BABY PUZZLE
POWDERED BY
7 SCIENTISTS
Staff Of Specialists to Make
Many Tests in Hos

By United Press
CHICAGO, July 22.-All the re-
sources of science were resorted to
today in an effort to determine
whether Mr.. and Mrs. William Wat
kins should trade their baby for
that of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles BAN

1t never would have occurred to
the families to contemplate such
trade had not Watkins discovered
on the infant his wife brought home
from the hospital the name BAN
berger" on a piece of adhesive tape.

berger home had been taped wat

Seven Scientists Confer
In consequence of this mix-up,
seven scientists solemnly set to work
today to solve the identity of the
infants, both born June 80 at the
Englewood hospital.
Tests made soon after mistake
was uncovered failed to reveal any
thing to distinguish one baby from
the other.
DR.. Arnold Kegel, Chicago health
commissioner, assembled his staff
of specialists in a preliminary con-
ference Monday night.
There was general agreement no
single test will be sufficient to show
positively the parentage of the in
FAINT boys, but taken together series
Of different tests will prove con-
clusively whether the babies are in
the right homes or should be trans

IN COSTLY WAR
ON CORN BORER
Destructive Pest Spreads
Rapidly Across Nation;
Toll Is Huge.

Bv ScripBs-Howard EcirspaDcr Alliance
WASHINGTON, July 22.-An
ordinary sort Of worm which came
into the United States in a ship
ment OF broom corn from Italy
thirteen years ago has cost the ma
ton a billion dollars in crop losses
and the department Of agriculture
has given up all hope Of eventual
eradication.
approximately 100000 square miles
in sixteen states are under federal
quarantine because Of the European
corn borer Infestation, and the area
IS expanding at the rate Of about
5000 square miles a year.
Already half way across Indiana
from his first United States abode
along the Massachusetts, seaboard,
experts anticipate that when the
bosea spreads to the great corn
states Of Illinois and Iowa he will
become more expensive than the
boil weevil, which has cost the south
billions Of dollars in the last twenty
five years.
Plant diseases cost the farmers of
the United States a total Of $780,
100000 annually, according to re-
cent survey by DR.. r. J. Haskell,
plant pathologist of the agriculture
department. The boil weevil. corn
borer and Mediterranean fruit fly.
which two years ago invaded the
Florida citrus belt, make up about
two-thirds Of the total.
The corn borer eggs are planted
by moths on the leaves of young
corn. When Matched, the worms
eat into the stalk, frequently de-
vouring so much of the pith that
the stalks fall. If the dead stalks
are allowed to remain above ground
throughout the winter. as is usually
the case. a new &c leration of moths
ind their wings III the early spring.
Carried by the wind. they soon
spread the eggs to distant fields.
The infested area now extends to
the northeastern point of Illinois.
Only destruction of the infested
stalks serves to curb the propaga-
ton Of the borer. The department
of agriculture urges complete eradi-
cation of all stalks as rapidly as
the corn is harveSted-either by
feeding, burning over the fields, or
deep plowing-under.

STEEL PRODUCTION
ON SMALLER SCALE
Market. Is Called Spotty in
Weekly Trade Review.
Ingot Output Off.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May Iron and steel
prices have undergone additional re-
adjustments, buying remains exceed
ingly cautious and production shows
further slight curtailment, Iron Age
will say tomorrow in its weekly review
Of the industry. Ingot output for the
country averaged n per cent, compared
with 7S per cent last week.
"In a spotty market" the review
states, with expanding demand for
certain products offset by diminishing
requirements in other lines, it is diff
cult to discern a definite trend. Al
though steel plants have been produc-
ing considerably less than in 1929 their
output compares favorably with that
of previous years. Ingot production
IN April at 159,358 tons a day fell "a
per cent below the March rate, but
was the largest for any four months
average in 1929 and 1928. Output in
the first third of this year has been
exceeded only by the corresponding
periods in 1929, 1928 and 1926.
pig iron production makes a less
favorable showing. According to blast
furnace returns to the Iron Age, April
output was 3,181 1868 tons, or 106,062
tons a day, compared with 3,246,17l
tons. or 104,715 tons day in March,
a gain in daily rate of 1,347 tons. or
1871 per cent. However. the April rate
was the smallest for any fourth month
since 1922. Output for the first third
of the year at 1904 ,423 tons has been
exceeded In 10 of the last IA years.
Price weakness, although still EVIL
dent, is not new development in iron
and steel since the trend of the market
has been downward since the middle
of 1929. AS measured by the Iron
Age composite for finished steel, prices
are $3.50 net ton lower than IL
months ago and the recession in indi-
vidual products has been even more
severe, in the case of wire nails amount
ing to $40 ton"
The review says that for the third
consecutive week pipe line awards fea-
tured the steel demand and that struc-
tural steel awards for the past week.
at about $1,000 tons, did not maintain
the increased activity of the preceding
week, when $4,000 tons was let. New
work that came into the market, ac-
cording to the review, amounted to
little more than 10000 tons.
The Iron Age composite price for
finished steel dropped to 1929 cents
pound, from 2.242 cents last week
and is 1888 net ton below the price
of a year ago. The pig iron COM
posite price remains at $17.67 gross
ton, 81 below what 1t was year ago.

or got through with him.
Through for good. I'd been
through a good many times. but this
time IL was for good
Il divorced Stan in Reno. He
made me a nice settlement and I
went abroad 10 live.
Il could have married two or
three times. nice. llkable chaps, but
somehow / never quite got over
Stan.
Il had plenty or money and lots
OF friends. but somehow / was al.
ways lonesome. / felt sort OF like a
trunk when somebody has lost the
check and IL keeps travelling back
and forth. up and down, In and out
TO dark. dusty baggage rooms and 10
wet. windy. piers at the end Of long
wharves-lost.
