Dutch Elm Disease
Takes Toll Of III
More Trees in D. T..

Washington lost 272 American
elm trees this year from Dutch
elm disease. it was reported yes
terday.
This years toll was 40 per cent
less than the 40 cases found by
District and National Capital
Parks scouts in the first city-wide
search last year, according to fig
ures given Highway Director j. N.
Robertson and Parks Supt. Ed
ward j. Kelly.
City and parks officials hope
that check in the spread Of the
disease is in sight.
May Be Earlier Victims.
In explaining the figures, Mr..
Kelly noted that some of the trees
found last year may have been
standing for several years and
could not be regarded as a single
years count.
The disease has almost COM
pletely wiped out the ornamental
elms along urban streets in New
Jersey and other Middle Atlantic
Estates.
The first case was found in the
District near the Lincoln Memo
rial five years ago. In July, 1851
after more than 100 infected trees
were located during the previous
year, the Highway Department
Joined with the Parks Office in q
Joint control program.
Infected Trees Removed.
During the last two years,
scouting crews from both offices
have combed the city for evidence
lof the disease.
Samples from elms showing
definite symptoms are turned over
to the Plant Pathology Labora-
tory of National Capital Parks.
On confirmation Of the disease by
culture diagnosis, instructions 60
out for removal and burning of
the infected trees.
Spraying of all elms in critical
areas with a IL per cent DOT
solution to destroy the elm bark
beetle, which transmits the dis
ease, is the other principal con-
troll method.
Officials still are vitality con-
cerned over its threat to Wash
lington's elms. They believe scout
ling and removal of infected trees
must be continued for many years
on private, as we'll as public, prop
critics.

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
BIRTHPLACE, Va.-Did you ever
give much thought to the shoes
YOU wear Perhaps not, like so
many other things, you merely
take them for granted as a neces-
sary part Of your wearing apparel.
You probably paid six, eight, ten
or even twenty dollars, and con-
sidering prices as they are today,
that's a lot more than you paid
for shoes five or ten years ago.
However, if it hadn't been for mass
production-assembly line techni-
ques, used in their manufacture
and the use of modern distribu-
ton and advertising, the cost OF
shoes would be almost p%rohibitive.
The man responsible for low cost
production Of shoes was a Negro
Jan E. Matzeliger, who was born
(1852) in Dutch Guiana, and
worked in shoe factories in Phila-
delphia and Lynn, Mass.
MatzeIiger died in 1889 at the
age Of 81, but not before he in
vented a lasting machine which
adjusted the shoe, arranged the
leather over the sole, and drove
in the nails. The machine took the
drudgery out Of shoe making, de-
creased the cost of shoes by so
per cent, diminished working hours
and improved laboring conditions.
Matzeliger's untimely death de-
prived him Of a fortune. His pa
tent was purchased by Sydney w.
Winslow, ST., who established the
United Shoe Machinery company,
a multi-million dollar corporation
employing, today, over 10000
workers with factories throughout
the world. 1t was a Negroes inven-
tive genius that made all this pos
sible. Stock in this company, as
listed on the New York Curb Ex-
change, sells for around S44 a
share.
Matzeliger's contribution to the
American way Of life, the capital
list system, and free enterprise, is
one of the thousands Of examples
which may be cited to conclusively
prove that Negroes living in a
democracy have contributed, and
will continue to contribute their
brains, their skills, their ingenu-
ity to a higher civilization.
Although the patent office does
not keep records of the race of
applicants, a few of the better

inventions by Negroes are more
potent manifestations of the part

racy that any other arguments
that may be advanced. They prove
one great lesson, the whole worlc

creative, inventive genius of man
regardless of race, color, creed
previous condition., or nationa
origin, can and will produce goods
and services that will benefit al
mankind.

Expressing the unparalleled con-
Germ of the half million members
of the Ohio CLIO at "these malig-

"strike at the very heart of our

Of our Constitution and Bill of
