AS result there was only slight increase in
the average abundance Of the borer for the en-
tire area. In Michigan there was an actual
decrease
The situation is roughly similar to that of
1926-the year Immediately preceding the big
cleanup campaign OF 1897. Given favorable
season, enough borerS are present in the older
infested section to cause serious infeStation in
1880, unless farmers apply control measures on
an adequate scale.
"Those familiar with developments find con-
siderable reason for encouragement. To stop
the spread of the borer would require exterrnt-
nation. To exterminate the borer we would
have to make of the entire infested region a
desert. 1t. is safe to predict that eventually
the borer will spread through the entire corn

of it is unavoidable. This does not imply the

SE NATE BEGINS DISCUSS SION OF REORGANIZATION
Ste el $ Controller Bill'' Reaches Senate Floor
 Amendments Adopted

The Senate yesterday began its consideration of SteeTs measure for the reorganization of the eXecu- tive branch of the Territorial Gov ernment, embodying in large de- gree, the provisions of the noted Controller Bill" of the 1927 session For almost two hours in Committee of the Whole, it studied the meas ure, reading it section by section and agreeing to a number of amendments.
 There was only one change of material import made in the meas ure, and that has yet to be formal ly approved by the Senate, al- though it was tentatively adopted in the informal session.
 Affects Attorney General
 Section Thirty three of the bill as originally written and introduced had given the Attorney General the authority to institute lawsuits, whenever he deems it proper to do so," regardless of the opinion of the Board of Control, which the measure seeks to create as a sort of super governmental power. An amendment by Senator Dimond striking out that provision was adopted with Senator Steel, it's au- thor, in opposition Senator Di- mond argued that the Attorney General is merely the paid legal representative of the Territory, that the Board of Control, if es- tablished, would compose the exec- utive branch of the Government, and that it should have the author ity to direct the actions of the legal department. "No attorney in private practice enters lawsuits without the express sanction of his client, and no legal representative of the public should have the power to do so," declared MT. Dimond.
 Other Amendments
 Two other amendments of some import were agreed upon. One of these prohibits anyone who was on March 4, an officer of the Federal or Territorial Government or bu- reau or an employee thereof, from being elected as auditor.
 The power sought to be given the Control Board of dictating the conduct of the several departments was abruptly Topped off by a third amendment. The measure carried the following provision:
 "A majority shall constitute Q quorum, and each shall have a vote even on a matter concerning his own office, duties and rights

BOEING PLANE
 MAKES FLIGHT

Taking advantage of the fine weather today, E. J A. Burke, pilot of the six-passenger plane of the International Airways Company, took a number of Juneau people for hops this afternoon, including two members of The Empire staff.
 Leaving the water below the rock dump the plane flew up, past Men denhall Glacier, going at a speed of from 100 to 120 miles an hour and at an altitude of nearly 1000 feet, on the rides which lasted from 15 to 20 minutes each.
 From four to five passengers, sat comfortably in the luxuriously fitted, enclosed cabin of the plane cn each trip and watched the houses of Juneau and Douglas grow smaller as altitude was gain ed.

HIGHWAY OPEN
 FOR TRAFFIC

Having been closed to pleasure drivers for about two weeks, the Glacier Highway is now open for driving, according to M. D. Will lis1ss, e.;s e-,ginec. of the U. s. Bureau of Public Roads. While the road is not in finished condition at present, the worst places have been smoothed over and filled in with crushed rock, and it is passable once more.
 During the last ten days. since the weather has permitted working on the highway, L. M. Jones, fore- man, has had crews with trucks and graders busy constantly. About 1000 yards of crushed rock from the Alaska Juneau Mill, have been put on the first two miles of the road. A layer of coarse rock has been put on the worst places for a base, and later will be topped with finer crushed rock.
 This is the first material from the mine crusher that has been used on the highway, MT. Williams said. Previously all of the gravel used on the highway was hauled from glacial and beach deposits. The application of this rock and a few days of dry weather made it possible to repair and smooth the highway so that it is in condition to support normal travel and there is no reason why people should not use the road at their pleasure, he declared

 Gorgeous Experience
 It was @ gorgeous experience and one that will be repeated by at least one of the afternoons passen- gers, as often as opportunity per- mits. The mountains and ATenden- hall Glacier were beautiful from the air, which was calm and smooth Even the bump expected on landing failed to materialize.
 President P. T. McCarty, of the International Airways, Pilot Burke and George Lortie, mechanician, were extremely gracious in giving as many Juneauites as time per- mitted, an opportunity to ride in the plane.

 PRESIDENT GARDEN
 CLUB; TALK ON SOIL

At the annual election of the Ju- neau Garden Club held last night, M. D. Williams, 1928 vice president, was elected president for the ensu- ing year, succeeding J. w. Leivers.
 Allen Shattuck was elected vice. president succeeding Mir. Williams and Ann Coleman was reelected secretary treasurer. The meeting was enthusiastic and attended by a large number of members. Follow ing the election of officers, J. P. Anderson gave the last of his se- ries of lectures that have been the feature of the club meeting the past year.
 The topics of MT. Anderson's talk was Soils and Fertilizers" The lec- ture was interesting and highly in- strUctive. Several samples of diff ferent soils were shown and demon strations as to how to combine them for the best results for the home garden. The various defi- ciencies of plant food in certain soils was explained and the proper fertilization to overcome the lack of nutrition values was thoroughly explained.
 MT. Anderson displayed more thar 30 varieties of tulips, all in bloom selected from the large stock al his greenhouse. The collection wa gorgeous in color combinations anc each variety was near-perfect plant and bloom.

imposed upon them, by the laws of this Territory"
 This language, declared Senator Frame, can only be interpreted to mean that the Board has the right to meddle in the affairs of every Territorial officer, and to say how each office should be run. After some discussion the words, "and each shall have a vote even on a matter concerning his own office. duties and rights imposed upon them by the laws of this Territory" ]" were stricken.
 Pass Two Measures
 The Senate passed two measures yesterday. One of these allotted s5 00O from the Second and Fourth Division road funds for improving the old Signal Corps telegraph line between Panama and Unalakleet for use as a telephone line. The other allotted $5,OO0 from the Sec ond Division road fund to relieve Nome from payment of that sum during thea biennium for mainten- ance of the Nome Harbor project.
 Senator Dimond was the author of two bills introduced yesterday. One of these empowered the Treas urer to make refunds of money paid in for fish trap licenses where the traps covered are not driven and operated At present, relief bills are passed at each session of the Legislature to care for instances of this nature.
 The second measure is for admin istration at a nominal cost of small estates.
 House Passes Bills
 The House, meeting at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, for the first time this session, showed it's capac- ity by passing ten Senate bills and considering the Workmen's Com pensation Act, one of the lengthiest measures introduced so far This measure was read in it's entirety and amendments correcting lingu- istic errors were adopted. The bill was held over in second read ing today for other clarifying amendments.
 The Senate measures passed were Nos. 10, 13, IA, 15, 16, IT, Is, all of which are re-enactments of sta- tutes passed in 1927 and reached the Governor after the Legislature had taken final adjournment, and Nos. 20, 21, and 9, which clarify existing statutes on the procedure of attachments of property by the United States Marshal where such property is claimed by any person other than the defendant.
