Pine BEETLE
RAYACESS Seen
Destroys Millions Of DOL
lars of Timber in South
.. Annually

The Southern Pine beetle, a
small blackish insect, about one
eighth of an inch long, destroys
millions of dollars worth Of pine
timber in the southern states an
nually.
Occasionally patches of dead
and dying pines may be seen
throughout the southern states.
These group killings can usually
be attributed to the Southern
Pine beetle. This insect attacks
whenever conditions occur favor
able for its growth and develop
ment.
Recent Investigations show that
aGnolmally dry spells bring about
favorable conditions for outbreak,
by weakening the trees and Great
ing a more favorable condition IN
the inner bark for the rapid de-
vcloEment Of the broods Of the
beetle. Normal or heavy rainfall
checks the Development or may
eliminate the beetle.
This beetle does not usually at
tack pines under 20 years old or
trees that are strong and vigor-
Gus. Trees which have been weak
ened by ovcrcrowding, blowing
down, lightning, or other agen-
cies are usually the first trees at
tackled. Freshly cut pines or cir
died pines provide an excellent
situation for beetles to develop
and cause serious damage to adj
Joining timber. Frequently we OBJ
serve a patch Of dying pines in
midsummer, which is traceable
directly to the cutting Of a pine
in warm weather. The practice of
cutting pines should be avoided
whenever possible.
However, if it becomes neces-
sary to cut pines adjacent to
other pines in warm weather, the
trees should be felled in north
and south directions and limbed.
After they have lain few days,
turn completely over. In warm,
well exposed situations, insects
under the bark can be killed off
in this manner.

Soil Program
Gives Impetus
TO Farm Plans
Figures Showing Good Inn
pr0yement Are Made
Public

RALEIGH, May 5.-The soil
Improvement program is expect
ed to add new impetus to a num-
Der of good farming practices
that have already gotten off to a
good start in North Carolina.
The production of hay, sor-
ghums, alfalfa, clover, lespedeza,
and other legumes - which has
been gaining ground rapidly dur
ing the past few years-is one of
the main points of the new pro-
gram, said Dean |. o. Schaub, of
State College.
To show the advancement al
ready made in good farming prac-
tees, the dean pointed out that
the acreage of clover and lespe-
deza grown for hay in this state
increased $50 per cent from 1929
to 1884.
According to the agricultural
census, the 1929 acreage of clo-
yer and lespedeza grown for hay
was 20,884. In 1884 it jumped to
137,062 acres. The number of
farms on which these crops were
grown rose from 5,073 to 22,373
during the same period.
The acreage of annual legumes
saved for hay increased III per
cent, or from 269,010 to 585, 1872
acres, the dean stated. The num-
Der of farms on which they were
grown rose from 44,216 to 1885,
G68.
The number Of acres in sor-
ghums grown for silage, hay and
fodder expanded from 1857 to
27,642. or 222 per cent. In 1929
SOrghums were grown for these
purposes on 4,75S farms, as com
pared with 1875 farms in 1884,
The total increase of all hay
and sOrghumS grown for forage
during the 1929-34 period was
from 552,976 to 1,009,14 acres,
or 80 per cent, Dean Schaub OBJ,
served.
The production of such feed
crops, he added, tends to conserve
the soil and at the same time il
provides livestock with the type
OF feed needed for vigor, health
growth, and high productivity
The economy of homegrown
reeds also make possible a bigger
profit.

 The speaker also suggested that 1t is not so much by following rad ical, or what he termed radical minds, that we are apt to be led astray as by following any group and not able to act and think for ourselves.
 Rev. Harold Craw, organizer of the new movement, was in charge of the arrangements for yester- days meeting and the following new officers were inducted:
 President, Benjamin Shinn, West Side Hill Methodist; vice-president in charge of program, Lawrence E.

Personal Papers Stolen

Cambridge, Mass, March 2--(UP) Police apparently were without a clue today to the disappearance of personal papers of Dwight w. Nor row, Jr., of Hnglewood, N. J., Harvard graduate student.
 Though the papers were said to have included pictures of his sister, Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh, and the second Lindbergh child, police have been unable to find any connection between the possible theft and the Lindbergh Kidnapping case. Correspondence with his mother widow of the late U. s. senator from New Jersey, and her itinerary on her present European tour also were among the missing documents.
 Further complicating the mystery was a visit two days later of a woman claiming to represent news syndicate.
 Morrow discovered the papers were missing on his return from a weekend skiing trip two weeks ago. he reported to Colonel Norman H. 6chwarkopf of the New Jersey state police. Schwarzkopf notified Cap tain John F. Stokes of the Massa- chusetts state police, who has direct cd the local investigation. Morrow's room was searched for fingerprints, but cleaners had removed any that might have been there.

Terror under which the Jewish people of Germany are existing was dSrcribed last night at the Second church Forum by Rev. John Haynes Holmes of New York. He painted Germany of today as country suf- lering from terrorism and oppres- sion. Yet, he said, the people have D fanatical adulation for their rul- pr, Adolph Hitler. He told of in- stances in Germany where Jewish people were constantly afraid to talk for fear of being overheard and having their remarks misinter- preted.
 Under the present program, Rev. Mfr. Holmes said, the Nazis will soon exterminate the church in Germany. They believe that the Germans are the greatest people in the world and are endowed with superlative quail ities. Furthermore, they feel that Christianity is of foreign origin.
 Hitler, according to the speaker, has captured the imagination of the young people and unless there is an economic disaster, he will be strong ler tomorrow than he is today.

 An official of the Bergoff agency said he had sent something more" than 1000 men to apartment hotels He was paying elevator operators with notable powers of self defense $9 a day, he said. The realty ad- visory board, numbering most of the regional real estate associations of the city in its members, sent ap- proximately 500 men to work. Off, ficers of the board refused to ce1l their men strike breakers. 'They are permanent employees" one said. "The men who quit yesterday and today are not on strike, as far as we are concerned they quit"
 Tickets Are Joyful
 Pickets reported gleefully that the union had registered 1,500 members with the Realty Advisory Board Employment Bureau and that many union men already had been em- ployed as strike breakers" Some of these buildings will find that their new help ain't so hot" a striking maid giggled. Residents and workers in the serviceless build- ings generally accepted their in- conveniences philosophically, some even with an appearance of being entertained. A gray-haired woman in fur, however, emerged purple faced and gasping from her hotel and without waiting to catch breath assailed a picket venomously. "It will kill Lafayette" she cried. "He can't do this. You ought all to be in jail" Lafayette threw his four pound weight Against the end of a leash and snapped at the 180- pound picket's legs.
 Downtown Expectant
 Downtown, where the business of Wall street and its surrounding &C., reages of millionaires is dependent upon the smooth running machin- cry of super civilization, the strike promised developments both hilari- ous and exciting. Bambrick refused to say what buildings would be next to feel the strike but underlings mentioned the 66-story tower at 60 Wall street, and the Woolworth building, 60 stories. AS crews in each building walked out they took care that their departure caused no damage in itself to their buildings. In at least one building where two persons were i'll of scarlet fever, heat and elevator service were maintained especially for them. Hospitals and homes for children and aged persons were exempted from the strike.

pension tax is $13l,00O. Payments were coming in fast today and it was believed that when the money orders, checks and cash in the un- opened mail were recorded the city would find that 1t had collected all but about $25,000 of the sum due to meet the demands of the state. This means that there will be over 5000 delinquents for the city to get after. In all there are almost 50,000 per- sons liable for the tax here.
 Devise Collecting Plan
 Tomorrow the collection officials will confer for the purpose of devis- ing a plan of collecting the amount still outstanding.
 In the past the city has collected the personal tax but this money went into the city treasury. Now the personal tax is extinct and the old age pension money goes to the state. The city must pay its assessment of $l31 ,000 to the state treasurer by April 1st. Therefore, in order to avoid deficit on the local books the city will have to get the money in so that 1t can meet the states de- mand a month hence.

 Contents of Telegram
 The telegram received by WATR read as follows: without waiving any rights I already have against you for criminal libel I hereby re- spectfully serve notice on you that I shall hold strictly accountable you and your company and all It's officers and directors for any further libel ous remarks made by Father Cough lin or any other person about me over your station directly or indi- rectly."-John J.

 Similar telegrams were reported to have been received by all the sta- tions which carry Father Coughlin's weekly programs. As far as could be learned, the broadcast was not can celled by any of the broadcasters. The program is carried each Sunday afternoon by an Independent net work of stations, the broadcast orig mating at Royal Oak, Michigan. Stations are compensated for the use of their time, as in other broad- casts.

 Hoffman will go before the legisla- -ture with 30 days left in which to prove his contention that Haupt- .mann at least had accomplices in the Kidnapping. Hauptmann is sentenced ito die in the week of March 30. His Lawyers have exhausted all the re- .-sources of the courts. It would be difficult for Hoffman to justify an- ..other reprieve to the public, even if Attorney General Wilentz did not -carry out an indicated intention to flight it in court as illegal. Haupt- man was obvious to all the political turmoil about him on the anniver- 6ary of the crime that shocked the world. He has staked his hope on the governor and he semed as stolid in the death house today as when he was on trial.
