WHAT SCIENCE
1S DOING
Corn Borer
More than 40,000 wasps and
dies, released by the Department •
1 Agriculture are battling in I11i-
nois cornfields against the dread-
ed European corn borers attacking
;the crop, Another 5,000 insects wi11
1111 'turned loose 3n a few days.
The wasps and flies,gathered in
New Jersey, are natural enemies
of the borer and are being re-
leased in an effort to check the
borer increase which already has
reached alarming, proportions,
The winged.. fighters turn the
tables on the borers by doing a
little boring themselves. The wasps
penetrate the body of the borer
And lay eggs in it. The fly deposits
eggs on the outside of the borer.
Both parasites crawl into the tuns
ad made by the borer in the corn
stalk to reach their prey,
The eggs of the wasps and flies
live on the body of the borer and
ontinue to feast on it even when
he borer enters the pupa stage.
Then, instead of a new generation
of borers emerging from the pupa,
out comes a new batch of wasps
and flies to continue their work.
Two different tyres of small
wasps are being used and a fly
which resembles the common
house fly. These parasites have
been used with moderate success
(1i the East. Iowa also is using
them
this year as borer's arc sbow-
ing up in appreciable numbers for
the first time in Iowa corn fields.
British Planes
Drop Surgeons
The Royal Army Medical Corps
has parachute surgical teams that
have already been in action with
great Success.
The Lancet describes one unit
that established itself in a farm
building, which had been seized by
paratroops. It ran the building as a
hospital for two days, while a bat-
tle raged around it. During that
period the unit performed 85 oper-
ations. Thirty-one of the patients
later reached base hospitals in good
condition.
Each team consists of six men,
all of whom have been trained to
be able to do everyone eise's job in
the event of casualties among the
team during landing.
Equipment is designed especial-
ly for lightness, compactness and
portability, so that the unit can
move swiftly through rough coun-
t try, possibly under fire. The -unit
carries a light operating table with
tressels, all presumably collapsible. •
They also drop with anaesthetics,
plaster, dressings, fuel, plasma, pri-
mus stoves, Paraffin pressure lamps
and electrical headlamps supply
the surgeons With light for their
work.

THE WAR • WEEK -- Commentary on Current Events
An Outline Of Lord Vansittart's
Twelve Points To Win The Peace
The "Win the Peace" Movement,
of which Lord Vansittart has ac-
cepted the presidency, has planned
a number of meetings to bring to
the notice of the public the 12 -point
"peace charter", says the Man-
chester Guardian.
1. The unconditional surrender
of Germany and of the other Axis
and their satellite Powers.
8, The effective occupation of
Germany by an Allied Army and
Air Force and the establishment of
an inter -Allied Council of Control,
to be maintained until it is decided
by the Governments concerned to
be no longer necessary.
8. The arrest and trial of per-
sons believed guilty of war crimes
in the countries where they were
committed. Neutral countries to be
requested not to give sanctuary to
any war criminals.
4. The complete demobilization
and disarmament of all German
armed forces, including the surren-
der of the German fleet and Luft-
waffe; the same procedure to be
applied to the other Axis Powers.
6. The police forces in Germany
to be regional and free from cen-
tral control and to be demilitarized.
e. The abolition in Germany of
all military or semi -military train-
ing at any age in any form what-
ever, including the abolition of the
officer's corps and training corps.
7. The evacuation of all territo-
ries invaded by the Axis Powers:
8. The restoration of, or compen-
sation for, loot, machinery, and
equipment removed or destroyed.
Also the restoration of, or compen-
sation for, commercial and indus-
trial 'interests forcibly acquired or
seized.
0. Tbc effective control and.
where required, the closing dowh
of Germany's war potentials, in-
cluding aviation in all its forms.
10, No financial loans or assist-
ance to be permitted to Germany
or to any of the other Axis Powers
without the approval of the Allied
Nations. •
11, The curricula of school and

university studies to be under inter -
Allied supervision and advice until

people is assured in accordance with
- the principles of international

12. The German radio and all
propaganda to be under inter Allied
supervision for such time as may
be necessary.

At the opening meeting in Man-
chester Lord Vansittart said it was
conceivable that the end of the war
might come at any time within 18
months from the coining winter,
and we had therefore got to be pre-
pared. "Whom are you going to be-
lieve," he asked — "those who

Slogan For Farm
Too Many Farm Accidents,
Says Coningwood Enterpriser
News
The cold truth is that the ratio,
of preventable accidents in agricul-
ture is higher than in any other in-
dustry. Many hundreds of farmers,
members of their families and
workers on fares are killed and
many thousands injured every year
in Canada as the result of acci-
dents, most of which could have
been prevented.
With the farm labor shortage
just now so acute and when all our
production of . food is so essential
to the war effort, the accident toll
is particularly serious.
A. survey has disclosed that ma-
chinery is the chief source of farm
work accidents; that live stock
runs a close second and that falls
are in third place. The wise farmer'
is he who learning the cause of
accidents tin his farm takes steps
to eliminate such causes and all
possible hazards, For example, the
fact that loose clothing causes one-
third of all farm accidents 'nvolving
machinery should make anyone
avoid that particular hazard like a
plague.
And the ever-present threat of
fire, which annually destroys mil-
lions of dollars' worth of rural .pro-
perty ought to be enoughfor a
farmer to justify devoting at east
a part of one morning per month
to looking round the farm for fire
hazards, too.
Prevention of accidents means
avoiding making an acute farm la-
Dor shortage more acute and also
means an even bigger contribution
to food production.
Safety first is a good slogan for
any farm.
