 PLANS UNDERWAY
James Linsley Named Chief of Corps AIleviating
 Mrs. Peoples Burden

Naugatuck, Jan. 11-Plans for vic- tory gardens in Naugatuck this spring are being made by Donald G. Macvicar, commander of the service division, War council. It was an- nounced today James L. Linsley has been appointed chief of the victory garden corps. MT. Linsley was assist ant chief last summer.
 MT. MacVicar also announced that Mrs Clifford A. Teeple was named chief of the land army corps. Dur ing the past summer, she handled both positions creditably with MT. Linsley as her assistant. Because both positions require a great deal of time and effort, it has been de- cided to relieve Mrs. Teeple of some of the work by having MT. Linsley placed in charge of the victory gar- den corps.
 As there will be more need of vic- otry gardens this spring, residents who did not plant the past summer are asked to do so. Detailed plans for the spring planting are now be- ing worked out by MT. MacVicar.

Tax Bill Cost 10 Maryland
Estimated at 100000
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, April 1.-State Con-
troller J. Willard Tawes estimates
the Maryland Treasury would lose
approximately 100000 annually if
Federal employees are exempted
from paying State income tax.
A House-approved bill provides
that the salary Of a United States
employee or officer would be subject
to State income tax only In a
State where he maintained a legal
residence.
Mr.. Tawes contends that the bill,
If passed, would give preference to
Federal employees living in Maryland
temporarily, but maintaining legal
residence In another State.
Deputy Controller Joseph O'C.
McCusker expressed doubt of the
constitutionality of such a law,
while Mr.. Tawes said the act, If
passed, would in effect amend Mary
land income tax law and only the
State Legislature has the power to
change State law.
