Gypsy Moth Still
Threatens State,
Assistance Asked
HARRISBURG —Unless steps
are taken immediately by Con
gress, Pennsylvania will be threat
ened by a second costly invasion
of highly destructive gypsy moth
caterpillars, Dr. William L Hen
ning, State Secretary of Agricul
ture. declared today.
He is urging a federal approp
riation of $1,500,000 to start a
kill campaign program tor event
ual eradication of gypsy moths
in southern New York State and
the New England states where
vast acreages of trees have been
defoliated.
From Southern New York State
He announced plans are under
way in the State Bureau of Plant
Industry to wipe out a relatively
small infestration of moths on
approximately 20 acres in Pike
and Wayne Counties early this
May It will be necessary to spray
approximately 60.000 in
Pennsylvania this year to cover
the areas where the moth may
have spread-
There is evidence, he explain
ed, that the pests came across
the Delaware River from south
ern New York State where in
sufficient federal and state funds
have permitted the pest to build
up along a wide front of forest
lands
“lf the moths are not set back
and m the future should make
a statewide invasion of Pennsyl
vania it would cost more than
$5,500,000 a year just to keep
them under control,” Dr. Hen
ning declared.
He said the peat must be stop
ped now in New York because
the area of infestation has spread
from the New England States
and has reached the Pennsylvania
lime.
Cost of Eight Million
At a cost of more than $8
million in federal and state funds,
an area of 640 square miles m
the Lackawanna-Luzerne County
[section was freed completely of
gypsy moths between 1932 and
11949 Since 1949 two small out
breaks were eradicated outside
of the original area of infestation
Use of DDT sprayed from air
planes was so effective that no
evidence of the pests remains
in the previously infested areas.
The same treatment will be ap
plied in early May to the Wayne
and Pike County spots in cooper
ation with the Federal Depart
ment of Agriculture, Dr. Henning
said.
The area of infestation today
is one-third greater than it was
nine years ago and could spread
through Pennsylvania and states
to the west and south in a very
few years- The pest spreads
through hurricanes, shipment of
lumber, plants and other mater
ials carrying egg masses.

KEEP FLAVOR

mation specialist.
