 BRITISH DECISIONS

No Welcome In Press

London, Jan. II Pl-Announce- ment of A. V. Alexander first lord of the admiralty, that Great Britain is willing to reduce it's cruiser com plement from 70 to 50 at the forth coming London conference has not found so strong q welcome from the British press as he might have hoped.
 Only two papers commented on the admiralty lords speech. made at Sheffield. and in the editorials Of both Of these there was q distinct note of warning and fear lest the Kellogg pact as guarantee of peace was being oVcrrated, and Great Britain's security might be compro- missed.
 The Times, Independent, moder- ately conservative, but supporting any government as far as possible, called for q more detailed eXplana- tion as 10 how the reduction was justified, and argued that the peace fui outlook of the moment was due rather 10 universal war Weariness lhan to international agreements.
 Praise Kellogg Pact
 'Thc Kellogg pact-all honor to it-rcs sisterod and confirmed an cX- isting state of affairs, but did not create new situation" the Times said. For this r&ason there is no cause merely by being signatory to ihe pact for such q substantial change of view"
 Even assuming the possibility Of var at present Is negligible. the paper contcrdcd. it is beginning al Inc wrong end To cut down our cruisers which are needed for peace as well as for war instead of doal- ing first with huge hattleShips which DNIst for war and war only ="
 The Times noted with ~aGstac- ton that the admiranty's consent to reduction O. cruisers was "hGlged about with Very proper 1cStriclions,' but said It did not find this sufficient and that what First Lord Alexander said about the cruiser question made urgently nee "ssary "a comprchensNe. reasoned statement Of the principles ON which Inc government is approaching the entire subject matter Of the naval conference"
 The Daily Telegraph. conservative, declared that most people will re- gard the governments binding it. self on the assumption of assured peace a "reckless gamble with the nations security and urged that notwithstanding the importance or the pact it lis merely udicrous 10 treat 1t as an absolute guarantee of peace,' especially since several powers qualified their acceptance 1f 1t Wilh reservations.

RED CROSS CALL

Campaign in Prince Georges
Extended to December |.
Appeals for Aid Received.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
EVANSVILLE. Md, November "a
Because Of the slow response of the
people Of the county the annual roll
call of the Prince Georges County Red
Cross Chapter has been extended until
December /, 1t was announced today by
H. L. Leonard of Hyattsville, chairman
of the committee In charge of the cam
paign.
Though Leonard has received only
partial reports from a few communities
there Is no doubt, he said, that contri-
buttons are coming in slowly. This
Is extremely unfortunate, he said, in
view of the fact that his surveys indi-
cate that many people Of the county are
in need and doubtless will be in even
worse straits when real cold weather
arrives.
Many Enroll in County.
Mr.. Leonard wishes again to empha-
size that residents of Prince Georges
County employed in the Government
departments at Washington may enroll
in the Red Cross in this county and by
showing their membership card at their
place Of employment obtain for 1t credit
for the membership.
In view of the unusual distress ex-
pected In the county this Winter efforts
are being made to secure 5000 members.
Membership dues are 81. OF this amount
half goes to the National Red Cross
and half remains in the county, which
means that the county will get $4,000
should 5000 members be secured. Mr..
Leonard urges that as many residents
OF the county as possible take out a
sustaining membership at SIS:
1t was expected that q substantial
number of members would be obtained
by solicitors, who were stationed at the
election polls, November 4, but the in
clement weather proved a serious han
dicap.
Aid Calls Received.
Mr.. ksonard said that he has re-
ceived several calls for aid which he
has referred TO the Associated Charities
OF Hyattsv&le and vicinity.
Contributions may be left with or
mailed to Mr.. Leogaard at the Washing
ton Suburban Gas Co. Offices, Hyatts-
vile; William s. Hill, cashier Of the
First National Bank of Southern Mary
land, at Upper Marlboro, who is treas
urer or the county Red Cross chapter:
MRS. A. 3. Gahan, Berwyn, who Is sec
rotary of the chapter, or any of the au-
thorized solicitors m various sections of
the county.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, November "a
A few thousand dollars worth of para
site flies saved almost 100000 worth
of peaches in Connecticut this year.
This bit of scientific news, issued at
the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment
Station today. forecasts possible curb
of the Oriental peach moth.
The flies are the latest chapter in
the scientific version Of setting thief
to catch thief, one of the most effec-
tive of all crop projections.
Eggs and Larvae Killed.
The parasitic flies were developed by
Nature, but mans strategy arranged
the unusual success of the Connecticut
campaign. Two kinds of flies were used,
which, so to speak, caught the moths
both coming and going. One band

moth. The trichogramma was distributed
in the form OF about 4.00O, 900 eggs on
cards which were hung In peach trees
to hatch. About $4,000 live macrocen-
trus flies were shipped.
The director of this experiment is
DR.. Philip Garman, assistant erltomolo-
gist. He says he wishes to be pessi-
mistic before offering predictions, and
to try the flies for one or two seasons
more, Just to make certain that Nature
is some manner unbeknown to science
may not have added some special con-
ditions of her own which partly &C.
count for this years success.

robbed the moths eggs; the other their
young.
Attack on the eggs was made by tri-
chogramma, fly so small that 1t is
almost invisible. It bores holes in peach
moth eggs and through them inserts
its own eggs. From such eggs no moths
at all are born. but only trichogramma.
The other flies, macrocentrus, are
much larger and lay their eggs on the
bodies CT the peach moth larvae. This
allows the larvae a chance to do dam
age, but not very much, for presently
the cocoon out of which a peach moth
should emerge sends forth macrocentrus,
which, like the tiger, has the moth
inside.
Other Tests Arranged.
These two types of parasite flies were
sent to 140 Connecticut orchards which
a year ago lost 100000 from the peach
