Bitter Debate on Arms
The flow of Western arms to
Prime Minister Nehru's Indian
government remained a SUBJ
ject of bitter debate in the Ma
tional Assembly.
Sardar Bahadur Khan, 9
brother Of the President and
leader of the opposition, called
for PakiStan to drop out OF
SEATO and CENTO, adopt
neutrality and promote friend
ship with all nations-"Com-
munist or capitalist"
He accused the United
States, through its arms con-
tributions, of expanding the
frontier hostilities between In
dia and China into a full
fledged war for its own bene-
fit
An opposition rightist reli-
gious leader. Farid Ahmed

as "the friendliest nation OF

chiefs are w. Averell Hartman

THE FEDERAL SPOTLIGHT
Talk of Civilian Personnel Cuts
I In Defense Department Discounted

is a study now being made at
the direction of Defense Secre-
tary Mcnamara to determine
how operations can be stream
lined and made more effective.
This had led to reports that
sharp cuts will be made in
Defense Department civilian
employment in Washington.
However, Pentagon officials
close to the situation express
doubt that any significant
civilian employment reduction
will occur in Washington.
They say the main objective
of the study is to increase eff
ficiency and scope of opera
tons and that any civilian
cutbacks that would result
from that would be incidental.
They express the view that
Defense Department civilian
employment in the Washing
ton area will remain about
the same.

or more ago, the towns Of large
areas Of the United States
lined their streets with the
noble elm tree. Now the beauty
they hopefully created is
threatened with complete de-
struction as disease sweeps
through the elms, carried by a
beetle that would have only
limited chance to build up large
populations and to spread from
tree to tree If the elmS were
only occasional trees in a richly
diversified planting.
Invasion q Problem
Another factor in the mod
ern insect problem is one that
must be viewed against a back
ground of geologic and human
history: The spreading of
thousands Of different kinds of
organisms from their native
homes to invade new terrific
ries. This worldwide migration
has been studied and graphi-
cally described by the British
ecologist. Charles Elton, in his
recent book, THE Geology of
Invasions." These invasionS,
both the naturally occurring
and those dependent on human
assistance, are likely to con-
tinue indefinitely.
Quarantine and massive,
chemical campaigns are only
extremely expensive ways of
buying time We are faced, &C.
cording to DR.. Elton, with a
life-and- death need not just to
find new chronological means
of suppresSing this plant or
that animal; instead we need
the basic knowledge of animal
populations and their relations
to their surroundings that will
promote an even balance and
dampen down the explosive

Success Is Limited

It Is a sobering fact, however
as we shall presently see, that
the method of massive chemi-
cal control has had only lin
tied success, and also threatens
to worsen the very conditions
it is intended to curb.
Under primitive agricultural
conditions the farmer had few
insect problems. These arose
with the intenSification of ag-
riculture-the devotion of i'm
mense acreages to a single crop
Such a system set the stage foI
explosive increases in specific
insect populations.
Single-crop farming does not
take advantage of the princi-
piles by which nature works; il
is agriculture as an engineer
might conceive it to be. Nature
has introduced great variety
into the landscape. but man
has displayed a passion for
simplifying it. Thus he undoeS
the built-in checks and ball
ances by which nature holds
the species within bounds. One
important natural check is a
limit on the amount of suitable
habitat for each species. OBJ
viously then. an insect that
lives on wheat can build up
its population to much higher
levels on a farm devoted to
wheat than on one in which
wheat is intermingled with
other crops to which the insect
is not adapted.
The same thing happens in
other situations. A generation

especially under conditions
where sanitation is poor, as in
time Of natural disaster or war
or in situations Of extreme pow
erty and deprivation. Then con-
troll Of some sort becomes nee
esSary.
