INTEREST AROUSED IN GARDEN PLANS
Many Applications for As. sistance Filed; Land to
 Be Tested Shortly

AS soon aS the frost leaves tho ground, tho War Garden committed will test the parcels Of land which have been offered to the war gar. den headquarters, to determine which pessesSes tho proper soil for neurlshing vegetables, said William DefWin, member of the committee,
 "Like tho prellmlharles to the baseball season, tho people of Wa. terbury are already getting very enthusiastic about tho campaign, The best evidence Of this is their admirable response In filling out tho Community War Garden ReglstFa- ton blank" he added, tThe Com. munity War Garden Registration blank Is reprinted In tonighte Dem- eerat), His desk was literally GOV. cred with filled applications,
 Bernard MeDenald, chairman Of the mayors committee, said yester- day that all produce raised in war gardens iS for tho owners' cons sumption, "FheFe Is to Do no pool' ing of produce for public sale or other purposes" he added, This ended tho rumor that harVests were to be sold to the public. "EVery last vegetable is to Do used by the persons who raise them," he ems phaBlGed,
 The committee Is Stlll seeking va cant property where gardens may Do laid out, WaterbuFians desiring to do SO arc requested to telephone tho park department, bs0iSi, Farm CTS and others with blowing equlp' ment who wish to rent thelr equip' ment to local war gardeners on eer' tain days In the week are also re-. auested to register this equipment at war garden headquarters,
 Full cooperation of the police de-. partment with the war garden ef- fort was pledged by It's superinten" dent, Daniel Carson.
 The war garden committee VIII mete with tho local defense council In tho near future to straighten out certain details of interest to both, said Chairman MeDonald.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-03-12

Officlals now admit that the pub. lie was not prepared for the shock of unexpectedly short ratlonS; that In the future 1t should be taken more into the confidence Of food administrators,
 Food Administrator Claude R, Wiekard announced he is going to tell the public the "eold, hard facts" from time to tlme, It s Q thanklesS Job and one, that many of his associates believe may make him unpopular,
 Sees People Cooperating
 They arguo that no ono likes the bearer of III tldingS; that he aS both secretary of agriculture and food administrator may be hold person. ally responsible for tho bad news he gives the people,
 1T feel that the American people if they know tho facts ean Do trust cd to help manage their food wlses ly," Wiekard replied, "dlVen the facts, they will proceed calmly and effielently to mako tho adjustments in civilian use of food that are needed 50 American food can fight for us around the globe"
 The months ahead, he believes, will be critical on the homo front, They will give the acid test to his slogan that "food will win the war and write the peace" Ration plans now are based on expectations Of at least 0 normal crop year,
 More Ifs Than Ever
 But there are more "ifS" to farnas ing this year than ever before. Some of tho moro serious Rfe' If the weather and other growing conditions are favorable; If farm. OTIS can got enough machines, or sufficient labor, or fertilizer, and If Insect damage is not greater than normal because of shortage Of ih- Seetieldes,
 If any one or combination of these factors 90 wrong tho public can expect to tighten It's belt just that many netiehes, The first mis- hap u- tho iate February freeze in Texas and Florida -- caused food officials to misealeulate on the amount of fresh winter vegetables that would Do available,
 Despite large eVer.normal graa' Ary reserves built up before the war, the nation has Q safe surplus of only ono major food nm wheat, Supplies on hand and on the pro duetion line" of some others are large, but not as large as tho de- mand,
 Admits Mistakes
 Wickard now recognizes publicly that he and other food officials made mistakes affecting the na- tion's food supplies. He thinks we atO too well last year; that we should have begun ratloning 6 year earlier. That isn't entirely second. guessing, either. His speeches as carly aS the spring Of le42 contain that warning.
 Tho second mistake follows na' turaiiy from the first, He says now that tho pinch of rationlng IS sharper because wo failed to store away sufficient reserves Of critical foods-that we wasted food when wo had more than we actually needed.
 There have been other mistakes: of "too little and too late" The supply of farm machines will be dangerovsly small because the War Production Board did not heed until too late Wickard's warn' Ing against cutting production to loss than one-third Of l042,
