Battle Against European Pine Moth Waged in Northwest
Portland A battle is being
waged in Oregon and Wash
ington to stem the invasion
of a pest which foresters fear
could be as destructive and
costly as the well known
spruce budworm.
So far, the new pest has not
been found in native forests
of the West only in land
scape plantings and nursery
stock and it is hoped that
eradication can be accomplish
ed before such infestation oc
curs.
the pest causing concern
throughout the heavily tim
bered Northwest is the Euro
pean pine shoot moth.
The states of Oregon and
Washington with members of
the Northwest Pest Control
Council are engaged in the
fight to control and eradicate
the pine moth. The council
is made up of representatives

President Urges Use of
Rule of Law for Settling
Disputes Between Nations
Washington (tll'll - President
Eisenhower, urging nations to
adopt the rule of law to settle
international disputes, Mon
day urged repeal of a U. S.
reservation restricting the jur
isdiction of the World Court.
The President told the
American Bar association the
reservation was a self-judging
clause whose repeal "can
not possibly hurt us."
Known as the Connally
amendment, the reservation
allows this country to determ
ine what disputes are domes
tic matters and therefore not
subject to settlement in the
international court.
Should Be Binding
Eisenhower, who has fav
ored repeal of the reservation
for some time, told an over
flow crowd of more than 2,000
ABA members and their
wives that the rule of law
among nations should be as
binding as it is upon individ
uals in any country
He conceded the World
Court docs not have the kind
of enforcement powers avail
able to Individual nations,
But he said, "there is a mighty
force behind It-world opin
ion." Earlier, Sen. Harry F. Byrd
told the attorneys the Su
preme Court's "usurpation of
power . . . has reached a
peak" under Chief Justice
Earl Warren.
'Subverting Trends'
The Influential Virginia
Democrat said this was one
of three "subverting trends"
menacing the U. S. govern
ment. He listed the others as
"increasing federal palcmnl
ism" and "Increasing arro
gance of labor leaders in their
influence over federal author
ities." Byrd launched his attack on
the . supreme Court a few
hours after Warren opened
the bar association's 83rd an
nual meeting. Byrd, chair
man of the Senate Finance
committee and a leader of the
southern congressional bloc,
was given the association's
distinguished service award.

Continual Building Boom In
New York Makes Role of
Moving Man Very Important
By HENRY J. BECHTOLD
UPI Financial Editor
New York-IUPII - The com
mercial building boom that is
continually changing the face
of this city of
s k y s crapers
has increased
the i m p o r
tance of the
the role of the
moving man.
M o v i n g a
giant corpora
tion from one
b u i ldlng, in
Henry Bechtoid many cases
from a number of buildings,
to its new home requires
plenty of planning, practice
and patience, with the em
phasis on patience, according
to officials of the Union Car
bide Corp., which now is en
gaged in the biggest corporate
office moving job in New
York's history.
Union Carbide, working to
gether with Neptune World-
Wide Moving, is moving some
5.5 million pounds of furni
ture and equipment to the
giant chemical firm's new
world headquarters on Park
ave. here.
When completed lale this
year this task force opera
tion will have taken 12
months to complete. Planning
on this huge job began in De
cember, 1959, with the first
fleet of vans reaching the
loading docks of die new 52-
slory skyscraper this past
March.
Since Urn, day by day,
furniture and equipment has
been rolling in from 11 out-of-town
locutions in as many
120 vans a week.
But this long distance haul
ing is only the forerunner of
(ho local moving which pres
ently has Union Carbide shut
tling its office equipment
from 14 scattered New York
office buildings,
, This local moving to con-
solidale all operating divisions
at 270 Park ave. usually is a
weekend task since moving
files, cabinets and typewrit
ers has to Immediately pre
cede the particular group of
employees who move into the
building the following Mon
day mornirig. , This phase of
the operalion requires up lo
275 men, 400 dollies and eight
vans.
Through osmosis the new
building is being occupied by
approximately 4,000 Union
Carbide personnel who will
eventually fill most of its 52
floors.
When completed, the trans
fer will have included 12,000
chairy, 3,800 desks, 6,400
files, 2,000 sheets of masonite
to spare the dynel carpeting
from damage while moving
the furniture.
Color Coding
Chartering Ihc flow of fur
niture is quite a job. Each
piece is coded and then slot
led for its respective space on
each floor of the stainless
steel and glass structure.
A method of color coding
divides each floor inlo six
separate areas and every
work, desk and file location
is carefully charted. Each car
ton and piece of equipment
has to be pasted with a tag
which bears a specific floor
color code, area color code,
location number and even
file drawer number if neces
sary.
To round out the transition
to modernism, the new Un-
iuii mroicie Dunaing nas "the
most modern telephone instal
lation in the world," accord
ing to a company spokesman
The structure is the first
commercial office building in
mis city lo completely utilize
the new telephone procedure
ot direct inward dialings DID.
This system allows outside
callers to dial company ex
tensions directly, by-passing
the central switchboard. It is
estimated that DID will save
about 28 seconds on each in
coming call.
Another Phone Feature
Closely allied with this new
dialing system is another tele
phone feature called "se
quence numbering." Under
this procedure many lines are
arranged in numerical order
so that when a number called
is busy, the equipment auto
matically rings the higher
number, which most likely
would be that of the person's
secretary or assistant.
Another aspect of Union
Carbide's new look in tele
phone communications is the
building's "LL 1-2345" ex
change,, which is one of the
first in Manhattan to switch
from the usual first two let
ters of such names as Mur
ray Hill or Plaza.
The "LL" prefix does not
stand for anything, and Un
ion Carbide officials expect
that all New York exchanges
eventually will change to this
type of identification or to all
numeral identification.

THE 0U CROW DtST. CO., FRANKFORT, KY, KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY, 86 PROOF
from state and federal agen
cies and private organizations.
"On-the-ground" organiza
tions such as garden clubs and
nurserymen's groups are do
ing an excellent job in sur
veying for detection of the in
sect, a forest service official
said.
Primary responsibility for
the detection survey program
rests with the Oregon state
board of forestry and the
Washington state department
of natural resources. Dozens
of other agencies, groups and
firms are cooperating. The
program involves showing
slides and specimens and dis
tribution of brochures at meet
ings of garden clubs, civic
groups, and elsewhere.
The pine shoot moth has
been in the eastern United
States since 1914 and has
been reported in British Co
lumbia on several occasions
since 1927. However, the moth
was not detected in the wes
tern United States until 1959.
It was found in landscape
plantings and some nursery
stock in the Seattle area.
Later it was found in one
nursery and a landscape plant
ing at Spokane on stock
brought from Seattle.
Action has been started on
quarantine measures to pre
vent movement of pines into
this part of the country from
any known place of infesta
tion. After completion of sur
veys this fall, the state of
Washington will start a pro
gram to eradicate the mom
in the Spokane area and a
control program with the
hope of eradication in the Se
attle area.
The moth has not yet been
found in Oregon, and it is
hoped the current surveys will
not reveal infestation. Coop
erative survey reports will be
collected by the Washington
department of natural re
sources and Oregon state
board of forestry up to Sept.
15. The data will then be
summarized and included in
a comprehensive report to the
Northwest Pest Action Coun
cil at its annual fall meeting
in October.
The shoot moth is primarily
a pest of young, small trees
such as those used in home
and commercial landscape.
Mugho, red and Scotch pines
are attacked most severey.
Pondrosa pin has ben at
tacked elsewhere in the Unit
ed States but little is known
about its susceptibility to at
tack and ability to withstand
injury in its native environ
ment. Foresters are fearful
the moth may infest our na
tive pine forests and do un
told damage.
