Abstract
THE annual meeting of the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Angewandte Entomologie will be held in Frankfort-On-Main on May 13-16, when three major problems in economic entomology will be discussed, namely, the control of bedbugs, mosquitoes and pests of stored products. Leaders of discussions on these problems will be Mr. A. W. McKenny Hughes, of the British Museum (Natural History) and secretary of the Medical Research Council Bedbug Committee, Prof. E. Martini, of the Institute of Maritime and Tropical Diseases, Hamburg, and Mr. E. Bernfuss, technical manager of the Stadtliche Lagerhaus of Vienna. It is felt that all three problems are of international importance and urgently require attention, and it is hoped that medical officers and others concerned in public health, professional entomologists, warehouse managers, manufacturing chemists interested in insecticides, and chemical engineers interested in fumigation equipment will attend the meeting. Full particulars of the meeting can be obtained from Dr. W. Rasch, Hermann Goring Ufer 3, Frankfurt (Main) 1.
