 Meanwhile the boards have been screening over the 26 and under age group for whom immediate in- duction is slated, unless they arc proven to be essential within those IA essential industries classified by federal selective service authorities, this week, as the only deferrahle industries for this age group.
 Just how long the temporary post ponement of inductions for the 26 and over group will hold it has not been officially disclosed. Specula- tion estimated it at the most to be period lasting from 30 days to 90 days.
 No further clarification of the recent draft directive had been re- ceived this morning by local boards from either Washington or state selective service headquarters. The boards, 1t is understood, are eagerly awaiting some claraification as to just what occupations fall within the classification of war support ing activities"
 At this weeks meetings local boards 15-B and 16-A decided upon a blanket deferment for all men over 26 while boards 15-A and 16-B will induct few they have deemed not occupied within war support ing activities" InducteeS of this months quotas will leave next week.

Hartford, Conn, April 14.-(UP) State Personnel Director Glendon A. Scaboria said today that occu- pational defermen;s would not be sought for any state employe under 26 years of age, regardless of the importance of their duties.
 Of the 13,000 state workers, Sea- boria said approximately 2000 now were in the services, and consid- erable number of others probably would be called upon soon.
 The local draft situation affecting men 26 and over remained the same today as that reported yester- day with two Of the local boards deciding upon temporary blanket deferments" for all men over 2e despite their occupational status and other two having weeded out a few draftees who will be inducted next week, as scheduled.

 Urges Early Planting

wire. Where wire is to be used for garden purposes MT. Wilkinson ad- vises gardeners to get orders in ear ly.
 As to depth of blowing or spad- ing for the home garden MT. Will kinson advises turning as deep as the topsoil will permit, which in many cases will not be more than six inches. Commercial growers who have added humus to the soil over period of years often prefer to blow nine to ten inches deep. By adding manure or compost material each year home gardeners may in- crease the depth of blowing or spading. In no cases should plow- ing be done deeply into the subson.
 Growers can tell whether the soil is dry enough to work by squeezing 8 handful. If the soil remains in a ball the soil is too wet to work.

Pertinent advice for victory gar- deners has been forwarded to To- cal officials by Prof. A. E. Wilkin- son of the University of Connecti- cut recent speaker here at gar den committee conference. Bernard A. Mcdonald and Mrs. Flora Allan co-chairrnan of the local commit tee have urged early preparation now by victory gardeners
 Except in some hill sections of Connecticut frost is out of the ground and peas should be planted at once, says Professor A. E. Will kinson vegetable gardening special ist for the Extension Service, Uni versity of Connecticut.
 Peas are a cool season crop and the earlier they can be planted, the better, said MT. Wilkinson. Peas will stand more frost than most crops and early planted peas usual ly give the largest yields. When the frost Is out of the ground suf- ficiently to blow or spade the gar den the grower can feel s"fe in making the first planting.
 Peas need lime and MT. Wilkinson recommends about twelve quarts of ground limestone to 100 feet of row. The lime should be applied along the row and raked or narrowed in. A line is then stretched across the garden to indicate the row and a small furrow about one inch deep is opened under the line. Seeds are streWn in the row at rate of twelve to fifteen seeds to the foo. Soil is then raked over the furroW.
 Root rot is common in Connecti- cut and as nitrogen increases the rot MT. Wilkinson advises against ap- plying fertiliz until the plants are from three to five inches high. Even then 1t is best not to use high nitrogen fertilizer.
 Of the early dwarf varieties MT. Wilkinson recommends Laxton's Progress or Hundredfold. The pre- ferred early tall variety is Worlds Record, also called Early Gradus. A week to ten days after the first planting second rlanting may be made of the early types or in case of tall varieties either the Gradus or Thomas Laxton may be substi- tuted. For late peas Alderman, also called Improved Telephone, is sug- gested. This grows to consider able height, six to eight feet and requires sturdy support of brush or

"No one can fathom what the milk administration is trying to do," the defense counsel stated.
 Comments made by Judge John A. Cornell last Oct. 6, when he gave Tosum a one-day suspended jail sentence for violating the milk laws. were read by Attorney Lawlor. Judge Cornell at that time called the law socialistic and not in &C., cord with our ideals and institu- tions."
 Attorney Corkey claimed the milk dealers demurrer was general and no specification was given on sta tutes relied upon in his claims that the milk laws are unreasonable. He refuted a claim of the defense that proper notice Is not given on chang es in the law by stating that news paper notices are carried when changes are made and the new rules are widely posted.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-04-14

Charges were made by Attorney William K. Lawlor, counsel for To- sum, that the milk law is unreason- able and oppressive, and that !t at- teInpts to regulate trade.
 At the start of he proceedings Judge Quinlan referred to the State Milk Act as "one of those forward looking laws" Later he asked As- sistant Attorney General R. F. Cor key, who represented the milk ad- ministrator, whether or not the particular statute relied on in the proceedings gives the milk admin fstrator the right to make regula- tions When the lawyer replied in the affirmative, the jurist smilingly commented That's what you say," and asked the milk dealers counsel to proceed.
 Tosum is charged by the milk ad- ministrator with underpaying sev- eral producers who furnished him milk. The underpayments total ap- proXimately $4,O00, according to computations filed in the court. The state seeks recovery of that amount, and has notified the court the sum will be turned over to the produc- CTS when paid.
 Attorney Lawlor claimed the price paid by his client to the producers was satisfactory to them and that 1t was even higher than that paid by other dealers who followed the milk administrators rules on weigh ing and measuring milk. He said his client IS unfamiliar with the procedure outlined by the state in weighing the milk and measuring the amount of butterfat and keep ing detailed books.
 The defense counsel said his client hired Wolcott teacher to as- sist him in unraveling the meaning of the state milk regulations and that after three trips to Hartford and numerous attemps to sraigh- en out his books in accordance with state requirements she "threw up her hand" and left the task.

 ments By Plaintiff
