NOT TO ENFORCE CLEANUP WORK Frank N. Wallace, slate entomologist in charge of corn borer control work in Indiana, gave out the statement Saturday from his office in Auburn that no effort will be made this year to enforce the cleanup work in the 134 infested townships in 15 counin Indiana. The decision of Mr. Wallace to abandon the cleanup work this year was made after an unsuccesful effort on the part of men in several states to secure an appropriation from the federal congress with which to pay farmers for their cleanup work. Last year Indiana farmers in six, counties were paid about $350,000 for their cleanup work. Mr. Wallace's statement regarding the abandoning of the cleanup work this year is as follows: "A year ago at the urgency of the federal government, department of agriculture, the Indiana general assembly considered protective measures against the spread of the European corn borer in the state. After a series of conferences the present law was passed by the state legislature with the approval of the United States department of agriculture. The purpose of this law was to furnish the federal government with an arm to secure the cooperation of the states and the farmers. “Our state appropriations for this work were made with the approval of the federal government and with the understanding cn our part at least that federal aid would continue. “'Since the statement was given out at Washington the first of the year that there would be no compensation to farmers for cleanup work this spring a great deal of confusion has resulted in the infested area, especiallysince the United States department added as a convenient, although not very plausible explanation, the broad hint that the corn borer after all may not be the serious menace which for the purpose of better enfonjement they had previously painted it to be. “The state division of entomology, on the contrary, still believes the European corn borer the most serious insect pest that has ever threatened our corn crop, and no evidence was brought out at the agricultural com-

mittee hearing at Washington cn March 26 27 and 28 that would minimize the danger of this destructive pest, yet in the face of this the department of agriculture has elected to disrupt an agreement of its own making. "Under these circumstances, especially because of the discontinuing of federal financial aid, Indiana has not suffeient funds to carry on this work successfully by itself. Such work can only be done through the closest cooperation of all the states and the federal agencies. Under prevailing conditions we should not ask the farmer to make this fight alone, except as a strictly protective measure to himself. “In the meantime and until the federal government makes up its mind how to do and how to pay for the cleanup work, it would be folly on the part of the division of entomology,, deany cleanup work ’in Indiana on tho partment of conservation, to attempt old basis. To carry on complete inspection work our own funds would not be sufficient. We do not feel that we are justified in using money available unless the work can be carried on to successful completion and unless expected results justify certain expenditures. “Since the United States department of agriculture has turned its back on the corn borer fight, there is nothing left far the state division of entomology, department of conversa-
