Stevenson Boy's Body Found Near Gov. Schricker's Home|
~The month-old search for two 8-year-old boys who didn’t come home from play ended late yesterday when police dragging crews re-

of William Stevenson: near the
~.north bank of
Fall creek in front of Governor Schricker’s home. - He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Stevenson, 131 McLean pl. The search was intensified yesterday following the Wm. Stevenson recovery of the body of William Long, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Long, 2235 Kenwood ave. Sunday near the Meridian st. bridge. Two weeks ago police abandoned dragging the creek on the theory that the missing youths were in the : downtown area. The reports proved false and they reinstitutted combing " the creek bottom. : Mr. Stevenson was at the scene when the body was found and identified it as his son. Sergt.

PLOT GARDENS AT SPEEDWAY
Town Board Wants Every Family to Participate In Project.
By VIRGINIA HATFIELD A victory garden for every family in Speedway—be it in the ‘family’s back yard or in a community project—is the goal , of the Speedway town board. . Already more than nine acres of town property at the Speedway water works have been plowed, disced, harrowed, dragged and plotted. On this property, distributed by the town clerk, J. Wayne Baxter, there are 130 lots, 50 by 50 feet. All but two or three are taken and some gardens have
'| been started.
Preparation of the land has been done completely by volunteers. Fletcher F. Ferguson furnished the plow, disc and tractor. Townspeople cleared the property and helped whenever their services were needed. Boy Scouts under the direction of Ivan Hanen, scout master, started a victory garden program at the water works last year. Approximately 70 gardens were planted. Mr. Hanen plotted out the land both last year and this year. Church Sponsors Gardens
Additional town property has been turned over to employees of the Electric Steel Castings Co, located in Speedway. Approximately 50 employees are expected to participate. William Zigmueller will supervise plotting of the land, which soon will be broken. After employees get their plots, they will be “on their own,” according to Mr. Zigmueller. Most of them had gardening experience in a company project during the depression, so will not. be green thumbs at the job. A third community gardening project is being sponsored by St. Christopher church. Twenty-five lots, 35 by 85 feet, are being used by parishioners. The land has been prepared and all but three lots taken. Some gardens already have been .planted. 30 Lots Still Available
Land for victory gardens In Speedway Terrace has been donated by C. W. Henry. It is being distributed by 16-year-old Don Hammer, student at Speedway high school. There are 70 lots, 44 by 149 feet, in the project. Approximately 30 lots are still available. Mr. and Mrs. Alvin R. Dittrich have turned over four lots, 100 by 300 feet, in Eaglebrook Park and all are being used. Mrs. Dittrich’s brother, Hugh Carter, has provided gardeners with 15 lots, 70 by 225 feet, in Eaglewood. These lots are being distributed according to the
lieves he ean handle. @n addition to the six community | projects, about every other home in Speedway will have a garden, if plowed ground is any indication. To aid gardeners, the Speedway Betterment association sponsors educational programs on care of gardens. Experts are asked to speak before the group to give advice on how, what and when to plant. Jack O’Neal is president of the organization. Andther civic group, the Speed-
‘way Lions club, is aiding the Boy
Scouts in planing a victory garden program again this year. Prof. Charles H. Walters is Lions club president. :

WASHINGTON, April 6.—Reports from OPA “Hstening posts throughout the country reveal that the meat rationing point system has slipped painlessly into household economy and the hectic pressure on the butchers has been eased perceptibly. Except for the usual errors in stamp collecting, the system is working smoothly. Because of the point ration system in canned goods and meats, OPA officials foresee a let-up in heavy week-end buying, since housewives can no longer stock up on food.

POINT SCHEDULE OF MEAT MAY GHANGE
WASHINGTON, April 6 (U. P.).— The office of price administration said today it is “quite possible” that there will be a readjustment in the point values required for the purchase of meat. It said, however, that should revision come, it would not be as “revolutionary” as in the case of processed foods when a number of items were reduced as much as 10 points. “Such a range will be impossible in the case of meat,” an OPA spokesman said, “since 80 per cent of the meats sold range between five and eight points. Revision up or down will necessarily be a matter of one or two points.” The spokesman declined to say what the OPA had in mind concerning the readjustment.

Burn Old Weeds To Kill Insects
Many insect pests over-win-tering in debris and weeds, in and around the garden, can be killed by raking and burning the old crop residues before the garden is plowed this spring, according to A. A. Irwin, assistant Marion county agricultural agent. If it’s desirable to leave the old residue to add humus to the soil, then a special effort should be made to plow it under deeply and completely to get rid of as many insects as possible. The destruction of old weeds along. the borders of the garden also will kill many additional insects. Such debris should be broken down, raked away and burned now during the first

- Reported in Hardware
Stores Here.
Lend-lease is just around the corner for you and your neighbor. Faced with a food shortage, the United States government has cried “18,000,000 victory gardens.” To meet the goal, gardeners probably will have to 'share tools. A survey of hardware retailers and wholesalers today showed that a shortage of some garden tools does exist here. Some stores have empty shelves where hoes, rakes, spades and forks used to be. Some expect their stock to be gone within a short time. In cases where stores have tools, the stock usually is unbalanced. There will be spades but no forks, rakes but no spades, forks but no rakes, ete. A check with wholesalers tells the same tale. One pointed out that buyers have bought equipment earlier than usual this year. In any case, victory gardeners should not be alarmed. If garden tools are shared, there should be plenty to go around. Some families now have more than one set of garden fools and could sell or give the extra set away. In community garden projects, the solution should be simple. Everyone does not rake, hoe, dust or spray crops at the same time, so borrowing and lending will be a patriotic necessity.
AT THREE MEETINGS
A. A. TIrwin, assistant Marion county agricultural agent, will lecture at three victory garden meetings this week. He will address a community meeting in Holy Name church (Beech Grove) at 8 o'clock tonight. Mrs. Katherine Wakeland fade arrangements for the meetNg. At 8 p. m. tomorrow, Mr. Irwin will be guest speaker for the Christamore Garden club, meeting at Christmore house, W. Michigan st.

The fourth in a series of six lectures on gardening at the Indiana university extension center, 122 E, Michigan st., will be given by Mr, Irwin at 7 p. m. Thursday. Topic for the class will be the tender vegetable crop. Tomatoes, beans, sweet corn, peppers, cucumbers, sweet potatoes and squash will be discussed.

Not Impressed With Poll
FOR THE MOST part, the Hoosier G. O. P. leaders aren't
particularly impressed with the
recent poll of the state's Republican precinct committeemen by the bitterly anti-Willkie Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel. Only 1600 some precinct come mitteemen of the 8000 questioned sent in replies. Of those replying to the questionnaire, the Ft. Wayne paper reported that. 88.1 per cent were against Mr, Willkie. “I don’t quite know how to interpret the poll,” commented one prominent G. O. P., leader who is not pro-Willkie, “but I do know that Willkie is much more popular in this state than was indicated by the announced results of the poll.”
Legal Troubles
THE RECENT G. O. P.~controlled legislature refused to pass any laws giving - the administrative branch of the state government power to suspend laws to further the war effort. And there has been a repercussion already. The Southern Indiana Gas & Electric Co. at Evansville, which furnished power to more than 50 important: war industries, is operating at practically peak capacity and the war production board has asked the utility to ar range to get power from other plants so that these industries won't have to shut down in case of an, accident. Several non-utility power producers in the Evansville region —such as the power plants owned by mining companies—have indicated their willingness to furnish the extra power, but they don’t want to be subject to the strict public utility laws of Indiana.

And there is nothing the state 3 public service commission mems= bers can do to suspend the laws and thus assist the Evansville utility to get the added power. They have no power to chiange the law.
