Lee A. Strong, Chief of the
Plant Quarantine and Control
Administration, ammo u n C e d
Tuesday that the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture has decid-
ed to continue the Federal reg
ulations to prevent the spread
of the Japanese beetle.
A conference was held in
March to consider the possible
revocation of this and other
guarantees. Representatives
from twenty-five States, the
District of Columbia, and the
Dominion of Canada attended.
The meeting afforded a full
opportunity for anyone present
to express his opinion as to the
advisability of removing the
Federal quarantine on account
of the Japanese beetle.
The sentiment was almost
unanimous that the Federal
quarantine restrictions should
be maintained.
In considering the subject
since the conference, the de-
partment has reached the con-
clusion that it will be more ad.
vantageous and economical in
the long run for the Federal
government to continue the
program of scouting. quaran-
tine enforcement, and the GER

work. It would also be prac-

to maintain uniformity of re-
quirement and to cover the
borders of the infested area
with uniform efficiency to de-
termine the rate of natural
spread. It is therefore helisy-

DEPRESSION HITS RACING
ASSOCIATION

The Maryland Jockey Club
has passed it's 1882 dividend
and cut the salaries of its offic-
ials 20 per cent to meet the re-
adjustment of this economic
era.
Also this oldest racing or
ganization in Maryland, along
with Havre de Grace, Laurel
and Bowie has asked permits
sion of the Maryland Racing
Commission to reduce it's over
night purses from $1,000 to ST.
900 and its steeplechases from
$4,000 to 81, 500 in it's retrench-
ment policy.
This is the first time in the
history of pari-mutuel wager
ing in Maryland, both before
and after the advent of the
Maryland Racing Commission
in 1920, that the tracks have
asked to decrease instead of in-
crease their purse money.
Since the fall of 1929 the
money wagered at Pimlico,
Bowie and Laurel has fallen off
considerably. Several years
ago about 1000, 900 was wag-
cred for one season, but the
amount fell off in 1880 and last
year it dropped to about $45.-
100000.
