Disease Marks Black Spots
On Elm Leaves

Although tree leaves should be
thickest at this time of year,
disease known as black spot is
stripping many elms of their foil
age.
The disease peppers leaves with
small, shiny, black growths. The
spots are fruiting bodies contain
ing millions of spores-the seeds
of the fungus.
Spread of black spot was aided
this spring by the cold, wet
weather so favorable to develop
ment of the ailment. 1t attacks
all elms including American, Eng
lish and Chinese.
In early spring, the disease can
be controlled easily by spraying
trees with standard fungicides. At
this time of year, however, spray
ing is ineffective, according to
F. R. Lancaster, pathologist of
the Davey Tree Expert Co.
Best thing for the home owner
to do is collect all fallen elm
leaves and burn them to prevent
further spread of the infection,
Mr.. Lancaster advises. And calen-
dars should be marked for an
early spring spraying next year.
Repeated defoliation of elms by
black spot will cause serious in
jury to these valuable shade
trees. In their weakened condi-
ton, the trees will be more vul-
nerable to attack from other di-
seases and insect pests, particu-
larly borers.

BrowneN Fdvors Court Power
Over Crime Case WHetopping
But Believes He Should Keep Authority
To Use Against Traitors and Subversives

But. according to reliable in
formantS. he feels the Attorney
General should have the ex-
elusive right to give the FBI
permission to wiretap in cases
of treason, subversion and other
crimes directed against the
security of the Nation. He feels
the court procedure would be too
cumbersome and time-consum-
ing, and might also tip off
suspects to the fact that they
were under surveillance.
The Justice Department has
long argued that it is seriously
handicapped by present laws
banning introduction Of wiretap
evidence in Federal courts. AL
though the FBI has engaged in
overlapping for some years, it
has been unable to use the ma
terial against known subversives
because Of the legal ban. IN
der the proposed legislation,
wiretap evidence would be ad-
missible in the courts if proper
permission to tap the wires had
been granted in advance.
Committee members are agreed
that they must act soon on the
administrations request for for
NAL Wiretap authorization.

I'm not afraid Of them"
