VICTORY GARDENS
WILL CONTINUE

Since there will be as much food
needed for local consumption and
shipments abroad, Victory gardens
must continue to be high on the list,
Farm Bureau Cooperative Associa-
ton specialists in Columbus revealed
today. They saw no visible let-up in
the need for food although victory
is months gone.
Aside from the material returns
from the Victory garden, there is
the matter of health to be considered
Most families who spent some of
their time in their gardens during
the war will want to continue that
practice, it was said.
Many city garden enthusiasts have
found that higher yields are their
rewards through proper fertilization
of the soil. If their efforts at first
seemed fruitless, they have found
their ground needed building up and
they should continue to reap rewards
from their compost heaps and add
itional commercial fertilizer.
Adequate supplies of garden fert-
ilizer will be available again this
year, the specialists reported. Most
gardens require the application of
about four pounds per 100 square
feet. In addition to better yields,
most gardens, properly fertilized, will
produce better tasting, highly nutri-
tional vegetables with maximum Wit
imin content and minerals.

that unless the replies from both

Mr.. Ala is expected to sit with the

Court UphoIds Firing
OF Friedman for
Communist Link

( Justice Jennings Bailey of District
Court Yesterday afternoon upheld
/ the right of the Civil Service Com
mission to order the discharge OF
Morton Friedman of Queens. N. Y.
as classification director of the War
Manpower Commission on the
ground he was associated with an
allegedly Communist dominated
group.
In memorandum opinion Justice
Bailey granted Government mo-
ton for summary Judgment and
dismissed a suit brought by MI.
Friedman seeking reinstatement in
the Government service.
Mr.. Friedman, who was discharged
in September, 1914. had received a
letter that he had been separated"
from his position mainly because of
mis- activity with the American Peace
Mobilization organization. which the
letter described as Communist dom
mated.
Justice Bailey said the defendants
members of the Civil Service Com
mission-did not find Mr.. Friedman
disloyal, but merely found that lit
mad a reasonable doubt of his loyal
ty.' Justice Bailey added that the
Civil Service Commission acted
pursuant to the law and that courts
are without jurisdiction to control
its action so long as it complies with
the law"
Referring to the American Peace
Mobilization. Justice Bailey said
there were reasonable grounds to
believe this organization was formed
under auspices of the Communist
party designed to influence the
American people to oppose participa
ton in the war against Germany
within a month after the Ger
man invasion of Russia" he said
Its name was changed to American
Peoples Mobilization and then ia
vored assistance to Britain and Rus
sia in the war against Germany"
| In the original suit former War
Manpower Chairman McNutt was
named as defendant with the mem
bers of the Civil Service Commits
sion. Owing to Mr.. McNutt's resig-
nation and the transfer of most OF
WINGS functions to the Labor De-
partment, Secretary OF Labor Schwel-
/ lenbach was substituted as a defend
ant in Mi McNutt's place
