points out some of rite techmal prob

the war go on, planes must fly high

United Stites solved the problem, of
high-altitude fuel pressure, which
I had baffled both the British and tbe
Germans.
The result, he asserted, is that the

ish are capable bf flights at alti

in combat zones except under the
most hazardous conditions. More

Americans; scores of these new bomb

GOVERNMENT FINANCE.
DEFICIT WILL GROW.
For readers interested in the de
tails of governmental expenditures,
Secretary Morgenthau reports that
for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1941, the Government spent $12,710,
000,000 and collected $7,607,000,000,
leaving a net deficit of $55,103,000,
000.
The expenditures included $6,048,
000,000 for defense, which was about
four and a half billion dollars more
that the amount spent in 1940. The
a??iT\ was divided between, the War
Department, $3,635,000,000; Navy,
$2^17,000,000; Selective Service,
$131,000,000; Emergency ship con
struction, $12,000,000; Lend-Lease
$21,000,000; and Defense Housing,
$42,000,000.
The deficit was less than the
amount spent on . national defense,
TTufwing that the ordinary expenses
of the Government were met by re
ceipts. This condition will not exist
in. the present fiscal year, however,
because defense expenditures will be
doubled, and, consequently, the net
deficit for the present year yritt be
greatly in excess of the current fig
U68e
? I
On .June 30, the gross public debt
amounted to "$48,961,000,000. A
slight increase in the rate of interest
on new issues is seen in the fact that
the computed rate in l$4l was- 2.4
per cent, as compared with 1.63 in
1940 on similar issues.> . ?

Control For 2 Cotton
Insects Is Suggested
> ?
, A way to kill "two bugs with one
stone" is suggested to cotton growers
by J. 0. Rowell, Extension entomolo
gist of N. C. State College. He has
placed in the hands of county farm
agents a copy of a publication which
describes control of boll weevils and
cotton aphids with a single poison
mixture.
The new publication is U. S. De
paartment of Agriculture Leflet No.
E-538, "Dusting for Boll Weevil and
Cotton Aphid Control." The leaflet
describes a Derris-Calcium Arsenate
mixture which Government scientists
have found effective for the control
of the two destructive cotton insects.
Rowell said that county agents
will be glad to discuss cotton insect;
control with farmers, and are in a
position to obtain additional copies
of the'new Federal publication. They
also have available copies of the N.
C. State College Extension Folder
No. 64, "Boll Weevil Control."
In reporting on boll Weevil condi
tions, Rowell said that infestation is
very serious this season in spotted
areas. "I have made a rather exten
sive survey of the boll weevil situa
tion in the cotton counties," the en
tomologist said, "and I find that
weevil infestations are' very severe
in some, fields, and negligible in oth
ers.
"For instance," he continued, "one
cotton field in an area will reveal a
very high percentage of damaged
squares while another field a hun
dred yards away appears to have no
damaged squares. Such" a condition
makes it important that the cotton
grower keep a close check .on weevil
infestation. Accurate infestation
oounts will aid the grower in deter
mining whether to dust his entire
cotton crop or employ the 'spot dust
ing' method."
Rowell recommends that dusting
begin when 10 percent of the develop
ing squares show boll weevil egg
punctures.
