By Gretchen Smith

A resolution supporting the Sum-
newspaper proposal for a consti-
tutional amendment empowering
Congress to provide national repre-
sentation for the District was passed
by the District Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs at a meeting yesterday.
Only five members voiced disap-
proval of the resolution, which the
federation hopes will be adopted by
the general federation at its next
council meeting.
Drawn up by Miss Cornelia Hill,
the resolution was presented by Miss
Marie E. Downey, chairman of reso-
lutions. Strong arguments support
ing the proposals in the bill were
advanced by Mrs. Harvey w. Wiley
and Mrs. Edgar Merritt, past presi-
dents of the District federation. Op-
ponents included Mrs. E. Morgan
Pryse and Mrs. Ernest w. Howard
members of the department of legis-
lation.
A resolution also was adopted urg-
ing the Special Committee on Juve-
nile Conservation appointed by the
general federation to take imme-
diate steps in investigating and cor
recting reported conditions in coun-
ty jails and warehouses; used for the
detention OF juveniles. Based on a
recent article in a national woman s
publication, the report given at the
meeting by Mrs. Leslie B. Wright,
chairman Of legislation. presented a
distressing picture Of filth and dis
ease, in vermin- ridden buildings in
many parts of the country. Mrs.
Wright proposed that the special
committee urge that the District
Juvenile Court be opened to the
public instead of functioning under a
closed program as exists at present.

Kings Fashionable Estate
Made a Victory Garden

King Georges Victory Garden"
was harvested after very sue
cessful season.
The garden was on his estate at
Sandringham, Norfolk, where, as all
over Britain, every available acre
has been converted to farmland.
The golf course, for instance, was
plowed up for a large crop OF oats;
six acres Of lawn in front of the
house itself were under crop OF
rye; and where brightly colored
flowers once filed ornamental beds,
beets and parsnips now grow.
Thanks to comprehensive PLAN
ming, carried out with the help of the
Norfolk agricultural committee, the
kings estate showed heavy yields:
potatoes gave up to II tons an acre
and wheat 60 to 70 bushels an acre.
Altogether, 1,433 acres were
farmed, of which 977 were under the
pillow; Of these OFT, some 500 were
added after the war started. Most
impressive section of the newly
plowed land was the 476 acres which
have been reclaimed from the Sand
bingham marshes. Reclamation has
involved extensive ditching and
draining operations, but the land is
now producing potatoes, peas, beans,
mustard, wheat and oats.
