods. It would appear that the 
 cost of the necessary R and D program would be 
 
 minimal, particularly when compared with the po- 
 tential economic, environmental and social bene- 
 fits which would accrue.

 The report presents estimates of the cost of oper- 
 ating several alternative systems for holding and 
 landing finfish caught incidental to shrimp trawling 
 operations. Freezer units, brine immersion tanks, 
 an on-board fish meal plant, and extra crew 
 member and a mother-ship concept are the sys- 
 tems evaluated. Break-even prices are estimated 
 that would be necessary to cover operating costs 
 and a 10 percent return on investment. Additional- 
 ly, problems in traditional work patterns, crew in- 
 centives, and institutional arrangements are dis- 
 cussed. Comparison of estimated break-even 
 prices with recent market prices indicate that none 
 of the proposed systems are viable except under 
 very restrictive conditions. The mother-ship or 
 tender vessel concept shows the most economic 
 potential but is plagued with problems of coordi- 
 nating a large number of vessels in an industry 
 where independence of operation is valued highly. 
 The analytical model presented may be used to 
 evaluate other systems not considered directly in 
 this study.

 lated for each facility and, where applicable, reve- 
 nue from steam sales was included. Operational, 
 performance, and environmental analyses were 
 performed for all units involved. This report is the 
 latest state-of-the-art report on small incineration, 
 should serve as a guide for municipalities consid- 
 ering such a system, and can be used for compari-

 A mathematical model of multiple-use in natural 
 areas was developed. The model represents a uni- 
 fied system for the evaluation of cases where tradi- 
 tional forms of economic development such as in- 
 dustrial manufacturing, suburban residential ex- 
 pansion, or mineral extraction are proposed for rel- 
 atively natural areas having significant environ- 
 mental amenity values. The model system is a 
 unique benefit-cost analysis that allows for a ratio- 
 nal comparison of the costs and benefits associat- 
 ed with both developmental and environment-re- 
 lated activities. The option value has been incorpo- 
 rated into the analysis, and methods have been 
 devised for the estimation of desirability. The 
 model was applied to a study of multiple-use man- 
 agement of the Great Santee Swamp in South 
 Carolina.

 Decentralized tomato processing merits consider- 
 ation as an alternative to the conventional central- 
 ized operation, which processes fresh tomatoes 
 into a finished product in a single factory. A study 
 was made to determine savings that would be 
 made if the cleaning and juicing operations were 
 done at satellite locations in rural tomato growing 
 areas and the final processing operations complet- 
 ed at existing canneries. The study used typical 
 California growing, distribution, and factory meth- 
 ods. Economic feasibility was evaluated for satel- 
 lites processing 50 tons per hour of fresh tomatoes 
 into a pasteurized juice; the study used a modified 
 Stollsteimer model for determining optimal size, 
 number of plants, and location of the processing 
 facilities.

 Lanka (Ceylon) and the National Academy of Sci- 
 ence of the U.S. The workshop's purpose was to 
 identify scientifically sound projects that exploit 
 natural products, that are realistic for Sri Lanka, 
 and that can significantly contribute to the nation's 
 economic and scientific development. This report, 
 which has resulted from the joint deliberations of 
 the Ceylonese and American workshop partici- 
 pants, presents a number of suggestions for im- 
 provement of ongoing programs, for marshalling 
 latent resources, and for experimenting with new 
 food and export crops. Suggestions and recom- 
 mendations have resulted from the pooled knowl- 
 edge and experience of all participants and are 
 presented in several chapters that reflect the sub- 
 ject matter of the working sub-groups of the work- 
 shop.

 The report is on plants that shows promise for im- 
 proving the quality of life in tropical areas. The 
 report aims to provide a brief introduction to the 
 plants selected. It is neither a textbook nor a com- 
 prehensive survey of tropical botany. The report 
 does not detail how to introduce the plants to new 
 areas. Readers should appreciate that achieving 
 this goal may be complex and difficult. Many plants 
 discussed in this report have defied dissemination 
 (or domestication) for a century or more. Plant in- 
 troduction cannot be divorced from plant manage- 
 ment; a lack of horticultural knowledge or experi- 
 ence will frequently cause a plant introduction to 
 fail. Differences in elavation, soil type, tempera- 
 ture, day length, and rainfall present other compli- 
 cations. Sometimes newly introduced plants prove 
 to be too aggressive and become weeds. Even if 
 all these problems are overcome, the plant will be 
 successful only if a market exists or can be cre- 
 ated.

 Results obtained from monitoring surface and 
 ground waters gave only a qualified answer to the 
 question of how to obtain some initial estimate of 
 the effects of different land use patterns on water 
 quality in the small watershed of South River. Agri- 
 cultural wastes come largely from manure pro- 
 duced by the nearly 1100 head of cattle on the 
 farms in the area, and from crop residues, and, to a 
 lesser extent, from fertilizers used. The houses of 
 residence, including those in Ashfield and Conway 
 centers, contribute most of the effluents from 
 septic tanks and considerable raw sewage directly 
 to the South River. Eight stations were located at 
 different places along the stream; water samples 
 from the river at each of these stations were taken 
 on a monthly basis for analysis. Low ground water 
 phosphate concentrations were always found in ly- 
 simeters located in an area of the watershed 
 where different soil management practices could 
 be studied. No evidence of leaching was found 
 from three field sites receiving moderate to some- 
 times heavy applications of manure and fertilizers.

 Twenty-six herbicides used alone or in combina- 
 tions were applied to African rue. The rate of appli- 
 cation of each herbicide was determined by the 
 recommended label rate. An exception was the 
 rate of diuron applied, which surpasses the recom- 
 mended label rate. Eight herbicides resulted in 
 control of at least 50 percent of the African rue 
 after a period of 7 1/2 months or longer. Tebuth- 
 iuron, Vel 5026 and diuron applied in July resulted 
 in the highest significant control 10 1/2 months 
 after treatment. Glyphosate, tebuthiuron, bromacil, 
 diuron, and Vel 5026 resulted in the highest signifi- 
 cant control of African rue with an October applica- 
 tion 7 1 12 months following treatment.

 A three year research program is described that 
 has tested whether agricultural by-products can be 
 inexpensively converted into fungal materials sim- 
 ulating the micro-bial-detrital complexes naturally 
 eaten by several estuarine animals of commercial 
 food value, including penaeid shrimp. If successful, 
 a low-price feed could be developed to enhance 
 commercial productivity of the shrimp. Fungal fer- 
 mentations of agricultural by-products were con- 
 ducted and attempts were made to optimize fungal 
 protein production. Resultant artificial detrital 
 feeds were tested on a proto-commercial scale in 
 outgrowth of penaeid shrimp. Yields of shrimp 
 ranged from very poor to encouragingly high, con- 
 sidering conditions imposed. Screening was begun 
 of fungal capability to degrade the least expensive 
 types of agricultural by-products, when these were 
 modified to reduce lignin-associated refractori- 
 ness. /

 People who become involved in activities requiring 
 exposure to pesticides should be aware of the po- 
 tential hazards involved as a result of absorption of 
 toxic compounds. If a person is knowledgeable 
 about such hazards and understands the impor- 
 tance of taking proper precautions, he can do 
 much to insure the safety of himself and others. 
 Although illnesses resulting from over-exposure to 
 toxic compounds do occur among applicators and 
 other workers, most are a result of carelessness or 
 accident. Experience has shown that if proper pre- 
 cautionary measures are observed and directions 
 on the pesticide label are followed, even the more 
 toxic compounds can be used safely. Exposure to 
 less toxic compounds should not be ignored.

 vide energy efficient buildings as well as a better 
 physical environment. The potential for energy 
 conservation by underground construction is great 
 because of the need for fuel conservation due to 
 depleting resources, and an increase in fuel con- 
 sumption. Topics include: Historical Perspectives; 
 Economics; Environmental Psychology; Energy 
 and Materials; Examples of Earth Covered Build- 
 ings; City Patterns; Political and Legal Consider- 
 ations; Technical Considerations. In addition, an

 A swine waste anaerobic digester receiving the 
 waste from 80 boars was operated for a period of 
 ten months. Digester mixing and nutrient removal 
 were accomplished by the recirculation of digester 
 gases through two stripping units. Phosphoric acid 
 was used to strip ammonia from the recirculated 
 gas stream. Caustic solutions, primarily lime, were 
 used to strip carbon dioxide. The removal of 
 carbon dioxide resulted in an elevation of digester 
 pH to 8.0. At the elevated pH ammonia was more 
 readily stripped. A system specific ammonia de- 
 sorption coefficient was determined which may be 
 used for selecting gas flow rates. The selection of 
 the proper gas flow rate can provide the required 
 degree of ammonia removal to reduce ammonia 
 concentrations to levels non-toxic to anaerobic 
 bacteria.

 The need of developing countries for developing 
 the industrial construction sector and obtaining 
 technical assistance to achieve this objective in 
 the fastest and most effective way is a well-known 
 fact. Though there is a big variety in the conditions 
 of various developing countries in different parts of 
 the world, certain common factors appear in 
 almost all cases. Many of these factors were char- 
 acteristic for Hungary in the past three decades, 
 and it can be helpful to see what could be used 
 from the Hungarian experience in this field.

 ticular importance to, the metallurgical industry, to- 
 gether with associated planning and policy issues, 
 marketing issues, and institutional arrangements. 
 The scope of this study is confined primarily to the 
 extraction and processing phases of the metals 
 cycle. Extraction includes all stages prior to metal 
 processing: mining, beneficiation of ores, reduc- 
 tion, smelting, and refining of the pure metals. 
 Processing includes alloying, heat treating, rolling, 
 casting, and fabrication. The role of small business 
 in metals recycling and substitution is also consid- 
 ered but with less emphasis. The approach of the 
 study combines literature review and letters of in- 
 quiry with personal interviews in the Washington, 
 D.C. area. Three broad areas were identified in 
 which small business is actively involved: high 
 technology, service companies, and secondary re- 
 covery. A list of the individuals and institutions con- 
 tacted is included in Appendix A, and a selected

 culture than ever before. The proceedings of this 
 international conference reveal a concern for the 
 continued adequacy of our food supply. The focus 
 is on the fundamental biological processes that 
 control productivity of economically important food 
 crops. The proceedings continue with the discus- 
 sions by four speakers on: 'World Productivity: 
 Challenges to Science', 'Rice Responds to Sci- 
 ence', 'Agricultural Productivity and World Nutri- 
 tion', and 'Shooting At A Moving Target'. The con- 
 ference work is conducted by six working groups. 
 
 They address issues involving: Nitrogen Input; 
 Carbon Input; Water, Soil, and Mineral Input; Plant 
 Protection From Pests; Environmental Stress; and

 The paper is about the possible effects on interna- 
 tional relations of certain new technologies of 
 communication, specifically: data communication 
 via computer networks, packet switching and sat- 
 ellites. Technology exists today that would, if used, 
 reduce the cost of global teletypewriter communi- 
 cation to levels approximately like the present 
 costs of the mails or of local telephoning. Such low 
 cost, high speed, long distance communication 
 facilities would if implemented profoundly modify 
 patterns of international interaction in business, 
 science, culture, and government. The report at- 
 tempts to outline, for the benefit of that Depart- 
 ment, some facts regarding the technology of low 
 cost transmission of text, and their implications. It 
 also outlines policy alternatives that the Depart- 
 ment should consider.

 On basis of a report in the literature, and a previous 
 study, it was postulated that unusually high popula- 
 tions of zooplankters might trigger oxygen deple- 
 tion in catfish production ponds. To investigate this 
 hypothesis, six ponds were stocked with fingerling 
 channel catfish at a rate of 74, 130 fish/ha. The 
 hybrid sunfish were added as zooplanktophagic 
 fish on the supposition that they would prevent the 
 development of a dense population of zooplankton 
 and the effect of this could be measured by chemi- 
 cal monitoring. The hybrid sunfish appeared to 
 have caused a change in the composition of the 
 zooplankton, but their presence did not prevent 
 oxygen from reaching critical levels. There is some 
 evidence that they did affect the oxygen regime of 
 the ponds, although not necessarily favorably. The 
 most valuable observation resulting from the study 
 related to oxygen production-consumption analy- 
 ses based on sunrise-sunset readings. In general, 
 it appeared impractical to stabilize oxygen in cat- 
 fish production ponds without resorting to artificial 
 oxygenation at selected times.

 tional development planning were begun both at 
 governmental and private levels. Visits to the Arab

 National Academy of Sciences and, independent- 
 ly, the creation of an intergovernmental U.S. -Egyp- 
 
 tian Joint Working Group on Technology, Re-

 convene a conference on the management of sci- 
 entific and technological research. The confer- 
 ence was to focus on science and technology 
 policy, planning, and research management; a 
 'workshop' format was chosen as the best method 
 to bring together a representative group of Egyp- 
 tian and American physical, natural, and social sci- 
 entists, economists, engineers, and development 
 planners. The two-day symposium provided ample 
 opportunity to contrast science and technology or- 
 ganization and planning in Egypt and the United 
 States to trace the influences of national scientific 
 and technological policies and programs on eco- 
 nomic development, and to examine relationships 
 between university teaching and research and na- 
 tional economic growth.

 There is a need for continuing emphasis on animal 
 research since animal products contribute about 
 half the nutrients in the US diet. Two-thirds of the 
 feed energy used in producing these products 
 come from inedible substances. Animal agriculture 
 utilizes large acreages of range and other land un- 
 suitable for crops for human consumption and 
 uses huge tonnages of by-products and wastes 
 that could be troublesome environmental pollut- 
 ants. Excess food grains can be used when they 
 are not needed for human consumption. Research 
 is needed to (1) optimize the number of productive 
 animal units, (2) increase food output per animal 
 unit, (3) develop low fossil-energy subsidy meth- 
 ods of livestock production, (4) develop new feed 
 resources, (5) improve animal product quality, and 
 (6) evaluate animal production and biological sys- 
 tems by simulation modelling and systems analy-

 tropolis. James Mansergh, an eminent sanitation 
 engineer from London, submitted eight alternative 
 schemes, five of which involved treatment by land. 
 Mansergh stated that the Werribee site was situ- 
 ated for land purification of sewage because it was 
 exceptionally dry and had an abnormally low rain- 
 fall compared with surrounding districts. His rec- 
 ommendation, based on proven success in Eng- 
 land, and on the benefit of irrigation in an area of 
 low rainfall, was for disposal by flood irrigation on 
 prepared land without prior treatment of the 
 sewage. Even today raw sewage is used at the 
 Werribee Farm. The Werribee Farm soil treatment 
 system is the outstanding project in Australia from 
 the standpoints of the lowest annual operating 
 costs, success, size and extent of experience with 
 the use of wastewater effluents.

 Cylindrical ferrocement tanks were subjected to in- 
 creasing internal water pressures to study the in- 
 fluence of the reinforcing parameters on their 
 cracking and leakage behavior. Based on the infor- 
 mation generated in this investigation, allowable 
 tensile stresses of about 30,000 psi in the steel are 
 recommended for the design of virtually watertight 
 ferrocement tanks. This allowable stress - which is 
 almost twice higher than that recommended by the 
 ACI Committee on reinforced concrete sanitary en- 
 gineering structures - is used in a cost comparison 
 study of water tanks made with ferrocement, rein- 
 forced concrete and steel. It is found that for cur- 
 rent U.S. prices, properly dimensioned and de- 
 signed ferrocement water tanks of up to 300,000 
 gallon capacity are cost competitive with rein- 
 forced concrete and steel tanks and would have at 
 least equal performance.

 This document presents an overview of a mecha- 
 nism which can be used to facilitate the exchange 
 of wastes, as is, from a generator to a user and its 
 possible role in state and areawide residuals plan- 
 ning efforts. The premise is that many wastes con- 
 tain valuable materials, some of which are in short 
 supply. Extraction of materials from these wastes 
 makes sense from both the conservational and the 
 environmental points of view. Industry can dispose 
 of its unwanted wastes and perhaps receive a 
 monetary bonus. The waste receiver can potential- 
 ly reduce costs for materials. In addition, the envi- 
 ronment is saved from the introduction of potential 
 pollutants from land and water disposal methods.

 Building response caused by moderate to severe 
 earthquake excitation is often in the inelastic 
 range; thus, to enable reliable predictions of over- 
 all performance, the energy absorption and failure 
 characteristics of individual components must be 
 established. For reinforced concrete frame build- 
 ings, the critical or yielding regions may occur in 
 either or both the girders and columns subjected to 
 various combinations of bending, shear, and axial 
 load. To determine the characteristics and modes 
 of failure of columns under excitations causing 
 degradations in stiffness, strength, and energy ab- 
 sorption, a series of twelve members simulating a 
 column between inflection points above and below 
 a floor level were designed and tested dynamical- 
 ly. The variable parameters introduced were (1) 
 magnitude of applied axial load chosen to repre- 
 sent lower, intermediate, and upper story columns, 
 
 (2) lateral reinforcement percentage chosen to 
 study the influence of confinement on ductility, and 
 
 (3) history of controlled lateral displacement 
 chosen to determine the effects of rate and se- 
 quence loading.

 Preliminary designs for wind-energy conversion 
 systems supplying the total energy needs of se- 
 lected farms and a rural home are synthesized. 
 The concept is a fully dedicated system whose 
 components and subsystems are off-the-shelf 
 technology. The principal subsystems and compo- 
 
 nents are: (1) input (wind turbine, electrolyzer, and 
 rectifiers); (2) storage (batteries, and storage tanks 
 of hydrogen and hot water); and (3) output (invert- 
 er, motor generator, engine generator, and fuel 
 cell). Two methods of energy storage are evaluat- 
 ed for use and subsequently form the bases upon 
 which each design is optimized. It is shown that 
 wind-energy systems based on battery-storage 
 systems are: (1) simpler to construct and maintain; 
 (2) more efficient; and (3) less expensive than 
 those based on hydrogen-storage systems. Fur- 
 ther, the relative economics of each wind-energy 
 system are heavily dependent on wind availability, 
 number of days of energy storage required, and 
 the match between the wind energy available and 
 the energy requirement of the load. Of all the 
 energy requirements characterized, the cash grain 
 operation is shown to be the least adaptable to 
 wind-energy systems.

 Effective and efficient wastewater treatment is a 
 function of both the quality of treatment and the 
 cost of treatment. Although the actual quality and 
 cost of treatment cannot be known until after a 
 plant is in operation, estimates of both are needed 
 at various times during the process of planning and 
 designing a wastewater treatment system. The

 The report gives results of an experimental investi- 
 gation of the operating parameters for a mobile 
 waste conversion system based on the Georgia 
 Tech Engineering Experiment Station's partial oxi- 
 dation pyrolysis process. The object of the testing 
 was to determine the combination of parameters 
 producing the most char and oil and the least gas 
 from agricultural and forestry wastes. The test indi- 
 cated both the dominant influence of air/feed on 
 char and oil yields, and the desirability of low 
 values of this ratio. In addition to the testing, a pre- 
 liminary design of a 200 ton/day mobile pyrolysis 
 system for conversion of agricultural and forestry 
 wastes into clean fuels was made and a simplified 
 economic analysis conducted. The results of this 
 work indicate the technical feasibility and the eco- 
 nomic profitability of such a system.

 Alaska. Central community facilities have been 
 constructed in the native villages of Emmonak and 
 Wainwright to provide a safe water supply; toilets, 
 bathing and laundry facilities; and sewage and 
 waste disposal. The idea of coming to a communi- 
 ty center to secure water, to do the laundry, and to 
 bathe has proven acceptable to the people of 
 Wainwright and Emmonak. However, Alaskan 
 native villages generally can not pay, through serv- 
 ice charges, the full cost of routine operation and 
 maintenance of water-related utilities, especially 
 where complex treatment is required to meet 
 waste treatment standards. The physical-chemical 
 wastewater treatment provided required consider- 
 able modification and detailed operator attention 
 to provide consistent secondary treatment.

 combinations of retention time, primary effluent, 
 secondary effluent, basin shape, and depth of 
 planting medium were studied. A polluted natural 
 marsh was studied simultaneously. The degree of 
 improvement in water quality suggests that the 
 process may be acceptable for certain treatment

 receive and digest the effluents from sewage puri- 
 fication plants. Emphasis is on the biological as- 
 pects. Data indicates that slowly moving water is 
 able to digest and highly purify effluents in large 
 volume with the first three-fourths of a mile. The 
 process of digestion is almost wholly biological 
 and is extremely sensitive to conditions such as 
 temperature, rainfall, and the amount and charac- 
 ter of plant and animal life.

 The two major problems in culturing crayfish in 
 ponds are low dissolved oxygen and overcrowd- 
 ing. This paper discusses general field observa- 
 tions of pond failures and suggests solutions. Poor 
 water quality is attributed to one or more of the fol- 
 lowing: Source water of poor quality; pond heavily 
 grown over with terrestrial vegetation at time of 
 flooding; other farm crops occupy the time of the 
 crayfish farmer and poor water circulation in 
 ponds. Two major reasons for overcrowding are 
 that not enough food is available and there is inad- 
 equate harvest. Inadequate harvesting results 
 from: not enough traps used; not harvesting daily; 
 high cost of bait; an abundant supply of wild cray- 
 fish; and other farm duties.

 This report provides a summary of the state of the 
 art of alternative technologies frequently suggest- 
 ed as solutions to rural or individual-family energy 
 needs. Moreover, it informs both the technologist 
 and the planner where to go for more detailed in- 
 formation and what kinds of research and develop- 
 ment are needed before a particular device or 
 process is ready for use.

 This report was written to aid a community in se- 
 lecting an energy recovery solid waste disposal 
 system that best fits their needs. The choice of an 
 appropriate conversion process for energy recov- 
 ery is highly sensitive to each local situation. A criti- 
 cal factor to be considered in the selection of any 
 conversion process is the economic aspect of 
 each system. A discussion of the economic factors

 The purpose of this study was to assess the social 
 and economic values of the Caroni Swamp as of 
 1974 and to generate more attention and wider 
 public interest in one of Trinidad and Tobago's 
 most beautiful landscapes. The study finds that 
 various unmet need states such as temporary 
 escape, experiencing nature, intellectual stimula- 
 tion, affiliation, achievement and physical exercise 
 are gratified by a visit to the Swamp. Over 90% of 
 the visitors thought it worthy of preservation. The 
 study estimates the recreational resources of the 
 Swamp at $1 ,038,500 and the number of persons 
 earning a living at 240 full-time and 105 part-time. 
 It estimates the fin and shell fish harvest and value 
 at 1,589,170 lbs. and $981,450 and based on a 
 total annual return of $2,020,020, calculates the 
 present worth of the Swamp at $4,000 per acre. 
 
 The study concludes that the Swamp, though ne- 
 glected, has many social and economic values 
 beyond tourism.

 tribally owned processing plant. Along with the 
 training of personnel to operate the plant, the plant 
 seeks to establish accounting, inventory and pro- 
 duction systems. The benefits of the plant would 
 be three fold. First, the plant would insure that fish- 
 ermen would receive a fair price for their catch. 
 Second, employment for tribal members on the 
 reservation would be created and third, the sea- 
 food processing plant would have the potential of 
 earning sufficient revenues to be used for the de- 
 velopment of additional business and jobs.

 The workshop brought together engineers, scien- 
 tists, administrators, and businessmen and gave 
 them the opportunity to exchange views on, and 
 experience with, ferrocement. The workshop's 
 basic purposes were: (1) to survey both the state 
 of the art of ferrocement technology and its appli- 
 cations important to Southeast Asia; (2) to provide 
 information on ferrocement research and develop- 
 ment taking place in Asia and to share the knowl- 
 edge and experience gained thus far; (3) to dis- 
 cuss the most promising methods of introducing 
 ferrocement technology to Asia from the point of 
 view of effectiveness, cost, and social acceptabil- 
 ity; (4) to recommend areas of technical and social 
 research that need to be carried further with re- 
 
 spect to ferrocement. Demonstrations of ferroce- 
 ment construction were held during the workshop. 
 Fifty five participants from 17 nations attended. Im- 
 mediately following the workshop, a demonstration 
 for the benefit of some 50 village heads from sev- 
 eral districts in Pathumtani province was held.

 Research has continued during the past Sea Grant 
 fiscal year on the development, testing, and evalu- 
 ation of a combined waste recycling-marine poly- 
 culture system. The concept of the system is to 
 grow unicellular marine algae (Phytoplankton) in 
 mixtures of seawater and the effluent from a sec- 
 ondary sewage treatment plant. The algae grown 
 in continuous flow-through cultures, are then fed to 
 bivalve molluscs, such as oysters, clams, scallops, 
 or mussels. The algae remove the nutrients from 
 the wastewater and the molluscs remove the 
 algae. Finfish (winter flounder) and Crustacea 
 (American Lobster) are stocked as post-larval or 
 juvenile animals together with the molluscs to feed 
 upon the solid wastes (feces and pseudo feces) 
 produced by the shellfish and upon the small inver- 
 tebrate fauna (polychaete worms, amphipods, 
 etc.) that are supported by these wastes. Sea- 
 weeds constitute a final polishing stage to the 
 system, receiving the effluent from the animal cul- 
 ture system and removing from it nutrients regen- 
 erated through excretion and metabolism of the 
 animals as well as any nutrients from the 
 wastewater not initially removed by the phyto- 
 plankton. Twelve reports by various authors are 
 compiled in this volume.

 This study examines systems of transferring 
 marine technology through education and training 
 and suggests solutions to the problems that have 
 been the cause of failure in the process. In so 
 doing, the nature of the educational institutions, 
 both in the industrialized nations and in those de- 
 veloping nations where they exist have been re- 
 viewed. Inadequacies have been identified at both 
 levels; inadequacies that stem not only from the 
 educational systems but also concerning govern- 
 ment involvement as well as social attitudes. This 
 problem identification is followed by suggested so- 
 lutions for each case and in some instances such 
 suggestions are supported and substantiated with 
 descriptions of cases where success or at least 
 potential for success have been achieved.

 tional Research Council, a joint agency of the Na- 
 tional Academy of Sciences, the National Acade-

 The report was requested by the Agency for Inter- 
 national Development. The panel responsible for 
 the report was composed of educators from engi- 
 neering schools in the United States and develop- 
 ing countries, along with one engineer from an in- 
 ternational technical assistance agency. Together 
 they represent a cross section of engineering dis- 
 ciplines. The project was designed to obtain in- 
 formed judgments of panelists on the future role of 
 U.S. engineering institutions in assisting develop- 
 ing nations. It was not intended to be a formal re- 
 search exercise. The report is based upon delib- 
 erations of the panel in September 1 973, January 
 1974, and June 1975, and upon subsequent dis- 
 cussions by members of the panel. Preliminary 
 work had been done by another panel during 
 1971-72.

 The rural millwright of colonial or early 1 9th-cen- 
 tury America derived much of his technical infor- 
 mation from sources very unlike the engineering 
 texts of today. At best, he followed manuals which 
 relied heavily upon 'rule-of-thumb' procedures. At 
 worst, he used only his own experience as a guide. 
 The results of such irregular information flow in a 
 fairly technical craft have seldom been considered. 
 The Upper Factory Brook Sawmill Site, an early 
 19th-century mill, was constructed by men relying 
 on 'folk' knowledge, and exhibits several major 
 flaws in its construction. These flaws demonstrate 
 the problems resulting from an incomplete 'mental 
 template' of a complex mechanism due to the in- 
 correct or incomplete 'folk' knowledge of the build- 
 ers, and indicate one of the effects of poor com- 
 munication during a period of general technologi- 
 cal advancement.

 The purpose of this unit is to help the student 
 reach a real understanding of how a person's 
 habits determine his health. Through a step-by- 
 step learning procedure, this unit is designed to 
 present the knowledge necessary to gain this un- 
 derstanding in a logical progression. The child 
 should be educated about these diseases so that 
 in the end he will understand (1) that these dis- 
 eases are important to know about; (2) that a cer- 
 tain few things are spreading them; (3) that these 
 diseases can be prevented; (4) that each person is 
 responsible for the state of his own health. All 
 these diseases are prevalent in the Philippines, 
 and they are here mainly because most people 
 simply do not know about them and how they are 
 spread and how serious they are. It has been 
 found that if this unit is well taught in the school, it 
 can generate effects which will result in the im- 
 provement of health and sanitation practices in the 
 community.

 The 'start-up' industry training concept has re- 
 ceived considerable attention as a way to better 
 match workers and jobs, to 'leapfrog' the industrial 
 development process by attracting higher-wage in-

 forces, and to make it possible to increase the 
 wages of low-income workers. This study exam-

 frogging of the unemployed and underemployed

 The marine animals, abalone, clams, scallops, 
 squid, and shrimp, are all important marine re- 
 sources; and because of this, they require careful 
 management for optimal utilization. In order to de- 
 termine the best management strategies, it is nec- 
 essary to understand the research that has been 
 done both in the U.S. and abroad. This report was 
 prepared to indicate the extent of the literature on 
 each of these animals, and special emphasis has 
 been placed on the literature from Japan. This list- 
 ing should make it possible to determine whether 
 the preparation of up-to-date review papers would 
 be beneficial. The references are organized by 
 topic; under each topic the references are listed in 
 alphabetical order by author.

 Techniques for learning the sounds and structures 
 of a language, especially unwritten, from native 
 speakers of the language, usually pedagogically 
 unskilled and often unlettered, have long been part 
 of modern descriptive linguistics. But the Peace 
 Corps has only recently recognized their value. 
 Their purpose is to allow PCVs to: (1 ) Continue lan- 
 guage learning in the field without trained teach- 
 ers; (2) avoid the pitfall of talking about language 
 through involved grammatical discourse with local 
 'scholars'; (3) develop their own materials concen- 
 trating on problems peculiar to their dialect area 
 and job when texts, especially drills and exercises, 
 are unavailable; and (4) create varied and interest- 
 ing learning sessions for both Volunteer and in- 
 formant.

 The impact of secondary-treated effluents from 
 the Wahiawa and Whitmore Sewage Treatment 
 Plants on the Wahiawa Reservoir, Oahu, was in- 
 vestigated in terms of water and sediment quality, 
 algal growth potential, and fish toxicity. Reservoir 
 and waste water management alternatives were 
 investigated based on these environmental inputs 
 and preliminary estimates of costs and benefits of 
 the alternatives. Nitrogen and phosphorus result- 
 ing from the discharges were determined to be re- 
 sponsible for seasonal stresses on both the water 
 quality and fishes. The two most feasible alterna- 
 tives for improving the situation were reuse of sec- 
 ondary effluent for sugarcane irrigation and sea- 
 sonal tertiary waste water treatment with the latter 
 being the more favored of the two.

 This workshop was held to study further research 
 methodologies for investigations of the interrela- 
 tionships of energy, food, man and environment. 
 The report from Phase I Workshop held June 18- 
 19, 1974, was the prime focus of Phase II work- 
 shop. Workshop participants generally concluded 
 that energy accounting aimed at energy and food 
 production technologies is best accomplished by a 
 form of process analysis. Crop output measured in 
 the form of Kilocalories (Kcal) can be compared 
 effectively by computing the energy inputs for each 
 crop production process. Separate accounting for 
 energy, labor, and land should be practiced, be- 
 cause within limits each of these factors can be 
 substituted for the other. Increased energy used 
 for both machinery construction and operating fuel 
 can be substituted for labor, and energy used for 
 increasing production per acre (fertilizer) can be 
 substituted for land.

 Several small-scale private commercial and family 
 operated prawn hatcheries have been established 
 in Thailand to fill the demand for juveniles for cul- 
 ture, and the objective of this paper is to describe 
 and comment on the practical operation and eco- 
 nomic experience of two such commercial hatch- 
 eries so as to give those interested in the industry 
 and potential prawn culturists some practical in- 
 sights into the requirements, potentials and prob- 
 lems of hatchery operation. The paper takes the 
 form of a case study with commentary and sugges- 
 tions for improvement. It is divided into three sec- 
 tions; (1) actual technical description of each 
 hatchery's operation, (2) economic analysis and 
 (3) discussion and concluding observations.

 The catfish species Clarias batrachus and Clarias

 land. The two species make up almost 30% of 
 Thailand's fresh-water production with C. batra- 
 
 chus (Pla duk dan) accounting for about 90% of 
 that amount. Demand for both of these fish is very 
 strong and growing rapidly despite their high price. 
 C. macrocephalus is the preferred species for its 
 appearance and eating qualities and commands a 
 higher price particularly in what appears to be a 
 lucrative export market. The report describes re- 
 search on production, consumption, and econom-

 There is an increasing recognition and acceptance 
 of the concept that development activities and ef- 
 forts in the less developed countries of the world 
 must be directed to the improvement of the 
 income, security and standard of living of small 
 low-income farmers, who constitute the vast bulk 
 of the population of these countries. The practice 
 of simple types of small-scale aquaculture offers 
 excellent possibilities, particularly in Asia and the 
 Far East, for helping to achieve the goals of diver- 
 sification, increased cash incomes, improved 
 quantity and quality of food produced for home 
 consumption, and exploitation of un-utilized re- 
 sources currently available to small farmers. Aqua- 
 culture is not new to the region, but it is not always 
 recognized that its practice can be, and often is an 
 integrated and natural part of the agricultural 
 system with wide-spread involvement of small 
 farmers. Just as most small farmers keep a few 
 ducks and chickens to supplement their tables and 
 their incomes, many more of them could operate a 
 small managed fish pond.

 The Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amend- 
 ments of 1972 require the Administrator of the En- 
 vironmental Protection Agency to publish criteria 
 for water quality accurately reflecting the latest sci- 
 entific knowledge on the kind and extent of all 
 identifiable effects on health and welfare which 
 may be expected from the presence of pollutants 
 in any body of water, including ground water. Pro- 
 posed Water Quality Criteria were developed and a 
 notice of their availability was published on Oct 26, 
 1973 (38 FR 29646). This present volume repre- 
 sents a revision of the proposed water quality crite- 
 ria based upon a consideration of comments re- 
 ceived from other Federal agencies, State agen- 
 cies, special interest groups and individual scien- 
 tists. Standards and their criteria are given for over 
 54 chemicals.

 vestigate the potential uses of the pyrolysis by- 
 products. A pyrolysis machine of semi-continuous 
 feed capabilities was designed and built. Various 
 conditions of pyrolysis treatments were investigat- 
 ed and their influence on the amount and composi- 
 tion of the by-products determined. High carbon 
 residues were found to require lower pyrolysis tem- 
 peratures. The carbon content of these residues 
 appeared to be unaffected by the geographic loca- 
 tion of the original manure. Contact with interested 
 parties and appropriate industries who could be 
 prospective users of each of the products was initi- 
 ated to obtain their technical expertise in evaluat- 
 ing these products. The pyrolysis by-products 
 seem to have some potential industrial applica- 
 tions. These by-products include the solid residue, 
 an oil fraction, and an aqueous fraction. The solid 
 residue may serve as a carbon black substitute or 
 as a filler material in rubber, ink, and paint. The 
 aqueous fraction collected during pyrolysis has 
 been evaluated for fertilizer applications.

 The report estimates the biological productivity of 
 industrial renewable resources in terms of current 
 yields, existing land bases, and increments to 
 these bases that may reasonably be forecast by 
 1985 and 2000. The forecast divides naturally into 
 two parts: the silvicultural product of wood, and 
 products for industry from agriculture consisting 
 chiefly of vegetable fibers, oil seeds, wool, animal 
 fats, tallows, and hides. Wood is not only by far the 
 most important renewable resource used for in- 
 dustrial materials, but also one whose production 
 can be greatly increased if needed. Agricultural 
 products include cotton and other vegetable fibers. 
 Furthermore, there is little reason to believe that 
 market demand will strain biological potential by 
 1985 or 2000. Under these conditions, long-term 
 estimates of productivity become a mere exercise 
 in imagination. Consideration is made of the 
 energy requirements and environmental impacts 
 associated with the implementation of the recom- 
 mendations on these renewable resources.

 The study gives an analysis of a proposed beef 
 packing plant with respect to markets and raw ma- 
 terial supplies. The plant would be situated in an 
 area of large surpluses of both livestock feed and 
 calf supplies. It would be necessary to tie the pack- 
 ing plant to a feedlot. Ownership of both enter- 
 prises was to be integrated and the purpose of the 
 feedyard was to even slaughter cattle supplies to 
 the packing plant. Both locker-type plants and 
 commercial plants are to be constructed. The 
 Blackfeet Tribe in searching for development pos- 
 sibilities for their tribally controlled acres on the 
 Reservation proposes to investigate the establish- 
 ment of a beef packing plant.

 The feasibility of growing Macrobrachium rosen-

 in South Carolina. Results of 1974 and 1975 pond 
 studies indicate a favorable outlook for eventual 
 commercial production. Excellent growth and sur- 
 vival rates were obtained under conditions which 
 were considered marginal at times. Considerable 
 production was achieved even when newly meta- 
 morphosed postlarvae were stocked into ponds. 
 However, increased production and greater final 
 prawn size resulted when larger juveniles were 
 stocked. Higher yields are anticipated from more 
 suitable ponds and as better pond management 
 techniques are developed and applied.

 This report is in three parts. The Introduction cata- 
 logues the necessary components of a theory of 
 the design of jobs and organizations. Part I of the 
 report presents the job analytic system in detail. To 
 maximize the transferability it is in the form of an 
 ordered series of questions. When applied to a job 
 situation, in total, the results will be the complete 
 analysis of that situation, including the description 
 of the jobs as they exist, the evaluation of the per- 
 formance of workers in those jobs, the assess- 
 ment of the adequacy of the jobs as structured, the 
 assessment of the relations between those jobs 
 and the adequacy of those relations within the or- 
 ganization, and finally, the generation of all the 
 possible changes in the jobs with their anticipated 
 outcomes, problems, etc. Part II of the report con- 
 trasts the advantages of this system with the dis- 
 advantages of previous efforts. With respect to the 
 
 latter, two bodies of research and theory are re- 
 viewed exhaustively: job design, including job en- 
 richment, job development, etc.; and job analysis. 
 Part II can be read as a self-contained critical 
 review of work in this area.

 This report examines methods for controlling 
 aquatic weeds and using them to best advantage, 
 especially those methods that show promise for 
 less-developed countries. It emphasizes tech- 
 niques for converting weeds for feed, food, fertiliz- 
 er, and energy production. It examines, for exam- 
 ple, biological control techniques in which herbivo- 
 rous tropical animals (fish, waterfowl, rodents, and 
 other mammals) convert the troublesome plants 
 directly to meat. Though the techniques described 
 in this report have been selected for their applica- 
 bility in less-developed countries, many are rele- 
 vant to industrialized countries. Both types of 
 country face a future in which food production will 
 need to depend more and more on the effective 
 management of natural systems, such as water- 
 ways.

 The feasibility of sludge disposal, from a fruit proc-

 by dewatering and using the dewatered biological 
 sludge solids as cattle feed was evaluated by Sno- 
 kist Growers at Yakima, Washington. Dewatering 
 of the biological sludge utilizing pilot-scale and pro-

 sistently dewatering to 7-1/2% to 9% dry solids.

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 Digestibility and metabolizability of rations contain- 
 ing 2.3% and 4.5% biological solids appeared 
 equal to a control ration, but a ration containing 
 9.2% biological solids appeared lower. Twenty- 
 four uniform yearling steers were divided into four 
 lots of six each and finish fed a control ration and 
 rations containing 2.3%, 4.6%, and 8.9% sludge 
 solids on a dry matter basis for 1 65 days. They did 
 not show any adverse effects of the sludge incor- 
 poration into their rations. It appeared that a low 
 quantity of sludge (2.3% dry solids) actually en- 
 hanced the weight gain performance and carcass 
 quality of these animals. The cost of a dewatering 
 installation will require that the canney receive re- 
 muneration for use of the waste activated sludge 
 as cattle feed in order to make a full-scale dewa- 
 tering project feasible. The calculated value of the 
 biological solids incorporated into the rations was 
 in the range of $0,092 to $0,148 per kg dry solids.

 The purpose of this report was to explore the eco- 
 nomic feasibility of establishing processing facili- 
 ties for oil-type sunflowers in North Dakota. A 
 broad set of topics was covered because produc- 
 tion, processing and marketing of sunflowers and 
 sunflower products in the U.S. are relatively recent. 
 Historical sunflower production patterns were pre- 
 sented, together with two estimates of future pro- 
 duction. One estimate was based on an attitudinal 
 survey of farmers and a second on a maximum 
 long-run projection for North Dakota. The supply of 
 whole seed sunflowers from current and the two 
 projections was related to processing require- 
 ments for each of the four plant sizes. The eco- 
 nomic impact of each of the model sunflower proc- 
 essing plants on multicounty regions in which they 
 might locate was estimated for the construction 
 and operational phases.

 Experiments to determine commercial feasibility of 
 mangrove oyster culture in Puerto Rico have been 
 underway since early 1973. Most of the work has 
 been carried out in Rincon Lagoon, a rich man- 
 grove-lined estuary subject to periodic salinity fluc- 
 tuations. The bulk of commercial oyster harvesting 
 on the island is presently carried out in this lagoon. 
 A revised method of cultching, consisting of 46 x 
 71 cm frames suspended from rafts, was used. 
 The frames, utilizing several materials such as 
 concrete-coated plywood and plastic sheeting 
 showed sustained mean growth rates of 0.7 mm 
 per day, with maximum individual rates of 1 .4 mm 
 per day. A program monitoring spatfall, salinity, 
 and temperature was carried out in an effort to de- 
 termine the timing of natural spatfall in the lagoon. 
 It appeared that spatfall closely followed drops in 
 salinity.

 The testing of soil insecticides for efficacy is ex-

 fore, an attempt has been made to pull together 
 some test methods for major pests on a few com-

 vegetables, sugarbeets, peanuts and tobacco. It 
 would be impossible to cover all pests that might 
 require soil insecticides under each of the com-

 Since 1961 Peace Corps volunteers have worked 
 at the grass roots level in developing countries to 
 help peoples to use new ideas that utilize locally 
 available resources. One approach that has 
 proven effective is the photonovel, in which a 
 series of pictures outlines a step by step process 
 to achieve a community goal. In each picture a 
 white 'balloon' contains dialogue and indicates the 
 speaker. The photonovel has achieved results 
 where other media have failed. The present mate-

 This document presents the background, goals, 
 procedures and results of a project to develop im- 
 proved design criteria that would make low-rise 
 buildings in developing countries better able to 
 withstand the effects of extreme winds. The proj- 
 ect stemmed from the belief that additional re- 
 search on wind was needed to reduce loss of life 
 and property, human suffering, disruption of pro- 
 ductive capacity and costs of disaster relief. The 3 
 1 12 year project began in early 1973 and produced 
 these results: the development of improved design 
 criteria; a methodology for the estimation of ex- 
 treme wind speeds; the development of wind 
 tunnel modeling techniques; a heightened aware- 
 ness of the wind problem and the need to guard 
 against it; the emergence of useful working rela- 
 tionships between NBS/AID and public and private 
 decision makers in developing countries subject to 
 extreme winds, especially the Philippines, Jamaica 
 and Bangladesh; and the documentation of impor- 
 tant information in the areas of wind design speeds 
 and pressure coefficients, economic forecasting, 
 socio-economic and architectural concerns, and 
 construction detailing practices. Also during the 
 project, a program began in the training of profes- 
 sionals and technicians in developing countries to 
 carry out wind measurements and analyses. In ad- 
 dition, methods to ensure transfer of information to 
 user groups were employed.

 This paper briefly describes some of the more 
 common flow mechanisms which create wind 
 pressures on low-rise buildings and the effects of 
 building geometry on these pressures. It is as- 
 sumed that the basic wind speeds are known and 
 a procedure is outlined for calculating design wind 
 speeds which incorporates the expected life of the 
 structure, the mean recurrence interval, and the 
 wind speed averaging time. Pressure coefficients 
 are tabulated for various height-to-width ratios and 
 roof slopes. The steps required to calculate pres- 
 sures and total drag and uplift forces are summa- 
 rized and an illustrative example is presented.

 This report investigates the use of connectors for 
 masonry and timber elements in low-rise buildings. 
 Connector characteristics and construction details 
 that improve a building's response to extreme wind 
 effects are given primary emphasis. Recommen- 
 dations include improvements through better utili- 
 zation of connector technology showing good 
 feasibility of introduction in developing countries. 
 The building systems considered in this study fall 
 within the low to moderate cost category.

 The Agency for International Development spon- 
 sored with the NBS, a 3 1/2 year research project 
 to develop improved design criteria for low-rise 
 buildings to better resist the effects of extreme 
 winds. Housing is probably the single most impor- 
 tant consumer good in most economies. Measur- 
 ing the size of a region's unmet housing need is a 
 first step to planning and implementing improve- 
 ments in housing conditions. This report analyzes 
 the concept of housing needs in an economic 
 framework. A methodology for estimating and pro- 
 jecting housing needs at the regional level is devel- 
 oped. The methodology attempts to make explicit 
 the income redistribution intent which is the core 
 meaning behind the concept of housing needs. 
 Project results are presented in five volumes. 
 Volume 1 gives an overview of the research activi- 
 ties, accomplishments, results and recommenda- 
 tions. Volume 2 presents a methodology to esti- 
 mate design wind speeds and a guide to determine 
 wind forces. Volume 3 discusses a guide for im- 
 proved use of masonry fasteners and timber con- 
 nectors. Volume 4 furnishes a methodology to esti- 
 mate and forecast housing needs at a regional 
 level. Socio-economic and architectural consider- 
 ations of the Philippines, Jamaica and Bangladesh 
 are presented in Volume 5.

 Typical socio-economic conditions in the Philip- 
 pines, Jamaica, and Bangladesh are identified. 
 These conditions include strong respect for tradi- 
 tional materials and methods of house construc- 
 tion, and suspicion of innovative forms and ap- 
 proaches; a rising proportion of urban poor who 
 live in squatter settlements; and a rising ratio of 
 inhabitants whose incomes are at a level where 
 they cannot afford housing of any kind. The impor- 
 tance of land from a social standpoint is stressed. 
 The report reviews the sites and services concept 
 whereby low income persons are provided a site 
 equipped with basic utilities but must erect and 
 maintain a house upon it. Recommendations in- 
 clude: placement of buildings to exploit terrain; ad- 
 herence to good practices in the configurations of 
 the main elements of a house (these are shown by 
 means of simple drawings); and use of cheap, 
 strong and locally available materials.

 The purpose was to determine whether Russian 
 thistle (Salsola spp.) might have potential as either 
 a protein source or a forage under conditions of 
 restricted water. Salsola was chosen because it 
 was reported to be a C4 plant which is efficient in 
 water use, drought resistant, salt tolerant and be- 
 cause it had been used as a feed previously. 
 These results compare favorably with alfalfa, 
 which is the most widely grown forage in New 
 Mexico.

 Although chitin and derivatives of chitin have been 
 studied for many years and their intriguing chemi- 
 cal properties have been known, commercial utili- 
 zation has been almost nonexistent. This study 
 was designed to address the industrial prospects 
 for utilization of chitin. A business strategy involv- 
 ing both chitin and protein from shellfish has been 
 developed and evaluated. The strategy appears to 
 offer a rational and profitable way to resolve the 
 dilemma by treating chitin as a by-product of a pro- 
 tein recovery process that, in some cases, may be 
 profitable even in the complete absence of any 
 markets for the chitin. This strategy should assure 
 availability of dried shell waste in sufficient quanti- 
 ties to make possible production of chitin in 
 amounts needed to supply initial markets. Likely 
 markets are proposed based on an extensive anal- 
 ysis of the literature of chitin applications and mar- 
 kets for similar chemicals.

 new) and masonry chimneys have exhibited poor 
 performance. Available data has been found to be

 Rapid expansion of the Spanish leather-goods in- 
 dustry has created a serious problem of pollution 
 from tannery effluents. The use of chrome (wet- 
 blue) leather in Spanish tanneries would reduce 
 the pollution caused by cleaning and dehairing of 
 conventional salt-cured hides. It would also reduce 
 the number of workers required in tannery beam- 
 houses, where cleaning occurs. Responding to a 
 1976 survey, tanners who produced about 80 per- 
 cent of Spain's finished leather output said they 
 would increase imports of blue chrome leather pro- 
 vided uniform grades and standards could be es- 
 tablished to reduce the variability of quality. Tan- 
 ners estimated that elimination of the beam-house 
 operation might reduce hide finishing costs by 15 
 
 percent, and thus most would not be willing to pay 
 more than 15-percent price premium for wet-blue 
 hides. The tanners also indicated that if pollution 
 laws were enforced, they would be more willing to 
 substitute blue chrome for salt-cured hides since 
 this substitution would reduce the beamhouse op- 
 eration. Any change in demand for blue chrome 
 hides would affect the United States, which sup- 
 plies about one-fifth of Spain's hide imports.

 Following the passage on December 16, 1974, of 
 Public Law 93-523, The Safe Drinking Water Act, 
 the Interim Primary Drinking Water Regulations 
 were promulgated on December 24, 1975, to take 
 effect June 24, 1977. These regulations set Maxi- 
 mum Contaminant Levels (MCL) for ten inorganic 
 constituents, turbidity, coliform organisms, six pes- 
 ticides and radionuclides. PL-93-523 stated that 
 the Primary Drinking Water Regulations should 
 consist of MCLs as well as a statement of treat- 
 ment technology that could be used to achieve 
 these levels. This document provides that informa- 
 tion. It contains five sections as related to the five 
 groups of Interim Primary Drinking Water Regula- 
 tions noted above. This document, based on the 
 literature and the research being conducted by the 
 Water Supply Research Division, is not meant to 
 stifle innovative treatment technology. It attempts 
 to be a statement of technology known at the time 
 of the effective date of the Interim Primary Drinking 
 Water Regulations that will allow utilities, with as- 
 sistance from their consulting engineers, to apply 
 whatever treatment might be necessary to improve 
 
 their drinking water quality such that it meets the 
 Interim Primary Drinking Water Regulations.

 In West Africa the rice processing technologies 
 range from traditional hand pounding to large me- 
 chanical mills. Because these technologies have 
 varying factor intensities and output efficiencies 
 the choice of technology in any country will have 
 important effects on factor utilization, particularly 
 employment, and on output. In Sierra Leone the 
 government is currently considering whether in- 
 vestment should be directed to rehabilitation of 
 three existing large mills, purchase of new large 
 mills or encouragement of private investment in 
 small mills including the location of these mills. 
 The specific objectives of this study are: To de- 
 scribe and analyze the traditional and modern 
 techniques of processing rice in Sierra Leone; and 
 to develop a methodology to analyze the employ- 
 ment and income effects of policies.

 Disposal of wastewater from isolated homes in 
 mountainous and rural locations in Colorado pre- 
 sents unique and difficult problems. The purpose 
 of the study was to evaluate the flow and pollution 
 patterns from individual homes and to evaluate ex- 
 isting and potential treatment methods. Field eval- 
 uation of home wastewater flow and pollutional 
 characteristics was accomplished. The average 
 per capita water use in the home was 44.4 gallons 
 per day and *he waste strength was 0.11 pounds 
 per capita p^r day of BOD. Data for individual fix- 
 tures and appliances were obtained with measure- 
 ment of many pollutional parameters. A brief eval- 
 uation of the home treatment methods was ac- 
 complished. Laboratory bench scale studies were 
 made to evaluate methods for treatment of the 
 soap related wastes in the home for reuse as toilet 
 flushing water.

 Experimental rock and soil strata for collection, fil-

 were constructed on three separate Indian Reser- 
 vations: Ramah Navajo, Santa Clara Pueblo in 
 New Mexico, and the Pine Ridge (Oglala Sioux) in 
 South Dakota. The artificial spring strata were con- 
 structed to determine their potential in the devel- 
 opment and use of Indian and other lands located 
 in the arid and semi-arid sections of the country 
 where the availability of adequate water supplies 
 for domestic use, for watering livestock in other- 
 wise suitable grazing areas, and for the production 
 of food crops is either severely limited as surface 
 water, or the groundwater is non-existent, exces- 
 sively saline, or at very great depths. The principle 
 objective was to provide a reliable source of pota- 
 ble water at a relatively low cost. The most impor- 
 tant factors in the construction of the experimental 
 strata were site location, techniques of construc- 
 tion of the facility, selection of strata material and 
 method of placement of impermeable layer.

 The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974 (PL93-523) 
 required the Administrator of the Environmental 
 Protection Agency to arragne for a study that 
 would serve as a scientific basis for revising the 
 primary drinking water regulations that were pro- 
 mulgated under the Act. The Study was conducted 
 by the Safe Drinking Water Committee of the Na- 
 tional Research Council. A thorough study of the 
 scientific literature was undertaken in order to 
 assess the implications for human health of the 
 constituents of drinking water in the United States. 
 Assessment of the health benefits and the eco- 
 nomic or technological feasibility of achieving a 
 given level of contaminant control is outside the 
 scope of the study, although the beneficial effects 
 of some constituents of drinking water were con- 
 sidered. The risk to man of contaminants ingested 
 in drinking water was evaluated on the basis of 
 both epidemiological studies and studies of toxicity 
 in laboratory animals.

 This study presents a benchmark descriptive anal- 
 ysis of agricultural production in Nicaragua. The 
 purpose was to provide an analytical basis where- 
 by priorities for general and specific agricultural 
 policies could be established to further Nicaraguan 
 developmental objectives in the agricultural sector. 
 The study was limited to an analysis of principal 
 agricultural products in Nicaragua and included 
 nine crops and two livestock activities. These ac- 
 tivities were grouped into three classes of prod- 
 ucts: (1) basic grains including corn, beans, rice 
 and grain sorghum; (2) export products including 
 cotton, coffee, surgarcane, tobacco and sesame; 
 and (3) livestock activities which included the beef 
 and dairy enterprises. Together, these activities 
 accounted for over 90 percent of the total value of 
 production from the agricultural sector in 1971. 
 The analysis was further limited to production from 
 the six major regions which lie in the western half 
 of the country. The two eastern regions bordering 
 the Caribbean were excluded from the study since 
 both are economically unimportant in terms of na- 
 tional agricultural output.

 This report describes the results of a field study to 
 determine the quantities and characteristics of 
 waste in Ghana and the feasibility of using pyrolytic 
 conversion of these wastes. The study shows that 
 Ghana is generating 2,735,100 tons of agricultural 
 and forestry waste materials each year that are 
 suitable for pyrolytic conversion. Using pyrolytic 
 conversion of all these waste materials, approxi- 
 mately 342,000 tons of charcoal and perhaps 
 273,000 tons of oil could be produced. The market 
 value of the end products would be about 
 $48,396,000 each year. A preliminary description 
 of an appropriate technology version of a continu- 
 ous/batch pyrolytic conversion system is also pre- 
 sented in this report.

 Post larval Macrobrachium rosenbergii were fed 
 various amounts of Purina trout chow to determine 
 optimal feeding requirements during nursery devel- 
 opment. During the four week study, best results 
 were found in treatments fed amounts of food 
 which decreased weekly as the food demand of 
 the prawns decreased. The two treatment repli- 
 cates fed 10, 7 1/2, 5, and 2 1/2% body weight 
 daily during each week had increases from 0.03 g 
 to 0.35 g and 0.26 g mean prawn weight, 100 and 
 98.7% survival, and food conversion ratios of 1.2 
 and 1.8:1. This refinement in determination of 
 prawn food needs would allow 10,000 post larvae 
 to be reared for four weeks in a nursery situation 
 for a food cost of $1.80.

 Earth, air, and water-three of the four elements of 
 the ancient world-have been combined for several 
 millennia to form a versatile building material. This 
 product, sun-dried earth bricks, or adobe, was 
 easy to make and use in pre-industrialized soci- 
 eties. No great technical skill or equipment was 
 necessary. Fabrication required only mixing soil 
 and water, shaping the mixture into forms, and ex- 
 posing them to the atmosphere to set them. Once 
 hardened, the bricks were ready to use. The Na- 
 tional Bureau of Standards is studying the proper- 
 ties of adobe to determine what problems may be 
 associated with it, and how best to preserve adobe 
 in old buildings.

 world context of rising population, uncertain 
 weather, and concern with the availability of re-

 The researchers reviewed six alternative solid 
 waste methods. The six alternatives considered 
 were: continued landfill; household or source sep- 
 aration; pyrolysis; biodegradation; waste-based 
 solid fuel production; incineration. The use of a 
 sanitary landfill is virtually unavoidable now and in 
 the near future. Whatever plan or alternative is 
 adopted for Ada County, a certain percentage of 
 waste or amount of residue will ultimately end up in 
 a landfill. It is at the present, the most practical, 
 least-cost method of disposing of garbage. How- 
 ever, the sanitary landfill is not without problems. 
 For instance, the Hidden Hollow Sanitary Landfill, 
 Ada County's primary landfill site, opened in 1971 
 and was expected to last up to 1986. However, 
 due to an increasing volume of garbage, the life 
 expectancy has been shortened and the closing 
 date is now estimated to be about 1980. As citi- 
 zens become familar with more sanitary and pro- 
 ductive methods of disposing and/or utilizing solid 
 waste, traditional landfill techniques will become 
 less acceptable. Also, as the cost of energy esca- 
 lates, landfill will not be cost effective compared to 
 processes that recover materials or energy from 
 solid waste. (Portions of this document are not fully

 A linear programming analysis was used to simu- 
 late effects of hail suppression on Nebraska crop 
 production. Production costs and crop patterns in 
 ten major land resource areas (LRAs) were esti- 
 mated for 10%, 25%, and 50% levels of hail sup- 
 pression effectiveness, and compared to costs 
 and production distribution patterns without hail 
 suppression. With hail suppression effectiveness 
 of 50%, total production costs in the state would 
 have increased less than 1/2%. Corn production 
 would have been 2% higher; wheat production, 
 3.7% higher. With hail suppression, production 
 shifts of the same crop between LRAs were less 
 than 2%. Hail suppression would not have caused 
 substantial shifts of land use from one crop to an- 
 other within an LRA. If hail suppression technology 
 were widely used it could influence production of 
 some crops enough to change price.

 Septic tank-soil absorption systems are the most 
 widely-used method of on-site domestic waste dis- 
 posal. Almost one-third of the United States popu- 
 lation depends on such systems. Although the per- 
 centage of newly constructed homes utilizing 
 septic tanks is decreasing, the total number contin- 
 ues to increase. Properly designed, constructed, 
 and operated septic tank systems have demon- 
 strated an efficient and economical alternative to 
 public sewer systems, particularly in rural and 
 sparsely developed suburban areas. However, be- 
 
 cause of their widespread use in unsuitable situa- 
 tions, they have also demonstrated the potential 
 for contamination of ground and surface waters.

 A total of 532 references on the biological control 
 of aquatic nuisances were reviewed. Three major 
 control approaches exist. Grazing and predation 
 have been the most frequently utilized techniques, 
 with emphasis on macrophyte control by fish and 
 insects. The use of pathogens is potentially effec- 
 tive, with most promise in macrophyte control. Bio- 
 manipulation, the exploitation of the interrelation- 
 ships among plants and their environment is a 
 most promising technique for eutrophic systems. 
 This approach includes increasing algal grazers 
 while controlling zooplanktivores and exploiting 
 the competitive and growth limiting reactions 
 among various species. The importance of using 
 host-specific organisms to prevent damage to de- 
 sirable components of the ecosystem is empha- 
 sized.

 The principal factors which influence the recovery 
 of materials from junked automobiles are reviewed 
 and evaluated. These include the number and ma- 
 terials composition of the automobiles that are re- 
 tired annually in the U.S.; the flow of junk auto- 
 mobiles into the commercial recovery cycle and 
 problems associated with abandoned auto- 
 mobiles; operations of the auto wrecking industry 
 where serviceable parts are salvaged; and the 
 structure, operations and technology of the scrap 
 industry which transforms automobile hulks into 
 commercial grades of metal scrap. Since Federal 
 laws and policies impact on the reclamation of ma- 
 terials from junked automobiles, a legal review of 
 key legislation and policies is also included. Be- 
 cause of a strong demand for auto hulks by scrap 
 processors, created by an increased market for 
 ferrous scrap, the problem of an ever increasing 
 accumulation of unprocessed deregistered auto- 
 mobiles has been stabilized. In 1974, the fractional 
 recovery of metallic materials from the approxi- 
 mately ten million automobiles deregistered that 
 year was higher than from other forms of obsolete 
 scrap. The estimated value of the recovered mate- 
 rials was in excess of one billion dollars.

 only to petroleum in international commodity trade. 
 The United States has joined the 1962, 1968, and 
 1976 International Coffee Agreements primarily to 
 help stabilize prices and export income of the de- 
 veloping producing countries. Fluctuations in the 
 price of exported coffee appear to be in response 
 to anticipated future availability. However, the poli- 
 cies and procedures of exporting countries can in- 
 fluence availability and create pressure on prices.

 This report describes the worldwide housing short- 
 age and the shelter assistance efforts of the 
 Agency for International Development, the multi- 
 lateral lending institutions, private and voluntary or- 
 ganizations, and certain bilateral donors. This 
 review was made to provide an overview of the 
 world housing situation and to identify some of the 
 problem areas in the planning and management of 
 housing development assistance. The report 
 makes recommendations to assist international 
 donors, principally the Agency for International De- 
 velopment, in improving their efforts to provide 
 shelter assistance to the less developed countries.

 World Market Conditions for Grains; Prospects 
 and Problems, with Special Reference to the 
 Developing Countries

 Dramatic changes in world grain prices since 1972 
 have caused serious questions to be raised about 
 the level and stability of future grain prices. All 
 countries are concerned with these questions, but 
 they especially involve a large number of develop- 
 ing countries. Some developing countries are im- 
 portant grain exporters, and future world market 
 conditions bear directly on their prospects for for- 
 eign exchange earnings and the ability to finance 
 development. Many other developing countries 
 are net grain importers and the behavior of grain 
 prices in the future will affect the ability of these 
 countries to import grain, insure domestic food 
 price stability, and protect the nutritional well-being 
 of large segments of their population. World 
 market conditions for grains during the next 5 to 10 
 years could be highly uncertain, compared with 
 conditions that prevailed in the 1950s and 1960s. 
 This paper focuses on policy options which may be 
 open to countries, individually or collectively, for 
 dealing with uncertain market conditions. First, the 
 evolution of the current world market situation for 
 grains, the patterns of international trade in grains, 
 and the basic problems that the current situation 
 generates for different types of countries are dis- 
 cussed. Next, the future prospects for grain pro- 
 duction, consumption, trade, and policy options for 
 dealing with the future are examined. Finally, alter- 
 native mechanisms for implementing a variety of 
 policy options are reviewed. The focus is on grains 
 because they represent the basic category of food, 
 worldwide, and are the most important form in 
 which food is transferred among countries.

 Aquaculture had its cradle in Asia. It developed 
 there some four thousand years ago in harmony 
 with a traditional rural-agrarian economy, and it is 
 now heading towards some fascinating develop- 
 ments. Aquaculture in the Southeast Asian region, 
 including Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Sin- 
 gapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Burma, and 
 the southern China coast to Taiwan is examined. 
 The species cultured in the area are identified and 
 the collection and production of stocking material 
 is explained. Culturing facilities are described and 
 information is given on aquaculture practices and 
 techniques.

 During the Sea Grant fiscal year 1976-77, research 
 continued on the development of a waste recycling 
 aquaculture system at Woods Hole Oceanograph- 
 ic Institution. In the present system mixtures of 
 secondary treated sewage effluent and seawater 
 are used to mass culture marine phytoplankton on 
 a continuous basis in large outdoor ponds. These 
 phytoplankton are then fed to filter feeding bivalve 
 molluscs (oysters, clams, mussels). The effluent 
 from the mollusc culture tanks is passed through 
 cultures of macroscopic red algae to effect final 
 removal of excess and excreted nutrients from the 
 earlier stages of the controlled food chain. Work 
 has centered on the effects of physical parameters 
 on optimizing shellfish growth. Also monitoring of 
 phytoplankton species predominance in mass 
 algal cultures continued in an attempt to gain fur- 
 ther understanding of this important phenomenon. 
 Separate studies are reported on and included in 
 this report.

 The report examines alternative energy uses for 
 California Sacramento Valley rice straw residue. 
 This area of California can produce approximately 
 2 million tons of straw which has enough energy to 
 provide 30% of the fuel requirements for a 1,000 
 megawatt plant. The report deals with methods of 
 harvest, collection and storage, and provides an 
 economic assessment of several methods, includ- 
 ing total harvest. On-farm utilization of the energy 
 content of rice straw is discussed with regard to 
 rice drying and irrigation pumping. Off-farm use is 
 also considered. (Color illustrations reproduced in

 The importance of water supply to economic de- 
 velopment was analyzed for the Fort Berthold 
 (North Dakota) and Rosebud Sioux (South Dakota) 
 Reservations. A linear programming model was 
 developed for each Reservation's economy to de- 
 termine the importance of water as a factor of pro- 
 duction. Marginal productivity curves for water 
 were constructed by varying the water supply as- 
 sumed to be available to each Reservation. Both 
 Reservations face substantial legal barriers to the 
 full use of available water supplies. Should the Fort 
 Berthold and Rosebud Sioux Reservations lose 
 key legal contests, the resulting water shortage 
 could limit the value added of their economies to 
 74 percent and 50 percent of their respective full 
 potentials. Other factors which impede full devel- 
 opment of Reservation resources include lack of 
 financing, jurisdictional uncertainties, land owner- 
 ship patterns, and a shortage of managerial and 
 labor skills. The study offers guidelines for assert- 
 ing water rights and for ameliorating some of the 
 conditions inhibiting development.

 The need in Latin America for the adoption of com- 
 prehensive policies which consider the ocean as 
 an integral and important part of the process of de- 
 velopment is stressed. The ability to adopt and im- 
 plement such policies is directly related to the 
 marine scientific capability of the country and to 
 national awareness of ocean affairs. The utilization 
 and preservation of the oceans should be the 
 result of national and regional ocean policies in 
 Latin America. Thus, national ocean studies 
 should be undertaken to identify areas of econom- 
 ic and social concern upon which such policies 
 should be based. Developmental strategies in 
 Latin America should include appraisals of marine 
 ecosystems and the impact of development upon 
 them; at a regional level the strategies should also 
 consider the global role of the ocean in the bio- 
 sphere.

 Freshwater prawn farming is a new and dynamic 
 growth industry in Hawaii. Considerable progress 
 has been made in hatching and rearing techniques 
 since they were first introduced in 1965, yet there 
 is still considerable room for improvement, espe- 
 cially for the grow-out system. The current 'An- 
 uenue' strategy is broken down to functional com- 
 ponents and examined in detail through use of en- 
 gineering economy methods. Areas with short- 
 term potential for improvement are identified and 
 an alternative approach utilizing a narrow canal 
 pond design is recommended. There are various 
 advantages of this alternative which result in a cost 
 savings of 14.8%. The basic short-term improve- 
 ment recommended is a pond design that permits 
 mechanization of costly operations such as feed- 
 ing, harvesting, and pond maintenance and the de- 
 velopment of sophisticated management strate- 
 gies aimed at increasing yields.

 The relationships between the biology of flowering, 
 the fertilization of plants, and the biology of bees 
 have intrigued investigators for many years. The 
 results of new studies and experiments, have con- 
 firmed that the cross-pollination of entomophilous 
 plants by bees is of paramount importance not 
 only for increasing yield and improving seed and 
 fruit quality, but also for the production and exploi- 
 tation of heterosis in a number of bee-pollinated 
 crops. The proceedings published in the present 
 volume illustrate this point with new material. The 
 book provides interesting material for agronomists, 
 apiculturists, plant breeders and professional bee- 
 keepers.

 Ferrocement has been identified as an appropriate 
 technology material with many potential applica- 
 tions in developing countries especially in the rural 
 areas. Field visits were made during the period Oc- 
 tober 4-18,1 977 in West Java, South Sulawesi and 
 North Sumatra to obtain first hand information 
 about the conditions of the rural people. The pri- 
 mary result of the survey is the identification of 
 seven (7) potential applications of ferrocement 
 and related materials; these are: pontoons, dug- 
 out canoes, water jars, toilet bowls, well casings, 
 grain storage bins and building boards. The report 
 recommends that extensive testing, field demon- 
 stration and evaluation be conducted to determine 
 especially their social acceptability by the villagers 
 before full-scale implementation is undertaken.

 firewood cutting of the forests, especially in Java, 
 which has resulted in damage to soil, water, and 
 mangrove resources, with the resulting need for an 
 alternate source of fuel for cooking. The study in- 
 volved (1) an investigation of the production of ag- 
 ricultural and forestry wastes in Indonesia; (2) an 
 evaluation of the market for the char, oil, and gas 
 which are products of the pyrolytic conversion 
 process; (3) the development of a preliminary pyro- 
 lytic conversion system design; and (4) an approxi- 
 mate economic evaluation of the system. The pri- 
 mary results of the waste survey indicate that at 
 least 17 million tons of wastes are produced in 
 Indonesia each year, with rice hulls comprising a 
 third of the total and sawmill, coconut, logging, 
 rubber, oil palm wastes and bagasse comprising 
 the remainder. From the available wastes it is esti- 
 mated that about 1 .5 million tons of charcoal and 
 .9 million tons of pyrolytic oils could be produced.

 This report discusses the first urban windmill used 
 as an alternative energy source. The windmill was 
 designed and installed at 519 East 11th Street, a 
 tenement building in New York City. Findings show 
 that the energy produced from the windmill is an 
 important renewable energy resource which can 
 be used in most urban areas and which reduces 
 dependency on utility companies. A brief history of 
 the windmill's origin, design and installation proce- 
 dures are outlined. Also included are comparisons 
 of energy savings of the windmill energy versus the 
 utility companies. An appendix consists of litera- 
 ture, resources, a wind speed and direction map of 
 the USA, structural engineering calculations and 
 an explanation of windforces on windmills.

 The impact of rapidly increasing fuel costs has all 
 but made saline water conversion uneconomical. 
 However, the application of wind energy systems 
 to membrane processes for brackish water con- 
 version offers an economical solution. Commer- 
 cially available wind turbines and those under de- 
 velopment appear promising for producing electri- 
 cal energy at costs ranging from five cents down to 
 1.8 cents per kilowatt hour. It is still possible to 
 reach costs for desalting brackish water at less 
 than $1.00 per thousand gallons with large wind 
 energy/desalination systems. The coupling of 
 wind energy turbines to electrodialysis and reverse 
 osmosis also offers technological advantages, 
 such as variable energy outputs from wind tur- 
 bines, to optimize variable fluid flows in the desali- 
 nation processes for maximum, economic produc- 
 tion of potable water. Research and development 
 efforts in this direction are indicated.

 Employee Stock Ownership is an employee bene- 
 fit program through which employees can acquire 
 part or all of the stock in the corporation for which 
 they work. Since the ESOP Act of 1973, four addi- 
 tional pieces of legislation have been adopted re-

 As groundwater comes increasingly under devel-

 and political reasons, to anticipate the impact of its 
 development. The literature is reviewed on this 
 impact in arid lands in terms of two general catego- 
 ries: physical environment impacts and socioeco- 
 nomic impacts. Two case studies are presented: 
 One focuses on the impact of groundwater devel- 
 opment on the Papago Indians; the second, 
 through a discussion of groundwater development 
 in Pakistan, demonstrates the role groundwater 
 development can play in the economic develop- 
 ment process in developing arid countries.

 The study is about one of the most recent vari- 
 ations to emerge in the Employee Stock Owner- 
 ship Plan, or ESOP, which permits employees to 
 acquire up to 100 percent of the equity of the firm 
 for which they work. This plan not only affords a 
 real increase in property ownership for the workers 
 as individuals, but also serves as an instrument for 
 new corporate capital formation. Data have been 
 collected on 98 firms, including such information 
 as industry type, number of employees, magnitude 
 of sales volume, the percent of employees who 
 participate in the ownership plan. In thirty of the 
 companies we were able to obtain actual data 
 about profit and we therefore analyzed for this sub 
 set of companies the relationship between profit 
 and some of the aspects of ownership.

 Porous woven and non-woven fabrics have been 
 used in road construction in Region 6 since 1974. 
 The fabrics have been used: (1) as filters for sub- 
 surface drainage; (2) separation layers to prevent 
 subgrade soil contamination of base layers; (3) 
 subgrade restraining layers for weak subgrades; 
 (4) earth reinforcement to build retaining walls; (5) 
 erosion control, and (6) water proofing mem- 
 branes. A reference notebook titled 'Fabrics in 
 Construction' is due for release to Region 6 For- 
 ests in June 1977. This notebook contains a de- 
 scription of current practices and the state-of-the- 
 art in the use of fabrics in road construction and 
 maintenance. The notebook defines terminology 
 and lists the key factors involved in each usage, 
 and relates the fabric physical and chemical prop- 
 erties to the intended usage. The notebook also 
 contains appropriate technical literature, manufac- 
 turers' literature and cost data on the known avail- 
 able fabrics. This report highlights the contents of 
 the reference book and discusses the current 
 knowledge for the use of fabrics in low-volume

 The Aquaculture Program of Bodega Marine Labo-

 the development of aquaculture technology. The 
 primary area of emphasis is the culture of the 
 American lobster Homarus americanus. Research 
 in the areas of water quality, nutrition, genetics, 
 physiology, pathology, microbiology, algology, en- 
 gineering and economics, have been integrated to 
 emphasize the understanding of the economics of 
 
 culture, u.e presentation describes how work in 
 each of these areas has general application to the 
 culture of other species. The culture of Dungeness 
 crabs, freshwater prawns and other crustaceans 
 are currently being investigated. Recent regula- 
 tions requiring strict control of levels of metabolites 
 in mariculture effluents have led to investigations 
 of the potential of various species of algae to take 
 up ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite. These algae may 
 then serve as food for shellfish such as oysters, 
 clams, scallops, and mussels. The economics of 
 these food chains are discussed.

 In many developing countries, the difficulty of 
 standardizing trip measurements, the flexibility 
 with which vehicles are used and the absence of a 
 conventional sampling frame for interviewing road 
 users are the main obstacles to forecasting travel 
 from land use. A study in Kenya has shown the 
 difficulties of using roadside interviews for estab- 
 lishing trip relationships, but has indicated that a 
 suitable sampling frame could be constructed by a 
 direct survey of vehicle owners. The vehicle owner 
 in the broadest sense would then become the fun- 
 damental unit for trip studies. The Report suggests 
 that home and workplace questionnaire surveys, 
 focussing on the vehicle owner, may be suitable 
 for the extensive sampling necessary to evolve 
 standards for studies of rural trip characteristics. 
 Definitions of employment suitable for land-use/ 
 transport studies in developing countries are sug- 
 gested in the Report. These covered only 4 per- 
 cent of the population of the study area, but never- 
 theless, statistically they provided the best expla- 
 nation both for vehicle ownership and for trip gen- 
 eration. Trip origins from Agricultural and Residen- 
 tial land uses did not reach significant proportions. 
 The main generators were Retail and Commercial, 
 Road Transport, and Government Administration 
 land uses, which together accounted for over 75 
 percent of urban trip origins and 57 percent of all 
 trip origins. (Copyright (c) Crown Copyright 1977.)

 Anaerobic digestion is a biological process in 
 which bacteria break down organic matter to pro- 
 duce methane, partially stabilized effluent, and 
 other products. Although the process has been ad- 
 vocated as a source of fuel, feed, and fertilizer, its 
 widespread adoption in American agriculture is 
 doubtful. The cost and complexity of most diges- 
 tive systems make them difficult to incorporate in 
 agricultural operations. Although site specific ap- 
 plications may be feasible, these will not have a 
 major impact on the agricultural sector. As a 
 source of energy, there is little possibility of anaer- 
 obic digestion providing even a small percentage 
 of national energy requirements.

 Assessment of the economic, environmental, 
 social, and other impacts of large scale use of 
 technology for growing food inside enclosures, 
 Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA), was ini- 
 tiated to alleviate the agro-food problems of envi- 
 ronmental degradation; shortages of arable land, 
 water, and fertilizers; and unreliable production. 
 Primary conclusions were: (1) Large scale use 
 could alleviate these problems; (2) costs of pres- 
 ent systems are too high for agronomic crops, but 
 acceptable for some high value fresh vegetables; 
 
 (3) new systems can be made at lower costs and 
 less total energy consumption; (4) there is a need 
 to link R&D to open field agriculture, solar energy 
 systems, water management, and low-cost struc- 
 tures; and (5) CEA should be used with solar 
 energy and water management systems for large 
 communities. The study includes a conceptual 
 analysis of future systems, cost evaluations, and a 
 diffusion analysis of non-economic considerations.

 Controlled Environment Agriculture: A Global

 Identifiers: Global. 
 
 Controlled environment crop production is most 
 nearly approached, on a commercial scale, in 
 greenhouses. Greenhouses have been used for 
 food production for over a century, mainly in devel- 
 oped regions. The introduction of plastic film 
 during the 1950's lowered construction costs and 
 made it possible for less affluent nations to use 
 greenhouses. Among the newer techniques of en- 
 vironmental control used commercially are artificial 
 cooling, carbon dioxide enrichment, use of artificial 
 soil, and automated irrigation with liquid fertilizers. 
 Greenhouse labor and capital requirements per 
 unit of land exceed those for outdoor food crop 
 production. Much of the work must be done by 
 hand; there are usually few economies of scale 
 beyond family-sized operations. Capital invest- 
 ments for glasshouses in developed nations com- 
 monly exceed $100,000 per acre. The most impor- 
 tant crops produced worldwide are tomatoes, cu- 
 cumbers, and lettuce. On a global basis, environ- 
 mental control via greenhouses will be increasingly 
 important in agriculture.

 Patterns of world food production, consumption, 
 prices, and trade in the two decades prior to 1 972 
 are analyzed in terms of their effect on the turbu- 
 lent world food situation of 1972-74. Also exam- 
 ined are several issues that will shape develop- 
 ments in the next decade, including grain reserve 
 levels, nutritional requirements, food aid, resource 
 availability for producing food, weather, and 
 demand for food. Projections to 1 985 of world food 
 supply and demand are included, and differences 
 among developing countries are outlined. The 
 analysis concludes that factors giving rise to the 
 present world food situation are largely transitory 
 and can be corrected. Food supplies will remain 
 tight and their prices high for the next year or two, 
 but in the longer term and for the world as a whole, 
 more food can be produced per person and food 
 production can be generally adequate to meet 
 demand. But, substantial malnutrition will probably 
 persist among low-income groups in the less pros- 
 perous developing countries, and special national 
 and international programs will be necessary to 
 help those most seriously threatened.

 In five years, the University of North Carolina Sea

 $75,000 on wild eel harvesting advisory services. 
 What started out as an effort to tap an underuti- 
 lized species has led to an increasingly sophisti- 
 cated and expanding industry-one which prom- 
 ises even further development. There is a potential 
 market now for eels of all sizes. Extensive world- 
 wide demand continues, prices are good, supplies 
 are down elsewhere. To have created a market 
 would have taken a lot longer if, indeed, it could 
 have done at all. The project has lived up to its 
 goals. It has improved the financial situation of at 
 least 350 fishermen and a number of businesses. It 
 promises to do more.

 preservation for marketing. Artificial induction of 
 molt is explained. Soft shell crawfish, shrimps and 
 prawns are excellent food items. As the culture of 
 these species expands, suitable stock for the pro- 
 duction of soft shell animals will either continue to 
 be available (crawfishes) or become available 
 (shrimps and prawns). It is only a matter of time 
 before enough persons become aware of their 
 food value before the aquaculture industry will 
 evaluate and subsequently implement commercial 
 production.

 The volume reports on analysis and general re- 
 sults of the world grain-oilseeds-livestock (GOL) 
 model. The results point up the importance of the 
 strong interrelationships tying together the world 
 commodity sectors. Projections rest on a number 
 of alternative sets of assumptions about world 
 economic growth, trade, and food policy condi- 
 tions. However, the projections indicate that re- 
 gional food distribution problems are likely to per- 
 sist. Moreover, the alternative which assumes 
 lower grain yields and deteriorating climate and 
 weather suggests the possibility of serious pres- 
 sures on resources and increases in price of grain 
 imported by the developing countries. As a whole, 
 the developing countries' grain imports are project- 
 ed to increase faster than imports in the rest of the 
 world. Imports in 1985 are projected to range from 
 49 million tons under the alternative which as- 
 sumes a continuation of present agricultural and 
 trade policies, to 91 million tons under the high 
 import demand alternative; both compare with 
 recent levels of 30-35 million tons. Rising demand 
 for meat and livestock products is projected under 
 all alternatives. Growth in the commercial sectors 
 of the world meat economy ranges from one-third 
 to one-half above 1 970 base levels.

 Egg breaking plants yield an estimated 50,000 
 tons of waste annually. These wastes are com- 
 monly disposed of on land. This method of dispos- 
 al is becoming more difficult due to the potential for 
 pollution of local water resources. A triple pass 
 rotary drum dehydrator was installed at an egg 
 breaking plant. With appropriate engineering modi- 
 fications a system for producing egg shell meal 
 from the total egg shell waste from the breaking 
 plant was developed. This meal was utilized as a 
 feedstuff by a local mill and incorporated into a 
 layer diet. This diet was fed to several commercial 
 flocks of cage layers. Appropriate data were col- 
 lected to determine meal production costs, yield of 
 meal, feed produced, feeding data, and layer flock 
 performance. COD and BOD data were generated 
 to determine the pollution potential of the waste 
 were it not converted to a useful by-product.

 the United States, Mexico, Australia and Taiwan 
 merged their expertise, experiences and ideas with 
 Filipino scientists in an effort to: (1 ) put together all 
 available information of Ipil-ipil; (2) identify interna-

 oped at the International Maize and Wheat Im- 
 provement Center in Mexico, and (2) rice varieties 
 developed in the Philippines at the International 
 Rice Research Institute. Semi-dwarf varieties de- 
 veloped in national breeding programs are also in- 
 cluded. Data cover the 10-year period from the 
 1 965/66 crop year, when these varieties first came 
 into wide use, through 1 974/75.

 The Federal Government spent an estimated 
 $10.3 billion for food in fiscal year 1977. This 
 amount can be reduced by using modularization - 
 a system geometrically relating the size of food 
 shipping containers to one another. Benefits in- 
 clude reduced damage, increased productivity, 
 and possibly lower prices to the consumer. Bene- 
 fits from this system have been realized in Eurpean 
 countries, but little is being done within the United 
 States. To encourage Government-industry 
 awareness of this efficiency opportunity, GAO rec- 
 ommends that: (1) The Department of Agriculture 
 take the initiative in advancing understanding of 
 modularization; (2) The U.S. Metric Board consider 
 modularization in any metrication actions to 
 change package sizes in the food industry; (3) The 
 Congress include testimony on modularization ef- 
 forts in any consideration of food marketing and 
 prices.

 Identifiers: Multiple cropping. 
 
 Multiple cropping is the practice of growing more 
 than one harvested crop in sequence on the same 
 piece of land in the course of one year. While an 
 ancient technique, multiple cropping is of current 
 importance because of the promise it holds for al- 
 leviating important problems in the less developed 
 nations. Technological advances in developing 
 short-season varieties have (1) broadened the 
 area where multiple cropping is possible, and (2) 
 increased the potential number of crops which 
 may be grown in current multiple cropping areas. 
 But to take advantage of multiple cropping, ade- 
 quate water control must be available, along with 
 farm chemicals in improved farm management. 
 The report surveys the development in current 
 status of multiple cropping in less developed na- 
 tions.

 The Report presents a survey of intermediate 
 forms of urban public transport used throughout 
 the developing world. The controversy surrounding 
 intermediate public transport is discussed and the 
 more important issues and problems are identified. 
 Brief descriptions of some examples are also pre- 
 sented which illustrate how these transportation 
 systems are organized and operated. The purpose 
 of the Report is to elucidate the significant role that 
 intermediate public transport performs in the urban 
 sector of developing countries. This provides the 
 background to further research work being con- 
 ducted by the Overseas Unit of the Transport and 
 Road Research Laboratory into the efficiency of 
 these various forms of transport. (Copyright (c)

 A method of disposing of dewatered sewage 
 sludge by entrenching it into soil was developed 
 for small communities. Readily available and rela- 
 tively inexpensive equipment was used. Included 
 were a tractor equipped with a loader and back- 
 hoe, and dump truck or concrete mixer truck. A 
 tractor operator and a truck driver were required. 
 Trenches, dug with the backhoe, were 60 cm wide, 
 60 cm deep, and 60 cm apart. The time required to 
 entrench 12 tons of dewatered sludge was one 
 hour. The estimated cost of sludge incorporation

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 was less than $1 5.00 per ton of dewatered sludge. 
 Cost items included equipment, personnel, hauling 
 (64 km round trip), land, drainage monitoring, and 
 cultivation. Reuse of a previously trenched site in- 
 dicated that about 2 years is the minimum satisfac- 
 tory time lapse between the first and second en- 
 trenchment. Trenching of limed sludge cake can 
 be done without odor or surface water runoff prob- 
 lems. Trenching is most appropriate on low quality 
 land where surface application is not feasible.

 The Survey of the Emerging Solar Energy Industry 
 offers the first comprehensive overview of an ex- 
 citing new industry that will revolutionize the way 
 we live. It reviews the six major subdivisions of 
 solar technology in considerable depth, i.e., heat- 
 ing and cooling; solar thermal electric; photovol- 
 taics; wind energy; ocean thermal; and bioconver- 
 sion. It traces the catalytic role of the federal gov- 
 ernment in spurring the development of solar tech- 
 nology and includes a comprehensive analysis of 
 all state government solar-oriented legislation. The 
 impact of solar technology on the utility industry is 
 examined; all major solar projects of the electric 
 utilities are listed and some of the major demon- 
 stration projects are discussed in detail. The re- 
 search activities of universities, nonprofit organiza- 
 tions and government laboratories are identified by 
 technical area. All leading companies (both public- 
 ly and privately owned-including a number of the 
 'Fortune 500') which are now active in the field are 
 listed in the two Directories that have been incor- 
 porated as part of the Survey. Consensus market 
 forecasts are presented and commented upon. 
 The long range financial implications of break- 
 throughs in certain technologies are pointed out.

 Detailed supply-distribution tables from the world 
 grain-oilseeds-livestock (GOL) projections model 
 are presented. The projections to 1 985 rest on a 
 number of alternative assumptions about world 
 economic growth, trade, and food policy condi- 
 tions. Under most of the alternatives tested, the 
 world has sufficient capacity-whether measured in 
 terms of physical potential or economic feasibility— 
 to meet the grain and overall food needs of an ex- 
 panding, more affluent population at real prices 
 somewhat above base 1970 levels but below 
 1972-75 highs. However, the projections indicate 
 that regional food distribution problems are likely 
 to persist. Moreover, the alternative assuming 
 lower grain yields and deteriorating climate and 
 weather suggests the possibility of serious pres- 
 sures on resources and higher prices for grain im- 
 ports by developing countries. As a whole, the de- 
 veloping countries' grain imports are projected to 
 increase faster than imports in the rest of the 
 
 world; 1 985 imports are projected to range from 49 
 million tons to 71 million tons.

 The general purpose of the study was to examine 
 the role of information and extension services in 
 promoting change in the lives of subsistence peas- 
 ants in the Highlands of Guatemala. The study was 
 also intended to contribute to an understanding of 
 the social and economic reality within which the 
 Mayan Indian carries on his system of subsistence 
 agriculture. This study concludes that a program of 
 information and credit cannot and will not change 
 significantly the lives of subsistence farmers in the 
 Highlands. Agriculture extension services present- 
 ly reach a group of relatively well-off farmers and 
 even if these services were extended, the use that 
 the small subsistence farmers can make of them is 
 structurally limited; the changes the program may 
 achieve through the introduction of new techno- 
 logical practices will not produce significant im- 
 provements in the lives of the subsistence poor.

 The paper addresses two questions: (1) What is 
 the most desirable form of sanitizing chemical for 
 use in rural water supplies; and (2) What is the best 
 overall means of getting this sanitizing agent into 
 rural water supplies. Several chemicals and hy- 
 pochlorinators are described and evaluated. In 
 conclusion, a low-cost, dependable feeding device 
 suitable for use in disinfecting marginal waters in 
 the rural areas of developing countries is present- 
 ed. The operation and maintenance of this device 
 is easy for the unskilled labor in these areas; no 
 sophisticated power source is needed to provide 
 continuous, automatic operation; the device uses a 
 readily available, commercial chlorine chemical 
 that can be economically shipped, stored, and 
 used at these points of need. An appendix is also 
 included giving technical specifications and per- 
 formance data.

 audit. 
 
 The activities of management require frequent 
 evaluations designed to reveal the operating and 
 financial condition of a business. The best known 
 and most formal of these are prepared by a quali- 
 fied accountant. These audits are prepared ac- 
 cording to a format which is well-known and ac- 
 ceptable to those concerned with financial condi- 
 tion of businesses. Such statements, however, are 
 not adequate to provide what management needs 
 to develop efficient methods of control and direc- 
 tion for the operational activities of a business. To 
 facilitate operational control, it's desirable to pro- 
 vide ways in which management can (1) identify 
 activities that should be observed, (2) establish 
 standards of measurement, and (3) provide sug- 
 gestions for making improvements. The manage- 
 ment audit is an outline for self-appraisal in which 
 the owner-manager answers a series of questions 
 about typical business operations. The material in 
 this booklet was designed for a small manufactur- 
 er; each area is applicable to manufacturing activi- 
 ty. Overall, however, the technique could be ap- 
 plied to almost any enterprise in which functional 
 operations are a critical factor in efficiently produc- 
 ing goods or services. The following areas are cov- 
 ered: production and operations, plant and equip- 
 ment, accounting, budgeting and expense control, 
 cash management, management and organiza- 
 tion, laws, regulations, and taxes, risk and insur- 
 ance, credit management, systems and proce- 
 dures, outside consultants and resources, inven- 
 tory control and management, purchasing, market-

 The subject of human relations is as old as history. 
 In the business world, human relations involves 
 finding and selecting a working staff, developing 
 workers, and guiding and motivating them in the 
 direction of gaining management's goals. Well-

 planned action is much more valuable than a prob- 
 lem-solving approach. Worker-manager relations 
 become more important than ever. It is the supervi- 
 sor's job to set the climate for the work group. Any 
 man who manages a plant gets the work done 
 through people. The key to accomplishing this lies 
 at least in part in the broad and complex field 
 called human relations, which is the subject of this 
 booklet. The topics discussed are the following: 
 Human relations in small business-why and how; 
 Worker morale; Starting right-personnel selection; 
 Orientation and induction; Training; Continuing 
 personnel relations.

 The booklet is designed to meet the needs of the 
 small owner-manager. The approach used is a do- 
 it-yourself technique. The manager does the ex- 
 amining; the answers are private; and none of the 
 intimate facts about the business will be revealed 
 to an outsider. However, it is advisable to compare 
 this self-appraisal with the views of others in whom 
 the manager has confidence. In the present audit, 
 there are 1 70 questions. The manager's answers 
 to them will give a good indication of how well he or 
 she is doing the planning, organizing, directing, co- 
 ordinating, and controlling that the business 
 needs. Moreover, the questions the manager 
 cannot answer affirmatively should direct attention 
 to areas which previously have not been given 
 much thought. And, in most instances, from this 
 attention will come the stimulation needed to de- 
 velop good management practices for these 
 areas. The questions have been divided into 18 
 sections to cover the essential parts of retail man- 
 agement. These sections are the following: Intro- 
 duction to the management audit, a look at your- 
 self and your ability to grow, customer relations, 
 personnel management and supervision, mer- 
 chandise inventory control, budgetary control and 
 productivity, buying, pricing, advertising and pro- 
 motion, display, equipment and layout, cash and 
 finance, credit, insurance, accounting records, 
 taxes and legal obligations, planning for growth, 
 and publications dealing with managing a retail 
 business.

 Suggestion systems are for everyone. Small com- 
 panies and large, employers and employees, even 
 customers-all benefit. For the small-business 
 manager, a suggestion system can cut costs, in- 
 crease efficiency, and build better employer-em- 
 ployee relations. For employees, it can bring a 
 chance to earn extra money and, perhaps more 
 important, the realization that they are members of 
 the team-that the company is interested in the 
 total contribution they can make and not just in 
 their capacity as producing machines. For custom- 
 ers, suggestion systems mean better products or 
 services. 'An employee suggestion system for 
 small companies' explain the basic principles for 
 starting and operating a successful suggestion 
 system. It warns of various pitfalls to be avoided 
 and gives examples of suggestions submitted by 
 workers through company suggestion systems. 
 The following areas are discussed: Theory of the 
 suggestion plan; Essentials of a good suggestion 
 system (Appoint an administrator, Appoint a sug- 
 gestion committee, Employ task teams; Provide 
 suggestion boxes and bulletin boards; Provide 
 suggestion blanks or forms; Provide suitable initial 
 awards; Make sure of followup; Provide additional 
 awards); Additional pointers (Files; Complaints; 
 Duplicate suggestions; Unclaimed awards; De- 
 layed adoption of ideas; Eligibility; Ideas from out- 
 side sources; Employee buildup of ideas; Patents; 
 Thought provokers; Advice and publications); In- 
 stalling and operating the system; Simplifications 
 for the very small company; Problems in 'selling' 
 the suggestion plan; What to expect- Periodic re- 
 selling of the plan.

 nancial Recordkeeping for Small Stores 
 
 Robert C. Ragan. 1976, 42p 
 
 Descriptors: 'Businesses, 'Financial manage- 
 ment, 'Records management, Taxes. 
 Identifiers: 'Small businesses, 'Small stores. 
 
 The author has designed this basic recordkeeping 
 system primarily for the small store owner-man- 
 ager or prospective owner whose business does 
 not justify hiring a trained, full-time bookkeeper. 
 This system will accomplish three purposes: (1) 
 Maintain a record of all transactions of the busi- 
 ness; (2) protect the assets of the business from 
 errors, fraud, and just plain carelessness; and (3) 
 provide a basis for business planning by showing 
 the results of past decisions and furnishing the 
 facts needed for future decisions. But this system 
 will not accomplish these purposes automatically. 
 To be fully useful, a bookkeeping system must be 
 adapted to the needs of the individual business. 
 And then, it can only be as useful as it is up to date 
 and accurate. The information it records must be 
 applied, not just in the preparation of tax returns, 
 but in the day-to-day operation of the business. 
 The following topics are discussed: The why, what, 
 and how of records (Records-for the government 
 or for youself; Building materials for your record- 
 keeping system; Methods and equipment); The 
 money comes in-and goes out (The change and 
 petty cash fund, The daily summary of sales and 
 cash receipts, Writing the checks); Lining up the 
 records (The sales and cash receipts journal, The 
 cash disbursements, purchases, and expense 
 journal); Getting set for monthly financial state- 
 ments (Reconciling your bank statement, Record- 
 ing accounts payable, Merchandise inventories); 
 The score-win or lose, and how much (The profit- 
 and-loss statement, Departmental operating rec- 
 ords); The shape you're in (The general ledger and 
 the balance sheet, Steps to be taken at the end of 
 the year); The absentee asset-accounts receiv- 
 able (Recording accounts receivable, Aging your 
 accounts receivable, Accounting for bad debts); 
 Some special cash receipts situations (Return 
 sales and refunds, Making purchases from cash 
 
 receipts, Cashing customers' checks, Redeeming 
 coupons); Depreciation and disposal of plant 
 assets ( ymputing depreciation of property and 
 equipment, Recording the purchase and depreci- 
 ation of plant assets, Recording the sale, trade-in, 
 or junking of plant assests); Here they come-taxes 
 (Collecting and recording sales taxes, Payroll rec- 
 ords and payroll taxes, Income and self-emloy- 
 ment taxes).

 Designing development projects requires some 
 form of systems approach. If any plan is to suc- 
 ceed, the factors that will probably determine the 
 outcome must be identified, and their relationships 
 must be established. There will always be sur- 
 prises as implementation proceeds, for our ability 
 to predict and control the future is limited. The 
 object of planning and design is to keep those sur- 
 prises at a minimum. A systems approach, proper- 
 ly used, can serve this aim. The examples draw on 
 a broad range of problems and situations confront- 
 ing project planners in the development fields, 
 ranging from education and health to agriculture 
 and economic policy. Most of the examples refer 
 to a developing country which (for convenience) 
 has a widely varying climate and diverse ecological 
 zones. The population is mostly agrarian. The tools 
 included in this volume fall into a number of cate- 
 gories-generating ideas; assessing qualitative fac- 
 tors; defining objectives; describing complex rela- 
 tionships; analyzing complex processes; account- 
 ing for alternative outcomes; forecast and predic- 
 tion; analyzing projects; and planning, controlling, 
 and evaluating projects. Clearly, many techniques 
 could be included in more than one category. For 
 example, computer simulation models could be 
 used for the last six purposes listed. It is presented 
 in analyzing complex processes because that is 
 the most basic use of computer simulation. Each 
 tool is designed to stand alone as a source of infor- 
 mation for a decision maker, as an aid to the ana- 
 lyst, and as a catalyst for multidisciplinary design 
 teams. The tool description provides a basis for 
 action and/or the evaluation of actions by others.

 The author identifies three possible approaches to 
 the design of agricultural development projects- 
 three different ways of specialization, by sector, by 
 function, and by area. As a necessary step in re- 
 sponding, the author presents a set of six factors 
 which appears to have important effects upon the 
 chances for a project's success. The result is a 
 cogent set of statements to guide those who would 
 design projects, and do so with the opportunity to 
 choose from among alternative arrangements.

 this volume presents a new delivery system strat- 
 egy and the techniques for managing it. The 
 system of concern is the whole complex of basic 
 analytical concepts, policy, strategy, tactics, insti-

 sary services that will induce and enable peasants 
 to modernize, or to change from peasant to farmer. 
 This volume presents essential management 
 tools, the concepts underlying these tools, and a 
 series of quantitative techniques and fairly rigorous 
 decision tools.

 Science Development: The Building of Science

 The book is concerned with the deliberate and sys- 
 tematic development of scientific capability in de- 
 veloping countries. The book is a 'summary of the 
 state of the art in science development,' a collec- 
 tion, distillation, and generalization of an accumu- 
 lated body of experience. It appears to be the first 
 book on the subject, though the literature on sci- 
 ence development has become quite extensive. A 
 valuable feature of this book is the list of 500 publi- 
 
 cations on various aspects of science develop- 
 ment, many of them summarized in the text. Mor- 
 avcsik argues that science must be developed in 
 developing countries if the desirable goals of a 
 higher standard of living, an independent econo- 
 my, political and military power, and liberation from 
 a subsistence existence are to be achieved. Do- 
 mestic science education is, in his opinion, the 
 best way to produce the needed scientists, with 
 strong emphasis on quality as well as quantity. 
 Special attention must be given to retaining com- 
 petent scientific manpower. He asserts that scien- 
 tific communication is perhaps the most important 
 tool of science, and that the international scientific 
 communication system is strongly biased against 
 developing countries. There are internal problems 
 of communication as well: while many developing 
 countries have the correct ratio of basic to applied 
 research, connections between the two are not de- 
 veloped. Hence the effectiveness of each, particu- 
 larly of applied research, is greatly lessened. He 
 maintains that improvement of quality in applied re- 
 search and the establishment of links between 
 basic and applied should be the primary targets of 
 attention. The best method of allocating funds, he 
 says, is a mixture of individual grants based on 
 merit and institutional grants distributed equally. In 
 developing countries much applied research is 
 poorly done. However, some applied research is 
 well done but has no effect: the linkages between 
 the research and production sectors are so poor 
 that research results never reach the places where 
 they are needed. What are the institutional requi- 
 sites of science. How can the linkages be estab- 
 lished which will enable scientists to participate ef- 
 fectively in their country's development. Presented 
 are a great deal of information on science develop- 
 ment, a set of recommendations, and an enthusi- 
 astic call for involvement.

 Today, a world-wide revolution of fairness is taking 
 place in which longstanding inequalities are no 
 longer tolerable. The less developed countries are 
 reaching for equal rights, opportunities, and re- 
 sources. Their search will intensify as communica- 
 tions make the relative economic positions of na- 
 tions and groups increasingly visible. The devel- 
 oped countries are striving to meet the challenge 
 of eliminating inequality without exacerbating their 
 
 own economic problems. The planned 1979 
 United Nations Conference on Science and Tech- 
 nology for Development (UNCSTD) represents 
 one probe in the search for a new economic order. 
 The primary aim of the Conference, as described 
 by the UN Panel of Experts on Science and Tech- 
 nology in April, 1975, is to enhance the rate of de- 
 velopment of the underdeveloped countries and 
 thus increase their contribution to world production 
 and their share of world consumption. It should 
 aim, the Panel said, for 'a conjunction of efforts for 
 development whicn would integrate the policy- 
 makers, decision-makers, economic and social 
 planners with the scientists and technologists.'

 A combined waste recycling-marine aquaculture 
 system capable of complete nitrogen removal from 
 treated domestic wastewater has been developed 
 and tested on a pilot-plant scale over a one-year 
 period. Effluent from secondary sewage treatment, 
 mixed with seawater, is used to grow unicellular 
 marine algae in large, continuous-flow, outdoor 
 mass cultures. Harvest from the algae cultures is 
 fed to oysters and other filter-feeding bivalve mol- 
 luscs and to secondary crops of flounder or lob- 
 sters. Dissolved wastes produced by the animals 
 are assimilated by cultures of commercially valua- 
 ble seaweeds. Successful cultures of unicellular 
 algae, mostly diatoms, and seaweeds have sus- 
 tained over long periods of time. Bivalve mollusc 
 culture was unsuccessful during the first year of 
 operation. An alternative nitrogen-removal system 
 consisting only of seaweeds fed a continuous flow 
 of secondary sewage effluent mixed with seawater 
 has also been evaluated.

 Experiments were conducted on the use of algae 
 for removal of salt from water in an attempt to de- 
 velop an economically feasible, low energy 
 method for the conversion of saline water. Primary 
 project objectives are: (1) to undertake a literature 
 search; (2) to select and obtain algal cultures; (3) 
 to culture algae in sufficiently large volumes for 
 test purposes; (4) to determine suitable methods 
 for evaluation of media and cellular sodium con- 
 centrations; and (5) to test various environmental 
 factors for their effect on algal sodium uptake and 
 excretion. The literature search was completed, 
 stock algal cultures were obtained and grown in 
 relatively large culture volumes. Techniques for 
 monitoring cell sodium levels were evaluated for 
 the most efficient means of removing external 
 sodium and for digestion of the cells prior to 
 sodium analysis. Environmental changes indicated 
 in the literature search and which could be easily 
 manipulated were made in attempts to induce 
 uptake/release of sodium from algal cells. Factors 
 selected for experimental manipulation were: pH, 
 salinity, temperature, light vs. dark conditions, ad- 
 dition and depletion of energy sources, addition of 
 toxic compound, and addition of sewage sludge. 
 No significant uptake or excretion of sodium or 
 chloride were obtained in the algal species studied 
 when the selected environmental manipulations

 The bibliography was begun in 1 970 as a working 
 file of the literature concerned with charcoal rot of 
 various plants, particularly soybean (Glycine max 
 (L.) Merr.) and the causal fungus, Macrophomina 
 phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. Only recently, except for 
 its occurrence on bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and 
 jute (Corchorus capsulars L), was the importance 
 of this fungus as a serious pathogen of crop plants 
 and trees fully appreciated. Because this fungus 
 attacks under environmental conditions usually 
 nonfavorable for plant growth, it was considered a 
 weak parasite or merely a saprophyte causing little 
 or no significant damage. However, its seriousness 
 on economic plants throughout the world was 
 more fully recognized during the 1970's. There is 
 now increased interest in the study of this fungus 
 as a plant pathogen. Therefore, the principal pur- 
 pose of this bibliography is to provide a handy ref- 
 erence to mycologists and plant pathologists inter- 
 ested in this fungus and the diseases it causes.

 ICSU (International Council of Scientific Unions)/ 
 COSTED (Committee on Science and Technology 
 in Developing Countries)-has organized this Semi- 
 nar on 'Technical Information Services for Devel- 
 oping Countries' with the hope that it will enable 
 scientists and librarians to discuss urgent prob- 
 lems of developing countries and how suitable 
 methods can be evolved to tackle such problems. 
 The information services that are now available 
 are not geared to tackle such problems as they do 
 not even cater to the needs of more than 80% of 
 the rural population. At several informal gatherings 
 during the seminar this topic had come up and 
 over 100 librarians and scientists that were pres- 
 ent contributed their ideas as to how this can be 
 rectified. Scientists and librarians from Sri Lanka, 
 Bangladesh, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and 
 India participated in the Seminar and presented 
 views regarding problems pertaining to their coun- 
 tries.

 The report encompasses a detailed technology as- 
 sessment of vegetable substitutes for animal pro- 
 tein in human food. The potential exists for vegeta- 
 ble protein to be an important substitute for animal 
 protein in the human diet, but the substitution must 
 take place in areas where consumption of animal 
 protein is or could be high. Vegetable protein is 
 being used in the United States as analogs, ingre- 
 dients, and extenders of meat and dairy products. 
 Studies have indicated that over the next 10-15 
 years, emphasis will be placed on using vegetable 
 protein as a meat extender, rather than a direct 
 analog. Federal legislation will continue to be 
 highly important, and most likely will be directed 
 towards the technology and development of new 
 vegetable protein products, rather than influencing 
 consumer purchasing patterns. Several factors are 
 involved in substituting vegetable protein, one of 
 the most important of which is the form the substi- 
 tution should take. A recommendation is made for 
 a complete technology assessment, which should 
 include all important technological and socio-eco- 
 nomic factors.

 The potential exists for vegetable protein to substi- 
 tute importantly for animal protein in the human 
 diet in the United States. A detailed technology as- 
 sessment design of vegetable substitutes is the 
 primary intent of this study. Phase I assesses the 
 validity of accomplishing the research and then de- 
 scribes in detail the approach to the technology 
 assessment of (a possible) Phase II. In this 
 volume, Appendices A and B contribute to that as- 
 sessment. In Appendix A, human physiology and 
 the need for protein is addressed in discussions of 
 metabolism and daily protein requirements and the 
 impact of changes in protein intake. Appendix B 
 includes the results of a mini technology assess- 
 ment. This assessment of vegetable substitutes 
 for animal protein as human food addresses: (1) 
 factors important to food-consumption patterns; 
 (2) historic food-consumption patterns; (3) impor- 
 tant future sources of vegetable protein, including 
 the influence of technology, legislation, and other 
 factors; (4) potential impacts of vegetable substi- 
 tutes; and (5) potential policy implications.

 economically nor energetically wise at this time for 
 Minnesota to commit itself to a gasohol program

 adopting the single source, large scale Nebraska

 op size), and encourage the utilization of a variety 
 of feedstocks such as, sugar beets, grains and cel- 
 lulosic residues.

 A preliminary comprehensive technology assess- 
 ment has been made of the potential 'biological 
 substitutes' for chemical pesticides. The authors 
 identified a group of pest control technologies that 
 would not depend on extensive first-choice reli- 
 ance on conventional chemical pesticides, and 
 made the assessment for this group. The assess- 
 ment began with a survey of the driving forces of 
 using pest control, in general, and of the reasons 
 why biological and related methods might be sub- 
 stituted for chemicals. A review was made of the 
 types of pest problems that major pesticide user 
 groups have, and of the approaches they use to 
 control various pests. A review also was made of 
 those government regulations that have been de- 
 veloped to control the use of chemical pesticides 
 and of those that might apply to the proposed use 
 of biological and related methods. Studies were 
 made of the current state of development, produc- 
 tion, and extent of use of the chemical pesticides, 
 and of the human health environmental, economic, 
 and other benefits or disbenefits and controversies 
 that accompany this usage. Two scenarios were 
 developed reflecting alternative growth patterns 
 through the year 1 990 for both chemical and bio- 
 logical methods. Additional information on the gen- 
 eral approach to this technology assessment is 
 given in Appendix A.

 The report contains a series of recommendations 
 by the study committee about the design of pro- 
 grams in international health, urging that U.S. (1) 
 assist less developed countries to strengthen their 
 own capacity to deal with their health problems, (2) 
 work collaboratively with host country organiza- 
 tions, (3) make realistic and sustained commit- 
 ments to international health projects, and (4) co- 
 ordinate activities with international agencies such 
 as the World Health Organization. An examination 
 of statutory policy and organizational framework 
 now used by the U.S. government in international 
 
 health programs led the committee to identify four 
 major problems that must be resolved; (1) inad- 
 equate access by the government to major U.S. 
 sources of health science expertise, (2) skimpy 
 support of research and development on major 
 health problems in developing countries, (3) scat- 
 tered agency responsibility for decisions on inter- 
 national health activities, and (4) inadequate orga- 
 nizational arrangements for policy development. 
 The committee makes three general recommen- 
 dations for reassignment of responsibilities to re- 
 solve the problems.

 The complex problems of managing the massive 
 acceleration of urban growth in the developing 
 countries while at the same time improving the 
 quality of urban services and renewing the obso- 
 lete urban structure of the older cities poses ad- 
 ministrative, legislative, and financial demands 
 without precedence in the developed countries. In 
 this publication, PADCO, Inc. attempts to summa- 
 rize the main problems facing Latin American 
 countries in urban administration and to indicate 
 the implications affecting urban development and 
 planning. Each Latin American country has 
 evolved its own set of administrative, legislative, 
 and financial tools for dealing with urbanization. 
 This fact makes it difficult to generalize both con-

 cerning experience and recommendations for im- 
 provement. It is hoped, however, that this overview 
 of the central issues will prove useful in providing 
 the planner and urban administrator with a better 
 understanding of how his own work is affected by 
 the national, regional and local context in which he 
 operates. The root causes of many day-to-day 
 problems to be faced by urban administrators may 
 not be within their immediate control at all, but 
 rather stem from inadequate or incomplete nation- 
 al policy and legislation. The importance of estab- 
 lishing the national framework for guiding urban 
 development is a recurring theme of this publica- 
 tion.

 The hydraulic ram pump can be used with great

 The hydram pump uses the power of falling water 
 to pump a small portion of that water uphill. It re- 
 quires absolutely no fuel or electricity, only water 
 pressure. The pump was developed about 200 
 years ago, and the beauty of the hydram lies in its 
 simplicity. There are only two moving parts which 
 are lubricated by the water itself. This manual 
 hopes to show that anyone with a minimal amount 
 of mechanical aptitude can survey, design and

 that are found in various parts of the world and tells 
 what can be expected of them. It then tells what is 
 best to do with each of them, alone or in combina-

 or make them better with the use of stabilizers. 
 Then, it explains which of the three general kinds 
 of earth construction is best for use with the kinds 
 
 of soil available. It also describes simple tests 
 anyone can perform that tell the builder how well 
 he is succeeding in what he is trying to do. After 
 chapters on picking out places to build, how to 
 make a good foundation for any kind of house, and 
 how to build a roof, the manual has separate chap-

 of nutrient and energy recovery from a swine 
 waste management system are reported. Algae 
 and bacteria were used to convert swine manure 
 into methane-rich fuel gas and supplemental pro- 
 tein for animal feed. Waste heat from electricity 
 generating plants was simulated to test its value in 
 enhancing the biological recovery of nutrients and 
 energy. The anaerobic digestion of the manure 
 solids removed 55 percent of the total solids. The 
 destruction of the volatile solids was 56 percent, 
 and the COD was reduced by 41 percent. The daily 
 gas production averaged 1.06 cu m/kg VS re- 
 moved. The gas contained 68 percent v/v CH4 
 and 32 percent v/v C02. The necessity to dilute 
 the swine waste with large volumes of water in 
 order to make the liquid phase of the manure suit- 
 able for algal growth, and the potentially high cost 
 of harvesting and processing the algae, prompted 
 the consideration of other management systems 
 for the recovery of nutrients and energy from swine 
 manure, including the culturing of yeast, micro- 
 fungi, and fish. Architectural perspectives and plan 
 views were developed for each management 
 system together with schematic diagrams showing 
 the flow of energy and materials through each 
 system, based on the feed and energy needs and 
 the waste discharge of 1 00 pigs.

 As agricultural output increases, new opportunities 
 develop for providing goods, services, and mar- 
 kets in rural areas. Farmers require additional farm 
 inputs and processing and marketing facilities for 
 outputs. In addition, rising rural incomes create 
 new demand for consumer products. By providing 
 a supportive environment for rural based enter- 
 prises, governments can potentially improve the 
 welfare of rural populations and further stimulate 
 agricultural production. The paper discusses how 
 rural enterprises can contribute to the overall 
 economy and what mechanisms have been used 
 in attempts to stimulate their development.

 Findings are presented of studies determining the 
 role of invertebrates in sludge disposal manage- 
 ment using four secondary-treatment domestic 
 sludges, including an aerobic digest and anaerobic 
 digests from three separate wastewater treatment 
 plants. Data previously unavailable on the chemi- 
 cal content of the organic matter in sludge resi- 
 dues are disclosed. Anaerobic sludges are shown 
 to be toxic to earthworms when Eh is low but, if 
 applied to a mineral topsoil, are invaded sequen- 
 tially by nematodes, enchytraid worms and earth- 
 worms, as the sludges become aerated increasing 
 its Eh. Functional moisture and temperature rela- 
 tionships are established for sludge conversion 
 into feces by earthworms and isopods. Earth- 
 worms placed into aerobic sludge drying beds 
 cause accelerated sludge stabilization and en- 
 hance aerobic decomposition product production 
 when moisture is held below a critical level. Mois- 
 ture content is the major determinant of whether 
 an aerobic or anaerobic decomposition pathway is 
 taken. Earthworm feeding activity is shown to stim- 
 ulate an increase in nematode population density 
 which promotes an observed bacterial turnover 
 hastening sludge decomposition and stabilization. 
 Data on the effect of heavy metals and the pres- 
 ence or absence of certain enzymes are dis- 
 cussed. Additional studies on enzymes and de- 
 composition processes are reported in abstract 
 form.

 Adobe samples from three sites of historic interest 
 in the State of Arizona were analyzed to determine 
 their mineral assemblages, particle size distribu- 
 tions, soluble salt contents, and porosities. These 
 analyses were accompanied by microscopic ob- 
 
 servations of polished sections and thin sections. 
 These data were correlated with the weathering 
 observed and it was found that soluble salt action 
 was responsible for the deterioration of the adobe 
 from one of the sites. The nature of the particle 
 size distribution has resulted in the rapid deteriora- 
 tion of the adobe from a second site. The adobe 
 from a third site was found to be well consolidated 
 due to the presence of large amounts of calcite.

 The study was initiated in 1970, with the hope that 
 a pattern of operational characteristics, similarity 
 of problems, and a uniform approach to technical 
 assistance would emerge. The purpose behind this 
 effort has been to provide relevant information 
 which will help research institute managers and 
 their senior staffs achieve stronger programs of in- 
 teraction with industry, through sharing the experi- 
 ences and problems of other developing country 
 institutes confronted with similar situations. Fur- 
 ther, it has been the author's hope that the study 
 will assist interested persons, institutions, and or- 
 ganizations in the advanced countries to better un- 
 derstand the unique although complex problems 
 facing the developing country institutes, and thus 
 devise more appropriate and meaningful programs 
 of assistance. The objectives of the study have 
 been to: (1) Analyze a variety of approaches to in- 
 dustrial research which have been tried; (2) identify 
 those factors which have contributed or inhibited 
 effective coupling of industrial research institutes 
 with industry and developmental interests; (3) dif- 
 ferentiate between those types of constraints to 
 development of viable institutes which are country- 
 specific and those common problems which have 
 limited the value of these institutes regardless of 
 their geographical location. During the course of 
 the study, some 50 research centers in 20 coun- 
 tries have been visited.

 10-year old oldfield site on thirty-six 0.07 ha plots 
 arranged within 6 experimental blocks. Irrigation 
 levels of 0, 5, and 10 cm/week of secondary efflu- 
 ent were used. Harvest treatments included no 
 harvest, one harvest in June, and two harvests in 
 June and September. Mass balances were con- 
 structed for phosphorus and nitrogen for ail treat- 
 ments. The oldfield was very effective at 
 wastewater renovation at all levels of irrigation and 
 for all harvest treatments through most of the 
 growing season. Nitrate-N concentrations in soil 
 water leaching past the 120 cm depth remained 
 well below the 10 mg/l drinking water standard 
 except during September and October on the un- 
 harvested plots. Phosphorus remained at back- 
 ground levels on all plots at the 120 cm depth. The 
 irrigated harvested plots were dominated by quack 
 grass (Agropyron repens) while the unharvested, 
 
 irrigated plots were dominated by goldenrod (Soli- 
 dago sp.). Vegetation response and plant species 
 interactions are discussed.

 These five development success stories may in- 
 spire efforts to improve the living conditions in vil- 
 lages. Local participation in planning and carrying 
 out improvements obtained good results. Success- 
 ful deep wells were dug in Patuduase and Apam, 
 Ghana, and a popular literacy compaign complet- 
 ed. In northern Ghana, villages built their own irri- 
 gation system for rice growing under the tutelage 
 of development personnel. In Igan Alade, Nigeria, 
 the villagers were inspired to build themselves an 
 auditorium, and in Lagos, a youth club was estab- 
 lished which was then used in self-help schemes.

 frequently suggested as solutions to rural or indi-

 both the technologist and the planner where to go 
 for more detailed information and what kinds of re- 
 search and development are needed before a par- 
 ticular device or process is ready for use. Thus, it 
 should be of considerable assistance in evaluating 
 the potential of each energy source in each candi- 
 date situation. This is the French edition of the 
 original report which was printed in 1 976.

 helping them deal more effectively with some of 
 the crucial development decisions that must be 
 made. It deals with the problem of making a ratio- 
 nal selection of specific types of manufacturing in- 
 dustries likely to be most effective in raising the 
 productivity and the living level of an area under 
 development. The manual does this by proposing 
 a method of analysis rather than by analyzing the 
 industrial development opportunities and problems 
 of a particular country or region.

 ment and disposal of wastewaters, regardless of 
 the site constraints. The studies were subdivided 
 into several categories including characterization 
 of household and commercial wastewaters, as- 
 sessment of wastewater treatment alternatives, 
 evaluation of soils for treatment and disposal of

 The effects of heat on man and other elements of 
 tropical and subtropical climate are discussed. 
 Housing is examined as a protection against the 
 climate. Methods to reduce the conduction of radi- 
 ant heat from the sun and to reduce convection of 
 heat and humid outside air by shades, awnings, 
 and architectural design, as well as ventilation, air 
 conditioning, and evaporation cooling are ex- 
 plained. The adaption of design to accommodate 
 alternative hot-dry and hot-humid climates and 
 functional considerations are also reviewed.

 A summary is presented of the progress to date on 
 engineering experimentation involved with the cul- 
 ture of the fresh water prawn, Macrobrachium ro- 
 senbergii. The use of large rectangular tanks for 
 treated culture water is possible, using silk mesh 
 screens to separate larvae from the sump zone 
 where the culture water is removed for treatment 
 and returned to the animal portion of the tank. 
 Large cylindrical tanks can be used in a recirculat- 
 ing flow system for larval culture and small cylindri- 
 cal tanks are currently in use at MRRI. A large tank 
 and system as described here has not been tested 
 with larvae. Similarity laws can be used to predict 
 performance of prototype tanks from the results of 
 model tests. Several desirable and preferred fea- 
 tures of the ponds in use in South Carolina for the 
 culture of Macrobrachium shrimp have been identi- 
 fied after three seasons of experience. The oper- 
 ation of an air lift pump at a point of optimal hydrau- 
 lic performance will also provide maximum aer- 
 ation efficiency in low lift pumping.

 An experimental watercress-crayfish culture 
 system was developed which received a nutrient- 
 rich effluent from a trout hatchery. The watercress 
 system effectively stripped nutrients from effluent 
 water and provided acceptable growth of water- 
 cress The watercress removed 98% of the nitrate- 
 nitrogen and 92% of the total phosphorous reduc- 
 ing the level of these two nutrients to near the level 
 observed in the hatchery inflow supply. However, 
 there was a significant increase of particulate or- 
 ganic matter in the effluent from the watercress 
 growing-beds. Feeding trials indicated that water- 
 cress combined with a protein supplement pro- 
 vides a satisfactory diet for crayfish in terms of 
 both growth rate and mortality. A detailed analysis 
 of the growth of young crayfish from hatching 
 through the fifth molt demonstrated that early 
 growth involves two phases. The optimal tempera- 
 ture for growth appeared to be in the range of 17- 
 22C A successful system of stripping eggs from 
 the female and hatching them in a drip-type egg 
 incubator was developed which yielded a 90 /o 
 hatch and normal metamorphosis.

 An experimental watercress-crayfish polyculture 
 system is described. The watercress bed receives 
 nutrient-rich effluent from a connecting trout 
 hatchery and effectively strips nitrates, ammonia, 
 and phosphorous from the waters. The harvested 
 watercress also provides a clean and easy food 
 source for crayfish. Preliminary feeding trials indi- 
 cate that the watercress combined with protein 
 supplement provides a satisfactory crayfish diet in 
 terms of both growth and mortality. The develop- 
 ment of watercress-crayfish polyculture is eco- 
 nomically promising because of three valuable out- 
 puts-cleaner water, watercress, and crayfish.

 Major findings of an investigation into the concept 
 of nutrient and energy recovery from a swine 
 waste management system are reported. Algae 
 and bacteria were used to convert swine manure 
 into methane-rich fuel gas and supplemental pro- 
 tein for animal feed. Waste heat from electricity 
 generating plants was simulated to test its value in 
 enhancing the biological recovery of nutrients and 
 energy The experimental facility was built adja- 
 cent to the Swine Research Center at Oregon 
 State University and consisted of animal quarters 
 with solid concrete floor and gutter to house 50 
 pigs, an anaerobic digester with a volume of 14 cu 
 m and 1 2 outdoor algae basins with a combined 
 surface area of 24 sq m and a combined volume of 
 6 000 I. Manure was removed from the animal 
 quarters by a gutter flushing system. The solids 
 were separated from the liquids by gravity settling 
 and then pumped into the digester for solubiliza- 
 tion and recovery of biogas. The liquid phase of the 
 diluted manure was pumped into the outdoor 
 basins to serve as nutrient substrate for the growth 
 of the high temperature strain 21 1 /8K of Chlorella 
 vulgaris as the predominant algal species. The 
 algal biomass was concentrated by centnfugation 
 and freeze dried. Its nutritional value as a protein 
 source was determined by feeding trials with Long- 
 Evans rats.

 and 1974. In 1975 and 1976 the rate was 0, 1.0, 
 2.0 and 4.0 gph per tree. Duration of irrigation 
 varied with tree size. In 1975, all plots (except blue- 
 berry) were subdivided for different rates of nitro- 
 gen application through the trickle system. Yield 
 responses indicated that a rate of 2.0 gph was best 
 for all apple cultivars except R. I. Greening, which 
 showed the best response at 4.0 gph. Increase in 
 yield with increased amounts of water was not sig- 
 nificant for sour cherry, significant for peach, while 
 plum, sweet cherry and blueberry showed no in- 
 crease. Nitrogen application test results indicated 
 that the amount of nitrogen could be reduced 50% 
 if applied through the trickle system in June.

 rate was 1.27 mg/l/day (duckweed lagoons) and 
 0.82 mg/l/day for controls. Ammonium reduction 
 was 84% greater in the duckweed lagoons during 
 winter. Phosphorus reduction in duckweed la- 
 goons, though significantly different from controls, 
 was insufficient to meet water quality standards.

 Two distinct, yet related studies were conducted to 
 determine the technical and economic feasibility of 
 using solar energy as the source of heat for the 
 anaerobic digestion process. Retrofitting a solar 
 energy collection and heat transfer system to a di- 
 gester at Annapolis, Maryland was proven feasible 
 in the first part of the study and the concept of 
 using solar energy for digester heating throughout 
 the United States, including Fairbanks, Alaska, 
 was shown to be economically feasible in the 
 second part of the study. The Part I study com- 
 pared five (5) types of flat plate collectors and se- 
 lected the cost effective design to supply approxi- 
 mately 90 percent of the heat load to maintain di- 
 gester operating temperatures of 32C to 38C. 
 Three flat plate collectors of varying efficiencies 
 were evaluated for use at numerous locations in 
 the United States. The study showed that opti- 
 mum-sized flat plate collectors can provide from 
 82 to 97 percent of the total annual digester heat, 
 the higher percentages being applicable to areas 
 of higher solar radiation. The Part II study devel- 
 oped specific guidelines for determining the opti- 
 mum size and conceptual design for a solar heat- 
 ing system for any size sludge digester at any loca- 
 tion.

 Results are presented on the status of foodstuff 
 packaging in Chile; marketing projections are tabu- 
 lated. The study, limited to 33 categories of food- 
 stuffs selected by the three sponsoring agencies, 
 gives recommendations on various aspects of 
 foodstuff packaging for domestic consumption and 
 for export. Research methodology includes ques- 
 tionnaires and summaries of plant visits to canner- 
 ies, bottlers, supermarkets, retailers, and export- 
 ers. Attention is focused upon milk products, fruits, 
 soups, seafood, margarine and fats, rice, coffee, 
 sugar, crackers, chocolates, carbonated bever- 
 ages, beer, wine, and bread. Metal packaging in 
 many cases is associated with lost labels, denting, 
 difficulty in opening, and inadequate sanitary pro- 
 tection. It was concluded that Chilean packaging 
 compares well with that of other South American 
 countries, but is less varied in form, size, and mate- 
 
 rials than European and North American countries. 
 Labels do compare well, and in the future they will 
 be more colorful and attractive. Plastic bottles 
 should be more carefully designed in regard to 
 capping to prevent infiltration of foreign matter and 
 spillage. The Chilean government regulates mate- 
 rials, design, size, and sanitary provisions; it uti- 
 lizes data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administra- 
 tion, as well as from its own experts. Future pro- 
 grams will cover increased automation methods 
 and reduced costs resulting from improved physi- 
 cal distribution methods. (Portions of this docu-

 Foodstuff packaging in Chile is discussed in terms 
 of quality control, physical distribution, marketing, 
 pricing, supply and demand, and modern technol- 
 ogy. Chapter XVI provides plans for creating an in- 
 stitute of packaging and packing; it details budget, 
 staffing, organization, and activities. Topics high- 
 lighted are economics of physical distribution of 
 foodstuffs, critical analysis of packaging in export- 
 ing, comparative price analysis between Chile and 
 other countries, existing international regulations, 
 price analysis and its impact on selling price, rela- 
 tionship between packaging cost and selling price 
 compared with the United States. Conclusions and 
 recommendations are presented on this study and 
 10 months of subsequent field work. Attention 
 should be directed toward improvements in pack- 
 aging as a protection for foodstuffs, physical distri- 
 bution, and marketing. It is stressed that the cost 
 of packaging bears a significant relationship with 
 selling price of foodstuffs. It is estimated that costs 
 of physical distribution account for 6-12% of the 
 selling price. In Chile, the per capita consumption 
 of canned or bottled beverages and foodstuffs is 
 US $8 per year, compared with US $46 in the 
 United States. This indicates possible future 
 growth and expanded economic activity for Chile in 
 the food industry. (Portions of this document are

 The paper is primarily concerned with the process 
 which the practitioner uses to make the concept of 
 community development a reality. The process re- 
 quires that the job of the community development 
 worker be fundamentally educational: to help the 
 people acquire the attitudes, skills, and ideas that 
 will enable them to take democratic action based 
 on self-directed citizen responsibility and initiative.

 This volume reports on the first experimental year 
 of a research project designed to investigate, in a 
 detailed and systematic way, the use of radio to 
 teach mathematics in the primary-school class- 
 rooms of a developing country. Extensive collec- 
 tion of student response data, along with an explic- 
 it model for curriculum development, makes possi- 
 ble the type of study previously absent from the 
 research literature. In July 1973 the United States 
 Agency for International Development (AID) con- 
 tracted with the Institute for Mathematical Studies 
 in the Social Sciences (IMSSS) at Stanford Univer- 
 sity to carry out a two-stage project. During the first 
 stage, which occupied the first funding year, mem- 
 bers of the Institute staff visited several developing 
 countries, whose governments had expressed an 
 interest in teaching by radio, and selected from 
 among them a suitable project site. The second 
 stage of the project, undertaken in conjunction 
 with the Ministry of Education of Nicaragua, is de- 
 voted to the development and evaluation of the 
 radio instructional system. At present, the Radio 
 Mathematics Project operates with financial sup- 
 port from both AID and the Government of Nicara- 
 gua.

 On August 22 and 23, 1972, a meeting entitled 
 'Earth Science Aid to Developing Countries' was 
 held in Montreal, Canada, as Symposium 2 of the 
 24th International Geological Congress. The par- 
 ticipants in this symposium represented a broad 
 cross-section from both donor and recipient coun- 
 tries, and discussed a wide range of topics relating 
 to aid programs in general. At the final session of 
 the Symposium a proposal was made to establish 
 an international committee with the objective of 
 providing further opportunities for the exchange of 
 ideas and opinions on earth science aid. (Portions

 (Sarotherodon sp.) hybrids. Channel catfish cul- 
 tured in combinations with various tilapia species 
 and hybrids was more economically desirable than 
 the monoculture of catfish. A manual to provide in- 
 formation to those interested in aquaculture was 
 developed for distribution to the aquaculture indus-

 Strategies for balancing growth among several 
 economic sectors of a developing nation are out- 
 lined. The report focuses on programs to increase 
 food production in the developing world and 
 covers four separate sectors of a developing econ- 
 omy: traditional agriculture, advancing agriculture, 
 the rural nonfarm economy, and the urban econo- 
 my. The report notes that when new technology is 
 introduced to any one sector, planners often over- 
 look unintended side effects, some favorable and 
 some not, on the other three sectors. Multifaceted 
 programs designed to increase technology in rural 
 and urban industries as well as in agriculture may 
 help to alleviate some of the side effects.

 The detailed results of the past two years of work 
 on this project are presented in a series of 1 6 re- 
 ports. This final report is a technical and detailed 
 summary of the results given in reports 1 through 
 13, including a brief narrative discussion of the 
 theoretical framework that provides a congruence 
 to the particulars given in the reports. The princi- 
 ples of resource management suggest that deci- 
 sions relating to comprehensive planning fall into 
 three general categories: technical alternatives, 
 ecological choices (natural environment), and in- 
 stitutional choices (social and cultural organiza- 
 tion). Detailed studies of proto-typical subsystems 
 relating to each class of decision were carried out 
 as part of the overall effort. The results of these 
 studies and their relationship to the overall con- 
 ceptual framework are summarized in this report.

 A workshop was convened to enable people with 
 interests or experience in appropriate technology 
 to examine and document locally-focused issues 
 in this field, and to contribute recommendations for 
 a research agenda and program guidelines which 
 could be considered in planning a distinct research 
 program in appropriate technology. Appropriate 
 technology is defined here as a socio-technical 
 process which encompasses technology design, 
 assessment, and use. Issues to be examined were 
 identified after review of concerns expressed by 
 those who responded to a previous survey fo- 
 cused on local activities in appropriate technology, 
 and after review of current or planned programs in 
 different federal agencies. Six functional areas 
 were chosen as subjects for examination: housing, 
 local economic development, energy, waste dis- 
 posal, health, and food. Participants documented 
 local experience and concerns in the form of case 
 studies and individually and collectively developed 
 ideas through the workshops which were used to 
 develop a research agenda and program guide- 
 lines. Using this information, the workshop con- 
 venor identified 27 basic research questions, and 
 1 high priority questions for the agenda.

 Adequate technology exists to process gas, oil, 
 and coal as feedstocks for methanol production; 
 the technology to process solid wastes is still 
 being developed. Methanol can be produced at 
 prices competitive with current premium fuel price 
 levels but, should foreign oil prices drop signifi- 
 cantly, investment capital would be hard to attract. 
 Priorities for developing conversion techniques 
 should be (1) foreign flare gas; (2) municipal solid 
 waste; (3) coal. Political and reliability consider- 
 ations might rule out foreign sources. Uses of 
 methanol fuel that become technically and eco- 
 
 nomically ready in 5-10 years could absorb all 
 methanol that might be available at competitive 
 prices. Public policy could motivate government 
 action to develop new fuel applications, such as 
 automotive fuels. The government should share 
 the risk of developing a methanol fuels industry; a 
 number of alternatives to guarantee a market for 
 methanol might be considered.

 Osmosis occurs when two solutions of differing os- 
 molar concentrations are separated by a mem- 
 brane permeable to the solvent but not to the so- 
 lutes. In osmosis, water flows spontaneously from 
 the low concentration source solution to the high 
 concentration driving solution. Forward osmosis is 
 examined as a low-technology, low-energy use 
 process for hydration and dehydration of aqueous 
 solutions. The fundamental mechanical device is a 
 continuous counterflow extractor which incorpo- 
 rates a semipermeable membrane separating the 
 source and driving solutions. The counterflow 
 design permits maximum water recovery from the 
 source solution and maximum dilution of the driv- 
 ing solution. The nonlinear differential equations 
 describing the water and solute flows in the extrac- 
 tor are solved using analytical and numerical tech- 
 niques. The resulting mathematical models con- 
 tain design equations which can be used to deter- 
 mine the optimum membrane transport character- 
 istics, optimum membrane size, and the asymmet- 
 ric membrane orientation which minimizes concen- 
 tration polarization. Theoretical and experimental 
 results compare well. Two applications discussed 
 in detail are the production of potable water from 
 seawater using human nutrients, and fertilizer- 
 driven forward osmosis (FDFO) for converting 
 saline water to irrigation water.

 This publication is divided into three reports: (a) 
 potential for specialization in the farming areas of 
 Central American countries, (b) the farming sub- 
 sector in Central America, and (c) regional cooper- 
 ation for the development of Central American 
 forest resources. Between 1974 and 1976, in co- 
 operation with the respective governments, a tri- 
 partite study was made of the rural and farming 
 sectors in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, 
 Honduras, and Nicaragua. The purpose of this 
 publication is to delineate certain problems 
 common to two or more of the countries which 
 may, to a certain extent, be resolved through 
 mutual cooperation. Increased productivity in 
 cattle and crop raising, and hence in income, de- 
 pends upon the degree of specialization of the five 
 countries. In each country there are significant dif- 
 ferences in soil, erosion, temperature, and precipi- 
 tation. To offset such differences, efforts are being 
 made to redistribute rural populations to less ex- 
 ploited areas. Trade restrictions on grain crops 
 have hindered optimum utilization of resources 
 and a local shortage of some foodstuff leads to 
 price fluctuations that are undesirable. It is stated 
 that investment and development programs can 
 be aimed toward projects apt to promote competi- 
 tion leading to better organization of total re- 
 sources.

 During August and September 1974, a tripartite 
 study was made for the purpose of assisting the 
 government of El Salvador to study the strategy, 
 policies, programs, and projects for increasing pro- 
 duction in cattle and crop raising activities, and for 
 raising the standard of living in rural areas. This 
 report summarizes the background and rationale 
 which gave rise to the principal suggestions and 
 comments. Eight technical annexes, published in 
 two separate volumes, provide a more detailed dis- 
 cussion of certain aspects of this general report. 
 This report and its annexes are part of a series on 
 the five Central American countries. The following 
 main topics are outlined: national economy in rela- 
 tion to the cattle and crop raising sector; trends in 
 the production of grain and cattle; socioeconomic 
 factors affecting development; organization of 
 agencies concerned with agriculture; soil re- 
 sources in relation to production; incentives for ag- 
 ricultural development; and, strategy for rural and 
 farming development.

 As the first in a series of new publications, a retro- 
 spective index of bibliographic data is presented 
 on agricultural planning and development. Rapid 
 access to such information, by sectors, is needed 
 by Tunisia in order to prevent useless duplication 
 of research efforts. Documentation representing 
 40,000 reports, dating from 1 947, was gathered by 
 the National Center of Agricultural Documentation; 
 it was then analyzed and microfiched. Information 
 from these reports is disseminated through retro- 
 spective indexes. These data base of documents 
 and microfiche can be accessed according to the 
 need of users. For example, a user interested in 
 ground water may formulate several questions 
 which are then developed into a search strategy. 
 The end product is a specialized bibliography cor- 
 responding to that query. Each bibliographic cita- 
 tion contains a brief analytical summary which is 
 composed of descriptive key words. Some exam- 
 ples of key words are sociological survey, techni- 
 cal report, synthesis. The key words are arranged 
 so as to form a type of annotation. The original lan- 
 guage of the document is indicated. Documents 
 selected by the user, according to bibliographic ac- 
 cession number, may be furnished either in micro- 
 fiche or in hard copy reproduction. The retrospec- 
 tive index also provides subject matter and person- 
 al author indexes. An additional index provides a 
 list of accession numbers for each corporate 
 author.

 An analysis is presented of all sectors concerned 
 with scientific and technical information in 
 
 Panama. Survey recommendations are provided 
 for information services in Panama, which are nei- 
 ther organized nor centralized. Research method- 
 ology includes interviews and survey instruments 
 for existing library resources in such fields as 
 mining, health, telecommunications, education, 
 farming, and housing. Recommendations to fill the 
 needs assessment include bibliographic bulletins, 
 interlibrary loan, query response from a pertinent 
 clearinghouse, and training of subject-matter li- 
 brarians. Microform-, audiovisual-, and reprogra- 
 phic equipment is to be provided. Holdings of spe- 
 cific libraries are listed. For example, the University 
 of Panama holds Chemical Abstracts, Nuclear Sci- 
 ence Abstracts, and Excerpta Medica. The second 
 part of this library survey and analysis quantifies 
 the resources needed to implement the foregoing 
 recommendations. Specific goals are the estab- 
 lishment of an industrial information center, an ex- 
 tension service to provide technical information to 
 outlying sectors, and of data banks such as that 
 being developed for agriculture. Strategy to obtain 
 these goals includes a central coordinating office; 
 this office should then become a member of inter- 
 national documentation organizations. Each Minis- 
 try should catalog its own publications; this would 
 provide a basis for exchange of technical informa- 
 tion in Panama, as well as selective dissemination 
 of information with clearinghouses abroad.

 Rural youth work has been accepted as a way to 
 introduce new ideas into rural life and train leaders 
 and citizens for the future. Rural youth work is edu- 
 cational and aims at the total development of 
 young people to prepare them for their role as 
 useful citizens. A successful program is valuable to 
 the youth who participate, the families involved, 
 the community, and their country. Rural youth work 
 is an effective way to close the gap between what 
 is known about agriculture and home economics 
 and what is actually practiced. This handbook 
 shows how to establish, operate, and evaluate a 
 rural youth program. Projects and special activities 
 for youth groups are also discussed.

 The term community development is used to de- 
 scribe the approach many governments have em- 
 ployed to teach their village people and to make 
 more effective use of local initiative and energy for 
 increased production and better living standards. 
 This booklet specifically was planned to give in- 
 sights into aims, basic principles and elementary 
 procedures in community development on which 
 workshop procedures would be based. It offers a 
 common-sense approach to local village develop- 
 ment procedures.

 Rapid population growth in developing countries 
 impedes efforts to improve the quality of life. Many 
 governmental, international, and private and volun- 
 tary organizations provide population assistance to 
 an ever-increasing number of countries. Cumula- 
 tive assistance could now total about $2 billion; the 
 United States alone provided about $1.2 billion in 
 the 1 965-78 period. Because of the complexity of 
 the problem and the many organizations involved, 
 systematic coordination of assistance is essential 
 to ensure that programs are as efficient and effec- 
 tive as possible. GAO recommends that the 
 Agency for International Development work with 
 the other major contributors and the developing 
 countries to improve coordination, to reach agree- 
 ment on leadership, strategy, and program respon- 
 sibility, and to make sure that all participants are 
 adequately informed of each other's activities.

 The study is devoted to assessing both the poten- 
 tial of food loss reduction efforts and their limita- 
 tions. It summarizes existing work and information 
 about losses of the major food crops and fish; dis- 
 cusses some of the economic and social factors 
 involved; identifies major areas of need; and sug- 
 gests various policy and program options for de- 
 veloping countries and technical assistance agen- 
 cies. The study confirms that there is no known 
 simple, inexpensive technology that can, by itself, 
 make a profound impact on postharvest losses. 
 On the contrary, postharvest food conservation 
 can be achieved only through a combination of lo- 
 cation-specific organization, problem identifica- 
 tion, training, information, and adapted technology. 
 Good conservation practice must be applied on a 
 sustained basis, with continual refinement in re- 
 sponse to new information. Significant worldwide 
 reductions in food losses will result as the aggre- 
 gate of these sustained national efforts, which 
 should be given all possible support by bilateral 
 and international technical assistance agencies.

 A seminar was held on 12-13 February 1975, in 
 Colombia, S.A., to discuss the development of in- 
 dustrial technology. The main objectives were to 
 form an industrial science and technology policy, 
 and to analyze problems related to this develop- 
 ment in view of the country's need to raise its 
 socio-economic level. Seminar topics included fi- 
 nancing of technological development, the indus- 
 trial technology system regarding promotion of ex- 
 ports, Colombia's position within the Andean 
 Group, technology and the industrial sector, and 
 the relationship of foreign businesses with Colom- 
 bia's technological development. Conclusions and 
 recommendations covered financing through 
 budgetary allocation; strengthening local techno- 
 logical capability (e.g., constructing plants and pro- 
 viding consulting services); strengthening domes- 
 tic demand for science and technology works (e.g., 
 acquisition and analysis of technological informa- 
 tion); directing such activities toward priorities of 
 the country; and the formation of a national sci- 
 ence and technology policy.

 tions involved in a national policy on science and 
 technology: those setting policy and furthering sci- 
 entific works, those regulating the import of tech- 
 nology, and those directly involved in science and 
 technology activities. The second article discusses 
 the good relations involving science, technology 
 and the university in terms of politics, economics, 
 and governmental authority. Based on confer- 
 ences, interviews and observation, the third article 
 discusses technology dissemination in Japan and 
 its pertinence to Colombia. The fourth article deals 
 with technology assessment related to Latin Amer- 
 ica. Methodology and alternative technology are 
 briefly discussed. Ten years of work of the commit- 
 tee on technology transfer is briefly covered in the 
 fifth article.

 It appears that properly frozen and protectively-

 fish flakes, since no appreciable difference has 
 been noticed by those comparing flakes made 
 from fresh fish and flakes from frozen fish. There is 
 already evidence that well-prepared fish flakes are 
 capable of improving other seafoods when used in 
 pre-cooked products. The investigators are in- 
 creasingly disposed to insist that fish flakes can 
 become valued ingredients for high-quality prod- 
 ucts and should not be considered 'extenders.'

 Annual harvests of the black mullet species (Mugil 
 cephalus) are approximately 30 million pounds in 
 Florida. Utilization of mullet has been limited, how- 
 ever, primarily because of the rapid on-set of ranci- 
 
 dity during storage. The species aiso has a strong 
 flavor which is objectionable to many people. 
 Other drawbacks include a color problem and a 
 low flesh yield. The 'Sea Dog', a sausage product, 
 was designed to overcome these limitations of the 
 mullet species. The sausage manufacture requires 
 no special equipment, particularly important in 
 Florida where most seafood dealers are small 
 businessmen who cannot afford large capital ex- 
 penses. The sausage studied here differs from the 
 previous products in that it contains neither added 
 starch nor fat. Another distinguishing feature is the 
 addition of up to 30% (by weight) of rehydrated 
 textured soy flour as an extender to decrease man- 
 ufacturing costs. The purpose of this study was to 
 examine the effect of three factors (soy, water, and 
 sodium tripolyphosphate) on the sensory accept- 
 ability of the sausage product.

 The sausage product ('Sea Dog' made with 
 minced mullet and textured soy flour) was de- 
 signed to overcome the drawbacks of the mullet 
 species as well as to be acceptable to the U.S. 
 population. The purpose of this study was to esti- 
 mate the shelf life of the product at 35 F to deter- 
 mine the feasibility of marketing. The storage study 
 was designed to compare the effect of (1) hand 
 filleted or mechanically deboned mullet flesh, (2) a 
 liquid smoke flavoring at levels of 0% or 0.5% and 
 (3) a textured soy flour at the 0% or 19.5% level. 
 Deboned flesh was studied because the recent de- 
 velopment of mechanical deboning machines for 
 fish can substantially increase flesh yields thus re- 
 ducing the cost of raw materials. Liquid smoke fla- 
 voring was included because it has been reported 
 to inhibit rancidity developemnt and microbial 
 growth while improving the sensory acceptability.

 Yu-sone, a seasoned semi-dried, and ground fish 
 flake produced for centuries by hand operations in 
 Oriental cultures can be manufactured from fish of 
 any size that have a relatively low fat content. The

 gutted, steamed or boiled, drained, deboned, and 
 disintegrated into small pieces. The loose fish fiber 
 is then sauteed with flour, sugar, soy sauce, and 
 traditional spices until dry and spongy. Two spe- 
 cies of fish, mullet and croaker, that are landed in 
 abundance along with Southeastern and Gulf 
 coasts of the United States were chosen as raw 
 materials for the pilot studies in Yu-sone produc- 
 tion. Both species are underutilized. Two extremes 
 in fat content were chosen to ascertain any differ-

 Tilapia aurea are especially suited for use in 
 sewage/aquaculture facilities, since once past fin- 
 gerling size, they feed directly on phytoplankton. 
 The incorporation of tilapia into ponds whose pri- 
 mary purpose is sewage treatment may actually 
 improve the water quality. Tilapia have potential as 
 a component of livestock feed, fish meal or directly 
 as human food, although there is not a developed 
 market for tilapia in the United States. The require- 
 ments of the fish meal industry best fit the charac- 
 teristics of tilapia and may represent the most 
 likely early market. This study examines the eco- 
 nomic relationships in a commercial poultry egg 
 production facility with a liquid manure handling 
 system that provides for the growth and harvesting 
 of tilapia. The actual structure of the poultry 
 sewage/aquaculture facility is hypothetical since a 
 commercial facility does not exist at present. How- 
 ever, the major individual components of a pro- 
 posed system are well understood from current re- 
 search and the important interface of poultry 
 sewage and tilapia growth is currently under inten- 
 sive study.

 Wind energy, air and water can be combined to 
 make anhydrous ammonia and ammonium nitrate, 
 two important nitrogeneous fertilizers that are usu- 
 ally synthesized using natural gas as the primary 
 feedstock. In the study concept, wind energy is 
 captured by a wind turbine and converted to elec- 
 tricity. The electricity generates hydrogen and 
 oxygen by water electrolysis. The hydrogen is 
 stored in sufficient quantity to serve as chemical 
 feedstock and energy to manufacture anhydrous 
 ammonia or ammonium nitrate solution.

 The National Cropping Plan of Iran is reviewed to 
 define the critical improvements in farming tech-

 Changes that depend on the education of Iran's 
 small farmers are isolated and organized into a 
 series of informational programs for television or 
 radio. Iranian and International Agricultural experts 
 outline over 150 program segments covering the 
 critical practices. The program segments are orga- 
 nized into eight broadcast area schedules to suit 
 the agro-climatic conditions and crop selections in 
 different parts of the country. The procedures to 
 organize the program information and broadcast 
 schedules and much of the subject content itself is 
 felt to be applicable to other developing agricultur- 
 al countries.

 This experiment demonstrates the physical abili- 
 ties of earthworms to convert sizable amounts of 
 
 municipal sewage sludges into worm manure, a 
 stabilized soil known as castings. The process of 
 composting wastes with domesticated earthworms 
 under controlled conditions, called vermicompost- 
 ing, is believed by the investigator to be an efficient 
 and economical method of recycling sludges and 
 other organic wastes. The report describes the 
 conditions of the experiment and a summary of 
 findings. These include longevity tests of red- 
 worms in sludge, pathogen tests, handling and 
 harvesting techniques, plant growth comparisons, 
 breeding rates in sludge, optimum worm density, 
 product demand, heavy metals analysis, and soil 
 temperatures. In a review of principal findings it is 
 indicated that vermicomposting offers a much 
 higher degree of stabilization over other conven- 
 tional thermal composting methods. The report 
 also lists publications, conferences, and new ob- 
 jectives.

 Although grain storage program conception and 
 objectives will vary from country to country and 
 within each country, there are basic objectives 
 which will be present in every grain storage pro- 
 gram. These include: (1 ) to preserve the quantity of 
 the harvest, (2) to maintain its quality, and (3) to 
 result in the highest possible sale value for what- 
 ever grain is sold or traded. This book is designed 
 to aid in identifying storage problems and devising 
 solutions to them. The approach favors techniques 
 based on the local needs and resources of the 
 farmer. Basic subject areas discussed are the 
 maintenance of storage hygiene; the control of 
 grain moisture; and the specific control of grain 
 pests such as insects, birds, and rodents.

 Postlarval and juvenile Macrobrachium rosenbergii 
 were stocked in twelve 0.025 ha earthen ponds to 
 study the effects of stocking size and density on 
 growth and survival. The experiment was com- 
 prised of four treatments, three replicates each. 
 One treatment consisted of juveniles (0.760-0.792 
 g) stocked at 5/sq m. The remaining treatments 
 were postlarvae (0.044-0.063 g) stocked at 5, 1 0, 
 and 20/sq m. Following each four week sampling 
 interval, feeding rates were adjusted based on 
 mean body weight and an estimated 5% mortality. 
 All ponds were fed Purina Marine Ration 25 at 
 rates of 30, 15, 8, 4, 2, and 2% body weight for 
 each respective sampling interval during the 24 
 week study. Juveniles grew to a mean weight of 
 43.256 g while postlarvae reached 29.749 respec- 
 tively. Survival ranged from 38 to 92% and final 
 feed conversion ratios ranged from 1.88:1 to 
 0.96:1. The maximum equivalent production of 
 2278.61 kg/ha occurred in ponds stocked with 20/

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 Small electric generators are available that can be 
 used in building systems that will meet the needs 
 of small villages. These systems would be based 
 on the number of homes and stores to be lighted, 
 the number of street lights required, the power re- 
 quirements of local industries and the estimated 
 expansion requirements. These small electric sys- 
 tems will provide a valuable service to such vil- 
 lages by producing and distributing power at a cost 
 that the average community can afford. Under rea- 
 sonable conditions, such as those assumed for the 
 plant in this manual, either public operation or pri- 
 vate operation would be practicable. Such an elec- 
 tric plant will produce revenue to amortize the in- 
 vestment and at the same time provide an operat- 
 ing profit of more than 1 5 percent. For the entre- 
 preneur there is an opportunity to invest money, on 
 which he will earn a satisfactory return, have em- 
 ployment at a fair salary, and at the same time be 
 increasing the value of his property. This revised 
 version of the manual includes current costs of 
 labor, machinery, equipment and supplies, as well 
 as additional information relative to engineering, 
 training, safety, markets, sales, financial and eco- 
 nomic factors. The manual is designed to provide a 
 general picture of the factors which must be con- 
 sidered in establishing and operating a small-scale 
 plant of this type. It should prove useful in creating 
 interest in the subject, and serve to give enough 
 understanding of the related considerations to 
 help government officials, other leaders and busi- 
 nessmen to determine whether the potential de- 
 serves more-detailed attention.

 In its broad outline, the process on making tung- 
 sten carbide cutting tools, wire drawing dies, 
 header dies, gages and other industrial products 
 consists of preparing the powder carbide of tung- 
 sten, mixing it with a binder (such as cobalt) into 
 compacts of desired forms, and sintering these to 
 get the desired shapes, hardness, strength and 
 other attributes. Though this pattern appears 
 simple, it soon becomes evident from a detailed 
 study that the techniques involved are different 
 from those generally used in powder metallurgy. A 
 survey was made among the manufacturers of the 
 necessary equipment, and technicians experi- 
 enced in carbide making, and the steps estab- 
 lished as the pattern peculiar to this industry are 
 explained in the report. The report is one of a 
 series of reports resulting from overseas technical 
 inquiries on factory establishments, operation, 
 management, and engineering. The report is de-

 Training in Material Handling is a course which 
 points out the many opportunities that are present- 
 ed for increasing production, lowering costs and in- 
 creasing wages through application of modern 
 methods in material handling. The objective of the 
 course is to demonstrate that through the applica- 
 tion of sound practice or a well-conceived system 
 materials can be transported from and to storage 
 and through all production stages with a minimum 
 of transfer and handling. Efficiencies in both han- 
 dling and in total movement of materials avoids 
 production delays, reduces congestion, prevents 
 loss of operation or time, minimizes utilization of 
 machinery and equipment and expedites routing 
 and shipping. Industry spends enormous sums of 
 money for research and development directed to- 
 wards many types of improvement, such as design 
 engineering, cost engineering, safety engineering 
 and others, but one of the greatest opportunities 
 for reducing manufacturing cost and materially in- 
 creasing man-hour production is frequently ne- 
 glected. The aim of this course is assist supervi- 
 sors to eliminate obvious and unnecessary move- 
 ments in the handling and transporting of com- 
 modities and materials.

 Rubber soles for footwear are fabricated and com- 
 bined with shoe uppers by three general methods. 
 The first method is the forming of a patterned, un- 
 cured sole and cementing it on a fabric upper sec- 
 tion and then curing the entire assembly on a last 
 (as in a vulcanizer or autoclave). This is the con- 
 ventional method long used in making tennis 
 shoes. The second method is to join a slab (with- 
 out pattern) of rubber compound directly to a fabric 
 or leather upper section in an automatic heated 
 mold under pressure. This method employs a spe- 
 cial machine-typical of which (though varying in 
 design and merits) are the Goliath, Pinto, Bata, 
 Marvel and Desmer machines. The method de- 
 scribed in the report is to separately fabricate and 
 cure (with or without a pattern) the soling itself. 
 The cured or vulcanized soling is then attached to 
 a fabric or leather upper by cementing, sewing or 
 nailing~or combinations of these methods. The 
 report is one of a series of reports resulting from 
 overseas technical inquiries on factory operation,

 whether village-source energy warrants use on a 
 wide scale and if so, (2) what system to use to 
 match energy hardware with village needs and to 
 install it in villages together with a support system 
 that will maintain it, provide repairs and spare

 The purpose of the report is to present basic infor- 
 mation relative to the establishment in a foreign 
 country of a factory designed to produce certain 
 sizes of galvanized steel pipe. This type of pipe is 
 used for water, air, gas, oil, or other fluid lines, and 
 for structural purposes such as fence posts, scaf- 
 folding, and railings. The proposed plant is about 
 the minimum feasible size and will require a sub- 
 
 stantial capital investment and a small number of 
 skilled workers. Profitable operation in industrially 
 developing countries will depend upon the follow- 
 ing factors: (1 ) the availability of steel strip and slab 
 zinc (spelter) from nearby mills, or the presence of 
 a sufficiently large domestic market, in the ab- 
 sence of a local supply of steel and zinc, sufficient- 
 ly large to overcome the expense of imported ma- 
 terials; and (2) the availability of accessories such 
 as galvanized couplings, nipples, elbows, unions, 
 plugs, tees, guards, reducers, and bushings. Asso- 
 ciation with a facility producing the fittings would 
 be advantageous for the pipe manufacturer. The 
 report describes a plant manufacturing pipe 
 threaded on both ends and not equipped with ac- 
 cessories. The pipe may be supplied unthreaded 
 or it may be equipped with couplings or thread 
 guards at an additional cost. The report was pre- 
 pared to answer overseas technical inquiries on 
 factory operation, management, and engineering. 
 It includes brief information and cost estimates on 
 labor, machinery, equipment and supplies, as well 
 as information relative to engineering, training, 
 safety, markets, sales, financial and economic fac- 
 tors. However, the report is designed to provide 
 only a general picture of the factors that must be 
 considered in establishing and operating a factory 
 of this type. In most cases, plans for actual installa- 
 tions will require expert engineering and financial 
 advice in order to meet specific local conditions.

 Most tanneries in the United States perform two 
 functions, namely, processing the hide to pelts and 
 tanning the pelts to the finished product, leather. 
 Tanning of leather can be accomplished by any of 
 the six well-known processes: vegetable, alum, 
 chrome, oil, formaldehyde, and sulphur. The two 
 most widely used today are the vegetable and the 
 chrome. Due to the relatively large demand for 
 upper shoe leather, this manual will be developed 
 on processing hides from their raw state to finished 
 upper leather by using the two-bath chrome tan- 
 ning process. The most desirable upper leather is 
 secured from light cattle hides which weigh ap- 
 proximately 54 pounds each. These hides are pur- 
 chased by the pound, the average cost being 
 $0.13 per pound; the finished leather product is 
 sold on the square footage basis at approximately 
 $0.35 per square foot, or $0,298 per pound. The 
 tannery herein proposed will be capable of proc- 
 essing 16,000 pounds of raw hides to yield 13,500 
 square feet of finished upper leather per eight-hour 
 day, utilizing about 56 workers, and would be of 
 minimum economic size. Annual cost of hides, 
 4,000,000 pounds, at $0.13 per pound = 
 $520,000. The report was prepared to answer 
 overseas technical inquiries on factory operation,

 Because of the variety of metals used and the 
 limitless number of items that are cast, it is difficult, 
 if not impossible, to make generalized statements 
 regarding cost of production and equipment re- 
 quirements that are comprehensively accurate. 
 Because iron castings are most widely used, the 
 discussion concerns itself with what is known as 
 gray iron castings. A further complication arises in 
 that foundries are of two general types-production 
 
 and jobbing. Production foundries may be depart- 
 ments of large establishments engaged in the 
 mass production of items, of which the casting is 
 only one step in the entire process of manufacture 
 and assembly; or they may be independent found- 
 ries making many identical castings where work is 
 repetitive and the foundry process is highly mecha- 
 nized in order to secure minimum costs. Not only is 
 much of the work done on machines, but the han- 
 dling of materials is almost completely conveyor- 
 ized. The job foundry, on the other hand, stands 
 ready to produce for any customer who comes 
 along, provided the foundry has facilities suitable 
 to make the castings required. The report was pre-

 factory operation, management, and engineering.

 The report outlines the type of plant required for 
 the manufacture of metal shapes formed by 
 means of spinning and its advantages. Metal spin- 
 ning is a skillful art of folding a flat piece of pliable 
 thin sheet metal over the contours of a pattern. 
 Folding is done by applying a specific spinning tool 
 either by hand or by mechanical means to the fast- 
 rotating sheet metal. The metal may be ferrous or 
 non-ferrous. The tool can be simple or complicat- 
 ed, depending on the shape of the chuck. Present- 
 day spinning techniques permit many ways of fash- 
 ioning sheet metal shapes, and is favored by metal 
 working shops in many cases. The report was pre- 
 pared to answer overseas technical inquiries on 
 factory operation, management, and engineering. 
 It includes brief information and cost estimates on 
 labor, machinery, equipment and supplies. The 
 report is designed to provide only a general picture

 Stainless steel, a corrosion and heat resistant 
 alloy, is very suitable for the fabrication of utensils 
 to be used in restaurants, hospitals, military institu- 
 tions, industries, or homes. Small utensils of this 
 type, up to 5 inches in diameter, are usually 
 pressed or drawn on a light hydraulic press; while 
 those over 6 inches in diameter are spun on a 
 lathe. They may be produced in a variety of types 
 
 and sizes such as shallow or deep bowls, cups, 
 pans, and pots; and narrow or wide-necked jugs or 
 cylinders, it is suggested that only simple shapes 
 be processed at first to suit the local needs. Later, 
 the types of items can be widely diversified, and 
 the production rate increased to comply with an 
 expanding domestic market. The plant proposed 
 herein is about the minimum feasible size. It will 
 require a modest capital investment in machinery 
 and tools, and a small labor force of skilled metal 
 workers. The report was prepared to answer over-

 The purpose of the report is to present basic infor- 
 mation relative to the establishment of a small 
 copper tubing plant in a foreign country. This plant 
 is designed to produce seamless, thin-walled, flexi- 
 ble, copper tubing by the extrusion method only. 
 This tubing is generally used with solder type fit- 
 tings, requiring no threads, and comes in two 
 types: K (heavy duty), and L (light duty), the only 
 difference being the wall thickness. The report is 
 based on the manufacture of type K only, which is 
 suitable for general plumbing and heating pur- 
 poses, underground usage, and for gas, steam, 
 and oil lines. This plant, which is about the mini- 
 mum feasible size, will require a substantial capital 
 investment; however, it can be operated by a rela- 
 tively small number of skilled workers. Profitable 
 operation in industrially developing countries will 
 depend upon two main factors: (1) the availability 
 of locally mined and refined copper to provide low 
 cost ingots thus enabling the plant to export its 
 products; and (2) the presence of a sufficiently 
 large domestic market, in the absence of domestic 
 copper, to overcome the expense of imported 
 ingots. Association of this tubing plant with a 
 copper wire drawing facility would result in consid- 
 erable savings and increased profits since the 
 tubing extruder could produce the 5/16 inch 
 copper rod required by the wire plant. The report 
 was prepared to answer overseas technical inquir- 
 ies on factory operation, management, and engi- 
 neering. It includes brief information and cost esti- 
 mates on labor, machinery, equipment and sup- 
 plies, as well as information relative to engineering, 
 training, safety, markets, sales, financial and eco- 
 nomic factors. However, the report is designed to 
 provide only a general picture of the factors that 
 must be considered in establishing and operating a 
 factory of this type. In most cases, plans for actual 
 installations will require expert engineering and fi- 
 nancial advice in order to meet specific local con- 
 ditions.

 Reforestation efforts are begun for the important 
 reasons of conserving and protecting, and to in- 
 crease production of forestry resources. Refores- 
 tation projects have been of great importance over 
 the past few years in Africa. This manual is an at- 
 tempt to present some current examples of forest- 
 ry programs in West Africa. It is based upon the 
 collective experiences of foresters and of local 
 farmers and herders. Many of the problems of re- 
 forestation of dry areas are the same worldwide. 
 Presented in the manual are methods and plan- 
 ning guides which can be of great benefit in the 
 arid areas of the world.

 The manual covers tools for the farm that are used 
 through the application of human effort. It does not 
 encompass farm implements that are operated 
 through animal or mechanical energy. The primary 
 process used in the production of these farm hand 
 tools in the plant discussed is forging. Because the 
 volume of production covered by this manual will 
 not be sufficient to justify costly drop forging equip- 
 ment and its accompanying expensive dies, the 
 process of hammer forging by power hammers is 
 proposed. This process is essentially the art of 
 blacksmithing. In addition some of the skill re- 
 quired by the blacksmith to form properly the arti- 
 cle he is forging is transferred to the dies used in 
 the power hammers. These dies have simple con- 
 tours in them that tend to produce the desired 
 shape automatically. Nevertheless, a fairly high 
 degree of skill is required on the part of the ham- 
 merman who operates a power hammer. In addi- 
 tion to power hammers, a mechanical forging 
 press is also required to obtain uniformity in the 
 shape of certain tools and to produce shapes that 
 would otherwise be very difficult to obtain. The 
 other operations and pieces of equipment needed 
 in the proposed plant are also discussed. The 
 report was prepared to answer overseas technical 
 inquiries on factory operation, management, and 
 engineering. It includes brief information and cost 
 estimates on labor, machinery, equipment and

 A large supply of land and water resources; (2) 
 large investments for education that improve 
 human skills and managerial abilities; (3) develop- 
 ment and diffusion of new knowledge about agri- 
 cultural technology; (4) complementary industrial 
 development that supplies capital inputs for agri- 
 culture and nonfarm employment opportunities for 
 people not needed in agriculture; (5) a structural 
 organization of farm production and marketing that 
 provides powerful economic incentives for farmers 
 and marketing firms to increase output and pro- 
 ductivity; and (6) public and private institutional 
 services that (a) help conserve and improve natu- 
 ral resources, (b) increase the fund of knowledge 
 about improved agricultural technology, '"■) en- 
 courage capital formation and investments in agri- 
 culture, and (d) assure farm people that they will 
 share in the economic benefits of increased pro- 
 duction.

 This is an in-depth study of two major enemies: in- 
 sects and rodents. Each is discussed in detail with 
 guidelines for (1) defining the size of the problem 
 and (2) protecting grain by both chemical and non- 
 chemical means. This volume includes dose and 
 use information for a variety of pesticides, as well 
 as suggestions for preparing materials to be used 
 in audio-visual presentations.

 The report presents the background and recent 
 developments of the new high-yielding more nutri- 
 tive corn types and explains their significance in 
 food-short countries among malnourished popula- 
 tions. This new high lysine corn out-yields native 
 corn types and has more than double the nutritive 
 value of ordinary corn with protein quality essen- 
 
 tially equal to that of skim milk. Worldwide develop- 
 ment and acceptance have been relatively rapid. 
 Unlike ordinary corn, these new types are not defi- 
 cient in two essential amino acids-lysine and tryto- 
 phan.

 The purpose of the report is to present basic infor- 
 mation for establishing a Hooked Rug plant in a 
 foreign country. This industry is peculiarly adapted 
 to locations where wage rates are low since only 
 $260 for machinery and equipment is required and 
 only sixteen workers, direct and indirect, are used. 
 It can be operated as a domestic, home, handicraft 
 employing only the members of a family or as a 
 small industry as shown in the report. The annual 
 capacity of this plant is 1 ,200 rugs, 36 inches by 56 
 inches or 14 square feet in size. The annual sales 
 value would remain about the same regardless of 
 the size of the rugs, since smaller rugs would sell 
 for proportionately more per square foot and larger 
 rugs would sell for proportionately less per square 
 foot. The report was prepared to answer overseas 
 technical inquiries on factory operation, manage- 
 ment, and engineering. It includes brief information 
 and cost estimates on labor, machinery, equip- 
 ment and supplies, as well as information relative 
 to engineering, training, safety, markets, sales, fi- 
 nancial and economic factors. However, the report 
 is designed to provide only a general picture of the 
 factors that must be considered in establishing and 
 operating a factory of this type. In most cases, 
 plans for actual installations will require expert en- 
 gineering and financial advice in order to meet 
 specific local conditions.

 The small radio manufacturing plant described in 
 the report is designed to produce radio receiving 
 sets where the demand for this product exists and 
 where such a local operation would be practicable. 
 It has several particular characteristics of special 
 merit in connection with programs for economic 
 development. The most important advantages 
 briefly stated are as follows: Small investment of 
 fixed capital; range of choice as to volume of oper- 
 ation to be undertaken; the rapidity with which the 
 project may be changed; the ease with which oper- 
 ations may be expanded in many different direc- 
 tions; the speed with which unskilled workers can 
 become proficient even though they do not have a 
 technical education; the social and cultural value 
 of the product, which should lead to its wide distri- 
 bution; the ease with which such a product can be 
 maintained; and the high proportion of production 
 cost which goes to employment of local people. 
 The report was prepared to answer overseas tech- 
 nical inquiries on factory operation, management, 
 and engineering. It includes brief information and 
 cost estimates on labor, machinery, equipment 
 and supplies, as well as information relative to en-

 The small box and shook plant described in the 
 report is intended to manufacture wooden boxes 
 and shooks where the demand for these products 
 exists and where such a local operation would be 
 practicable. The machinery and equipment recom- 
 mended is adequate to manufacture any design or 
 size of wooden box or shook. A shook is a knocked 
 down box. It includes all the wood pieces to make 
 a box, bundled together complete, ready for as- 
 sembling and nailing. The end pieces in a shook 
 are usually assembled, and nailed, if they consist 
 of more than one piece. Boxes are usually ordered 
 in the form of shooks where they are shipped long 
 distances before being used. Shipment as shooks 
 saves a great deal of shipping space, which, in 
 turn, reduces the cost of freight, and saves ware- 
 house space at the point of use. The report was 
 prepared to answer overseas technical inquiries 
 on factory operation, management, and engineer-

 The report outlines a modern plant of modest ca- 
 pacity which would most likely be applicable to the 
 average economic location where carob is grown 
 and harvested on a limited commercial basis. It is 
 assumed that the basic production is carob molas- 
 ses or syrup with sugars or sucrose still remaining 
 in the raw liquid. The processing of gums from the 
 seeds and other products from the residual pulps 
 is not considered and would require specific re- 
 ports, particularly if the refined sugars, gums and 
 residual usable pulp are to be considered end 
 products. The report is based on a daily process- 
 ing capacity of 21 ,875 lbs. of unhulled pods. This 
 would accommodate the average annual yield of 
 8,750 lbs. per acre from 300 acres, with the mill 
 operating on the basis of 120 days per year, 24 
 hours per day. The report is one of a series of re- 
 ports resulting from overseas technical inquiries on 
 factory operation, management, and engineering. 
 The report is designed to provide only a general

 In broad terms, all papers deal with technology 
 transfer in terms of industrial property, inventions, 
 patents, technical know-how, scientific and tech- 
 nological needs analyses, the R&D system, and 
 science policy in Panama. Possible problem areas 
 are identified which may result from laws (on 
 patent infringements, novelty of industrial designs 
 and models, commercial trademarks) which a de- 
 veloping country must promulgate to allow free 
 access to, and technology transfer of, scientific 
 and technical information. Rights of third parties 
 are discussed in relation to trademarks which 
 cannot be registered. For example, the well known 
 trademark of a food product should not be used to 
 identify a pesticide. The relationship between mul- 
 tinational capital investment and the foodstuffs in- 
 dustry is outlined. Priority items in the national de- 
 velopment plan are mentioned. A study of general 
 lines of generation, dissemination and integration 
 of science policy in Panama is presented as part of 
 the overall effort toward the identification and solu- 
 tion of problems; this will lead to greater develop- 
 ment of domestic science and technology in var- 
 ious sectors (tourism, agriculture, fishing, and 
 health).

 The methodology used to evaluate technology 
 transfer by importation into Peru is outlined. Meth- 
 odological methods included data collection, per- 
 sonnel training, analysis, and evaluation of results. 
 Research centered upon reducing costs to the 
 country receiving the technology, upon preventing 
 excess profits, and upon restrictive clauses (listed 
 in the document annex). Statistics are presented 
 on the specific nature of the technology to be 
 transferred, by industry, by country of origin, and 
 by the effect on the domestic industry. Concrete 
 costs in relation to their effect on balance of pay- 
 ments and on monetary benefits to Peru are out- 
 lined; stronger monetary controls are recommend- 
 ed. A legal analysis of restrictions on technology 
 transfer of 404 existing technology contracts is 
 provided. It is noted that these contracts are the 
 legal instruments by which monopolies are engen- 
 dered and proliferate. In this connection, it is sig- 
 nificant that only 10% of the patents registered in 
 Peru are of national origin. This factor, together 
 with the increasing trademark licensing, accounts 
 for growing technological dependence. Based on 
 this study Peru followed Decision 24 of the Andean 
 Group, which deals with patents and trademarks. 
 Statistics discriminate number of contracts and re- 
 strictive clauses by geographical world regions. Al- 
 though indigenous industries (iron, copper mining, 
 fishing) have been developing, it is noted, in the 
 struggle to consolidate and win new markets, ad- 
 vanced technology is required to decrease costs.

 which, in turn, gives him: - More time for planning 
 improvements, less disorder, less confusion, fewer 
 accidents, better morale. In terms of economy, 
 some direct results are: less time to train new em- 
 ployees, fewer broken tools, less defective work, 
 increased production.

 Planning and control of production as well as of 
 costs depend to a large extent upon anticipated 
 sales. The brochure discusses marketing in all its 
 various aspects. Selling is imperative to any busi- 
 ness, and for this reason it takes into consideration 
 the psychological aspect in order to know the atti- 
 tude required by business management. The three 
 essential functions of any management which are 
 basic for its business are: To finance, to produce, 
 and to sell. Only through sales can a business 
 progress; therefore, can a management ignore the 
 world around it and produce only for the pleasure 
 of it.

 Practically all fertilizers used in the United States 
 are prepared on a super-phosphate base. This ma- 
 terial is used alone in large tonnages and almost 
 invariably is the component present in large quanti- 
 ties in mixed fertilizer. Since the manufacture of su- 
 perphosphate consumes much sulphuric acid, the 
 making of this important fertilizer material is often 
 associated with the making of sulphuric acid. In 
 fact, economic considerations are making it neces- 
 sary that the large scale superphosphate maker be 
 also a sulphuric acid manufacturer. Successful 
 manufacture of either sulphuric acid or superphos- 
 phate is today necessarily a large-scale business. 
 The small manufacturer of these commondities 
 usually is at a great economic disadvantage. The 
 capital required for materials handling and skilled 
 supervision for both superintendence and general 
 management place disproportionately great bur- 
 dens on any plant of small output. This manual de- 
 scribes a plant which is of adequate size and also 
 capable of considerably increased output without 
 proportionate capital expenditures. The report was 
 prepared to answer overseas technical inquiries 
 on factory operation, management, and engineer- 
 ing. It includes brief information and cost estimates 
 on labor, machinery, equipment and supplies, as 
 well as information relative to engineering, training,

 The small steel rolling mill described in this bro- 
 chure is intended to manufacture hot rolled rein- 
 forcing bars and merchant shapes from billets or 
 ingots where the demand for such products exists 
 and where such a local operation would be practi- 
 cable. Either billets or ingots will be adaptable for 
 use as the raw material in this mill. However, for 
 the purpose of simplification, only billets are dis- 
 cussed. The report is one of a series of reports re- 
 sulting from overseas technical inquiries on factory 
 operation, management, and engineering. The

 The purpose of the report is to present basic infor- 
 mation for establishing a manufacturing plant in a 
 foreign country to produce approximately 4,000 
 brass lamps per month. Many types of brass lamps 
 are manufactured in the United States each year, 
 and each type is produced in a vast number of 
 sizes and designs. Thus labor and material costs 
 will vary according to the type, size, and design, in 
 addition to the quality of the lamp produced. Fur- 
 thermore, it has become a very prevalent practice 
 in the United States for brass lamp manufacturers 
 to buy the component parts of a lamp from other 
 companies, such as white metal casting compa- 
 nies, metal stamping, spinning, and electroplating 
 companies, and lamp shade manufacturers. This 
 results in the lamp manufacturer's activities being 
 confined to finishing and assembling, which is the 
 type of plant described in this report. Separate, 
 specialized operations such as this represent a 
 very economical method for producing brass 
 lamps. The report was prepared to answer over- 
 seas technical inquiries on factory operation, man- 
 agement, and engineering. It includes brief infor- 
 mation and cost estimates on labor, machinery, 
 equipment and supplies, as well as information rel-

 scientifically balanced diets is a widely recognized 
 necessity for obtaining best results in the raising of 
 animals and poultry. The diets vary with the type of 
 animal, its -<ge, and the purpose for raising it. In 
 addition, the knowledge gained through research 
 results in continuous changes in the recommend- 
 ed diets. Formulas for each of several applications 
 are included in the report. They are representative 
 of an infinite number of possible formulas for each 
 of the conditions. The food available in each local- 
 ity should be substituted in these formulas to keep 
 the cost at a minimum. This can be done while 
 maintaining quality. The tables of costs include a 
 blank column where the local costs of all the items 
 can be entered. The capacity of the plant is ap- 
 proximately 2 tons per hour, or 50 tons in 24 hours,

 The sugar plant described in the report is to manu- 
 facture raw sugar from sugar cane. Production of 
 cane varies with many conditions such as soil, 
 temperature, water, and climate; and yield 
 amounts to from 40 to 75 tons per acre. The plant 
 herein described requires an input of 600 tons of 
 cane per day for its economical operation and the 
 harvesting campaign usually lasts about five 
 months. It is therefore assumed that it will draw its 
 raw materials from an area about 2,000 acres 
 under cultivation.The output of this plant will 
 amount to approximately 60 tons of raw sugar per 
 day. Raw sugar is produced near the cane growing 
 areas by mills usually called 'centrals.' The raw 
 sugar from several centrals is then shipped, often 
 long distances and usually overseas, to great refin- 
 eries at the seaports of more densely populated 
 areas where the consumption is high. The report

 The small pharmaceutical glass plant described in 
 the report is intended to manufacture glass tubing, 
 ampoules and vials for antibiotics. Other pharma- 
 ceutical products such as syringes and glass for 
 laboratory uses can be produced in this plant. The 
 glass tubing ampoules and vials will be of neutral 
 glass. The ampoules and vials shall have a capac- 
 ity of from five to eight cubic centimeters. Other 
 sizes and other products may be produced in this 
 plant but for the purpose of the report only the 
 above products will be considered. The annual ca- 
 pacity of this plant is about seven tons of glass per 
 day which will produce ten million ampoules and 
 fifteen million vials per year having a capacity of 
 
 from five to eight cubic centimeters and provide 
 some additional tubing for other products. The 
 report was prepared to answer overseas technical 
 inquiries on factory operation, management, and 
 engineering. It includes brief information and cost 
 estimates on labor, machinery, equipment and 
 supplies, as well as information relative to engi- 
 neering, training, safety, markets, sales, financial

 The purpose of the report is to present basic infor- 
 mation for establishing a manufacturing plant in a 
 foreign country to produce aluminum kitchenware 
 from aluminum sheets. There are many kitchen 
 utensils which can be made from aluminum. These 
 include roasting pans, cake pans, muffin pans, bis- 
 cuit and cookie baking sheets, casseroles, can 
 openers, knives, forks, spoons, molds, juice ex- 
 tractors. The type particularly suitable for manufac- 
 ture from aluminum includes kettles, double boil- 
 ers, waterless cookers, and saucepans. A sauce- 
 pan has been taken as representative of this group 
 and the estimates in this report are based on the 
 manufacture of such a representative piece. The 
 report was prepared to answer overseas technical 
 inquiries on factory operation, management, and

 The volume is concerned with planning invest- 
 ments in a series of future manufacturing facilities. 
 Case studies are reported for four heavy process 
 industries in India: aluminum, caustic soda, 
 cement, and nitrogenous fertilizers. In these sec- 
 tors, there are significant economies-of-scale in 
 manufacturing, and there is a close interdepen- 
 dence between the size, location and time-phasing 
 of new capacity. Problems of investment planning 
 have both a theoretical and a practical side. They 
 are of common interest to managers, engineers, 
 operations researchers, and economists. In pre- 
 liminary presentations of this material, the author 
 has observed that the type of question raised de- 
 pends heavily upon the individual's professional 
 background. The manager or engineer is usually 
 concerned with the practical relevance, the real- 
 ism and the transferability of these studies; the op- 
 erations researcher tends to concentrate on the al- 
 gorithmic and the uncertainty aspects; and the 
 economist focuses upon the implications for devel- 
 opment planning.

 urban living. Among the highlights of the confer- 
 ence were: the urgency for a strong national hous- 
 ing policy; flexibility in standards and approaches, 
 especially with regard to rural vs. urban solutions; 
 first-priority consideration of user needs and incor- 
 poration of tenant ideas on the solution and man- 
 agement of their own housing requirement; strong 
 government interaction; and application of man- 
 agement techniques, including total life-cycle proj-

 The International Challenge of Drug Abuse is a 
 monograph based on papers presented at the 
 World Psychiatric Association 1977 meeting in 
 Honolulu. It focuses on the international problem 
 of drug abuse including: changing patterns of use 
 in key areas of the world; the biological basis of 
 drug dependence; such new advances in chemo- 
 therapy as LAAM and the narcotic antagonist, nal- 
 trexone; new advances in endorphin research; and 
 key therapeutic issues in developing countries. 
 The emphasis is on emerging patterns of drug use, 
 international aspects of research, and therapeutic 
 issues of particular interest worldwide.

 The corporation's primary aim is job creation which 
 occurs when products developed with state finan- 
 cial assistance subsequently are manufactured 
 and sold. The corporation provides companies 
 with risk capital for expenses associated with de- 
 veloping a new product, device, technique, or 
 process which can be exploited commercially. In 
 most situations, a private company incurs 40 per- 
 cent of development costs and the Product Devel- 
 opment Corporation supplies the remaining 60 per- 
 cent. State funds may be expended only for costs 
 associated with developing and exploiting specific 
 inventions and products, not for operating ex- 
 penses, basic research, equipment, land or build- 
 ings. Use of the corporation's funds in no way re- 
 places private financing since state aid is provided 
 only to companies which cannot reasonably obtain 
 financing from commercial sources. During the 
 corporation's three years of operation, approxi- 
 
 mately 1.3 million dollars has been invested in joint 
 ventures with 18 Connecticut companies. For 
 fiscal year 1979, royalties of 50 thousand dollars 
 are anticipated while in fiscal year 1980, royalties 
 are projected to increase severalfold. To date, only 
 three ventures have been written off as failures. A 
 product development corporation seems applica- 
 ble to many states and is a promising device for 
 stimulating economic activity and job creation.

 In the humid tropics it is possible to have a healthy 
 and abundant crop of non-leguminous plants only 
 with the application of Nitrogen (N) fertilizer to the 
 soil. Although all soil contains certain levels of or- 
 ganic N (amounts varying in different areas), more 
 may be necessary. This amount will depend on the 
 N level present, the soil's humidity, and the speed 
 of the absorption process. The principal source of 
 N fertilizer in Latin America, as in Africa, is derived 
 from ammonium sulfate, (NH4)2S04, although the 
 acid residue; the high cost of transportation in rela- 
 tion to the amount of N received; and the low con- 
 tent of N in the ammonium sulfate are definite de-

 terrents to using this source. Urea, CO (NH2)2, 
 having a much higher content of N, thereby being 
 more cost effective in relation to transportation, is 
 difficult to handle because of its hygroscopicity. 
 Urea is most effective when applied after planting. 
 Charts/tables showing N/soil experiments are in- 
 cluded along with an extensive bibliography.

 Changes in farm income associated with alterna- 
 tive restrictions on soil loss, fertilizer use, and the 
 land use mix are analyzed. A linear programming 
 model is used to estimate the effects of the restric- 
 tions, which were developed as indicators of envi- 
 ronmental quality. Effects of a partial flood control 
 program on farm income and the environmental 
 quality indicators are also examined. Under condi- 
 tions assumed in this analysis, restrictions on fertil- 
 izer use reduce net farm income more than con- 
 straints on either soil loss or the land use mix. Soil 
 loss constraints reduce net revenue and fertilizer 
 use while increasing the diversity of land use. Con- 
 straints on the land use mix reduce net revenue 
 and fertilizer use Flood retarding structures miti- 
 gate revenue losses only slightly and do not signifi- 
 
 cantly ci.^nge effects produced by environmental 
 constraints. Public policies requiring lower erosion 
 rates, reduced fertilizer use, or increased diversity 
 of land use could affect rural resources and food 
 and fiber production. Achieving any of those envi- 
 ronmental changes has accompanying trade-offs 
 in farm income.

 One of the more important new developments 
 which seem to hold promise for greater efficiency 
 in dairy farming is the herringbone milking system. 
 This system combines well with such modern im- 
 provements as loose housing of dairy cows, pipe- 
 line milking, and bulk handling of feed and milk. In 
 this report, new information on the herringbone 
 milking system has been brought together and 
 analyzed. The herringbone is compared with other 
 milking systems for different farm situations, and 
 its possible impact on dairy farming is considered. 
 The results should be of interest to dairy farmers 
 who are considering changes in their milking sys- 
 tems, particularly those who are thinking also of 
 expanding the size of their herds.

APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACTS 
 
 The definition of a 'Small Farmer' in this report is 
 grouped as the rural disadvantaged with little or no 
 access to political power, institutional services, full 
 employment, educational opportunities, societal 
 bae, and amenities available to some other seg- 
 ments of the non-farm population. This workshop 
 was devoted to working sessions in developing 
 outreach strategies for the small farmer. Develop- 
 ment schemes and case studies were presented 
 and discussed by each of the participants but no 
 consensus unanimity in program approach was 
 reached.

 The purpose of the project was to convene a work- 
 shop of people interested in appropriate technol- 
 ogy to examine and document locally-focused 
 issues in this field, and to contribute recommenda- 
 tions for a research agenda and program guide- 
 lines which could be considered in planning a dis- 
 tinct research program in appropriate technology. 
 For the purposes of this report, appropriate tech- 
 nology is defined as a socio-technical process 
 which encompasses technology design, assess- 
 ment, and use. This process seeks to optimize so- 
 lutions, wherever possible, through reliance on 
 local problem-solving capabilities as well as sensi- 
 tivity to environmental and cultural impacts. Infor- 
 mation about the background and purposes of the 
 project, including the rationale for a research pro- 
 gram in appropriate technology, the research 
 agenda and program development guidelines is 
 presented. Background information about the 
 issues examined during the project including 
 copies of the project overview and overview of 
 workshop events is given. The document also con- 
 tains the 25 final papers written by workshop facili- 
 tators and participants, as well as other documen- 
 tation of the ideas and recommendations made by 
 those who attended the workshop. The agenda 
 recommends three main research modes; socio- 
 technical systems research, policy research, and 
 technology transfer research.

 A major impediment to the development and 
 growth of the less developed nations is the defi- 
 cient spatial organization of these nations, i.e., the 
 absence of hierarchical system of metropoli, cities, 
 towns, and smaller central places through which 
 growth and development impulses are transmitted. 
 The first part of this study discusses the theoretical 
 underpinnings of this notion, drawing together and 
 synthesizing elements of economic development 
 theory, central place theory, location theory, and 
 information theory into a model of the spatial diffu- 
 sion of economic growth. Next, implications are 
 drawn from the model concerning the deficiencies 
 of spatial organization of developing countries, and 
 several strategies aimed at correcting these defi- 
 ciencies are discussed. An overview of regional 
 development planning experiences in developed 
 and developing countries is then undertaken, and 
 several conclusions complete the study.

 The approximately 1.5 billion sheep and goats of 
 the world are a major resource for feeding and 
 clothing mankind. The current role of sheep and 
 goats in developing countries ranges from a very 
 minor level of production in some of the countries 
 in the wet tropics to being the principal source of 
 animal protein in certain North African and Middle 
 Eastern nations. The lack of understanding of the 
 roles of sheep and goats has generally resulted in 
 their being ignored as a part of the sustenance and 
 development cycle for small farmers and pastoral- 
 ists. It is hoped that this report will provide the 
 stimulus for attainment of the necessary under- 
 standing to determine the proper role for sheep 
 and goats in future agricultural development ef- 
 forts.

 The Pakistan National Scientific Documentation 
 Centre (PANSDOC), was established in 1957, with 
 technical assistance from Unesco, to provide sci- 
 entific workers and others with services such as 
 the procurement of documents, compilation of bib- 
 liographies and translations. In the late sixties, a 
 project was formulated to convert this group into a 
 fully-fledged Pakistan Scientific and Technological 
 Centre (PASTIC), and work on this expanded proj- 
 ect was started in 1974. The PASTIC project was 
 based on the concept of a centralized service, 
 which was consistent with what was then being at- 
 tempted by most developing nations. Pakistan or- 
 ganized a joint IDRC/UNDP Mission, consisting of 
 experts from Unesco, IDRC and UNIDO, to con- 
 duct a detailed study of the S&T information needs 
 in Pakistan and make recommendations on the 
 future structure and development of a national 
 S&T information network. A comprehensive report 
 was produced based on a detailed analysis of the 
 existing situation and anticipated future require- 
 ments. Since the contents of the report are rele- 
 vant not only to Pakistan but to other developing 
 countries faced with similar problems, it was decid- 
 ed to publish the mission report with IDRC assist- 
 ance, for wider circulation.

 Virgin Islands fishery development has centered 
 on technological introduction and resource diversi- 
 fication. This report provides a descriptive study on 
 the use of an easily constructed rough-water dory 
 and assessment of its performance in local waters. 
 This assessment took the form of simulated com- 
 mercial fishing and explored a variety of fishing 
 techniques to measure daily catch potential in 
 local waters. The basic boat design was suitable to 
 local rough water conditions but lacked sufficient 
 working deck space. Lengthening the boat to 20 
 feet increased operating expenses. Subsequent 
 shortening to 1 7 feet indicated that the most eco- 
 nomical size may lie between 17 and 18 feet, with 
 a 65-85 hp outboard motor. Gear loss and fuel 
 were the major expense items. Traps, line fishing, 
 gill nets, and bait nets produced more than 90% of 
 the total catch.

 Perch fingerling production was the subject of a 
 conference held at the University of Wisconsin on 
 December 1 2, 1 977. Because of their small market 
 size and limited growth potential, perch aquacul- 
 ture will be a fingerling-intensive proposition. 
 Larger numbers of fingerlings will be required to 
 produce a given weight of perch than for most 
 other species being cultured. For this reason, pur- 
 chased fingerlings become a major element in the 
 cost of producing a pound of perch. From an eco- 
 nomic standpoint, it is difficult to fit a five to 10 cent 
 fingerling into the cost of producing a fish that will 
 sell for 30 to 40 cents when grown out. The pur- 
 pose of this conference is to present what is con- 
 sidered the state of the art in perch fingerling pro- 
 duction to help reduce the cost of this element of 
 perch aquaculture.

 Estimates of energy use in the poultry and egg in- 
 dustry are discussed by commodity, type of fuel, 
 season, and function. In 1974, the 146.5 trillion 
 Btu's used in poultry production and marketing 
 cost producers almost $550 million. Although the 
 
 efficiency of energy use in this industry has in- 
 creased in the last decade, energy conservation 
 measures discussed in this report can yield further 
 substantial savings. Development and implemen- 
 tation of new technologies may reduce the use of 
 critical forms of energy in the future. This study is 
 intended to provide a basis for further energy re- 
 search in the poultry and egg industry and to serve 
 as a prototype for similar energy studies on other 
 agricultural industries.

 Although the potato has been commercially culti- 
 vated for centuries in Europe and North America, it 
 is evidently rather new to East Pakistan. One 
 report indicates that it was first produced around 
 1930. Since then, production has expanded sub- 
 stantially and potatoes are now easily the most im- 
 portant vegetable crop. Present production and 
 marketing methods will be discussed in the first 
 part of this report. One of the major production 
 problems faced in East Pakistan~and other tropi- 
 cal areas-is the difficulty of building up and main- 
 taining good stock. This is, in part, traceable to the 
 heavy year-round insect populations which spread 
 potato viruses. A special problem in East Pakistan 
 is related to topography: the country is almost en- 
 tirely a low-lying delta and there is essentially no 
 high land suitable for more conventional breeding 
 and multiplication programs. One answer is to 
 import new seed varieties each season. This proc- 
 ess, however, takes scarce foreign exchange. A 
 compromise method would be to import a limited 
 amount of seed, multiply it, and then store it for 
 distribution to farmers the following season. The 
 latter method has been proposed for East Pakistan 
 and is discussed in detail in the second portion of 
 this report.

 Extraction of leaf protein concentrate (Pro-Xan) 
 from alfalfa for use in various livestock feeds pro- 
 vides new investment opportunities under a wide 
 variety of conditions. This report evaluates four 
 systems for making this extraction and the effect 
 of four variables on the annual rate of return on 
 investment. The four systems differ in the method 
 of expressing juice from the fresh alfalfa and the 
 yield of Pro-Xan. The system in which the alfalfa is 
 ground prior to pressing, and which has a Pro-Xan 
 yield of 12 percent, had the highest rate of return 
 on investment. The four variables evaluated were 
 the method of utilizing the press cake remaining 
 after the Pro-Xan containing juice is expressed, the 
 method of disposition of alfalfa solubles remaining 
 after the Pro-Xan is recovered from the juice, the 
 length of operating season, and the size of the 
 processing plant. The most profitable method of 
 solubles disposition is dependent upon the feasi- 
 bility of disposing of them in a nearby irrigation 
 system, the price that can be obtained for them 
 when concentrated for use as a feed ingredient, 
 and the price of natural gas.

 The recycling of dried layer waste (DLW) as feed to 
 livestock and poultry is examined in considerable 
 detail, but less information is available on recycling 
 broiler waste. The cost of pollution abatement as- 
 sociated with alternative poultry-waste manage- 
 ment systems is also analyzed. The cost of pro- 
 ducing 1 ton of DLW is $25, $30, and $46 for flock 
 sizes of 80,000, 50,000 and 10,000 cage layers, 
 respectively. Using available drying systems, on 
 farm processing and feeding of DLW do not 
 appear to be economically feasible for the family- 
 size (1 0,000 layer) operation. However, processing 
 and feeding DLW may be feasible for the larger 
 operations. The highest net returns are attained by 
 the larger operations when DLW is fed at 1 2.5 per- 
 cent of the ration. Cost analyses of the alternative 
 methods of waste abatement show land disposal 
 and anaerobic lagoon treatment to be the least ex- 
 pensive. Mechanical drying, aerobic lagoon treat- 
 ment, oxidation ditch treatment, and combined an- 
 erobic-aerobic lagoon treatment fall within the in- 
 termediate cost range. Composting and inciner- 
 ation are the most expensive.

 The paper describes the development of a small 
 scale spinning unit in India. This development grew 
 out of attempts to improve the Khadi hand spinning 
 
 technology when it was realized that it was at an 
 economic standstill. A 432 spinning unit has been 
 developed which can produce 20s count yarn of a 
 quality acceptable to the cottage weavers, at a 
 competitive price. This unit has great potential for 
 further technical development to improve the qual- 
 ity and range of yarn that can be spun. The meas- 
 ures needed to carry this out are discussed at 
 length.

 Investigations have been carried out at NIFFT to 
 develop a self-hardening sand system using 
 sodium silicate binder and an inorganic fluoride 
 hardener. The results obtained indicate a distinct 
 possibility of using this process in preference to 
 other inorganic or organic no-bake processes. The 
 dimensional accuracy and casting finish obtained 
 on the castings with this process are easily compa- 
 rable to that obtained by other self hardening proc- 
 esses. The bench life, strength, and other sand 
 characteristics are quite favorable and the break- 
 down properties are much better than in case of 
 C02 process. The process is also more economi- 
 cal than other organic and inorganic no-bake or 
 self hardening processes, and can be quite suit- 
 able for the production of both moulds and cores 
 for ferrous and non-ferrous castings.

 This document covers a four-year research pro- 
 gram to develop low-cost roofing from indigenous 
 materials in three developing nations (Philippines, 
 Jamaica, and Ghana). In Phase I, resources were 
 surveyed, and collaborating individuals and organi- 
 zations defined. In Phase II, experimental roofing 
 composite materials systems were developed and 
 optimized. In Phase III, demonstrations of the roof- 
 ing manufacture were conducted and experimental 
 roofs installed. Four composite panel roofing ma- 
 terial systems were developed which use major 
 percentages of indigenous bagasse filler, and 
 minor mounds amounts of phenolic or other resin 
 binder. Three of the four processes use an inten- 
 sive (Banbury) mixer. All four have compression 
 molding as a final process step in panel fabrica- 
 tion. The products range in raw material cost from 
 6-14 cents per square foot of roofing panel, de- 
 pending on composition, resin content, etc. The 
 program was implemented in the three participat- 
 ing countries through advisory committees and 
 technical working groups. Local labor, materials, 
 and facilities were used to demonstrate manufac- 
 ture of roofing by one or more of the processes.

 The permanent migration of professionals to the 
 more developed from the less developed regions 
 of the world, in recent years referred to as the 
 'brain drain', is a problem of growing concern to all 
 countries. The report reviews the major findings of 
 selected studies undertaken during the last 
 decade on the brain drain in order to assist the 
 design of an action program. The report does not 
 attempt an analysis of the brain drain problem but 
 concentrates on one practical way of addressing it 
 through a program which facilitates the return of 
 expatriate professionals, residing in the United 
 States, for relatively short periods as volunteer 
 consultants to their countries of origin. The oper- 
 ational and financial implications of an expanding 
 action program have been presented with sugges- 
 tions for cost sharing.

 The report is based on the belief that by strength- 
 ening the role of education the school will be able 
 to function as a center of resources for the whole 
 community and it will aid the social and education- 
 al rehabilitation of neighborhoods. The objectives 
 in the project were to get the community to really 
 participate in the development of their town, make 
 their habitat less aggressive, and achieve a true 
 community relationship. Emphasized in the project 
 were the two technologies considered appropriate 
 for education: (1) open curriculum, and (2) the 
 audio-visual teaching project for educational com- 
 munication. An analysis of the experiences of the 
 project is included in the document.

 This paper summarizes a longer paper on irrigation 
 in Bangladesh. It suggests that the development of 
 irrigation is a precondition for a significant increase 
 in agricultural output and employment. With 
 scarcely any uncultivated land, higher food output 
 can only come through widespread irrigation, 
 which is applied to a mere 12% of cultivated land; 
 and a more intensive use of land is essential if un- 
 employment and under-employment in Bangla- 
 desh is not to further increase as one million addi- 
 tional workers each year look for jobs.

 Irrigation development is now receiving high prior-

 This paper describes what is being done to effect a 
 number of major institutional changes in canal-irri- 
 gated areas, such as realignment of property 
 boundaries, introduction of rotational irrigation, 
 and formation of water users' associations. The 
 paper argues that research on institutional aspects 
 of water distribution, of which there has so far been 
 remarkably little, is needed not only for under- 
 standing the distribution of income and power in 
 rural society, but also for the formation of policies 
 which might make that distribution less unequal.

 The report discusses the potential of technological 
 research and development for creating rural fu- 
 tures in third world countries, especially in South 
 Asia and Africa. Against the background of forces 
 which deepen and extend rural poverty, it suggests 
 that new technology can either impoverish or, 
 through imaginative R and D, may have a counter- 
 vailing effect on the forces which tend to impover- 
 ish. It reviews some current approaches and then 
 speculates on some gaps which they sometimes 
 leave; R and D on R and D itself; learning from and 
 working with rural people; environment-specificity; 
 a future-orientation. It outlines criteria and a 
 method of planning for identifying desirable new 
 technology and lists types of environment for 
 which the method might be useful.

 Three papers are included in this document and 
 constitute an attempt to define the position of food 
 and nutrition issues in the context of development 
 planning. They take as their starting point the prop- 
 osition that the primary objective of development 
 planning should be the reduction of deprivation. 
 The areas discussed in the documents are: (1) the 
 nature and range of the choices open to planners 
 confronting the problem of nutrition deprivation 
 and the kind of information needed for effective 
 decision making; (2) the role of the nutritionist in 
 relation to the planner and the politician; (3) the 
 organization of the planning process.

 A plan and organization for a new system of edu- 
 cation is proposed in this paper. It is an appropriate 
 technology for education because it emphasizes 
 acquiring skills and arts in the fields of village activ- 
 ities from the beginning. The purpose of this edu- 
 cation would be to make its recipient a useful 
 member of the community who should be able to 
 enrich the environment to which he belongs.

 which are discussed; that of the 'economic man' to 
 minimize cost, and the 'engineering man', which 
 leads toward a more sophisticated, automated 
 technology.

 with organizational focus; work on actual projects 
 as a part of training; continuing participation of top 
 management of organizations that are targeted; 
 support of selected national training teams by re- 
 gional centers of excellence; use of learning pack- 
 ages as a basis for training; a learning stance by 
 trainers; and adaptation of learning packages to 
 local needs and conditions.

 About 6:28 p.m., on July 13, 1976, Conrail com- 
 muter train No. 1994 collided with the rear of com- 
 muter train No. 1992 which was standing on the 
 main track in New Canaan, Connecticut. The first 
 car of No. 1 994 and several cars of No. 1 992 de- 
 railed. Two passengers were killed and 30 persons 
 were injured. The National Transportation Safety 
 Board determines that the probable cause of this 
 accident was the failure of the engineer of train No. 
 1 994 to perceive the train ahead and to apply the 
 brakes at the earliest possible time. Contributing to 
 the accident was the excessive speed of the train 
 as it passed the controlling signal at Cane and the 
 inadequacy of the signal system to convey to the 
 engineer the situation ahead and to insure compli- 
 ance with the indications of the signals. During the 
 investigation of this accident, the National Trans- 
 portation Safety Board issued two recommenda- 
 tions concerning the signal system to the Con- 
 necticut Department of Transportation and two 
 recommendations jointly to the Connecticut De- 
 partment of Transportation and the Metropolitan 
 Transportation Authority concerning the operation 
 of exit doors. A recommendation on eliminating 
 unsafe conditions in the cars' interiors was reiterat- 
 ed and a recommendation to the FRA to promul- 
 gate regulations on the operation and construction 
 of commuter cars was issued.

 The development of energy reducing systems for 
 crop production, and the appropriate tool technol- 
 ogy to complement them, requires an appreciation 
 for the range of crops being grown within each of 
 these zones; cultural practices most appropriate to 
 a sustained agriculture; water regime likely to be 
 available; and the methods of weed control which 
 might appropriately be applied. Illustrated and dis- 
 cussed in this report are the tools developed for 
 increased crop production in the humid-tropics. 
 They include: hand-held planters, propelled plant- 
 ers, a controlled droplet application agrochemical 
 applicator, a hand maize sheller, a stripper har- 
 vester for rice and similar cereal crops, strip tillage, 
 and mechanized cassava lifting. Tables are given 
 for comparison of methods and productivity.

 The report discusses the different aspects of the 
 drugs and pharmaceuticals industry with particular 
 reference to the drug needs in developing coun- 
 tries. There is no doubt that many developing 
 countries have a long way to go in cultivating so- 
 phisticated technology in this field. However, the 
 competence of various developing countries in 
 adopting the production in the field of drugs and 
 pharmaceuticals varies which is due not only to the 
 different stages of educational development in 
 general and of technological competence in partic- 
 ular, but also due to capital-intensive requirement 
 of these industries. All the developing countries 
 are in the process of reorganizing their health 
 needs and today even the more developed among 
 the developing countries are not prepared to pro- 
 vide medical needs to more than 20% of their pop- 
 ulation. It is fairly necessary that each of the devel- 
 oping countries defines its scope of production 
 and phases out the work to be undertaken in this 
 direction with ability to expand this for future devel- 
 opment.

 Rural youth work has been accepted as a way to 
 introduce new ideas into rural life and train leaders 
 and citizens for the future. Rural youth work is edu- 
 cational and aims at the total development of 
 young people to prepare them for their role as 
 useful citizens. A successful program is valuable to 
 the youth who participate, the families involved, 
 the community, and their country. Rural youth work 
 is an effective way to close the gap between what 
 is known about agriculture and home economics 
 and what is actually practiced. This handbook 
 shows how to establish, operate, and evaluate a 
 rural youth program. Projects and special activities 
 for youth groups are also discussed.

 In marshy land it is difficult to dig a well or sunken 
 draining trap of more than 40cm without the sur- 
 rounding area caving in, resulting in loss of much 
 cultivable land area. This system of construction is 
 applicable only where the water table is less than 8 
 meters, a large number of wells are needed, finan- 
 cial means are limited, unsupervised labor is avail- 
 able, and cement is available at a reasonable 
 price. Used properly it can greatly improve land 
 use in regions like partsj of the Sahel, where this 
 system was developed.

 The report identifies definitional, institutional, and 
 technical difficulties associated with developing 
 Transit Performance Measures (TPM's) for use in 
 evaluating public transit service. A survey is made 
 of contemporary evaluation processes and is eval- 
 uated in terms of their purpose. The procedures 
 used by the Division of Mass Transportation of the 
 California Department of Transportation in devel- 
 oping its list of TPM's is described, as well as sug- 
 gested methods for developing performance 
 standards. The necessity for linking TPM's to fund- 
 ing strategies is also discussed. The report recom- 
 mends that further refinement and verification of 
 the research methodology used in this research 
 project is needed. It is pointed out that if public 
 transit service evaluation can be developed effec- 
 tively, it will greatly enhance the efficiency and ef- 
 fectiveness of public transit service.

 Two methods for creating impervious membranes 
 in existing adobe walls were investigated. They 
 were the injection of chemical grouts and installa- 
 tion of a metallic membrane. Chemical grouting 
 was unsuccessful because of the low permeability 
 of the tested adobe materials. The metallic mem- 
 brane did prevent the migration of moisture in the 
 adobe underneath the membrane, weakening the 
 adobe. Further, soluble salts migrated to the sur- 
 face of the wet adobe. Alternative methods for pro- 
 tecting adobe structures from ground water and 
 runoff water are discussed, including the installa- 
 tion of effective drainage systems and upgrading 
 the foundations.

 Two anaerobic digesters have been treating cow 
 manure in Michigan and in Wisconsin for a few 
 years. Both of them employ plug-flow, contrasted 
 with stirred-pot, management of the manure and 
 operate at mesophilic temperatures. They exhibit 
 very high stability and good methane yield at feed- 
 ing rates in excess of 10 Kg of volatile solids per 
 day per cubic meter of digester volume (0.8 Ib/cu 
 ft/day). Dispersion occurs in the velocity of the ma- 
 terial passing through the digester so that large 
 pieces pass much more slowly than the hydraulic 
 velocity. Odors in the effluent disappear when hy- 
 draulic detention times are as long as 4 days. From 
 measurements of energy content, the biogas is 
 about 60 percent methane. The pH of the digester 
 is between 7.0 and 7.2 under most steady feeding 
 conditions. Under transient feeding conditions it 
 may range from 6.8 to 7.8.

 This report provides guidance in the design and 
 cost analysis of solar heating systems for buildings 
 and domestic hot water (DHW). The nature of solar 
 radiation, several types of solar systems, storage 
 devices, and architectural considerations are 
 among topics included. Calculation methods are 
 included for determining collector size, storage 
 size, simplified building and DHW loads, value of 
 fuel saved, and saving-investment ratios. Eleven 
 worksheets are used to enable the engineer with 
 no prior experience with solar systems to accom- 
 plish a complete design and cost analysis. With 
 this information he can prepare bidding and speci- 
 fication documents for the job. Tables of solar in- 
 solation at various Navy stations, typical building 
 heat loads, collector prices by type, and storage 
 tank prices are included. Two example problems 
 are worked for tube-in-sheet collectors: one for 
 space and DHW heating for a single dwelling; the 
 other DHW supply for a dispensary.

 Catfish farming is using water areas to produce 
 crops of catfish by intensive management. This 
 kind of farming requires constructing facilities; con- 
 trolling water quality; spawning, hatching, and 
 feeding fish; and harvesting and marketing the fish 
 crop. A fish farmer can grow catfish in ponds, 
 raceways, or cages. This bulletin discusses the 
 production of channel catfish, blue catfish and 
 white catfish. They are suited to warm-water cul- 
 ture where water temperatures are above 70 de- 
 grees F for at least 4 months each year. All are 
 native to America and have a good conversion 
 ratio of feed to meat.

 Two different groups of juvenile S. guttatus fed en- 
 tirely with benthic algae were reared in two differ- 
 ent culture structures. After 24 weeks of rearing, 
 one group with a mean standard length of 7.89 cm 
 and average weight of 15.49 g, upon being 
 stocked in a sea-cage, increased in length to 1 0.31 
 cm and 33.56 g in weight. The other group, reared 
 in a fishpen for the same number of weeks, in- 
 creased in length from a mean of 7.88 to 10.42 cm 
 and in weight from 1 5.47 to 34.47 g. There was no 
 significant difference in growth. Mortalities of 1 5.8 
 percent and 13 percent were obtained in the cage 
 and fishpen, respectively. Growth comparison 
 showed that S. guttatus is slower in growing than 
 the other species of siganids. Some advantages of 
 rearing signnids in the fishpen are described and 
 further improvements are discussed.

 A cookbook was created as a result of a study on 
 Hawaiian seaweed, or limu. The Limu Eater intro- 
 duces a food that is unfamiliar to most and identi- 
 fies where it grows, what it looks like, how it is 
 used, and where it can be found. In addition, it de- 
 scribes some of the ethnobotanical uses of local 
 seaweed such as for medicine or in ceremony. 
 Thus, what started out to be just a collection of 
 recipes has become an introduction to the art and 
 craftmanship of limu eating. The recipes are from 
 several sources. About a third of the 86 presented 
 have already been published either locally or na- 
 tionally.

 industry. The paper is divided into three chapters: 
 The first chapter describes the main features of 
 the construction and the building materials industry 
 and summarizes the important role played by this 
 sector in the national economy. The second chap- 
 ter deals with the trends of economic and technical 
 development in the construction and building ma- 
 terials industry and discusses the appropriate 
 technologies for different processes. The third 
 chapter is devoted to government policy and inter- 
 national actions promoting the use of appropriate 
 technologies in the construction and building ma- 
 terials industry and the industrialization of con- 
 struction.

 This paper sets forth the major policy implications 
 and issues for A. I. D. of a broadly participatory, em- 
 ployment-oriented agricultural production strategy 
 for developing countries. The 'broadly participa- 
 tory' strategy reflects the major U.S. development 
 assistance objectives of helping developing coun- 
 tries: (1) Increase their capacity to expand and dis- 
 tribute food supplies to alleviate hunger and mal- 
 nutrition, and (2) increase participation of poor 
 people in the process and benefits of develop- 
 ment. The strategy outlined in this paper suggests 
 that improved diets in developing countries will in 
 large measure depend on increasing food supplies 
 mainly through accelerating agricultural production 
 and improving food distribution, and expanding 
 employment and income of low income families, 
 thereby enabling them to purchase the food they 
 need. It reviews the evolution of A.I.D. agriculture 
 policy and stress the need for a restatement of 
 policy based on a broadly participatory production 
 strategy. It summarized the implications of the 
 strategy and raises key issues in terms of five func- 
 tion priorities for assistance to agriculture.

 This communication describes how ethanol, other 
 liquid fuels, and organic chemicals can be pro- 
 duced from cellulosic biomass at prices that can 
 compete with those of petroleum derived materials 
 by employing presently available or soon to be de- 
 veloped membrane technologies. Contemporary 
 membrance technologies can already effect major 
 savings in process costs for the conventional fer- 
 mentation of grains or molasses to produce eth- 
 anol; developing membrance technologies could 
 employ cheap cellulosic substrates for ethanol 
 production.

 neers. The system is applicable to sophisticated 
 high-rise building and low-cost, low-rise buildings 
 alike. Two 12 story apartment buildings of 116 
 units each were recently erected at the rate of two 
 floors per week using only one six-man crew. U- 
 Forms can be fabricated and erected with basically

 Developing countries have frequently expressed 
 the need for information on technologies evolved 
 or adapted by other developing countries. Such in- 
 formation will be of benefit to them in the appropri- 
 ate choice of technologies by providing alterna- 
 tives and also a basis for promoting the exchange 
 of information and sharing of experiences in this 
 field. As part of its information activities UNIDO 
 has been collecting information on technologies 
 from developing countries through contacts with 
 institutions related to research and development 
 
 and other sources of information in developing 
 countries as well as through journals, reports and 
 other publications dealing with such matters. This 
 volume brings together in one place information on 
 138 technologies from developing countries. Gen- 
 erally, under each heading a brief description of 
 the technology and its distinctive features are 
 given.

 Many conventional marketing and supply coopera- 
 tives have been formed by farmers in the past four 
 decades. Cooperatives' membership consisted 
 primarily of medium- and high-income farmers, al- 
 though many also had a number of low-income 
 farmers. Between 1957-75, 2,019 cooperatives 
 were formed. New cooperatives formed by com- 
 mercial farmers included sugar beet processing, 
 tobacco marketing, peanut storage, and feeder pig 
 marketing and farrowing. New cooperatives 
 formed by low-resource farmers included market- 
 ing of fruits and vegetables, feeder pigs, and fish. 
 In addition to providing historical and statistical 
 background, this publication also provides infor- 
 mation for organizing, financing, and managing 
 cooperatives.

 Secretary of State in late June 1977. The study fo- 
 cuses its inquiry on the following key questions: (1) 
 What are the central development problems facing 
 the poor countries, and what bearing do they have 
 on our interests. (2) What lessons from more than 
 two and a half decades of experience should be 
 incorporated into any future development assist- 
 ance strategy. (3) What should be the purposes 
 and content of any future U.S. development assist- 
 ance strategy. What are the implications of this 
 strategy for the size and organization of U.S. bi- 
 lateral and multilateral development assistance. 
 (4) How should that assistance relate to the other 
 U.S. economic programs that affect the progress 
 of the poor countries.

 evaluation of the potential markets for the prod- 
 ucts of bio-conversion. The results of this study 
 point favorably toward large-scale bio-conversion 
 plants and to potential applications of bio-conver- 
 sion on a small scale for dairies and feedlots. The 
 study's economic analysis concludes that the 
 methane produced from such a bio-conversion fa- 
 cility would be cheaper than all other domestic 
 synthetic natural-gas sources. The residue pro- 
 duced from this process could be marketed as fer- 
 tilizer, and the algae produced has potential use as

 This report is a discussion of small anaerobic di- 
 gestion units, stimulated by experiments operated 
 by Bio-Gas of Colorado. A grant from the Four 
 Corners Regional Commission to the Colorado 
 Energy Research Institute enabled Bio-Gas to 
 build a 12 to 50 cow digestion unit on a trailer 
 which could be pulled by a tractor to 19 different 
 demonstration sites in Colorado, New Mexico, Ari- 
 zona, Utah and Nevada. During this same period, 
 Bio-Gas conducted laboratory experiments to de- 
 termine yield coefficients of different manures and 
 defined parameters to evaluate the economic 
 feasibility of building digesters on a small or self- 
 sufficiency scale. First the report describes the 
 mobile digestion unit of 6,000 gallons with its start- 
 up phases, operation, production and problems. 
 Secondly, a discussion of the tour and a summary 
 of the Journal in the Appendix tell how the digester 
 performed and how it was received among the 
 people who came to see the demonstration. Final- 
 ly, the report includes designs for four different 
 sizes of digesters based on data collected from the 
 mobile unit, the tour and the laboratory, along with 
 an order blank for shop drawings. A series of

 This introductory report describes three different 
 types of erosion, their causes, and methods used 
 to control erosion and preventative treatments of 
 the soil. These are described step by step, and ap- 
 plicable diagrams are included, e.g. the construc- 
 tion of drainage channels and ditches, depending 
 on the type and steepness of the soil; different ter- 
 racing methods; types of vegetation beneficial to 
 the prevention of erosion, especially for the pre- 
 vention of slides and the building of retaining walls. 
 The report is suited to the available resources in 
 underdeveloped countries, and is primarily for use 
 by farmers and small communities interested in im- 
 proving the condition of the land. It is by no means 
 a technical treatise.

 Some of the means by which Mexican tuna coo-

 physical and social conditions are identified. The 
 difference between the successful adaptation of 
 the Mexican cooperatives and the less than suc- 
 cessful adaptation of many U.S. fishing coopera- 
 tives has been a product of the complex interac- 
 tion of numerous historical and cultural variables. 
 Although conditions in Mexico and the United 
 States are not directly parallel, some of the mecha- 
 nisms employed by the Mexican fisherman in 
 adapting to changing conditions could prove useful 
 to U.S. fishermen in solving their own problems.

 The Mochudi Farmers Brigade is a project of the 
 Kgatleng Development Board which is a non-gov- 
 ernmental development agency, dedicated to the 
 
 development of Botswana and its peoples, particu- 
 larly the rural sector. For a number of years it has 
 been working to develop and perfect a multi-pur- 
 pose farming implement suited to local conditions. 
 In building simple tools for draught animals the 
 wheels on which the implement is supported repre- 
 sent the single largest investment in materials, 
 therefore, if the same set of wheels can be used 
 for many functions it should be possible to limit the 
 cost of necessary tools by making one set of 
 wheels carry out many operations. After several 
 years of testing, the Mochudi Toolbar has been 
 perfected so that it is possible to perform all the 
 necessary operations of conventional tillage sys- 
 tems as well as many unconventional operations. 
 This booklet contains a complete set of scale 
 drawings for the Toolbar and its various compo- 
 nents.

 In recent years the construction and building mate- 
 rials industry in less developed countries has 
 become more and more important. Hence it should 
 be awarded second priority after the food and agro 
 industries. In construction there are several sub- 
 sectors: international modern, domestic modern 
 and traditional and small scale. Appropriate tech- 
 nologies are different for these subsectors. For the 
 modern subsector technologies used in developed 
 countries can be appropriate, however, in many 
 cases production on a smaller scale and a lower 
 degree of mechanization is justified. In the building 
 materials industry too production often is to be or- 
 ganized on a smaller scale (cement, lime, gypsum, 
 etc.). It is important to develop the manufacture 
 and use of local materials (stone etc.) and of indus- 
 trial and agricultural wastes. Industrialization on 
 various levels leads to an increased effectiveness 
 of the construction and building materials industry, 
 this being a prerequisite to increased outputs in 
 new housing, new industrial complexes and the 
 construction of better national and urban infra- 
 structures (transport systems, etc.). Governments 
 should devote particular attention to the develop- 
 ment of the construction and building materials in- 
 dustry, including the choice of appropriate technol- 
 
 ogy, in order to promote economic development 
 and the welfare of the population.

 An attempt has been made to present the status of 
 construction industry in Iran. Statistics are given 
 reflecting urban housing types, numbers existing 
 and planned, the status of building materials and 
 the extent of industrialization of building industry is 
 presented. Comparisons have been made be- 
 tween the two categories of indigenous and im- 
 ported Western technologies. Factors most impor- 
 tant in evaluating alternative construction tech- 
 niques are discussed. It is shown that the choice of 
 appropriate technology whether indigenous or im- 
 ported depends on the specifics of the project and 
 its suitability to local conditions. The economical, 
 labor, technical, and managerial factors, as well as 
 the adaptability of the region to new technology is 
 stressed. The appropriateness of indigenous tech- 
 nology to rural housing, and the applicability to 
 specific project of total, partial or on-site prefabri- 
 cation is described. Finally, the establishment of 
 component industries as a foundation for a stable, 
 equilibrium condition in building industry is empha- 
 sized.

 The paper considers important aspects of the eco- 
 nomics and technology of the construction sector 
 in less developed countries especially in Africa. It 
 then applies the lessons drawn from the analysis 
 to suggest future policies. The design and erection 
 of buildings to fit their purpose and the industrial 
 manufacture of building materials are different 
 types of activity but strongly influence each other. 
 The earlier parts of the discussion concentrate on 
 aspects of design from which stem particular re- 
 quirements for building materials and components. 
 Some traditional low cost ways of extending the 
 life expectancy of normally non durable structures 
 are briefly reviewed in the context of an examina- 
 tion of the normal agents of decay in buildings. In- 
 formation is provided of one new manufacturing 
 system, a technique for making low cost fibre rein- 
 forced cement roof sheets by hand which is suit- 
 able for village-scale industries. A fairly detailed 
 examination is made of the one building product 
 which is manufactured extensively in small scale 
 plants-burnt clay bricks. Aspects of the brickmak- 
 
 ing technologies and operating set-ups are exam- 
 ined to try to determine what features have made 
 them so resilient. Discussion of rural brickmaking 
 is concluded in an assessment on how it could be 
 improved technically so as to serve its market with 
 better quality products in manufacturing plants 
 which use resources more efficiently, are less vul- 
 nerable to seasonal changes and provide a better 
 operating environment for the workforce. The ar- 
 gument is then broadened using information on the 
 strengths and weaknesses of the rural brick and 
 tile industries to give guidance on how other forms 
 of building material manufacture could be encour- 
 aged. Finally the question is explored of how rural 
 employment and prosperity through expanded 
 building materials manufacture, could be aided by 
 institutional assistance through public sources. 
 The paper concludes with a description of actions 
 and programs which in the light of the technical 
 and commercial findings, might be considered for 
 implementation on an international scale.

 The United Republic of Cameroon is located be- 
 tween West and Central Africa. The country enjoys 
 a tropical to subtropical climate. The country has 
 four major regions distinguished on basis of cli- 
 mate and geology....factors that influence the type 
 and distribution of building materials. The main 
 local building materials are: cement, sand, gravel, 
 stone, cement blocks, clay blocks, burnt bricks, 
 hardwood, raffia bamboo, palm leaves, grass, cor- 
 rugated aluminum sheets and iron rods. The main 
 building types are constructed by a combination of 
 these materials. Local building types are construct- 
 ed by a combination of these materials. Local 
 building materials is at a nascent stage as for ex- 
 ample: research on concrete with palm nut shells 
 as aggregate and research on lateritic concrete. 
 Both research results are summarized in the 
 paper. In view of the potential and low cost of local 
 building materials serious research is called for at 
 a national and regional level with an aim of under- 
 standing these materials and developing norms for

 The purpose of this handbook is to provide infor- 
 mation which must be considered when investigat- 
 ing the development of a water supply and sewage 
 disposal system for a small community which is sit- 
 uated too far from a piped system of water supply. 
 Many of the methods of water and sewage treat- 
 ment described in this handbook are based on the 
 standard practices used in developing countries 
 but which can be adapted. Chapters 1 -6 describe 
 methods which may be applied in sequence, from 
 the selection of a water source, the transport of 
 water, the treatment of water, the disposal of 
 wastes, sewage treatment and the final disposal of 
 treated wastes, and the by-products of treatment 
 processes. In each chapter, a number of alterna- 
 tives is described, some suitable for self-help situ- 
 ations and others which may be more suitable for 
 
 larger communities. A glossary is included to ex- 
 plain technical terms used in the text.

 numbers of low-income rural people with the limit- 
 ed financial resources, and in particular, the scarce 
 trained manpower available for rural development 
 in Africa. The study involved two components. The 
 first consisted of a review of past projects in sub- 
 Saharan Africa. The second involved rural sector 
 surveys in Kenya and Tanzania. The major findings 
 are based on thirteen sets of rural development 
 projects and programs selected from various parts 
 of sub-Saharan Africa to represent diversity in 
 design and implementation as well as in the envi- 
 ronment in which they are situated.

 parties design and operate small biogas plants. It 
 is written in relatively simple language, understan- 
 dable to people with limited scientific and technical 
 training and it gives the practical approach. Be- 
 cause of the pressing demand for food, more fertil- 
 izer is needed to raise more crops, but supply is 
 getting less. With a biogas plant, a one-hectar farm 
 with one work carabao and a two-sow units or 
 three-porker units can produce enough fuel to 
 cook the meals of a family of seven, light his home, 
 iron his clothes, and produce enough fertilizer to 
 continuously crop the farm all year round. The 
 biogas plant is the most practical and least expen- 
 sive solution to the problem relating to pollution 
 and lack of fuel and food, particularly for rural 
 areas. For the farmer it will be a key towards self- 
 reliance and self-sufficiency.

 The emphasis in this study is to define the poor in 
 operational terms and to construct quality of life 
 indicators which can be used to match the direc- 
 tion and extent of change brought about by any 
 programs especially oriented to greater equity for 
 the rural poor. The study is divided into three areas 
 of discussion: AID policies and procedures; meth- 
 ods of research; and subjects of research.

 A survey identified weeding as a labor bottleneck 
 limiting crop production on farms employing animal 
 drought for land preparation. Improvement in the 
 methods of weed control was made the primary 
 objective of the project. The ox-drawn EMCOT 
 ridger plough had been in use for some time in the 
 area, and the report covers the design, develop- 
 ment, production and use of several other ma- 
 chines and of attachments for the EMCOT. All 
 items were designed for local construction from 
 easily available materials, using simple equipment. 
 Manufacturing instructions are included for inter- 
 pretation by the non-engineer. The report is ac- 
 companied by a chart summarizing the rainfall, 
 cropping calendar and labor inputs throughout the 
 growing season, and information on land use, ten- 
 ture, labor, capital and income of a typical tradition- 
 al family.

 text of community development. The basic prem- 
 ise of the book is that industrialization of the rural 
 areas in developing countries must play a vital role 
 and that the mechanization of agricultural methods 
 and production will have to develop in conjunction 
 with this. Illustrations are included. Chapter topics 
 include: rural industries; pre-capitalist industry in 
 East Africa; petty production; the contemporary sit- 
 uation; village work shop design; and strategy to- 
 wards village workshops.

 Fundamental principles for the production of high- 
 quality, hygienic cheeses are presented. Different 
 physical-chemical tests for both the milk to be 
 used and the ferment to be added are described 
 (e.g.: acidity of the milk, density, fat determination, 
 etc.). The principles of pasteurization and produc- 
 tion of cheese using bacterial and enzymatic proc- 
 esses are explained. A detailed chart of the differ- 
 ent ferments and their characteristics is included, 
 as well as methods to produce yogurt, butter, and 
 melted cheese. Diagrams for the installation of a 
 dairy and equipment needed for a basic dairy ca- 
 pable of processing 400 liters of milk per day are

 The method of production of fresh white cheese 
 and ripened cheese in the Peruvian Jungle are pre- 
 sented. The prime material and equipment needed 
 for each kind of cheese are described. The details 
 and production costs are analyzed. Only milk of 
 three percent fact has been used. Temperature 
 conditions for the preparation of the fresh white 
 cheese (Ucayalino), as well as methods for precipi- 
 tating the protein of the milk are given. The milk 
 used has to be preserved with hydrogen peroxide. 
 Under tropical conditions, this cheese can be pre- 
 served for four to five days, although the preserva- 
 tion period can be prolonged to up to fifteen to 
 twenty days if refrigeration is available. The rip- 
 ened cheese or Provolone Amazonico has differ- 
 ent processing conditions. Acidified milk can be 
 used and hydrogen peroxide preservation is not 
 needed. The preservation period for this cheese 
 under tropical conditions is up to two months. Sim- 
 pler equipment is required for this type of cheese 
 than for the fresh white cheese. No mold, cheese 
 cloth or presses are needed nor is it necessary to 
 wrap the cheese. An estimate of milk needed per

 A new method to accelerate the drying of purple 
 and yellow grapes using a short preliminary chemi- 
 cal treatment is described. By breaking up the skin 
 through a very short immersion in alkaline solution, 
 the evaporation of water is speeded up and the 
 drying time is cut from 90 days to 20 days. To pre- 
 serve the light color in yellow grapes, an additional 
 sulfur treatment is needed to inhibit enzymatic re- 
 actions in the grape skin responsible for the dark 
 pigmentation. A diagram describing the construc- 
 tion of an appropriate structure for the drying proc- 
 ess is given. Information on the international 
 market for the raisins and prices per ton paid 
 during the years 1971-1976 are provided. A simpli- 
 fied step by step diagram of the whole process,

 A feasibility report for fish culture in Lake llopango 
 and the Olomega Lagoon was undertaken from 
 May 24 to July 23, 1977. In Lake llopango, fishing 
 was performed in the miry (muddy) soil area and in 
 the organic matter area as well as in the sandy soil 
 and rocky area. In the Olomega Lagoon, fishing 
 took place in the miry soil and organic matter (dead 
 plants, etc.) area. The fish caught were measured, 
 weighed, and counted. Fish obtained from the Olo- 
 mega Lagoon were dissected to determine their 
 egg content and choose the best size fish to be 
 kept. Nets with different mesh values were used 
 and evaluated for their efficiency. Different species 
 existing in each lake are listed. The authors list 
 several problems encountered in the Olomega 
 Lagoon. Problems in marketing due to commercial 
 monopoly of fish caught and of fishing equipment 
 are cited, as well as high insecticide level in the 
 waters, low water level in the lagoon area, large

 The chemical, physical, and biological studies of 
 Lake Aramuaca were carried out in September 
 1974 (rainy season). It was observed that the lake 
 of volcanic origin, has a reduced production of 
 plankton and a chemical and thermal stratification 
 occuring mainly at the lake's surface. It was con- 
 cluded that the existing chemical and physical pa- 
 rameters encountered during the rainy season are 
 unfavorable for the use of this lake as a fishing 
 ground. High turbidity of the water, high alkalinity, 
 and water hardness as well as unfavorable levels 
 of C02, H2S, 02, and S04(-) make this lake's 
 waters harmful to the organisms that could live 
 there.

 A limnologic study of the Guija Lake at the end of 
 the dry season (April 1 974) was undertaken. One 
 of the main objectives is to collect data to be com- 
 pared to earlier data. During the previous rainy 
 season (May-Sept 1973), physical, chemical, and 
 biological parameters were determined for this 
 lake in the dry season. Phytoplankton, zooplank- 
 ton, and benthos (organisms like mollusks, etc.) at 
 different depths were examined. The authors find 
 noteworthy differences in the dry vs. rainy season 
 parameters. During the dry months, partial stagna- 
 tion of the lake is noticeable. In the period from 
 November to February, the colder air and the wind 
 lead to a mixture of the top layer of the water, 
 which used to be warm, with the lower layer result- 
 ing in an inversion of water layers. This causes a 
 remarkable (50%) lowering of the planktonic popu- 
 lation due to a parallel lowering of available chemi- 
 cal nutrients. The authors recommend the rainy 
 season as the best for seeding of the Tilapia 
 Aurea. Graphs and tables comparing all of the 
 studied parameters are included.

 The report describes an evaluation of the available 
 biomass in Laguna Verde as well as physical 
 chemical characteristics of this lake and determi- 
 nation of its feasibility for exploitation for fishing 
 purposes were carried out in October 1 974. Physi- 
 cal parameters i.e. visibility, conductivity of the 
 water, turbidity, and temperature were studied. 
 Chemical parameters i.e. H2S, C02, and 02 con- 
 centration, pH, alkalinity, and water hardness were 
 measured at three different stations in Laguna 
 Verde. Biological studies of the zooplankton and 
 phytoplankton encountered were carried out. Soil 
 samples were also analyzed. An error analysis is 
 included. Tables containing all experimental re- 
 sults and a comparison with measurements of pre- 
 vious years are given. The authors concluded that 
 at the time of the study (dry season) the lake was 
 in it's homothermal phase. A high plankton con- 
 centration and a scarce ichthyological population 
 were observed. It is also concluded that under the 
 observed conditions, this lake is not really suited 
 as a fishing ground during that season.

 The engineering of wind energy systems is ana- 
 lyzed from the point of view of component selec- 
 tion and performance assessment. Combinations 
 of two load types (variable and constant speed) 
 and three turbine types connected by a fixed-gear- 
 ratio transmission constitute the various systems 
 investigated. The three turbine types result from in- 
 troducing the notions of nested, unnested, and 
 hybrid power coefficients suggested by current 
 performance characteristics of American Multib- 
 lade, Darrieus, and Darrieus/Savonius turbines. 
 The engineering problems associated with these 
 systems are discussed qualitatively, emphasizing 
 the nature, magnitude, and variability of the prob- 
 lems. 1 1 references.

 The results of field evaluations of 1 1 rural human 
 services projects are reported, barriers to the de- 
 livery and receipt of services in rural areas are 
 identified, and implications for action by DHEW are 
 discussed. The projects visited, nine of which re- 
 ceived DHEW funds, operated within generally 
 similar contexts: rural agricultural communities 
 with dispersed populations and high levels of pov- 
 erty. However, the projects varied considerably in 
 the number and type of services provided and in 
 the primary target groups served. A strongly con- 
 stituted board of directors was found to be one 
 good indicator of a strong project. Projects with 
 broadly defined target groups and diverse goals 
 appeared weaker than those with narrower target 
 groups and well defined, integrated goals and ob- 
 jectives. All projects expended high levels of effort 
 on obtaining funding. Recognition of the need for 
 interagency cooperation was widespread. Plan- 
 ning and evaluation components were generally 
 weak. Barriers to effective delivery of DHEW serv- 
 ices in rural areas include transportation problems, 
 lack of information about rural projects, limited 
 flexible funding and staff capacity at the local area, 
 and attitudinal problems, as exemplified in the 
 common belief that DHEW's involvement in rural 
 affairs is inappropriate. It is recommended that a 
 long-range national strategy for rural development 
 be established and that a commitment be made to 
 providing dollar and manpower resources for over- 
 coming imbalances between rural and urban 
 America. Case studies are presented for 8 of the 
 1 1 projects visited.

 series of approaches in gathering and handling 
 data, beginning with the simplest and ending with 
 the most complex. The initial chapter covers use of 
 objective measures which already exist (census 
 data) or which can be compiled (record search ma- 
 terial). Discussion then proceeds to methods of 
 obtaining expert opinion from community leaders. 
 Several methods of conducting a 'felt need survey' 
 to collect data are described. Alternative ways of

 Needs assessment remains the most fundamental 
 aspect of any human services program. Poor eval- 
 uations of many programs result from errors made 
 during the needs assessment phase of the pro- 
 gram planning process. Needs assessment is the 
 process of identifying and describing individual, 
 family, or community conditions that may be ame- 
 nable to total or partial amelioration through a 
 human services program. Information gathered in 
 needs assessment studies is used to set goals, 
 program objectives, and priorities, and thus, influ- 
 ences the effectiveness of service delivery. By 
 documenting problems, it justifies the develop- 
 ment and implementation of a specific program. In 
 the same vein, it determines the continuing validity 
 of the goals, objectives, and services of an existing 
 program. This pamphlet, distributed by the Health 
 and Welfare Council, attempts to give a general in- 
 troduction to needs assessment through a prag- 
 matic examination of ten methods commonly used 
 by planners and program developers. The tech- 
 niques examined include: (1) the community 
 survey; (2) the experience survey; (3) the available 
 data approach; (4) the resource inventory; (5) the 
 consumer demand approach; (6) the outreach ap- 
 proach; (7) public hearings and forums; (8) demon- 
 stration projects; (9) social indicators; and (10) 
 beneficiary analysis. Exploration of the concept of 
 needs shows that community service needs can 
 be viewed as either manifest (clearly evident) or 
 latent (felt to be present). The former is broken 
 down into expressed and felt needs, while the 
 latter is divided into inferred, ascribed, and com- 
 parative needs. Each technique is evaluated in 
 terms of its ability to assess each of these catego- 
 ries of community needs.

 An extensive analysis is made of the technical and 
 economic feasibility of producing fuels and chemi- 
 cals from the sugar crops (sugar cane, sweet sor- 
 ghum, and sugar beets). It is concluded that eth- 
 anol and ammonia are the most promising prod- 
 ucts. Ethanol produced by fermentai on on juice or 
 molasses is close to economic competitiveness. 
 The ammonia cost is not yet compe. iive but could 
 be competitive with coal-produced ammonia. 
 Sugar cane appears to be the most promising crop 
 in the short and intermediate term; sweet sorghum 
 has the greatest long-range appea; The develop- 
 ment of processes to manufacture ammonia, 
 methanol, acetic acid, and thermochemical substi- 
 tute natural gas (SNG) from sugar crop residues 
 depends on technology to generate synthesis gas. 
 Anaerobic digestion of sugar cane or juices to 
 SNG is not attractive on economic grounds. The 
 agricultural aspects of sugar crops research are 
 summarized. Energy balances of input/output are 
 derived for sugar cane and sugar beets. Recom- 
 mendations are made for USDOE actions and 
 policy decisions. (ERA citation 04:002696)

 Since control of the aquatic snails which transmit 
 schistosomes can be very expensive in large hy- 
 droelectric and irrigation reservoirs, it is important 
 to understand precisely the dynamics of these 
 snail populations in order to plan efficient pro- 
 grams for their control. Thus sampling methods 
 are needed to measure the numbers of snails in 
 the reservoirs and this report concerns the use and 
 evaluation of the Emery dredge in nine reservoirs 
 in Puerto Rico. The results showed that the Emery 
 dredge could be utilized under certain conditions 
 to accurately estimate numbers of snails in these 
 reservoirs. In addition field results showed that 
 Biomphalaria glabrata could be stranded by water 
 receding very slowly and that they were highly re- 
 sistant to desiccation. These results are important 
 for planning snail control through periodic fluctu- 
 ation of the water level.

 The primary objective of this study is to suggest 
 methods to derive fuels economically from sugar 
 cane, sugar beets, and sweet sorghum, evaluate 
 the potential feasibility of the various suggestions, 
 and to suggest means to convert the potential 
 feasibility into practical feasibility. The sugar cane 
 and sugar beet productivity per acre and the pro- 
 duction costs are estimated. Sugar cane is suitable 
 for tropical and subtropical climates, whereas the 
 sugar beet can be grown in temperate climates. 
 The two most promising methods for the thermo- 
 chemical conversion of the plants into synthesis 
 gas are the Bailie and the Purox process. Anaero- 
 bic conversion of sugar crop fiber into SNG has not 
 yet been subjected to extensive laboratory investi- 
 gation, but it is expected that pretreatment would 
 probably be needed to improve the rate of diges- 
 tion of the lignocellulosic fiber. (ERA citation

 Highlights are given of Federal and State presen- 
 tations at a conference on research priorities for 
 energy conservation in buildings and agriculture 
 held in Chicago on Oct. 20, 1975. The conference 
 was sponsored jointly by US ERDA and the Na- 
 tional Governor's Conference. The five top priority 
 categories recommended by the States for Feder- 
 al R and D related to energy conservation in build- 
 ings were: insulation materials; technology trans- 
 fer; economic factors; solar heating and cooling; 
 and construction techniques. The top priority items 
 recommended for research on energy conserva- 
 tion in agriculture were: development of substitute 
 fuels for natural gas; improved fertilizer production 
 processes; energy production from wastes; more 
 efficient crop-drying techniques; and more efficient 
 food- and fiber-processing methods. (ERA citation

 The combination of concerns for energy shortages 
 and pollution control has renewed interest in the 
 possibility of generating energy from organic 
 wastes. This report is a comprehensive study of 
 the feasibility of generating a substitute natural gas

 lots (1000 head) using the anaerobic fermentation 
 process. The feasibility in technical, economic and 
 practical terms is estimated. Excluding energy use 
 in manufacture of equipment and farm chemicals, 
 the total energy use on 40 and 100 cow dairies, 
 and 1 000 head feedlots were estimated to be 1 64 
 x 10 exp 6 , 307 x 10 exp 6 , and 670 x 10 exp 6 
 kcal per year, respectively. The estimated maxi- 
 mum annual methane energy that could be gener- 
 ated on these operations was estimated as 216 x 
 10 exp 6 , 473 x 10 exp 6 , and 2280 x 10 exp 6 
 kcal, respectively. Thus, a dairy farm in northern 
 New York could produce more energy than it con- 
 sumes, and a feedlot could produce more than 3 
 times the quantity consumed. The estimated costs 
 of generating methane on 40 and 100 cow dairies 
 and on a 1000 head beef feedlot were $22.80, 
 $13.40, and $4.50 per 10 exp 6 kcal. Detailed anal- 
 yses of the three operations estimated that the 
 actual costs for utilization would increase to $80, 
 $39, and $1 1 per 10 exp 6 kcal for specific oper- 
 ations, respectively. Farms with more than 100 
 cows can begin to consider the technology as an 
 income producing operation. It is therefore con- 
 cluded that anaerobic fermentation of agricultural 
 wastes has significant potential and should receive 
 increased attention. (ERA citation 02:021 947)

 Fungi play an important part in leaf litter decompo- 
 sition in terrestrial ecosystems in both temperate 
 and tropical regions. There are few published re- 
 ports dealing with decomposition in running 
 waters, and no work has been done in tropical 
 streams. Results are reported from a study under- 
 taken to determine the nature and time course of 
 disappearance of submerged leaf litter in a small

 This guide was compiled by the Energy Extension 
 Service (EES) for use by State EES planners. It is 
 intended to facilitate viewing of solar, conserva- 
 tion, and other energy technologies at work. The 
 demonstrations listed in this Guide have generally 
 been limited to those most applicable to individual 
 homeowners, small businesses, schools, and 
 farms. In a few states, however, municipal systems 
 have also been included. Many of these projects 
 have received Federal funding. The majority of 
 projects demonstrate some form of solar energy. 
 In addition to solar heating and cooling for homes 
 and commercial buildings, a number of examples 
 of farm applications such as solar crop drying are 
 listed, as well as demonstrations of wind energy, 
 
 biomass, photovoltaics, etc. Since all successful 
 solar heating and cooling systems incorporate 
 sensible energy-conserving design, each solar 
 heating and/or cooling project is at the same time 
 an energy-conservation project. When these con- 
 servation designs are of special interest or inven- 
 tiveness, this has been noted. In a few cases, pro- 
 jects demonstrate only conservation measures, 
 such as the construction of buildings underground.

 This report examines the technologic and econom- 
 ic feasibility of converting sugarcane production 
 residues in South Florida to utilizable energy 
 forms. Quantity and location of the residues are 
 given. Current uses of the residues are outlined 
 and compared with other potential uses which are 
 described in the literature. Technological problems 
 in collection of the field residues are discussed. 
 The resulting research and development needs 
 are outlined. An in-depth economic comparison of 
 anaerobic digestion, shaft pyrolysis, and waterwall 
 incineration is presented. Economic feasibility of 
 each of the three processes is presented as a 
 function of plant size using current market prices 
 for energy and the energy price increases which 
 would be necessary to make each of the process- 
 es economically feasible. (ERA citation

 Various methods for conversion of agricultural 
 wastes to usable energy were evaluated for further 
 consideration for user operated and commercially 
 operated systems. Advantages and disadvantages 
 of anaerobic digestion and low Btu gas pyrolysis, 
 the only two alternatives that were considered to 
 be worthy of evaluation for user operated systems, 
 are discussed. Both systems were also considered 
 feasible for use with commercially operated sys- 
 tems. In addition, two liquid product systems, hy- 
 drolysis and fermentation to ethanol and medium 
 Btu gas pyrolysis followed by Fischer-Tropsch re- 
 action to form a liquid product, were evaluated.

 This volume contains articles on various problems 
 of pond pisciculture. The first section is devoted to 
 the genetics and selection of carp. The primary 
 aim of this collection is to state the theoretic princi- 
 ples of carp selection. Several articles deal with 
 the theory of selective breeding, drawing both on 
 the experience of Soviet scientists and on the 
 comparatively scant non-Soviet literature on this 
 problem. The first part of the collection also in- 
 cludes articles on variability of carp as well as on 
 intraspecific and interspecific hybridization and he- 
 terosis. Articles on the organization of fish breed- 
 ing in the northwestern RSFSR end the section 
 and vindicate the policy of dividing fish breeding 
 farms into three types: research stations, fish 
 breeding nurseries, and commercial fish farms. 
 The second, section of this collection consists of 
 articles on intensification of pond pisciculture. Two 
 studies report fish pond diseases and control 
 measures. Konradt and Sakharov report a new 
 commercial method of hatching larvae of carp and 
 other thermophilic fish, involving removal of the 
 egg from its surrounding mucous envelope and in- 
 cubating it in special apparatus. The method is 
 being tested in reservoir hatcheries and in some 
 fish-breeding farm ponds, and offers much prom- 
 ise. (Author)

 A panoramic survey is made of the fundamental 
 tendencies prevailing in the relations between em- 
 ployers, workers, and public authorities in the Afri- 
 can countries which have just attained indepen- 
 dence. There would appear to be not so much a 
 question of bettering the standard of the working 
 class, a rather privileged class as compared to the 
 entire population, as of bringing officials, political 
 leaders and some entrepreneurs, to preoccupy 
 themselves with the masses. The role of the trade 
 unions is not reduced in this new context. (Author)

 The book incorporates theoretical principles of the 
 interaction of wood species in different types of 
 forests and makes recommendations on cultivat- 
 ing high productive plantations of economically im- 
 portant species. The following aspects have been 
 dealt with in this work: studies on the interaction of 
 wood species, trials in forest-steppes for develop- 
 ing stable plantations, typological investigations, 
 aspects of rotation of species, and the problems of 
 intraspecies and interspecies relationships. The 
 author examines the relation of wood species with 
 the environmental conditions, especially with the 
 soil conditions, establishes the competitional indi- 
 ces of wood plants and proves the advantage of 
 mixed plantations over pure plantations. The 
 author also deals with the methods of investigation 
 and the ways of controlling the interactions of the 
 wood species.

 The monograph deals with the biology and cultiva- 
 tion of some invertebrate species which are reared 
 on a mass scale in the USSR: soil oligochetes; 
 free-living nematodes; phyllopod crustaceans; 
 daphniids; chironomid larvae. The author charac- 
 terizes the biology of these species more or less 
 uniformly, and gives a brief outline of the gross 
 morphology. Also discussed are the following 
 topics: distribution and relation to environmental 
 factors; reproduction, growth, and development; 
 population growth; feeding; chemical composition 
 of the body; respiration. The description of cultur- 
 ing methods includes such basic standard data as 
 the initial and peak density of the culture, rearing 
 periods, the maintenance of optimal conditions, 
 manipulations of the culture, feeds and feeding 
 regime, and output. Methods for the maintenance 
 of these animal groups in the laboratory are given 
 in some cases. The book is intended for hydrobio- 
 logists, ichthyologists, and fish breeders. (Modified

 The book deals with the important infectious, para- 
 sitic and noncommunicable diseases of pond 
 fishes. It presents new concepts of the prevention 
 and treatment of diseases by modern means 
 within the framework of the intensive fish breeding 
 methods used today. The book deals not only with 
 diseases of fish commonly occurring in the USSR, 
 carp and trout, but also with diseases of fish im- 
 ported for cultivation in ponds. Particular attention 
 is given to the etiology, biology and epizootology of 
 the disease agents, since knowledge in these 
 
 fields is necessary for the development of efficient 
 methods for the control of the diseases of fish. The 
 book is intended for veterinarians, fish pathologists 
 and fish breeders. (Author)

 meant to help designers at the selection of fibers 
 for an intended end use. After some conclusions 
 have been drawn with regard to the magnitude of 
 particular characteristics (strength, or elongation 
 of yarn), final calculations are made with the use of 
 data referring to definite materials. Tables of the B 
 group (mathematical) allow to determine quickly 
 and accurately the auxiliary values (twist factor, 
 C,D as well as z parameter necessary for calcula- 
 tion of strength), which are used at an appraisal of 
 physical properties of yarn.

 The revegetation of disturbed, arid lands is one of 
 the great challenges of a desert. It is not an impos- 
 sible task, however, if one utilizes and properly 
 manages both the natural and the man-made re- 
 sources available. Through better understanding 
 of the processes governing revegetation and the 
 ability to control them, it is possible for man to 
 more rapidly restore disturbed desert lands. Ter- 
 rain manipulation to form moisture catchment 
 basins, selection of seed from pioneering shrub 
 species, preservation of existing shrub clump fer- 
 tile islands in the soil, supplemental fertilization 
 and irrigation, and transplanting vigorous shrub 
 species are some of the important things that can 
 be done to help restore disturbed desert land. 
 Some of the costs can be off-set by restoring the 
 land to economically important trees and shrubs, 
 or grasses, instead of back to the original vegeta- 
 tion. Thousands of years of historical evidence of 
 man's survival on arid lands attest to success in 
 meeting the challenge of the desert. (41 refer- 
 ences). (ERA citation 03:001379)

 The processes used for the production of metha- 
 nol from naphtha, natural gas, heavy petroleum, or 
 liquefied natural gases are summarized. The use of 
 methanol as an energy source is considered from 
 six aspects: as a hydrogen source, as a source of 
 city gas, for the production of reductive gas for the 
 steel industry, as an automotive fuel, as a fuel for 
 streaming contact combustion in boilers, and as a 
 source of single cell protein. The use of nuclear 
 energy for the production of methanol is briefly 
 considered. (ERA citation 01 :02301 3)

 to see if you qualify for free documents. 
 
 The Latin American Bureau of the United States 
 Agency for International Development has 
 established a special fund to subsidize the 
 purchase of NTIS appropriate technology 
 documents if the information will be used to 
 benefit the poor. Those wishing to register for 
 these document cost subsidies will be required 
 to complete a request sheet stating explicitly 
 how the requested appropriate technology 
 information will be use to benefit the low- 
 income groups in their respective countries. 
 This cost subsidy currently pertains only to 
 requests from countries in Latin America and 
 the Caribbean with USAID missions. (See list 
 below.) 
 
 To apply for the special subsidy please use 
 NTIS APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY DOCU- 
 MENT REQUEST FORM or a copy of the 
 form and send directly to:

 II. If you do not live in one of the 
 countries or you are not ordering 
 this information to directly assist low 
 income groups, you must order the 
 information using the International 
 Technical Information Network order 
 form.
