The bishop, who visited the United

II am perfectly certain that young
people in the schools of your great
country are not taught to love Britain
as they should" said the bishop. "In-

of both countries, it is most serious
thing"

ration: Il believe with all my soul
that the whole future of the world
depends upon our two nations keeping
together in the bonds of love, fellow
ship and understanding"
Touching on the tripartite disarma-
ment conference failure, the bishop
said: Let the two countries not mis-
understand one another. Great Brit

that because Great Britain required a
certain number of cruisers, they,
therefore, wanted to dominate the

STATE HANDLING OWN
BEETLE FIGHT

Governor Ritchie has informed the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture by letter that he was lin hearty
sympathy" with the recommends
tions made by Maryland authorities
that the State be allowed to handle
its own Japanese beetle problem
rather than submit to quarantine
of the infested territory.
The Governors letter was in sup
port of the representations made last
week, when a group of one hundred
horticulturists, including scientists
from the University of Maryland, ap-
peared before the Federal Horticul-
tural Board.
Because. of the presence of Japan
ese beetles in Baltimore, Cambridge,
Chesapeake City, Perryville and
Ridgely, it is feared here that the
Federal Government will extend the
quarantine line into Maryland.
DR.. Raymond A. Pearson, presi-
dent of the University of Maryland,
informed the Governor that his de-
partment had sufficient money to
conduct a campaign of soil treatment
and spraying against the insect. He
added that this method of attacking
the beetle had been found effective.
A Federal quarantine against
Maryland would greatly inconven-
ience large interests of the State, DR..
Pearson asserted.
