NEEDS OF FARMERS TO BE CONSIDERED
Adequate Gasoline Sup- piled to Applicants to
 Date

Herbert B. Hubbell, chairman of the farm transportation committee announced today that his commit tee, cooperating with the ODT and the OPA is doing all in it's power to facilitate the farmers gasoline prob lem
 Up to the present time farmers have received adequate gasoline to carry on their essential duties and it is the hope of the committee, |" MT. Hubbell stated that it will be possible for these farmers to con- tinue being supplied with enough fuel to meet their requirements. However, in view of the critical sit uation of motor fuels, which is rap idly reaching crisis, am appeal ing to the farmers of New Haven county to conserve their gasoline in all ways possible. Combine all er- randS in single locality into one trip. Do not travel with an empty truck, maybe your neighbor has something to be moved. Realizing the seriousness of the situation farmers will be able to add other methods of conservation and if all New Haven county farmers will faithfully conserve, we can be aS- sured that the available gasoline supply will be distributed among us and the increased production goals for 1943 will be reached"

unfortunate instances which have occurred this spring in various parts of the country About five weeks ago heavy frost occurred in the Che shire area killing thousands of cab- bage plants which the grower had ventured to plant about a week earlier than the average planting time in that section. Also, the re- cent Mississippi Valley flood has de- layed the planting of early corn in that part of the country for one month.
 In our section the continued rain and cool weather has done consid- erable damage to the seed and plants already in the ground.
 The War Garden Committee will advise the applicants by mail as to just where their garden is in the various community plots. The City Engineering Department is stalking out and numbering each garden plot which will be completed in a few days.

Advice to Be Given to Amateur Gardeners Still Time
 for All Interested to Join Drive

Many people who have applied for community war gardens are becom- ing impatient to do their planting, some asking the question lis it too late-to plant?" and Bernard Me Donald, chairman of the war garden committee discusses the amateurs concerns in the following article:
 Many people who have applied for Community War Gardens are becom- ing anxious about the planting time and some are wondering if it is too late. Naturally with the food situa- tlon as it is, we are not surprised that such a feeling exists particularly with amateur gardeners. Even the experienced gardener plants to ob- tain crops as early as possible using methods of protection from frosts which he knows is likely to come later. The average date time for frost in this section of the country is about May 15. It is well to keep in mind the fact that this spring is some three weeks later than usual
 The local gardener is often in- f1unced when he learns that earlier crops are obtained from places in the neighborhood of Cheshire or New Haven which are not vary many miles from Waterbury. This is not due to any material differen- enceS in climate but rather, the kind of soil. For a distance of about ten miles on both sides of the Con- necticut River the soil is is termed a red sand stone soil.
 Such soil drains off the water warns up earlier white the kind Warfms up earlier white the kind of soil found in most of our local gardens is of a heavier type which holds the moisture much longer and naturally is cooler. It may be under stood then that the difference ir planting time between these sec tionS is caused by the kind of sol and not the climate
 It may ease the mind of some of our local gardeners to know of the

New Parking Measure
 To Reduce Accidents
Motor Vehicle Department AccIaims General Assem- bIy's Act Restricting Parking Near Intersections

A long step toward the reduction f intersection accidents was taken by the Connecticut General Assem- ply in passing bill restricting park Ing near intersections, Motor Vehi- cles Commissioner John T. Mc- Carthy commented in a department bulletin today.
 The new law, effective October l, prohibits the parking of vehicles within 25 feet of an intersection or a mraked crosswalk thereat, or within 25 feet of stop sign"
 It is the first state legislation con- eerning parking near intersections and was asked for by the commis- sioner because obstructed vision at intersections is frequently an acci- dent cause, according to the bull letin.
 How important this law is can be seen in the accident figures" Com missioner Mccarthy said. During the first four months of this year, b6eo of the automobile accidents in
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-05-26

this state occurred at city inter sections and 37% of the pedestrians injured were struck at city inter- sections.
 After October 1 tine new law will be rigidly enforced by state and To- cal traffic authorities. It is a re- Striction, however, that will be well comed by all responsible drivers since anyone who drives knows the inconvenience an danger caused by cars parked to close to a corner.
 Tt will safeguard the pedestrian also who, too often, because of uparked cars, is well out on the roadway before he is seen by an approaching driver"
 In an effort, to prevent careless stopping or parking, the legislature specified further that mo vehicle shall b permitted to remain station ary within the limits of public highway in such a manner as to constitute traffic hazard or ob- struct the free movement of traffic thereon"
 If, however, a vehicle has be- come disabled to such an extent that it is impossibl or impractical to remove it, it my "be permitted to so remain for reasonble time for the purpose of making repairs thereto or of obtaining sufficient as- sistance to remove It."
 It was explained also that accord ing to the new statutory definition of a parked vehicle" a car that is sttionary within the limits of a public highway is "parkd" even though the driver is seated at the wheel.

VICTORY
 FOR LEWIS NOTED
Union Officials, Soft Coal Operators Reopen Nego-
 tiatiOns Today /
By RAYMOND LAIR United Press Staff COrrespondenTl

NOnLeu PreSS stan C0rfeSpOn0enkl
 Washington, May 26-CUP)-JohD L. Lewis and 8 delegation of United Mine Workers officials, confident that they were well on the road to achieving many of their demands, reopened contract negotiations to- day with northern and southern bi- luminous coal operators.
 The meeting, called at the direc. ton of the War Labor board, waa the first at which both northern and southern operators had sat around the same bargaining tabls with the miners since the two groups split in 1941.
 This also was the first time Lewis and the United Mine Workers had acknowledged the authority of the War Labor board to deal with the dispute. Lewis readily agreed to meet with the operators after the board had issued an order yesterday that was regarded as at least a partial victory for the mine workers.
 It was believed that the question of portal to portal pay was the prin- cipal issue to be settled. Union spokesmen have said that settlement of that issue would pave the way to an agreement.
 One informed source said the VILE offered a 50-50 chance of set clement within a few days.
 Both sides withheld comment, but it was evident that the UNIV had 11-oY, i,,,norto,ot Ca,,oa,oIc o1tbo1Ioh the VILE flatly denied its request for $2 daily masic wage increase the board practically approved the union request for portal-to-portal pay and thus left the way open for the miners to receive substantial increases in pay envelopes without disturbing basic wage rates.
 It was believed that any agree ment on the portal-to-portal ques- tion would assure the miners of pay increase of at least $1 daily.
 Since some operators were re- ported anxious to negotiate, pros poets of settling the 10-week old dis pute appeared brighter. The VILE order did not contain the provision which blocked attempts to settle the case under the boards May IA in terim directive. That order required Lewis and the operators to meet with the board to arrange for re- newed bargaining, but Lewis, who has repeatedly snubbed the board on grounds it had prejudged the case, refused to appear.
 Other VILE concessions gave the miners an increase in vacation pay from $2O to $50 annual and required the operators to assume the charges -totaling 10 to Is cents daily-for cap lights and tool maintenance.
 The VILE ruling on the six-day week fell short of union demands in that the board agreed with the operators that they could not guar antee the miners six days of work weekly for 52 weeks a year.

.SOVIETS SEIZE
 FOUR VILLAGES
Six Enemy Vessels and Escort Boat Sunk Off
 Caucasian Coast
By M. S. HANDLER

United Press StaH Correspondent
 Moscow, May 26.-(UP) - Soviet troops seized four villages in sudden thrusts northwest of Moscow today and the Russians announced that Navy planes have sunk six landing vessels and an escort boat in the Black Sea off the Caucasian coast.
 The villages fell to the Russians on the 'Kalinin front" the midday communique said, but probably were in the vicinity of Kholm, ITS miles west of Kalinin, as there has been no fighting near Kalinin itself since the winter of 1941-42.
 One hundred German officers and men were killed in the fighting for three of the localities, the high command said, while the Soviets wiped out the entire garrison of the fourth, identified only as a strongly fortified point.
 The sinking of the seven vessels by the Black Sea fleet air arm was believed to have interrupted frenzied German efforts to reinforce the shrinking Axis bridgehead around Novorossisk in the northwest Cau- caSuS.
 Striking along a 45-mile stretch of the Caucasian coast between An apa and Kerch above NovoroSsiSk, the Soviet planes sank two of three large German landing boats carry ing 200 men each, three of four fast landing boats, one of two E. boats and one of two large trans ports.
 (The Berlin radio acknowledged that the Soviets have gained naval superiority in the Black Sea and also reported that Russian troops have landed on the Black Sea coast south of NovoroSSiSk0
 Russian torpedo bombers were credited with sinking a German transport of 10000 tons in the Bar ents Sea.
