Washington, D. C.--The elm, eloriflod tree of tho American landscape, Is facing possible OK. tlnetlon. Unless immediate steps arc taken to wipe out tho destrue- two Dutch Elm diseaso, already discovered in tive states, this great tro0 of tho Pilgrims iS destined to go tho way of tho chestnut.
 So writes Joseph Edgar Cham berlin, eminent Boston journalist, In tho May Issue of American For osts, tho Magazine of The Amerl. can Forestry association. Tho dis. ease has already been found in New York, New Jersey, Connect. cut, Maryland and Ohio.
 "ineiplont and scattered though It's attack is" writes MT Chamber. lin, "the disease potentially is az destructive to tho elm Ns the blight was to tho chestnut. It's invasion must be stopped promptly and while 1t ia possible to stop it or tho American elm will go the way of tho chestnut"
 The potential seriousness of the foothold tho disease has galnod on American soil Ia partly recognised by eongross, said Mir Chamborun, who pointed out that $i60,0 900 has boon appropriated for control work and $b0,00O for research work. This sum, however, ho warned, is only ono-fourth tho amount need. cd Immediately to stop tho spread Of tho disease. "Thero can Dc no ponny- -pinehing In dealing with the disoaso In It's inclpient state" he wrote. By such D policy. the elms of tho nation may Do lost, as were tho chostnuts,. and the cost !n- creased mnnyfold."
 Tho dlsoaso was first dIseovered In Amorlea in io30. in Cleveland and Cincinnati, he said. In 1883 n was found In New Jersey and New York, and later in Connecticut and nlono moro than i,b00 trees were
 some idoa of tho way tho dlsease strikes at tho elm trcos may Do gathered from Holland. lin Rot. tordam there were something like 10000 cln trees," Mir Chamberlin writes, "and in eleven years t7,000 have been killed by tho disease. In Nuremberg moro than 10000 trees huvo been destroyed"
 Of all American trees worth saving, the elm comes first, said MT Cham borlin. "Even tho soil in which 1t has sunk It's roots is su. cred earth to millions Of men and women, boys and girls. It was one of tho first trees to attract tho eyes of tho original settlers on our shores. It welcomed them from the woods, from tho river meadows and from the open spaces. They planted 1t to commomorpte their arrival in now land, their mlgrA, tons, their marriages, the births of thoir children. And it grew in luxurious sympathy and signi- ilcancc with their lives and be- came associated with the history of each family"
