Noted Leader
Pacifists To
Be Arrested
Will Mark Beginning of
Campaign Against War
Obstruction

One Of the best known war obstruc.
tionists in the United States will soon
be taken into custody on the charge of
violating the espionage act, according to
report that was current in the CORR
doris of the Federal Building yester-
day.
The arrest Of this man and proceed
lngs against others are expected to
mark the beginning of a government
move against various war opponents,
who under the guise Of pacifsts, have
been exerting themselves in the inter-
est of q pro-German peace.
According to the current report, the
man who now faces arrest had more
than local fame as an educator before
he blossomed forth as the leader of
one of the most radical schools of
thought in tho East. More recently
he has figured prominently in the af-
fairs Of the notorious Peoples Coun-
Gil and as the author of various works
specifically calculated to interfere with
the operations Of the draft act, with
the various Lib erty loans and the ma
ticnal war programme as whole
Talked About "plutocracy"
This has been done by picturing the
war as u great profiteering enterprise
on the part of "the plutocracy"
through which to clinch it's grip on
the United States and by describing
the draft act as the machine by which
it. is proposed to fasten upon the
United States an enormous army mod
el!ed OH the lines of the German
system.
The draft was also described as the

tions, were to coin billions at The cx-
rense of the workers, and escape bank

tion faced as a result of it's loans to
Europe prior to Americas entrance into
the war.
Some of these works have been sup
pressed, while others freely circulate

cral Building, the arrest of the
agitator will explain the presence in

America and the Allies, provided it

Contrary to previous reports, it was

Precautions Being Taken.

More than half Of the insect pests
that annually cause immense losses
in fruits and vegetables Of the United
States could have been kept out Of
this country By thorough quarantine
against them, according to onlcials Of
the United States department Of asri-
culture. To guard against more in-

has resulted In the bars being put mp
wherever the pests are likely to enter.
Among the insects Of other lands
that have not yet become established
IN this country are the serious pests
known popularity as fruit flies. They
resemble ordinary house flies but are
far more beautiful, inasmuch as their
wings are prettily spotted and band
ed and their bodies are usually more
brightly c0lored. They are like house
flies also in that they lay small, white
eggs that hatch Into whftish magg0ts.
However, the maggots do not develop
In refuse or decaying matter as do
those Of the house fly. but they feed
upon the living tissues Of fruits. nuts
and vegetables. Eggs are laid just
under the skin of the host plant or
fruit and these hatch into the mag
gots which burrow in all directions
through the pulp. Az the maggots
tunnel about they cause decays to
develop and these rotting areas often
produce greater injury than the mag
gots themselves.
Where Danger Lies. -
Increasing imports from the coun-
tries where fruit flies now abound. e1-

Of the earth,> increasing density Of
population in the warmer portions Of
