F„ H. Chittenden. The Federal quarantine on the Mexican Bean 
Beetle has been lifted at the suggestion of the Office of 
Truck Crop Insect Investigations of the Bureau of Entomology 
owing to the fact that recent scouting has discovered this 
insect well established at such distant points from the 
original outbreak in Alabama as Southern Alabama, eastern 
Tennessee, and eastern Kenoucky, so that practical quarantine 
measures are impossible.
