A Plague of Locusts

The word changes rapidly, as far as the conditions
under which men live are concerned. But nature
herself moves forward very. very slowly. You have
TO count time in loJo0o-year jumps to notice much
change.
A plague Of locusts is ~infesting the land of Egypt
once more.
Thousands Of years ago the locusts had established
themselves. in this same Egypt. as one Of natures
most deadly weapons. AS unaccountable and uncon-
trollable as floods or tornado, they could swoop down
on a green countryside. turn it into a barren waste
and then vanish, leaving famine and destruction be-
hind.
We think Of them as belonging to Biblical times.
But nature changes slowly. She still strikes with the
locusts, just as she still strikes with earthquakes and
other scourgeS. Five thousand years from now the
people who live in the Nile valley will probably find
the situation just the same.
One thing, though. is worth noticing. In ancient
Egypt the inhabitants could do nothing before the
invading locusts but beat their breasts in lamenta-
ton. Today they are fighting back, with considerable
effect-and the story Of their fight helps one under
stand the real extent Of a locust invasion.
Near a town called FL Arish the Egyptians made
their most determined stand. They dug q trench a
mile long across the locusts' line Of advance. Pres
emily a black mass Of locusts seven miles long came
across the plane. The trench filled with them. Case
line was poured in and ignited. the charred bodies
were thrown out and the trench filled with living
locusts again. to be set afre once more. Flame throw
ers like those used in the World War were called into
service.
Finally the advance was repulsed. A bit Of ground
two miles square was covered with dead l~ocusts-black
with them. In places they lay four inches deep.
Thus, while the plague is the same now as 1t was
In the days Of the Pharaohs. nankind's method OF
replying to II has improved immeasurably. And II Is
Just as well that this is so. There is something about
one Of these tremendous onslaughts Of millions upon
millions Of insects that is extremely disquieting.
There have been scientists who have wondered
whether men or insects would ultimately inherit the
earth. Men have brains and Weapons to fight with.
but the insect world has a fecundity that can tri-
umph over almost any sort of opposition. Trying 70
obliterate a tribe Of insects is like trying 70 behead
he Hydra.
However, mans chances in this war are a trifle
better than they used to be. The mosquito. for in
stance. has been completely routed at Panama. And
now Egypt seems to be finding how to deal with the
locusts. The stricken peasants Of Moses day had no
flame throwers or gsscline-soaked trenches to COM
bat their invaders with.

The Stein Song Made a Lot OF Mon
ey, but the University Of Maine
Refused TO Pay $50 for 1t a Few
Years Ago.
NEW YORK, May S.-If, by any
chance, you happen TO be one OF the
umpety-ump million people whist
ling the Stein Song of the University
OF Maine, listen to an amusing yarn.
The song is 20 years old. If Rudy
Vallee and a few others have put
it on the map again it's because
of an experiment made by a music
publishing house to see whether or
not a song could be dragged out Of
the past and plugged" into popu-
larity by means Of the radio.
Originally 1t was acquired by
Carl Fischer. the publisher. and
was not particularly popular. He
stuck 1t away in his safe and for
got about 1t. A few years ago the
college seemed to be interested in
getting II for their very own and
Fischer offered TO sell them the
plates for something life $50. This,
amusingly enough. they thought was
far too high a price.
Very WE'LL When Radio Music
took over the Carl Fischer concern
recently a search was made II an eff
fort TO find old numbers which still
might have a chance. This partic-
ular veteran was dragged from the
cob-webs. The Vallee and other
radio plugs wer tried.
With the result that 1t has sold
something like half a million dol
lars worth OF copies.
And the university thought $50
was too much for 1t.
And while on the subject OF the
song plug. the plugger has gone
through many changes since the
DAYS when he went about the small
towns as a sheet music" salesman.
Today he Is one Of the highest
pressured statesmen in New York;
