Greater Than Average Infestation of Pear Psylla Reported Here There is greater than aver age infestation of pear psylla in Jackson county this year, ac cording to C. B. Cordy, county horticulture agent. Pear psylla are insects which suck juices from leaves of pear trees and secrete a fluid called honeydew. If honeydew drops on the fruit, marking of pears remits. To control the insects. Cordy said a more thorough job of spraying is required than has been done this year. He noted that the recommended spray pro gram of parathion, malathion and EPN is effective if spraying is thorough, especially on the insides and tops of trees. In creased dosages of the spray ma terial will not result in better control, he pointed out, since control depends on thorough coverages. Koneydew Found If honeydew is found in or chards it means pear psylla are present. Growers should exam- Eisenhower Let Cat Out of Bag on Plan For Disarmament London . (IP Authoritative sources here said today Presi dent Eisenhower let a Western disarmament cat out of the bag in his press conference remarks on the suspension of nuclear weapons tests. The United States, according to the sources, is prepared to suspend nuclear tests tempo rarily but has not yet won complete approval from its allies on the details of the proposition. Willingness Indicated Eisenhower, at the news con ference Wednesday, indicated the United States is willing to suspend the tests without a prior ban on the production of fis sionable materials for nuclear weapons. Such a prohibition had been one of the keystones of Western disarmament policy. U.S. disarmament delegate Obituaries RICHARD T.

About three persons in every 100 in the United States own some forest land. - Hoi I ine leaves in the tops and cen ters of trees to determine whether or not there are live psylla. If live pcylla are found, spraying is necessary. He empha sized importance of driving the spray rig slowly (about l!j miles per hour), spraying when j there is not wind and repeating j the operations if the psylla re main after the first spray appli- i cation. I Dr. L. G. Centner, horticul turist at the Southern Oregon branch experiment station, has been making a psylla count and found good clean-up with three pounds parathion, three pounds EPN or six pounds malathion, in 150 or more gallons per acre. Cordy said the problem of psylla has been particularly bad in Washington this year and last year. While the problem is not "disasterous" here, he said there is enough pear psylla in some orchards to cause fruit cullage. If infestations increase cullagae will be severe. Harold E. Slassen referred to the President's press conference when he spoke at the London disarmament conference Thurs day. He quoted Eisenhower's statement that the latest Soviet disarament proposal, which in cluded a call for immediate sus pension of nuclear tests, are a hopeful sign. Stassen added the United States is now ready to include some controls on nuclear tests in a "first step"' disarmament agreement. But he did not indi cate whether he had suspension in mind. Switch in Policy Seen Authoritative circles here be lieved there has been a switch in the basic U.S. policy on sus pension of nuclear tests but that Eisenhower had revealed it pre maturely. It would be premature because Western consultations on disarmament policy here still had not cleared up their differ ences. The conference was adjourn ed after Thursday s session to permit French delegate Jules Moch to return to Paris on gov ernment business. The talks resume Tuesday and Stassen requested sessions be held daily to permit him to pre sent the new U.S. disarmament plan.
