new for the cookie jar.

"DDT'' KILLS MANY PESTS BUT NEW DUST NOT READY FOR GARDEN; KILLS MANY BENEFICIAL BUGS TOO

grape berry moth, grasshoppers, imported cabbage worm, oriental fruit moth, potato leafhopper, sil- verfsh, and the following stored pro duct pests = cadelle, confused flour beetle, granary weevil, Indian-meal moth. lesser grain borer, red flour beetle, rice Weevil, and saw-toothd grain beetle. In tests carried on thus far DOT insecticides have shown relativesly little or no effect against these IA common pests; boil weevll, California red scale, cattle grubs, all types of aphids, cotton leaf worm, Florida red scale, Mexican bean beetle, orchard mites, parla- toria scale, plum curculio, red spider and sugarcane borer.
 Pollinating Insects Hit, too
 Unhappily DOT insecticides have been found to kill honeybees and other pollinating insects on which many fruit and seed crops depend for fertilization. Parasites and pre- dators which help to hold in check many harmful pests are also des- troyed. A serious problem is how to use DOT to kill injurious pests with out too great decimation of insects beneficial to man.
 The war situation makes inadvis- able any prediction regarding avail ability of DOT for. civilian use. Even if supplies were available, DOT in- sectcides could not be generally recommended at this time.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-04-25

Many wild claims have been made for this chemical and it is natural for farmers, gardeners and house. wives to want to use DOT now Un- fortunately some of these claims are untrue.
 Enemy Of 90 Pests
 DOT insecticides were found ex- perimentally to be definitely more effective than those currently used for control of some 30 pests that attack field crops, man, livestock and trees. Against 19 other insects DOT in these tests were about equal to those ordinarily used. Against IA important destructive pests, in- cluding the boil weevil, they were found to have litle or no effect.
 The 30 pests against which ex- periments show DOT to be especial ly toxic include the codling moth, cabbage looper, cotton hea-hopper, eastern tent cateripllar, elm bark beetle, green-striped maple worm, gypsy moth, horn flies on cattle, Japanese beetle, Lygus and four other sucking bugs, pine sawflies, spruce bud-worm, mosquitoes, bed- bugs, three kinds of lice on man, and house-flies and fleas in build ings.
 Experiments have shown that DOT insecticides are about equal to other materials in effectiveness against these 18 pests: corn ear worm, dianondback moth, Euro pean corn borer, cockroaches,

basket of flowers to the bedside, and the touch of originality will add greatly to the appreciation with which the gift will be received.
 Should you attempt to make one of these flower-bringing storks, try to make it look like a real stork. No matter how hard you try. the result will probably be as goofy as mine. When the one in the picture above got entirely out of hand, I added the ostrich feathers and top knot to make him completely fanci- full.
 The body, neck and head are formed Of paper wrapped with wire for stiffcling, while the legs and feet are of stiff wire. Starting at the head, wrap the whole bird with ribbon - pink for girl, blue for boy-catching it here and there with a stitch for security. Then decorate to suit your fancy.
 The flower basket should be painted blue or pink to match the bird, while the flowers should be pastel in tone and harmonious in colorings. Attach one of MT. Stork's legs to the basket with a ribbcl, place flower in his bill and he'll be ready to fly off to bear your good wishes.

 The table centerpiece, shown above at right, is literally shower in itself, for real raindrops fall squares of gauge u,der the rim of the frilly parasol.
 The mechanics Of the arrange ment consist only Of decorating the frame of dolls parasol with white net, and anchoring it's handle in a blob of modelling clay in the bowl which I have filled with bouvardia, white gladioli and French marigolds. Other white flowers which will be in seaso'l later on will be equally attractive The flower stems are held under water by two metal flower holders in the bottom of the bowl.
 Pinned on the top of the parasol are tiny noSegayS of three sweet heart roses tied with loops of rib- bon. When arranging these nose gays. plan to have one for each guest, and pass them out at the ond of the luncheon.
 If fresh ice cubes are attached to the parasol frame just as the decoration goes on the table, the rain will continue to fall for quite a long time.

WOmen's Views Will Be Aired At Conference
By ETHEL BOGARDUS NEA CorresnOndent

San Francisco, April 25 - With the blessing of the State Depart ment and due process of protocol, women are going to have their day at the United Nations Conference. They probably can't crash the sac- red purlieus of the War Memorial Opera House, where sessions are be- ing held. but they are all set to operate outside the ring of secur- ity."
 A United Women's Conference" Is tentatively set for May 5. Dele gates themselves are not apt to be speakers, since every word they ut ter in public meeting must be pass ed by Washington, The Conference will be over before the speeches could te okayed." frankly admit Charles Child and Louis Lancaster. advance representatives of the State De- partment
 That, however, does not perclude the possibility of largish gather ing in smalliSh hall where com- mentators may lead discussions and hold feminine opinion. A dozen or ganizations of women are on the line as both sponsors and under writers.
 Moving spirit of the United Wo- mems Conference is, appropriately enough, Miss Catherine Sibley, former associate of the late impress sario Max Reinhardt. Miss Sibley is former Hollywood actress. An early eXperimenter in television, she is now a radio publicist and round- ed up the women to organize their United Conference.
 The Leagu of Women Voters is the only other group so far to bask in the Conference spotlight. The San Francisco center of the league has won assent from the only U. s. woman delegate, Dean Virginia Gildersleeve of Barnard College, to attend a luncheon in her honor. The invitation was ex- tended by her old friend, former Dean Lucy Ward Stebbins of the University of California. Miss Gildersleeve accepted on condi- tion that other educational and civic organizations share in the event, so the ladies are rallying to that one, too.
 The luncheon is planned for the Mark Hopkins Hotel, center of State Department activiteis at the Con- ference, and the date awaits the pleasure of the Conference.

BEAUTIES HINTS
 GOSSiping Adds Years To Age
BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

Best arguments I've heard to date against the unlovely habit of gos- siping came from a makeup man who says 1t etches on a face lines which are aging. Hollywood's Wally Westmorc marshals this evidence to prove his point:
 l. Vicious remarks are usually accompanied by eye-narrowing squints, which if allowed to become habitual will leave deepseated lines around the eyes.
 2. Deraogatory remarks, he says, usually drag down the muscles of the mouth and eventually leave their unpleasant stamp at the corners.
 3. Sarcasm brings every unbe- coming expression into play, which after time are indelibly stamped on a countenance.
 "Over period of time," says Westmore, "these lines will become so set, everybody who meets gos- sip will be aware immediately of her habit.

 The announcement that "WeIl have to eat dinner out. as the butcher forgot to send the roast. !" will probably just seud a returned serviceman to the pantry and back with the challenge: Why you've got enough stuff out there to feed an army"

 The name of Wilbur c. White head will always live in bridge his- tory. In the early days of auction bridge, Work and Whitehead were synonymous.
 One of WhiteheadS's chief con- tributionS to modern contract was his theory of quick tricks. He set down a rule that an ace was one quick trick, and guarded king a half trick. His rule then stated that the probable tricks in any hand were roughly double the number of quick tricks.
 Today's hand is one of the last hands played by him before he sailed for vacation in Europe from which he never returned, dying aboard ship in the summer of 1881.
 Of course modern bidding on this hand would be different, but White head got quite kick out of getting a top score on it when the opening diamond lead gave him the chance to make six odd.

Ezio Pima, Metropolitan Opera
basso, brought much of his operatic
style to the presentation Of a re-
cital program yesterday in Consti-
tuition Hall under the Dorsey au-
spices. Renowned for his perform
ances here and abroad, he is now
adding to his fame by song recitals
that permit his splendid voice to
be heard from every angle of it's
versatility. The popularity which
he has gained in this field was
evident from the size of the audi
ence and the enthusiastic reception
of everything he sang. He thought
fully gave several request numbers
as encores and also saw that his
excellent accompanist. Gibner
King, shared in his acclaim.
From nature and by training,
Mr.. Pinza's voice is, without doubt,
one of the finest before the public
today. Its great vitality and un-
limited power are assets that he
uses judiciously, maintaining
throughout a wide range an equally
resonant, melodious quality. In
softer effects, it acquires not only
more warmth but a poignant ex-
pressiveness that touches the SEN
sibilities. There is hardly a singer
today who has such a thoroughly
rounded out talent.
Flow of Sound "Arresting."
Yesterday, however, not all of
this was drawn on except at in
tervalS. 1t seemed as if the quality
and style so essential to opera
struggled for pre- eminence and its
use was often at variance with
the gentle thought of the song
But when. Mr.. Pima resorted to
the soft, veiled quality that he
so expertly the lovely
flow of sound was arresting.
