Army halts open air chemical tests at Dugway Proving Ground
The Army suspends open air tests of lethal chemicals at Dugway Utah after a House subcommittee inquiry led by Henry S. Reuss. The move delays spraying from planes and follows concerns over public health safety and open disclosure. Laird said germs may still be used to produce toxins for the chemical weapons stockpile and Congress will be informed before any resumption.
