Gr0tOn Chamber of Commerce, GrOtOn, Connecticut
 Dear Sir:
 While talking to a government man from Washington, D. c. I was informed that if the Govern ment was petitioned for land for Victory Gardens and for free beach, it could be had for the ask ing, for the families of defense workers and service people.
 There is plenty of available land including the golf course for Vic- tory Gardens, and with the rising cost of fresh vegetables and other necessities of life in this vicinity, victory Garden is mandatory of the health of these people (who are the ones who will win or lose this war; is to be maintained. At present most of the big farms in this vicinity have been ploWed under for reasons of defense or lack of help. This and the fact that there are more people living here, making the food problem one of considerable importance. The golf course will in all probability not be used this year for golf, as the club house has already been taken over by the army. Part of the golf course could be used for Victory Gardens, as it has good soil and is within walking distance of the Eastern Point Federal Hous- ing Development project.
 Do to lack of amusement facili- ties, the defense workers and ser- vice people, should petition the U. s. Government for Shennecossett Beach. Since the hurricane, the beach assn took over Tyler Beach, which joins Shennecossett Beach for the main purpose of keeping the public from Shennecossett. At one time the beach was used as an attraction for summer visitors maintaining homes at Eastern Point. This era of summer visitors is over. People are selling their property now to local people. With the advent of war industries and the housing developments, the old estates are disappearing.
 Shennecossett is the only beach available for bathing purposes as with the gasoline problem, the out of town beaches are out of the question. With Shennecossett free beach, people could walk or bi- cycle with their families. Bath ing and sun are two valuable health builders and will be es- pecially appreciated by those on night shifts who can find little amusement in their working hours and by our children, who will be of the post war world.
 Anyone who can spend their free time in healthful profitable n11rSllifS iS a. hanpier DerSon and

the ClarkSOn IN. " College OF
Technology and the Chrysler Insti-
tute of Engineering and former
University of Chicago economist
gave his views on the future at a
meeting last night of the Chicago
section of the American Chemical
Society.
He said the perfect man" will
owe his development to tremendous
strides about to be taken in the
medical, chemical and dietary SCI
ences, and in the fields of good liv-
ing.
He predicted that soon after the
war there will be millions of new
houses that cost 1900 and contain
dozens of new developments. These,
he added, eventually may include
unbreakable glass plumbing; fill
ters that transform noises from out
side into music inside; refrigerators
that have everything, including
murals, and a living room that can
be redecorated completely by press
ing button.
Thanks to the genius of applied
science" DR.. Thomas said, "a myriad
OF new comforts and conveniences
for the home and amazing equip
ment for farm and factory will be
developed from research for the

The Week in ReIioion
BY Religious News Service.

What Is believed to be the first
propaganda-free summary of the
status of the Christian churches in
Japan was prepared this week by a
group of missionary repatriates re-
Gently arrived in this country aboard
the Swedish exchange liner Grips
holm. The report was compiled at
the request of the Committee on
East Asia of the Foreign Missions
Conference.
The report reveals that every
phase of Protestant activity in Japan
is now being co-ordinated through
eight boards" functioning under the
two-year-old United Church of
Christ in Japan.
The Church of Christ in Japan,
the report emphasizes, is an "out-
and-out" union representing AZ diff
ferent church groups. One of the
last major denominations to affiliate
with the united church was the
Japan Seikokwai (Anglican-Epis-
copaD Church. Only the Seventh
Day Adventists and small number
of local independent churches re-
main outside the frame work of the
union. They function under local
police Jurisdiction.
The exact relationship of the
YMCA and YWCA, the WCTU, the
Japan Bible Society, the Railway
YMCA, and the Christian Educa-
tional Association to the Church of
Christ is not known at present, the
report states. 1t adds, however, that
these bodies are believed to be
"aggressively" carrying on their
work at home and among Japanese
on the continent.
/ Like the Roman Catholic Church,
the United Protestant Church has
been granted charter by the Jap
anese Department of Education.
Status of the Greek Orthodox
Church is not known, other than the
fact that it has not received a
charter because of "internal diff
culties."
The report also discloses that
Protestants and Catholics in Japan
have joined forces to present a
united front wherever possible. The
japanese National Christian Coun-
Gil has been reorganized to include
both the Catholic and Protestant
churches. Heretofore, the council
was Protestant body.
