The W ashington Merry -Go Round
By DREW PEARSON (Major Robert 8. Allen on active duty


 WASHING GTON A German plane that flies at the terrific speed of six miles minute and fires shells at the rate of 10 per second was responsible for knock ing 26 U. s. Flying Fortresses out of the air over Kiel and Bremen on unlucky June 13..
 This is the latest type of Messer- schmitt fighter, known as the l09 G-2. Air Forces experts admit it is hot stuff," and that it is causing casualties when big formations Of Flying Fortresses penetrate Ger man skies without fighter protee- tion.
 The German fighters are not better than the American Light nings or Thunderbolts, or tn a n British Spitfires, but American and British fighters can't be there to carry out the comparison. When U. s. bombers make their daylight raids on the Continent, they pene- trate farther than fighter planes, with limited range, can fly
 Thus the bombers must depend on their own guns and their own armor. They fly at 225 to 250 miles an hour, compared with $50 to 39o made by the German fighters.
 The Nazi gun which is doing most of the damage is 20 nm cannon which fires at the rate of TOO shells per minute. (But it can fire for only a few seconds at a

 Both the Messerschmitt and the Focke- -Wulf fighters are reported to have been improved this spring over the models which gave U. s. airmen plenty of trouble last fall.

emerged from his vaporization
tent today TO lash out once again
at John l.. Lewis. chief OF the

In a formal statement. Thomas,
whose bull-like voice has been
muted TO a mere whisper, described
newspaper reports that the JAW
executive board had considered
disaffiliatihg with the Go at a
recent meeting in California, as
'phony as their source.
ut Il just another attempt Of
John l.. Lewis TO further divide

resulting chaos" Thomas said.
NO SUCH VOTE, HE SAYS
mo such vote was taken by
the board of the JAW. No such
action Is contemplated"
To bear out Thomas, the board
voted unanimously yesterday to
condemn the reports as vicious
lies and added that il had never
discussed such a proposal and was
not considering doing so.

Lack of Gas for Spraying Trees
Curtoi|s War on CoterpiIIors
One Of Four Machines to Be Operated,
Mosquito Control Program Continues

Washington's caterpillars have
been given a new lease on life by
the shortage of gasoline.
District officials say that the city's
four big tree e-spraying machines have
been immobilized so far this season,
but ways nave been found to put one
of the four machines into service.
District officials draw distinc-
ton, however, between a caterpillar
and a mosquito, since the latter is
disease carrier as well as a
nuisance. AS result the mosquito
control program will 60 on, though
it requires both gasoline for city
trucks and fuel oil to be spread in
catch basins and other places where
mosquitoes breed.
If many public spaces take on an
unkempt appearance through lack
of cutting of weeds and grass, this,
too, is blamed on the gas shortage
plus some shortage of manpower.
Engineer Commissioner Charles
w. Kutz, after a conference with
Clifford Lanham, superintendent of
trees and parkings, said "neces-
sary" operation of District gov
ernment vehicles would continue,
but that in view of the necessity
Of reducing gas usage by 40 per
cent many operations would have
to be curtailed.
Mr.. Lanham revealed he had re-
ceived many protests that cater
pillars were infesting the shade
trees, getting so thick in some areas
that the pests were crawling into
their houses.

this alone would not kill the tree,
though it would If repeated season
after season. The plan is to make
a survey of theuworst areas and to
start one spraying machine operat-
ing this week, working on one Sec
ton at time.
Indicating the extent of the prob
lem, however, Mr.. Lanham explained
that the gasoline allotment for his
division is 900 gallons a month
with 10000 trees along the park
ings, or about 1900 miles of spaced
trees.
For the mosquito control work,
officials say $50 gallons of gasoline
would be needed each month for the
operation of five Sewer Department
trucks, plus large quantities of No.
2 fuel oil to spread in breeding
places. To make such gas and oil
available for mosquito control would
have made deep cut in the already
reduced allotments for the Sewer
Division. To avoid this, Assistant
Engineer Commissioner Joseph D.
Arthur, jr., who is serving as Dis
trict mileage administrator, pro-
posed cuts in other vehicle opera
tions and reapportionment of fuel
allotments among divisions.

large parties are necessary, and in
