today to be considering Edward

longtime figure in the American
Federation of Labor, has been in
charge of labor relations for the
Radio Corp. of America and is
serving in this war as special
labor conSultant 10 the secretary
of war.
Whether McGrady or some one
else gets the job. one thing is
sure. one Of the first cabinet
members TO 60 will be the present
secretary of labor. Frances Per-
kinS. McGrady, according to re-
liable information. is acceptable
to the AF'L. The Go may not
be quite so agreeable, but some of
Mr.. Truman close associates
say this factor will not influence
the appointment.
If this analysis is correct. II

about the current White House
stature of the CLOS Political
Action Committee. This organi-
zation had a strong White House
position in the time OF Mr..
Roosevelt, primarily because Of
the heavy burden it carried dur

In a recent interview, Secretary
of Agriculture Claude R. Wick

when they asked him whether or
not to grow a garden in 1945. Here
are excerpts from his answer:
Il tell them that Victory gar
dens are going to be just as impor-
tant this year as they were last
year. Victory gardening is more
than a patriotic hobby, it is a
wartime necessity and vital part
of our food program. We should
not forget that food is still a vital
war weapon, and powerful peace
force. That is why farm and city
people alike are being asked to
grow Victory gardens again this
year.
