JEALOUS OF SOVEREIGNTY
eeIgians See infringement in Parts
Of Pact With England

Brussels, Feb. 9.-(By A.. P.)-Sc-
rious Emergencies Of opinion marked
the discussion Of the proposed Anglo
Belgian military pact today by the For
eign Affairs Commission of the Cham
ber Of Deputies.
Objections were based on the absence
of clearncss as regards the danger
against which the pact is designed to
guarantee Bc'gium's security. \ ma
jority of the commission deemed it in
disEcnsable that the treaty should state
definitely that the guaranty is aga inst
any possible attack by Germany. Other
wise, it is held. the pact would be
equivalent to II british protccloraie
rather than protection.
The clause prohibiting BclgAim from
concluding any other convention in con
tlict with the Anglo Be.gian pact is re.
gardcd as restriction upon Belgium 5
sovereign rights. In other words, it
was argued that while recognizing the
advantages such treaty would bring
TO Belgium it is unacceptable under any
form that would be susceptible Of COM
promising Bclgium's independence.

fruit colors. Fruit on weak or poor
ly nourished trees is especially sus-
ceptible.
There is not so much danger of
anthracnose, if the dead wood has
been pruned to eliminate Withertip.
II this pruning has been neglected,
the fruit should be watched closely.
1t is suggested that weekly inspec-
tions be made in any event to be sure
that the disease does not develop.
Ammoniacal solution of copper
carbonate is recommended for the
control of anthracnose. The spray
ling must be prompt and thorO if it is
to give protection. Every part OF the
fruit must be mOistened, but not
drenched. To do other than efficient
spraying is useless. Keep the solu-
ton from the leaves and branches as
much as possible. Repeat it ten days
or two weeks later. Results will
show in about four weeks.
