AMERICAN VEGETABLE
SEEDS FOR EUROPE

Los Angeles, Calf, Oct. For the
first time in history. the United States
is sending vegetable seeds abroad
Speeding across the continent-bound
from California for somewhere in
Francois a carload of embryonic
Southern California products, the first
installment of 500 tons that will be
sent to the allies to aid them in feed
ing themselves.
The seeds sent are endive, radish.
carrot. lettuce, tomato and other gar
den varieties. 1t is estimated that the
initial carload will plant from $4,000
to 5000 acres of truck. If the entire
tonnage reaches Europe safely. It
means that nearly 100000 acres may
be planted for which otherwise there
would be no seed. 1t is expected that
California will keep UP Indefinitely the
sending of vegetable seeds to the allies.

FIREMEN ASK
l2-HOUR DAY

Tacoma firemen complain. that
the public has obtained a wrong
impression, thru recent newspaper
reports, of their new fight for
shorter hours.
They are asking for a 12-hour
day, and not for double platoon,
the men say. While a double
platoon system, which was reject
ed by a vote of the taxpayers three
years ago, would greatly increase
the cost of maintaining the fire
department, a 12-hour day would
only require the addition of "a
men, the firemen assert.
At present the firemen are on
duty "a hours a day, with one day
off in eight.
They maintain that with a L.
hour day, they can give greater
efficiency, as there will always be
men off duty available for emer-
gency work in protecting outlying
districts whenever a large fire Is
being fought bf the active shift.
Ffremen are obtaining statistics
to prove that the cost will be
slight, and efficiency will be in
creased. They will ask the city
council, at It's coming budget ses-
sions, to grant 12-hour day.
