197121131Buffalo NY: Six-Fourteen-Seventy Inc 1971. Trade paperback 72 pp. Fine. A detailed analysis of clashes between police and crowds attending an arts festival in the Allentown neighborhood of Buffalo NY on June 14 1970. Sources differ on who started the incident but it is clear that spectators to the arrest of a disorderly person threw rocks and bottles at the police and the police responded with extensive use of tear gas sending many people -- including small children -- to the hospital and leaving the community outraged at what was perceived as an excessive response. The authors combed through approximately 200 affidvits from people who were present as well as extensive media coverage of the incident and concluded that both police and politicians refused to concede that mistakes had been made and that the news media unquestioningly accepted the official narrative.

1929002875Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1929. First Edition. Very good.

Published by the Bureau of Biological Survey the pamphlet described the menace that "vagrant" cats were and presented with exhaustive directions the scematics for building a trap to humanely catch the said cats. The problem came with the follow-up explanation for how to get rid of the cats i. e. three alternate but equally barbaric methods involving carbon disulphide calcium cyanide and/or a body of water. The authors did warn the readers that the mentioned chemicals were "highly explosive and extremely toxic." In 1885 - 86 Congress established the Office of Economic Ornithology in the Department of Agriculture to study the migratory patterns and feeding habits of birds and to conserve their population to manage wildlife refugees to oversee predators etc. It would be renamed the Bureau of Biological Survey in 1905.
