Context added by this archive

Breeding places is a phrase for insects and for disease. It is applied here to the places where several hundred thousand people were living, in a Kentucky paper in 1974, in the paper’s own headline voice and without quotation marks.

Five months earlier the El Paso Herald-Post had those same camps struck from the air in small italic type above a banner about a reprisal (CP-1974-001).
