NEW HAVEN, Conn., April 29 (#)— INTO U. 5. HIDDEN Officials, Tightening Battle Lines, Unable to Determine Methed of Entry. By the Associated Press. The Department of Agriculture knows that the Mediterranean fruit fly origi- pated on the North Coast of Africa, but how it got into Florida probably will remain a matter of conjecture forever. The pest, officials say, may have come in at some port in an uninspected fruit. Port authorities make every effort to keep fruit out, but find that a wide- spread human failing is to “get by” inspectors with some form of contra- band, even though it is only an orange. The fly has been in the Bahamas for years. Plans for Fight Formed. Another theory is that it may have arrived in comfort in straw wrapped around a bottle of liquor smuggled in | from the islands off the Florida coast. ‘The fact that the fly made its first ap- pearance a great distance from the coast gives considerable weight to such a conjecture in the minds of department officials. There is also an opinion that it may have slipped past inspectors in the mails or come in on some host vegetable which failed to get a proper inspection. Department officials are completing plans for the fight against the fly’s spread and studying methods for its eradication. At present all fruit in the infested area is being buried under a thick coating of quick lime. Natural sinkholes in the terrain around Orlando furnish excellent graves for the con- demned fruit. Ground Must be Heated. Experts also are working on ma- chinery which will be needed to heat the ground under the infested groves, a step made necessary by the fact that the fly in one stage of its development falls from the orange to the ground, and is sometimes buried as deep as 2 or 3 inches. This is one of the major prob- lems of the eradication program. The deep concern caused by the ap- pearance of the pest takes secondary place only to the fear that it may spread. With the Georgia and North Carolina peach crops coming into form Jjust to the north of the infested area, a spread in that direction would cause untold damage and make the problem of eradication even greater. The fly also attacks cotton where the bolls have | By the Associated Press. Disarmament went into the very forefront of international affairs last S. Gibson, American delegate, designed to bring it out of the stagnation and stalemate in which many fruitless con- ferences have left it. Mr. Gibson’s speech, understood to express President Hoover's views on disarmament and his desire for an early settlement, sent echoes rolling through every important capital of the world all vezk long. The first suggestion for settling the cruiser prob- lem by reducing warship tonnage by categories of ships, following closely a previous French plan. This was in- tended to solve the difficulties of the United States and great Britain over cruiser strength. Approved by Britain. Approval of the American suggestions, especially tion and not mere limitation of arma- ments, came wholeheartedly from such English political leaders as Premier Baldwin, Sir Austen Chamberlain and Lord Cushendun. But Italian desire for naval parity with Frence was seen on closer examination to present diffi- cultfes. Of hardly less importance was Mr. Gibson's agreement to withdraw Amer- ica’s previous strong objections to ex- cluding trained reserves from army ef- fectives. ‘The announcement was re- celved with special delight by France. with warm approval by British Con- servative statesmen, but with much dis- appointment by Germany. Reparations Problem Unsolved. The reparations conference in Paris seemingly came no nearer solution of the problem of Germany which the first Dawes committee had left incom- plete. But there were hopes that Dr. Schacht, chief German delegate and president of the Reichsbank, might bring back new suggestions or offers from Berlin, which he visited for a con- ference with the Reichsbank directorate. Action of the Reichsbank in raising its discount rate to 7.5 per cent cre- ated bad feeling, and there were hints that the bank’s gold reserves were dangerously depleted.
