Says Wheat Aphid
Has Appeared

Western wheat aphid, a pest
that created a problem last
year in Montana's winter wheat
areas, has appeared again this
year in BroadWater county and
probably will be present in
other parts of the state where
winter wheat is grown, warns
j. P. Corkins, assistant state
entomologist at Montana State
college.
The best way to control this
pest, Corkins says, is to keep
summer fallow free of volun-
teer wheat, barley and grasses
from now until the middle of
August.
Western wheat aphid, he ex-
plains, has a generation of
winged adults which fly to
volunteer wheat in fallow land
where a colony is established.
The colony persists until the
new crop is planted in the fall
after which the pest overwint-
erS to appear the following
spring and cause crop damage.

Stipulated that the VA was to
make these direct loans in those

regular G.. T. loans were not
available from private lenders.
The law required the VA to

TOKYO, Sept. 14.-To what ex-
tent will a Japanese army imi-
tate the United States Army?
This question worries those in
terested in rearming Japan as the
only way to return a balance of
power to Asia.
While it is agreed that we must
aid a new japanese army with
heavy materiel, and that the force
would eventually be integrated
into the American Asiatic COM
mand, many persons believe it
would be wrong to try to force
the Japanese to follow our
methods to the letter.
All remember that in the last
war the individual Japanese SOL
dier fought brilliantly. He was
defeated primarily because he
lacked heavy gear.
Our military advisory missions
have a wretched record in the
Orient:
The American-advised Chinese
Nationalist army collapsed under
Communist pressure.
The American-adviSed South
Korean army exhibited the punch
ing power of a 98-year -old
minnow.

roots of tomorrow's imperial
army fear we might be making
similar errors.
Frankly, outside of logistic and
technical matters I can't see why
the japanese need any military
advice from us on the infantry
level even though Americans now
assigned to the job are the finest
type of combat veterans.
The Japanese proved in the last
war they are naturals for fight

tain climbing and jungle creeping
There is no question but that

platoons going to training fields

gasoline, when they should have
been hiking. And saw field

based his dismissal of Gen. Mac.

Mr.. Acheson authorized Press
Officer Michael j. McDermott to

The question of Mr.. Acheson's
position arose most recently out
of an inquiry put to Gen. Mac

Friday by Senator Fulbright,
Democrat, of Arkansas. Senator
Fulbright asked Gen. Macarthur
whether he woud be surprised to
learn that Mr.. Acheson "in fact
opposed your recall vigorously in
discussions at the highest level"
This was widely interpreted to
mean that Senator Fulbright had
information that Mr.. Acheson had
been against the Presidents ac-
tion.
