down our race, our nation or our rei-

Fa too often we are apt, in our re-

on our own individual ability and in

it would warrant. This is one thing
we can avoid, and one thing we must
do. We must remember, unfair
though it may be, that not only will
we be judged by our actions, but that
all of the group from which e'come

question of minorities as it does to

We can carefully reason out that
the discrimination practiced against
some of us is the fruit of ignorance.
and while we can try to lift ourselves
above it, there is bound to be an in

be big enough not to let this resent

which more than anything else would

Only as we have self-respect can

SEEK INCREASE. TN CHILDREN IN. GARDEN SERVICE.

Washington, Aug. 2s - (UP) - The office of Education will launch a drive to enroll millions of school children fin it's school garden pro- gram this September, Dr. Walter IT. Gaumnitz, directc. of the schcool garden service of the Office of Edu- cation, has announced.
 We are making a survey now to learn how many school children we have now enrolled" said pr. Gaum- nitz. There were 100000 chil- dren gardening during the World War. There will be many times that number this time"
 The garden service started last February to provide basic foods for the nationwide school lunch pro- gram. At the suggestion of Mrs. Roosevelt, garden partnerships were worked out between urban and rural children, with the farm children furnishing the land and tools, and those from the towns the seeds and money.
 Tn Fayette county, Kentucky this plan proved successful, Dr. Gau- | IIlIllbI Sdlu, WlCH % TUT Tdl-uTUAE partnerships in operation. Tn New berry county, South Carolina, there are 20 acres of school gardens under cultivation and a community can- nery to prepare the vegetables for school lunches.
 ] A full-time supervisor directs the 75-acre school garden program in Greenyille county, South Carolnia, where there are 5000 successful backyard gardens.
 The home garden service Is an unusual government service be- cause 1t has no special funds allo- cated for its program and works with local groups, such as teachers, the P-TA, All clubs and other youth groups.
 Dr. Gaumnitz believes the school garden program should continue after the war. Such ca program" :" he said, greatly reduces the shock of depressions. People are not i'm mediately destitute when they have community gardens, and they don't go to pieces so easily"

Food Poisoning Brings
 Action By Bureau
Dairy, Food Commission Cites Shortages Due to War;
 4,264 Inspections Made During Month

Decisive action in cases of food poisoning, the reuse of salvaged crowns for beverages and the man. ufacture of remedies for cancer and gallstones were reported by State Dairy and Food Commissioner John J. Sweeney in the July report of the department made public to- day.
 Shortages caused by the war and the temptation to substitute have added to the work of the depart ment. Untiring vigilance is requir- ed to insure safe food and drug supplies for Connecticut consum- CTS.
 Totals for the month included 4,264 inspections and the taking of 2,930 samples.
 Dairy Division
 During June, milk volumes de- creased to such an extent that by the end of the month fluid milk was short in the open market. Over the July 4th holiday, milk shortage in- creased to such an extent that ii was necessary for the dairy anc food commissioner to allow three shipments of milk which originated outside of our natural milk shed However, these shipments came from Connecticut inspected sources Apparently, milk consumption drop. ped after the middle of July ant milk production increased so that by the end of the month, there was actually a sufficient supply of milk and a surplus of cream.
 About July 20, food poison ing fiare-up occurred at 8 summer camp in Litchfield county, and the investigation of doctors from the State Department of Health and the local attending physicians indicated the cause originated with the con- sumption of pasteurized milk. Im- mediately, drastic action taken by representatives of the Dairy and Food Commission prevented a re- currence, and special survey of the entire situation failed to prove that the pasteurized milk contained any organic matter which might have caused the trouble.
 During the month an important decision has been handed down by

the supreme court regarding the scope of the powers of the dairy and food commissioner to delineate the extent. of the milk shed of this state. The decision is now being studied by the attorney general, and the commissioner is awaiting the attorney generals definition of the decision before taking any further action.
 There were 1,243 inspections of dairy farms during the month, along with the taking of 2,885 sam- ples of milk, 108 inspections of raw milk plants and BOA inspections of pasteurizing plants.
 Food Division
 During the month of July inspec- tions were made of all beverage plants in the state to determine, among other things, whether or not reused crowns were being put on bottled beverages. Experimental work was carried on in the state laboratory in an effort to determine whether or not reused crowns could be properly sterilized. To date the results have been unsatisfactory.
 Embargoes were placed on three gallons of olive oil found to be mis- branded and adulterated. Inasmuch as this involved small quantity, the owner was allowed to break the seals on the cans and use the oil for his personal family use.
 The following merchandise was found to be unfit for human con- sumption and was condemned and destroyed: 16 lbs. frankfurts, AS lbs. dill pickles, 10 lbs. ham, 13 lbs. pigs liver, 5 lEs. beef kidneys, 2 lbs. of bulk chocolate and g bottles of va- nilla.
 Inspectors of the food division made 2,337 inspections during the month.
 Drug Division
 Activities of the drug division for the month included the investiga- tion of the indiscriminate distribu- tion of phenobarital, hypnotic drug, causing 8 series of automobile accidents in Middletown and the prosecution of the manufacturer of Remedy for Cancer and Gall stones".
 The Middletown druggist accused of the illegal sale of phenobarital was given hearing before Commis- sioner Sweeney at which time 1t was revealed that Middletown manu- facturer had become habituated to the use of the hypnotic and had had two or more automobile acci- dents while under the influence of the drug. The druggist blamed a clerk, since discharged, for the sales and was warned that another of- fense would result in his being prosecuted.
 The manufacturer of the alleged remedy for cancer and gallstones told the commissioner that he is a spiritualist medium and that the formula for his preparations were revealed to him by his guiding spirit. He pleaded guilty in the Hartford police court and was sen- tenced to three months in jail and fined $10. Execution of the jail sen- tence was suspended on his prom ises to go out of business. The court ordered that all of the mans remedies found by the drug divi- sion's inspectors be destroyed.
 The routine work of the drug division resulted in the seizure of 660 packages of dangerous or mis- branded drugs in wholesale drug plants and stores holding licenses to sell patent medicines. Those considered dangerous were destroy ed while relabeling of the mis- branded items was permitted.
