ed so rapidly that the country can
not supply the demand"
Quotes Truman
Thomas said the report OF the
Truman Committee, which declared
war production has reached such
rotals that production OF civilian
goods should be expanded, is in
line with the movement.
Because of reports OF idleness of
workers in many communities, due
to cut-backs in production. Thomas
said that the pressure in Congress
for broadening OF civilian goods
manufactures is growing.
They have a civilian priorties
board in the WPB, but l think
when they don't want something
done they just refer it to this
board and il doesn't make "a re-
port" he declared. ~
Thomas added senators in the
movement do not want TO take ma
terial needed for the war effort.
The War Food Administrator would
have to find that the projects could
be undertaken without doing this,
and that manpower Is available.

Interesting Pictures Viewed
By Members Of Garden Club

A varied and interesting program
was enjoyed by the members OF the
Ypsilanti Garden Club at the regu,
lar meeting in Starkweather Hall
Monday evening. John Sellers
showed beautiful colored slides OF
his own making taken in outstand'
ing gardens in Ypsianti and yicin-
fly. OF special interest aud beauty
were his slides OF individual speci-
mems OF flowers and closeups OF
groups OF plants. His series Of pic
lures OF making a cement garden
path in his own yard provided an
amusing as well as instructive
touch.
The main topic OF the program
was Michigan perennials and Mrs.
Mac Begole gave a paper related 10
this subject in which she described
the history and culture OF dolphin
ium. She stated that although del
phinium is not native OF Mich
igan she had chosen TO discuss II
because II has become q permanent
part of so many gardens. Mrs. Be
COLE traced the origin OF the name
'delphinium" back to Greek myth
ology and described the develop
ment of the flower by hort!cultur-
lists in England and in this country
and spoke OF the attempt OF those
working with the plant TO produce
a scented variety.
c. j. Berno gave a most interest
ing short talk on a wild flower ma.
tive TO Michigan, the butterfly bush.
He said that he had chosen 10
speak OF this particular flower be-
cause IL is considered TO be the
handsomest wild flower of its partic-
ular color in the country, and also
because 1t is easily grown and is
adaptable TO the home flower gar
den. He recommended it as a beau
tiful spot OF color for the perennial
border and well worth cultivation.
Native wild flowers was also the
topic chosen by Walter Dixon. Mr..
Dixon is also an advocate OF the
cultivation OF wild flowers and
urged their inclusion in the peren-
NAL garden. He described his ex-
perlences IN collecting specimens
for his own wild flower garden and
said that by using great care in
transplanting them, many wild
flowers can be cultivated and there
by saved from determination
Among those easily adapted to the
home garden-Mr. Dixon named tril-
lium, jackin.the-pulpit, hepatica,
blue flag, wild columbine, mana
drake blood root. violets and lady
slippers,
Both Mr.. Berno and Mr.. Dixon
made an appeal TO save the wild
flowers. They stressed the fact
that many native flowers are fast
disappearing particularly the tril-
lium which is destroyed when It is
picked.
