Republican national committeeman

Circuit Judge Leland w. Carr, who
has issued three pervious warrants
naming legislators and others on
graft conspiracy charges since he
started an inquiry under Michigan's
one-man grand jury law, signed the
warrant against Mckay and the
others this afternoon and said they
would be given hearings soon.
Today's warrant charged merely
that Mckay, Fftzsimmons and

On Victory Gardens
is Planned for 1945
BY w. III. YOUNGMAN,
Garden Editor OF The Star.

Acting on a proposed 1945 goal Of
18,500,000 Victory gardens. recon-
mended at the National Victory
Garden conference here last week,
representatives of Victory garden
organizations, garden clubs, the hor-
ticultural press and State extension
services are planning a Nationwide
program fully as comprehensive as
that of 1914.
Victory gardens, which produced
about 40 per cent of the vegetables
consumed by the country this year,
will achieve an even greater produc-
ton next year if gardeners capitalize
on their experiences of the past two
years, the conference indicated.
Gardeners were urged to add
fruits where there Is suitable space.
In addition, the conference went on
record as favoring cooperation of
the Department of Agriculture, State
extention services and municipal
governments in employing agricul-
tural agents for large cities to fur
nish home gardeners the same serv-
ice as that now furnished farmers
by county agents.
1t was agreed that there was need
of technical assistance for the
amateur if he is to achieve desirable
results with his vegetable garden as
well as his lawn, flowers and trees.
The part played by school children
in the 1943 and 1914 programs was
praised and the conference expressed
the belief that they should be given
more opportunity to participate in
1945.
In several cities school authorities
include gardening as part of their
science programs and it was recon-
mended that the practice should
be adopted generally.

respect to his memory.

reconstructed amid the hushed dig
nifty of church at it's most solemn

jurors were grouped together in a
corner at the front of the church.

nearly all the defense attorneys
were there.

at his passing and respect for the

carried out thousand errands for
