In Some Sections Of S t

Raleigh —• Japanese beetles
have become such a menace ir
some sections of North Carotins
that farmers and other property
owners in these areas were warn
ed today to exercise their owr
cont:ot measures instead of re
lying on public agencies to check
tlie invaders' depredations.
C. 11 Brannon. head of the En
ton? logy Division of the State
Department of Agriculture, saic
that mfe.-dations have become sc
wuie-spreari that the joint state
federal a rlrol program is insuf
ficient to ivpe with the problem
“Those engaged in this pro
gram.’' he continued, “will have
to concentrate this year on re
ducing infestation at loading
points and preventing spread ol
the insects to new areas. Farm
ers and other property owner*
will have to use individual con
trol measures to combat the
beetles or. their own land. De
