HEALTH AID SEEN IN VICTORY GARDENS

Food rationing and the resultant cultivation of victory gardens may be beneficial to public health, Dr. Herman G. Morgan, city health board secretary, told members of the Universal club yesterday at the Columbia club. Consumption of fresher vegetables and. exercise expended in working garden plots probably will overcome many nutritional handicaps imposed by rationing, he declared.

by restrictions on food distribution, said Dr. Morgan, adding that “oveteating and careless dieting always have been causes of ill health.” Americans will find it hardest to adapt themselves to the diminishing meat supply, he said, since this country has always been a major meat-consuming nation. Dairy products probably will be the last to be rationed to the civilian population, Dr. Morgan believes, inasmuch as they are essential in infant and child food programs.

mayoral election. Kelly and McKibbin, both candidates of their party organizations, were decisive winners in yesterday's primary elections. Kelly polled 78.8 per cent of the Democratic vote; McKibbin received 76.3 per cent of the Republican ballots. Both candidates carried all 50 of the city’s election wards.

Less Than Half Vote

The voting was the lightest and quietest in years with less than half of the city’s 1,780,000 registered voters turning out. The light vote was believed to have aided the machine candidates. Apparently relying on the strength of the Kelly-Nash city hall machine, the incumbent mayor did not conduct a vigorous campaign, although
