New Haven ranks close to Bridgeport in the same respect. our-moat beautiful trees, it is certainly tragic that a city is willing to spend such sums to have them removed after they die or become badly diseased, rather than a little money into the prevention of such a terrible disease as the Dutch elm disease. The city would still have the trees and have spent much less money. The Dutch elm disease is almost impossible to contpoi it -gets its grips on a tyee, it a reasonable matter to prevent it from ever reaching a tree.

denote its presence by the wilting and yellowing of the leaves oh one or more branches. A discoloration of aapwood occurs in the affected branches, trunk and roots. If the Dutch elm disease is present a diagonal cut through branches with wilted or yellowing leaves will show brown spots, ah arc, or a complete brown circle in one. or more of the afrmuajL rings of the wood. Positive identification disease should be left to the Bureau of Entomology and ft Plant Quaran tine of the Department of Agriculture, two'other diseases of the elm hatve similar symptoms.

Tha disease itself is carried "by the elm "bark beetle.

The disease is a vascular disease that plugs the vessels elm, thus starving the tree. We must spray to prevent it: In March the entire bark surface should sprayed with spray (DiyTJ."

Since our laws have per- niitted land monopoly and Ifind speculation, and there is no more free land to be had, we are in danger of economic tyranny. But we do not need to fight physically ecpnomic freedom. We need only to use our brains, to think, and to demand thought fcom this'subject. Bight aotloa follows right thinking. C.

W. F. NATION FACES ECONOMIC A SAYS C. W. To the Editor: Land-value increases are a result of the presence and of the increase of population resulting in mounting- production exchange and jserv- ice.

This.rentalJ,crement Therefore it should be collected by government to carry on its functions of protecting in- dividuaL rights and providing for public improvements. Land monopoly is the root cause of social injustices saving 1 rise to restrictions, vested privileges, tax on the products of labor and capital, extremities of poverty and riches, excessive and cbrnlpt governments, armaments and conflicts, class distinctions, discriminations amongst nationaliti-s and. races, and jn fact, most of; ill? of.mankind. A was young, tKe primary need was for political lib- 6ur forefathers fought, tledi and died to if. There WES plenty in the country, LABOR PROBLEM CONSIDERED WRITER MAKES SUGGESTION To the Editor; years past the Democratic has appealed especially for the labor vote.

Under former President Rcosevelt labor achieved many gams auch as the Wagner Act, A leader was always welcome at the White House, and his advice was respected. Quite a difference has occurred under President man, Although the President has been lavish with promises ollEavor- for labor including the repeal of the "Eaft-rHartley act, he has not made a serious-effort to carry them outV When railroad labor was unwilling to accept trifling wage increases President Truman ha become indignant and called them "Russians." He even turned over the railroads to military control to break a strike, At present it is difficult to name a labor leader who is welcome at the White House. But instead find '6rgamzed" labor "battling to stop the enactment of- wage controls without adequate price controls. In this fight the Administration is taking little interest It unfortunate that labor has no party which is sincerely working in its interests. Perhaps a third or labor party supported by the unions would be an answer to this predicament B.

ROGERS Milford. COONPERAT1ON IS NEEDED ft TO ATTAIN WORUD PEACE To the While our military commanders are -maeting in, Korea with the Chinese and North Koreans and while prayers of millions of Americans and others cry out for successful negotiations, Sen. Paul Douglas haw announced opposition to peace at the 38th Parallel and warned against trusting any. agreement with the Chinese. His "statement amounts to sabotage and treason against the desires of the people.

Consider, the. union or management if, while they wefe In session, officers from their announced that agreement with the other aide could not be honored. Sen. Douglas'-- Btatement has resentaHves at Kaesong. He has decided in advance that peace is not possible Sen, Douglas is not reflecting the opinion of the American people.

Because it was the outspoken de- and determination of the American people and the rest of the the world that human slaughter in Korea must stop that forced the world's leaders to agree to cease fire talks. The spontaneous response to Sen. -Johnson's resolution for cease fire Introduced into the Senate last May has proved the Amcrfcan people want peace not war. Peace in Korea is possible. Let the people of Korea whose coUn- try has been destroyed foreigners, whose women and children have died under a rain of bombs decide their own form of government But this is but the first step before we can sleep restfully in world at peace.

the major powers of the world--the United States, Soviet Union, Great Britain, China, France--meet at a negotiations table. Let them put all outstanding differences on the Let each give little. Let them work out a lasting peace. Peatfe can be won if all the people ofx'the world let their leaders know they want negptiationa for peace. Thfe invention of tha atom bomb ruled out war as a means of settling differences between nations.

No country can achieve clear- cut military victory over another while its cities are systematically disappearing off the face of the earth. ROBERT LIGHT 1071 rlrahistan avenue.

As a result of Anglo-Araerican support of Japan, tn Anglo-Japanese' alliance ws formul- lated. Thia ws the first recognition of an east Asian- people as an equal by Western power. The Anglo-Japanese alliance was one of the most constructive arrangements in Asiatic affairs and it was a pity that American influences after World War I brought it to an end.

In, 1904, Japan went to war with receiving the moral and financial support of the United States. (At that time, financial support constated of loans from private Japan won that war by the treaty of Portsmouth, Kew Hampshire, Theodore Koosevelt, who was then President, taking, the position thai a strong Japan was essential to the peace of east Asia. For that peace was even then im- perilled by the aggressive imperialism of Russia and th? weakness and disorganization of China, Theodore RooaeveJJt, who was influenced in thinking: by John Hay Henry Cabot Lodge, and Ellhu Root, moved soundly in Asiatic affairs.

However, the United States gent General Douglas MacArthur to Japan an pro-consul, who, instead of treating thia nation as a conquered foe, out to rebuild it as a bulwark against Soviet ftussia. It is this magnanimous policy wiiich is now incorporated in the Dulles treaty. The Japanese recognized the historic significance Mae- Arthur's rcrie-and bended to it.

Unlike some ef the European which regarded the Marshall Plan ae -weaknets and the nftststunee in their reconstruction provided the United States as selfishly motivated, the Japanese were- grateful that they been saved from the fate of and cooperated faithfully with MacArthur, hoping that the world would se turn on its axis that Japan would be restored to And so, in accordance Tvith the Dulles treaty, Japan's industry and her military powef will restored and Japan will take the place which she should never have lost.
