Institute, Inc.

Dear Mr.. Wing:
Victory Gardeners 1 feel made
a notable contribution to victory
itself. The United States almost
uniquely among nations enjoys
plenty whereas almost all the rest
OF the world will suffer real priva-
ton during this winter.
I don t profess TO know how much
or to what degree American food
can be used to relieve the distress
Of the world. I am sure, however,
that our humanitarian impulses
will have a greater opportunity Of
becoming fact if the American Vic
tory Gardener plans next year to
produce food.
Sincerely yours,
c. NJ. Chester.
