Approximately 80 more acres of land have been donated for the project this year by other firms and individuals. About 600 needy families in all will be given an opportunity to raise their vegetables on these gardens this year. More than 125,000 quarts of vegetables were canned for winter use from these tracts in 1939. Prospective candidates for the gardens are supplied by the Northeast Community Center and other church and civic organizations. About 75 per cent of the plots have already been allocated.

Changes in the concepts of heart disease have established increased knowledge of its types and causes, it was reported today in a hulletin by the Indiana State. Medical Association. “Probably the most important change is the growing appreciation of the significance of heart disease as a problem in public health,” the bulletin stated.The report showed that heart disease is the greatest killer of the human race. Heart disease, according to the report, causes the death of more than 240 person out of 100,000 each year. Cancer, its closest rival, is responsible for the death of less than half that number, 106 out

of 100,000. The four outstanding causes of heart . disease are rheumatism, syphilis, high blood pressure and

heart disease in persons up to 15 years of age and for about 25 per cent of the cases after that. It is more common in temperate zones than in the tropics, more common in crowded city sections and it runs in families. Syphilis, although educational programs are sponsored to eliminate it, still plays an important role, and is responsible for about 10 per cent of the cases.

THOMAS AGAIN

SOCIALIST NO. 1

Party’s Presidential Choice On Platform Predicated On ‘Tolerance.’

By DANIEL M. IDNEY : Times Staff Writer .

WASHINGTON, April 8.—“Comrades! Comrades! Socialism means tolerance!” | This interpretation of latter-day Marxism was made by the chairman of the national convention of the Socialist Party at the session here yesterday which gave Norman Thomas his fourth nomination for President. Tolerance might well be called the

keynote of the convention, which ends today. Candidate Thomas, in his acceptance speech, pledged that this would not be a campaign of hate and against everything and everybody, but one “for democracy and peace.” The remarks of Chairman Leonard Woodcock of Detroit were in similar vein. .

Admission 25 Cents

The Socialist plan is to bring “plenty, peace and freedom” through “production for use,” but the party tactics are not to be borrowed from those radicals who seem to distort the famous Marxian slogan into— “We Have Nothing to Lose But Our

Tempers!” Mr. Thomas made it clear that the principle reason the Socialists are again sending him forth on his quadrennial “educational campaign” is that it is too late to creat any formidable Farmer-Labor Party in 1940.

At a mass meeting last night, admission 25 cents, Mr. Thomas and Prof. Maynard C. Krueger of the University of Chicago, nominated as Vice President, delivered their initial campaign speeches. College and high school members of the young Socialist organizations took over the convention when the time came for Mr. Thomas to accept the nomination. With red banners bearing the letters “S. P.,” they paraded round and

round the National Press Club audi-.

torium singing “Solidarity Forever” and “Thomas for President,” both to the same tune.

Develop College Yell

Finally they developed a sort of college yell which went like this: “The workers are eager, for Thomas and Krueger!” : A cablegram of greeting from the Socialists of Helsinki was received with acclaim. There also was a teleTam from Socialist Mayor Daniel W. Hoan, who was retired by the Milwaukee voters last Tuesday after nearly a quarter of a century in office. It began: - “Greetings to the National Socialist Convention! It was never so evident that capitalism is bankrupt.” The delegates had to pass through picket lines. Both entrances to the National Press Building were picketed because of a cafeteria labor dispute.

SHAW INSTALLED AS AERO CLUB LEADER

Wilbur Shaw, who will seek his third victory in the 500-mile race Memorial Day, has been installed as president of the Indianapolis Aero Club of more than 100 licensed airplane pilots. The race. driver holds a transport pilot's license. Other new officers of the club which meets at Stout Field are Carl Quillen, vice president; Robert Dietrich, treasurer; Gordon Smith, secretary, and Walter B. Smith, retiring president, chairman of the board of directors. .

Jock Whitneys

RENO, Aprl 8 (U. P.).— Mis. Mary Elizabeth. (Liz) Whitney stepped on to the divorce trail today. Six weeks hence she will become a, legal resident of Nevada and privileged to sue John Hay' (Jock) Whitney, multimillionaire sportsman, for divorce. She arrived last night. Mrs. Whitney refused to comment on reports that Mr. Whitney: had settled $3,000,000 on her, but did say that a property settle-. ment had been arranged. It was presumed that after the divorce she would return to Hollywood, where she has been living for months, playing with the idea of a movie career. Both are members of prominent families. Mr. Whitney and the. former Elizabeth Altemus of Philadelphia society were married Sept. 23, 1931, at Philadelphia.

CHARTER TRAIN

Indiana Democratic Club Will Sponsor Trip To Chicago.

A special train will be chartered by Indiana Democrats to take the Hoosfer delegation to the National Democratic Convention in Chicago July 15, The Indiana Democratic Club, of which Edward W. Hohlt is president, ha: been designated by party. leaders as the organization to handle arrangements for the train. Mr. Hohlt said reservations will not be limited to club members, but will be open to all party members. The club has sponsored delegations to all. national Democratic conventions since 1904.

Editors May Request ‘Unbossed’ Conclave

A resolution urging an “unbossed” State Democratic Convention is: expected to be adopted by the annual Indiana Democratic Editorial Association, meeting here next Safturday. The resolution would follow the recommendations made recently by Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt and State Democratic Chairman Fred F. Bays. Both said they believed the convention should be left open for control by the delegates themselves. Some party leaders. however, have said that an “unbossed” convention is impossible. “Some one has to arrange a slate of candidates for nomination or the ticket might end up in a scrambled mess,” one member of the State Committee said. Principal speaker at the editors’ banquet = Saturday night will be
