lies in the growth of the social instinct
and social responsibility Of the men
who direct these enterprises. In these
basic processes of education and moral
training, of spiritual development you
as the organized lawyers and leaders Of
your community have first response
bility in directing the multitude Of
agencies which can advance this, so
fundamental program.
Parallel with our experience Of the
last so years Of economic change and
regulation, this Nation has encountered
similar new and equally troublesome de-
velopments in the management OF the
problem Of crime. Crime is more per-
sonal, a more individual thing, than
economies. I have often said that you
cannot overtake an economic law with
a policeman. But the only thing that
can overtake a criminal is policeman.
The facts of most crimes are localized;
they must be investigated at the scene; ;
the pursuit OF the criminal must be di-
rected from the community whose peace
has been broken, and the evidence for
his trial can most effectively and most
Justly be presented to his neighbors and
judges in that community. Thus, in
spite of the fact that crime also has
frequently become interstate, the sup

accomplished locally, and fundamentally
must remain the responsibility Of the
State and local governments, and should
not be shifted to the Federal Gov
ernment.
Complicated Criminal Law.
In this field, likewise, you gentle
men of the legal profession have a most
serious duty. The criminal law has
become a complex and often tortuous
thing, responding to the growing COM
plexity Of modern life. But it Is need

GUS officers Of government Is the laws
delays, during which evidence loses its
value, witnesses die, and criminals are
encouraged to believe that through its
maze of technicalities justice can be
neither swift nor sure. You have q
duty to simplify these procedures, to
shorten these processes, TO make the
administration Of law . terror to evil
doers by its promptness and certainty.
There Is another field OF urgent re-
form in the fields of justice-that is.

In the separation of responsibilities
between the Federal and State Govern
ments on matters outside of the eco
nomic field we have constantly to re-
sist the well meaning reformer who,
witnessing the failure of local COM
munities to discharge responsibilities
CT government, to extinguish crime,
and to set up agencies Of government
free of corruption, to move apace with
the thousand social and other advances
which the country sorely needs, con-
! stantly advocates and agitateS that the
applied, that we may have q rigid
, uniformity Of reform throughout the
Nation. Yet even here 1t is better that
we should witness some instances of
failure of municipal and State govern
ments to discharge responsibilities in
protection and government Of their
people rather than that we should
drive this Republic to a centraliza ton
which will mean the deadening of its
great handspring Of progress, which is
the discovery and experimentation and
advancement by the local community.
Diversity within unity Is the essence
of government and progress in our
country. If we are to preserve the
| foundations Of liberty in the community
! and the State, just as is true in the
| case of the individual, we must have
room for self-creation and self-develop-
ment, for it is the sum of these accom-
plishments which makes the progress of
the Nation. We must not believe that
by guaranteeing the medium Of perfec-
ton to all individuals, to all communi-
ties, to all municipalities and all States,
through the deadening hand Of central
ization, we will secure progress.
But wish to revert to the theme
which have mentioned before, which
is that the advance in all these direc-
tions lies in the advance Of public un-
derstanding. Fundamentally, our ca
pacity to extinguish criminality and
| lawlessness lies In the moral training
and moral stature of our people. Fun
damental advancement in the control
of great business and great enterprise

had q beneficial effect on the borer menace,
but it was found that an even more successful
method was to plow the fields deeply in the
Fall rather than to allow them to stand over
Winter before preparing them for the next crop.
At the same time all the debris from the har-
vested crop was cleaned off the field and
burned. Robbed OF place to live over Winter
it naturally follows that the borers do not
live over. -@e
Rotation Of crops IN Q field also serve effec-
lively Ia eliminating pests such the borer,
whi,h live over the Winter in the refuse of the
current crop.
These control methods aimed at the corn
borer also prove highly effective against the
pink bollworm Of cotton the tarnished plant
bug of the apple orchard and the strawberry
weevil.
In The case Of the grape berry moth, cultiva-
ton, which exposes the cocoon during the
Winter and burying beneath the soil during the
grape season, to eliminate this foe OF the

Science Outguessing Insect Pests

THE long years Of study and research carried
on by the Bureau of Entomology of the
Department of Agriculture in an effort to elmi-
nate. o. at least keep down, outbreaks of various
insect pests harmful to agriculture has at last
begun to bear real fruit. Control methods,
which are both practicable and inexpensive,
have been worked out and the agriculturists,
themselves, seeing the wisdom and advantages
Of carrying out the bureaus recommendations,
have turned to these methods with real benefit.
Much of the control work is a mere matter
and entails little or no additional expense to
The farmer. Other methods are based on pre-
dsctions Of insect outbreaks, which can be
Evening star., 1932-12-11

checked at q minimum Of cost and effort be-
fore the infestations become too widespread
In the case Of the grasshopper, for instance,
early planting Of small grains in well plowed
land gives the grain such a start before the
grasshoppers arrive that the hoppers do little
or no damage. This practice the deep-plowing
and early planting. stands as a continual means
Of escaping the really serious loss that comes
with later planting. which permits the hoppers
to get at the young grains when they are first
emerging from the ground.
Predictions of hopper outbreaks also have
served to eliminate the hopper as a serious
threat. For instance, after the particularly
serious outbreak of hoppers in 1881, the bureau
warned farmers that this year, unless proper
control measures were TAKEN the crops would
suffer worse than ever OF course unfavorable
weather conditions would aid the farmers but
Evening star., 1932-12-11

weather cannot be predicted that far IN ad-
vance.
Warned by the bureaus statement, however,
the farmers in the affected area plowed their
land deeply in the Fall and left an ample
growth of weed along the field, edges and in
the roadways. 1t so happened that the develop
ment of cold, wet weather at Matching time re-
suited in the destruction of myriads Of the
young hoppers. but even without this aid the
infestation could have been held to q minimum,
for the weed growths attracted the hoppers
and a plentiful spreading of poison bats in
the weed area took tremendous toll
long study of the European corn borer,
that pest which gained entrance into the
United States in shipment of broom corn,
disclosed that the worm lived over the Winter
in the stubble of corn stalks left in the fields
after the crop was harvested. After consider
able experimentation a device was perfected
by means Of which the stalk could be cut of
close to the ground, instead Of four five
inches above, as Is normally the case. This

President Bunnell
Reports To Board

The tenth annual meeting OF the
Board of Trustees for the Alaska
College last week received the re-
port OF President Charles E. Bun
neil for the year 1881 together
with his report as director of ex-
tension and the report of George
w Gasser, director of the expert
ment station, according to the Fair
banks NewsMiner.
In his report the president COW
cred the financial affairs of the
College at considerable length and
commented upon the difficulties &C.
casioned by the increase of rates
on the Alaska Railroad. He stated
that the increased rates in freight
/ had resulted in the expenditure of
approximately 100000 not includ-
ed in the budget estimate. Com
menting upon this situation the
president said:
ITO meet this situation it seems
advisable to put forth every eff
fort possible to produce maximum
of food supplies on the farm. Milk
can be produced in competition
with meat products and as a matter
of fact in competition with many
items of merchandise now shipped
in by rail. Every car of coal, forty
tons, costs $500 more for freight
J from Healy to College station, a
distance of 100 miles, than it did
year ago. The chances are some
saving can be made by using 500
CORDS of wood next winter. The
81 ool can be put in for about
$500 per cord. At present we pay
$500 per ton for coal at the mine.
92IJ freight, So cents per ton for
labor for hauling. The oil, gas
and depreciation on the truck will
amount to at least rs cents per
ton so the cost of coal per ton in
the bunkers is at least S6.75. From
the standpoint of the College there
may also be a distinct advantage
in paying $3,25O.O0 for labor to
nut 500 cords of wood at the boiler
house as distinguished from paying
la greater amount to put that num-
Der of tons of coal in the bunkers. u
Other subjects covered in Presi-
dent Bunnell's report are as fol-
flows:
Stokers and Wells
The two automatic stokers have
been installed and are very salts
factory. The cost is $3,500.37 as
against the item of 100000 in
the budget. The saving was effect
ed by Engineer Keys, who, with
the assistance of Assistant Engineer
lSullivan, installed the stokers.
Two wells were drilled and equip
ped at cost to date of $2,303.16.
The item in the budget was 3d.
100000. AS in the case of the stok-
ers the supervision of the Chief
Engineer was responsible for the
Saving effected.
College Farm
The farm on December 81 stood
Oh the books at s6,794.09. The sum
of 100000 was available for the
farm from appropriations for the
current year. 1t has presented
many problems and has had dis
couraging features. The College
took the farm over May 1 and by
July /. had expended s2,5222s.
