The cases of six delinquent prop erty owners, charged with failing to clean their sidewalks of snow and ice, were nolled in police court this morning with a warning that the city ordinance concerning such matters must be respected. The warning may be interpreted as the courts willingness to cooperate with the police officials in enforc- ing the ordinance. Many com plaints were filed yesterday con- corning delinquent property own- CTS. Sergeants George Gooding and James Gibbons and Patrolman Thomas Phelan and Joseph Lo- vallo were kept busy notifying the alleged delinquents.

it was thought best to have the matter on the record.
 Judge Jennings said that if the city could not collect the taxes or make any other adjustment the only alternative was foreclosure. He said it is being done.
 Attorney Guilfoile said he did not wish to foreclose in this particular case, because it would mean that between 200 and 250 people would be thrown out of work. A further hearing will be held on the matter.

 One of the principal pests which we have to fight in our gardens in Alaska is the root maggot, which is the larvae of small fly about one fourth fan inch long. or about the size of the common house fly. Almost every garden in Alaska has some of these pests to contend with. Where new, ground is broken up for gardens in isolated districts, one may get by for several years before it becomes necessary to use treatment to control them. They are present all along the North. Pacific coast of the United States. Gardeners in western Wash ington have to combat them in order to raise marketable vegetables which are attacked by them.
 Crops which are most damaged by these pests are the cau2iflower, cab

Some varieties of turnips are more resistant than others. The Petroski seems to be the most nearly maggot- proof.
 There are several species of this fly. Those in which We are most in- terested are the cabbage maggots and the onion maggot. The latter is not. nearly so troublesome as the former These flies are similar in appearance, being of light-grey color with black stripes above and between the wings.
 The adult female deposits.t the eggs on tth estem of the. plant near the surface of the ground or sometimes on the ground near the stalk Each mass of eggs contains from twenty to fifty eggs and can be seen as a. whitish mass. The young maggots immediately craw down the. stalk and start feeding and borrowing into the. tender root tissues. From the date of incubation until the adult maggot appears takes from four to seven. weeks, depending largely upon thel weather conditions. In Alaska there are at least two bronds. each year. The pupa is the stage in which the fly spends the winter.

ThiA method is too expensive for. good sized gardens. Its chief recommend ation is that-it is. easily obtained and applied.
 The method recommended ,byt the Alaska Agricultural College is, that of using corrosive sublimate (mer- curaic chloride). A. ruling. of. tha Alaska Game Commission, makes. ; it unlawful for a trapper to have, cor rosive sublimate, along with many other poisons,. in his possession. This, however, neRde notJ worry a. farmer, as it applies only to licensed trappers. It is very effective, easily applied and perhaps the most. effective of all the | remedies.
 Corrosive sublimate is in the form of a white crystalline. powder. It may be purchased at almost any drug store- pf it may be purchased from seed ] house.

SOVIET FARLEY
PROTESTED

Demanding that the United
States refuse recognition of Rus
STA, the American Alliance of the
United States has written a letter
of protest to President Roosevelt
over his forthcoming converse
tions with Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet
commissar of foreign affairs.
Soviet promises of lucrative
trade amount to nothing, the al
lance declares, unless the United
States will lend that country the
money to make contemplated pur-
chaSes.
The association charges that
"such loans of taxpayers money
would be used by the Soviets to
rehabilitate world communism,
and the evidence indicates that
there would be no effort to make
repayment" It charges further:
"The paramount objection to
recognition is, of course, that
the Soviet Union is an enemy
state, sponsoring, through the
Third International, strikes,
riots, sabotage and revolutionary
activities in the United States,
by its agents here, with the
avOwed purpose of OverthrOwing
our government by force and
violence"

BRITAIN SCRAPS
TARIFF TRUCE

LONDON, Nov. 7 GN.So
Great Britain is withdrawing
from the tariff truce agreed upon
at the International Economic
Conference in London, Walter
Runciman, president of the
Board of Trade, informed the
House of Commons this after
noon.
Britain'S withdrawal is effec-
tive December 7. It is believed to
have been motivated by the fact
that many powers which signed
the agreement, notably France,
have virtually ignored it as a re-
suit of recent wide fluctuations
in foreign exchange.
The tariff truce. originally pro-
posed by the United States. was
for the life of the conference,
which is now in recess but prac-
tically dead.

DeBenque and George A. CORN
ley, charged with theft of $4,000
from Miss Louise Maret, fashion,
able girls finishing school opera
tor, on the ground of improper
and prejudicial testimony intro
duced by the Government.
The testimony was given by
Detective Sergt. Earl P. Hart
man, assigned to the District At
tornev's office. who arrested
Gormley after Miss Maret made
her complaint.
He testified that Gormley de-
clined to make any statement
except in the presence of the
Grand Jury.

Hartman then stated Gormley
cold him certain things concern.
ing the countess and others. In
mediately defense counsel petit
toned Justice Cox to withdraw a
Juror and declare mistrial as a
result Of the testimony. Justice
Cox ruled the testimony should
be disregarded by the jury and
took the miStrial motion under
advisement.
Miss Martha Maret, blind sis

followed Hartman to the witness
chair.
She told of visit made by the
countess and Gormley to the
school she and her sister con-

was very attentive to her sister.
She testified:

Finishes Testimony
Cross examination of Miss
Louise Maret was completed
shortly after the days session be-
gan.
Five hours were spent by the
frail, little French woman on the
stand yesterday-half of which
was given over to a barrage OF
questions fired at her by defense
attorneys. She met each queS-
ton squarely, parted when ap-
parently she thought it wise, and
dismissed facetious inquiries with
repartee that more than once sent
the crowded courtroom into peals
of laughter.
After meeting Gormley through
the countess in October, 1881,
Miss Maret stated, he drove her
to a lonely Brookville. Md, road
a few nights later in her car. He
parked the car. turned out the
lights and within three minutes,
she said, a supposed policeman"
approached the car and threat
ened to arrest them. Gormley
informed her later, she said, the
policeman" could be bribed and
she gave $4,000 to him and the
countess to hush the charge
against them.
Babp Makes Demands
Lashing out in cross-examina-
ton, David Babp, counsel for the
countess, demanded to know what
took place while she and CORN
ley were parked in the car. She
answered:

was in love with me. I sup
pose he had his arm around
me. What he said to me wasn't

DR.. Stubs said two hours had

DR.. Rosenthal said:
