main in Washington a week or so

In his letter, LETTERS told Mr..
Roosevelt:
The problem of taking care of
the requirements of the armed
forces and keeping the country
on rubber, meanwhile conserving
the nations stock pile of natural
crude, is we'll in hand, though there
is present and prospective short
age of tire fabric, which is the re-
sponsibility of the War Production
Board.
"All of the major synthetic rub
Der plants, the construction of
which is under the jurisdiction of
the office of rubber director, are
either completed or substantially
so, with the exception of three
Practically all of the material is
available for the completion of
these three plants
Gle did not name the plants.)
Shortly before the White House
announcement, LETTERS talked with
reporters who came to check re-
ports he was leaving. He told them
he wanted to 60 back to "a hell of
big railroad that needed my at
tention." When he was asked
whether he would consider taking
another government job in Wash
ington he replied with an explosive
mol"
Its just a case of my feeling
that l can contribute more in this
emergency out there in the west
where there are traffic difficulties,
than l can sitting here in Wash
ington," LETTERS explained. He con-
firmed what his associates already
had said: That the close of his
career in the capital found him
mot mad at anybody"
We've run into a few rough
spots" he remarked, but on the
whole l think we've made some
contribution to the war effort.
las far as the army and navy
are concerned, we've got along
fine"

FALLING BACK

LONDON, Sept. 4. R - Axis
forces were falling back tonight in
what may become a duplication
of their retreat in Tunisia, that is,
a sudden abandonment of far
southern Italy.
It appeared that at the worst
for the allies the German with
drawal would become another Sic
lily for them-a strong but not
very hopeful stand in the rough
country farther up the Italian
peninsula.
The whole southern tip of Gala
bria, with the possible exception
of segme-t of the eastern ex-
tremity, was effectively in allied
control.
Axis batteries had been blasted
out and squeezed out of the north
ern shores of Messina strait, and
also the water had been cleared
and allied shipping was running
free there to save for the minor
danger of the badlydet eated en-
envy air arm.

Naugatuck, March % -- At c war garden rally Wednesday night in the high school. aids toward making Q war garden . success were given by Dr. Donals r. Jones, head of the New Haven experimental station. George R. Copeland of Boston, nu- triton specialist. spoke on meals which can be prepared with food stuffs still on the market. Mrs Clifford A, Teeple, chairman of the Naugatuck War Garden committee, presided.
 pr. Jones spoke of the many mis- takes made by amateur gardeners and warned his listeners against making them If they wished to have productive gardens, He advised that Q small piece of ground be worked well, rather than Q large section of ground poorly. The yield from the small section, he said, would be larger
 pr. Jones advised the amateur gardener to conflne himself to beans tomatoes and carrots. Other vege- tables may be tried, but he pointed out tho pitfalls in attempting to raise them.

 The green leafy vegetables -- chard, kale, and turnip grecns--are of greatest importance, and one or another of these should be avail- able in Q well-planned and cared- for garden from carly spring to freezing weather In tho fall. They should bo in every garden and should be eaten frequently,
 Tomatoes and beans are so widc- ly adapted that they should be grown by nearly all gardeners In the country, Tomatoes produce abundantiy and are easily canned they should be produced for can- ming as well as fresh use. Beets, carrots and onions can be stored for some time as well aS used fresh, and gardens may well be planned to include supplies sufficient to last long after harvest. Parsnips can be left in the ground all winter. Cab bage is easy to grow. Surplus cabs bage can be made into sn,ierkraut and heads of the Danish type can be stored.

The accompanying table, pre-. pared by the Bureau of Homo Ec- onomlcs, shows In general way tho value of various common vege- tables as sources of vltamin A, thiamin, ascorbic acid, riboflavin, calcium and iron, and also their energy value in terms of calories. Other vegetables, such as onions and beets, are valued highly In meals because of flavor and color, even though they arc not important for good nutrition,
 Deciding what vegetables to grow In the Victory Garden Is Q matter largely of family taste plus Q knowledge of food values. Selections should include kinds that all mem. bers of the family like and should be Of Q sufficient range to give adequate representation to the im- portRnt vitamins and minerals.
 Primarily, of course, those veg etables should be selected that will be enjoyed provided they can be grown successfully in the area.

 Where 1t is necessary to secure extensions of time for the filing of the completed return, a tentative return, properly signed and acc knowledgcd, and accompanied by a check, money order. or cash in tho amount of tho tentative esti- mated tax must be filed, together with q letter giving the reason for the request and the extension dc. sired.

Unfavorable Report
 Is Expected On Bill
This Would Eliminate Signing Property Lists Yeaflya
 Brief History Given in Letter

Naugatuck, March 2S.--It is ex. pected that Q bill introduced by Rep, William A. Painter to eliminate signing property lists here yearly when the property has not changed hands during the year win be voted on unfavorably by the finance com mittee of the general assembly.

 "At the suggestion of Henry Tit ley, the Republican assessor, intro- duced a bill eliminating the neces- sity of owners of real or personal property in Naugatuck signing the assessment lists every year when there was no change In the evalua- ton Of that property. This would have saved e great majority of the people of NaugRtuck from the in- convenient and time wasting neces- sity of appearing before the Rsses- sors every year, and would have greatly integrated the work of the assessors.
 "At Q hearing before the finance committee Of the general assembly Mrs. Erk and I presented these arguments to the committee and there was no opposition to the bill, Last week I was informed by mem- bers of the committee that m un- favorable report would bo made at the insistence of the state tax com. mlssioner's office. This practically eliminates any possibility of the leg islation being passed so made an appointment with the municipal di- rector of tho commission to ind out why he had singled out Naugntuck of all tho towns and cities applying for such legislation to disapprove.
 "At my meeting with the munici. pal director of the tax commiSsion- CTS office he informed mo that after the introduction of my bill ho sent an agent to Naugatuck to ascertain whether conditions were favorable for the introduction of this change in method of filing assessments,
