Elm Blight Prompts Vermont Action and Debate
The article describes efforts to combat Dutch Elm disease in Vermont, noting a halted state program due to lack of funds and ongoing testing. It covers disease spread since 1947, beetle transmission, past treatments, and views from experts at Bennington College and Elm Institute on pruning, spraying, Benlate use, and future planting under Project Elm in Burlington. Local towns consider tree removals while awaiting preventive strategies, with bids in Bennington for 15 trees and a 7,000 dollar removal allotment, signaling limited shade gain.

It would allow certain State Department and Foreign Service officers to testify about intelligence use, let policy officers discuss subordinate recommendations without naming authors, and provide summaries of Cyprus recommendations without identifying authors. Pike pressed for full access and threatened contempt of Congress. Kissinger quipped about Christians in the Coliseum as he entered the hearing.
