Mosquito Has Il
But 6 Years More
Doomsday Set, and All That
Is Needed Is Money
for the War.
New Jerseys Great Fight

The entomologist of the New
Jersey Agricultural Experiment
Station at New Brunswick pre-
diets that the State will be rid of
its mosquito menace in six years
if sufficient war funds are contin-
ued. The misunderstanding fight
has cost about $2,500,00O. Marsh
drainage with a consequent de-
struction of breeding grounds has
done much to Danish the pest and
the reclamation programme has
no doubt been aided by the real
estate boom.
Doomsday for the mosquito in
six years seems prophecy almost
too sanguine to be believed. If
fulfilled, the event might we'll be
celebrated with fitting exercises
by those to whom the insect has
been specially obnoxious. The
prospect is not hopeless; for there
We're no mosquitoes in the Hawai-
ian Islands before sailing ships
took them there. Nor are they
sticklers for climate. They invade
the Arctic regions and may sting
a bear to death if they can reach
his eyes or other parts not well
protected by fur. Those which hi
bernate in the houses of this zone
are less aggressive until real
warm weather arrives.
The mosquitoes facile adapta-
ton to changed environment
might make extinction in six years
seem out of the question were 1t
not for the fact that the species
cannot get start in life where
no stagnant water offers the nee
essary condition for Matching
eggs. But the fight should not
stop with a temporary rout. Once
out, the mosquito should be kept
out.

PRIMARIES POSTPONE
SURVEY OF DISTRICT
Representative Gibeon Finds Some
Subcommittee Members Have
Campaigns On.

The first meeting of the subcommit-
tee of the House District committee
authorized to make an extensive and
comprehensive detailed study of the
administration Of the municipality of
the District of Columbia has been
definitely postponed until around the
GOTH of this month. according to word
received by The Star today from Rep
resentative Ernest w. Gibson, Re-
publican. of Brattleboro, Vt. AS
chairman of the smaller subcommit
tee that made a preliminary 1nvestl-
CATION, including hearings on Com
missioner Fenning, Mr.. Gibson has
been sounding out the other members
of the new subcommittee as to the
date that would be convenient for
them to meet.
Representative Mcleod. Republican,
of Michigan has wired him that
meeting of the subcommittee could
not he called until after September
IA, owing to the fact that he and
others have primary contests on that
date. Representative Gilbert. Demo
crat, of Kentucky has notified Mr..
Gibson that he has an election contest
that will require some of his time
and as he is just starting his cam
paign. he prefers TO. have the Dis
trict investigation postponed. The
Delaware convention, in which Rep
resentative Houston. Republican. is
concerned, takes place also on Sep
tember a.. The Vermont primary is
on the same date, but as Representa-
tive Gibson is without opposition that
would not interfere.
Mr.. Gibson considers 1t unfortunate
that the subcommittee did not or
ganiZe before adjournment of Con-
gress SO that the work of investiga-
tion could have proceeded during the
Summer.
