Flora's Fury Leaves Trail of Death, Destruction

MIAMI. Fla. R Hurricane Flora, second most deadly storm ever to come out of the tropical Atlantic, sped toward the north east today on a course that could bring gale winds close to Bermuda Thursday.
 With at least $500 dead in it's wake in the Caribbean, the giant storm was racing to it's death in the cold waters of the North At lantic.
 A weather bureau advisory be- fore noon placed the storm about 160 miles north-northeast of Turks Island. Earlier today, she had thrashed a handful of thinly pop ulated Bahamian islands.
 Flora's center surrounded by winds up to 100 miles an hour, passed over the island of Maya guana before dawn, and then she picked up speed and swirled into the open Atlantic at Is miles an hour
 Flora left behind trail of dew astation and death.
 Officials at Haiti, hardest hit, estimated the dead at $500, but said the exact figure will never be known because the bodies can- not be found. Many parts of Cuba are still under water.

 Replying to a question on the taped television program by Jo seph Newman, New York Herald Tribune reporter, Mrs. Nhu said:
 The USI seems to be really working, helping feverishly that plot. How much they have helped I do not know The people are ab- solutely fidgety about that plot
 She was asked by William Had dad, also of the Herald Tribune, about Buddhist monks who ere m 6 d themselves in protest against the regime.
 Mrs. Nhu, who previously had been quoted as referring to such suicides as "barbecues," replied:
 Those who burned themselves are real BuddhistS, sincere Budd- hists, but unfortunately they trusted too much the people who melted them to make those sacrifices

Pine Bark Beetle Hits P01Uklnfnn

The Southern pine bark beetle,
perennially the pine trees worst
insect enemy in the South, is on
the rampage in Goochland and

wide damage in central Vir-

Forestry says.
The most practical control is
to cut the infested trees down
at once and sell them as pulp

Foresters are urging land
owners to do this now-if they
wait until spring. decay an d

spots Of dead and dying trees,
some spots as large as 20 to
Is acres with 1000 infested
trees.
Slocum estimated very rough

two counties. He noted that nu-
merous trees still green may be
loaded with the beetles before
showing the brown tops which
are the evidence visible from
above.
The bugs feed on the inner
bark. Getting them down on the
ground controls them by expos
ing them to greater tempera-
ture extremes and sunlight and
curtailing the conditions o r
breeding. he explained.

The. infested timber should be
got out OF the woods at once,
he said.
The division advises owners to
cut down a band Of green trees
so feet wide around all infested
areas at the same time the lat
ter are cut.
The beetle makes a hole about
blrdshot size when it enters the
bark, the tree eXudes pitch try
ing to spit him out, and this
about one-eighth inch long pro-
truding from the hole, Slocum
explained. The tubes are one of
the best indications the beetle is
