announced here by company offi-||
cials following their return from
Washington, where they confer- T.
red with Attorney General Homer
Cummings, J. Edgar Hoover, director
of the Federal Bureau of 1
Trurootio-aHnn. and other interes- I
ted department heads.
A complete episode, based on
government records of the bureau's
special agents, will be dramatized
in a half-hour program F
each week.
All the scripts in the series
will be based on the actual records
of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, and will be submitted
to Director Hoover for checking
before a program goes on the r;
air. a'
Phillips H. Lord, nationally
known for his depiction of the ^
radio character "Seth Parker,"
who will write the scripts, is now
in Washington making a first-;
hand study of the operations of i
the Federal Bureau of Invest!gation,
which has made available i
to him its records of completed ^
cases.
While pleased with the public j
interest in the spectacular cases! {
it has handled, the Department of | .
Justice. Washington understands, [ (
feels that emphasis on its work I (
has been somewhat distorted, and ,
that the drama of the sustained, I '
persistent and relentless pursuit J
of criminals, originating in its a
great scientific laboratories, has been
subordinated. j
Chervolet Motor Company be-1
lieves it is discharging a public
duty by holding up a clear mir-1
ror to the G-Man and letting the I
true reflection, as contained in I
the official records, speak for it- I
/
he war on crime.
"If this can be done, the G-Man
vill be an instrument of law enforcement
which should cause po- j
tential violators to hesitate a j
long time before taking the chanle
of having the Federal Bureau
>f Investigation going to work
in them.
"Public enemy after public en;my
has been overthrown. Gang,
after gang has been jailed or ex-1
terminated. Some years ago we |
ioubted if it could be done. The |
iaw-breaker was in the saddle. t
But it has been done. We will
present the true histories of how
t was done in the hope that misguided
persons will see the hopeessness
of crime, and be more
jonvinced than ever that the GHen
get their man.
"If there are some who are
itill dazzled by the false glamor
>f the gangster, we hope these
adio programs will show how
ittle glamor is left to the crimilal
when he comes to the end of
he road."
Insect Control

'ests Usually Multiply At
Rapid Rate During July
And August And May
Damage Crops Seriously
If Not Checked
Insect pests usually multiply
apidly during the month of July
nd August. If unchecked, they
lay spread rapidly and damage
ie crops seriously.
C. H. Brannon, extension entolologist
at State College, urges j
11 growers to keep a sharp lookut
for insects during the sumaer,
and to start dusting or
praying when infestations are
liscovered.
Tobacco growers can control
he horn worm by dusting with
irsenate of lead or witl- the onen-six
flea beetle poison. The
lusting should begin as soon as
he worms are found in appreciable
numbers, he stated.
Immediately after harvest, he

continued, it is advisable to kill
all the tobacco stalks to prevent
pests from feeding on them and
entering the winter season in a
flourishing condition.
Examine the cotton squares at
least once a week, he said, and
as soon as 10 per cent show
signs of infestation with boll
weevils, start dusting with calcium
arsenate, or a mixture of
equal parts of lime and calcium
arsenate.
The hot, dry weather during
June does not mean that boll
weevils will be scarce this year,
Brannon said, for damp, warm
weather in July and August will
cause the weevils to multiply almost
without limit.
The Mexican bean beetle must
be controlled if the late beans
are to mature well and yield a
good crop. Derris powder, which
contains rotenone, is recommended.
It gives excellent results in
controlling the beetlea and is not
poisonous to human beings, Brannon
pointed out.
Directions For
Keeping Flowers
Cut Flowers Can Be Kept
For Considerable Time If
Proper Care Is Taken In
Cutting And Changing
Water For Them
Cut flowers can be kept for a
considerable time when given the
proper care, says Glenn O. Randall,
associate professor of horticulture
at State College.
Cut the flowers with a sharp
knife early in the morning' or late
in the afternoon, he advises.
Then immerse the stems full
length in cool water and place
them in a cool place for an hour
or more.
Keep flowers only in clean containers.
Change the water ai
least once a day, more often ir
extremely hot weather.
When changing the water, cui
I off about an inch of the stem!
I so as to provide a fresh surfaci
I through which the water maj

pass. Hold the stems under wate
while cutting off the end, as thi
keeps air from getting into th
conducting tissue and blockinj
the flow of the water.
Remove the soft lower leave
from the stems, as they have i
tendency to decay quickly. Kee]
the flowers in a cool place a
night to preserve them longer.
Don't put aspirin, salt, quinine
potassium permanganate, orothe
chemicals in the water, for the;
do not help the flowers, contrar
to popular belief, Randall point
out.
However, an experiment a
Cornell University has show]
that keeping flowers in a coppe
vessel helps prolong their life. 1
small quantity of the copper dis
solves in the water and hinder
the growth of the bacteria whicl
cause decay.
Do not handle the flower
roughly, as anything that tend
to break or bruise the plant
causes them to wither sooner
Randall adds.

j i year after he had laid John Dil-11
| linger low, Melvin Purvis, one of s
j( i the nation's best known "G-Men," j
r 1 resigned today. t
y The 32-year-old soft-spoken f
y Southerner, whose main conver- t
s sations with gangland was pun- i
ctuated with splattering bullets,
t said he quit for "purely personal h
^ i reasons." A lawyer, it was as- v
r | sumed he would soon enter pri- a
^I vate practice, although a politi- j
. j cal position was not regarded as i;
s J unlikely. s
i Shortly after J. Edgar Hoover, f
chief of the Department of Jus- t
s tice in Washington, said he had e
s | accepted Purvis' resignation, an- t
s I nouncement was made that D. s
(}M. Ladd, of the St. Paul office, t
had been appointed head of the
Chicago Bureau of Investigation v
to succeed him. Purvis had char- ti
, ge of the bureau since November, v
' 1932. r
