In a 1953 cold war experiment, the Army sprayed clouds of toxic
material over Minneapolis dozens of times
and may have caused miscarriages and still-births,
a public television station here has reported.

The sprayings in Minneapolis and other cities were described then
as part of an effort 'to develop an aerosol screen to protect
Americans from fallout in case of an atomic attack' …
The material sprayed in Minneapolis was zinc cadmium sulfide,
a carcinogen, and the Army was actually testing how chemicals
would disperse during biological warfare,
the station reported.

One of the sites sprayed in Minneapolis was a public elementary
school where former students have reported an unusual number of
stillbirths and miscarriages .…

In its report, the station quoted experts as saying zinc cadmium
sulfide was toxic and might cause cancer.
It said it was sprayed 61 times in four parts of Minneapolis,
from generators in the rear of trucks or from rooftops.

One former student of the sprayed school told the station that
of her three children, one had Down's syndrome, another was
profoundly retarded and a third had a learning disability."

This was all done in the cause of Chemical and Bacteriological
Warfare.
We've read about its existence.
It appears in the news every once in a while. The Soviets were
said to possess a nightmarish capacity. President Nixon made
headlines around the world when he announced he would seek a ban
on it. (Nothing happened.)

It made big headlines when herds of sheep mysteriously fell over
dead in their fields near the Army's secretive CAB lab at Dugway,
Utah. The Army, of course, lied through its teeth and denied any
knowledge of what might have happened,
but the public discovered years later that the wind changed
on a day when they were testing one of their deadly airborne
toxins.
