Plan* for a tour of the various sub sistence gardens by member* of the National Education Association will be made this afternoon at a meeting in Adams School. Detailed arrange ments for the tour, which is scheduled for July 25, will be worked out by rep tesentatives of the organisation and members of the Advisory Committee co-operating with the emergency re lief division in carrying on the gar dens project. Meanwhile, members of the commit tee appointed to distribute the $200 in prizes offered by The Star for the best gardens already have made their first inspection of the half dozen tracts under development. Best Gardens Selected. The first and second best gardens on each tract have been designated by signs painted by th: vocational class of Powell Junior High School. Unless the gardens are kept in out standing condition, however, the signs may be changed from month to month, as the committee will make additional tours on the 15th of July, August and September. " The best season-round gardens will get the awards," explained Miss Mary Edith Coulson, welfare and recrea tion secretary of the Council of Social Agencies and a member of the Advi sory Committee. "Just as in base ball, a home run now and then won't count for nearly so much as a top notch batting average for the entire season." First Prise Is $15. Members of the Judging Committee are William R. Beattie, Agriculture Department horticulturist; Thomas Higgins and George Marvin. Prizes of *15 and $10 for the first and second best gardens on each of the tracts will be awarded at the end of the season, after the September In spection.

Brooke, prominent society matron and social worker, is composed of representatives of the Emergency Relief Division, the Coun cil of Social Agencies and the Dis trict Work Planning Committee. R. L.

France's new economic measures so far have not been reflected in Im proved business conditions. INSTITUTE MS TO BELAUNCUED Prof. Westerfield, Monetary Policy Committee Head, Arrives for Work. Pro/. Ray B. Westerfleld of Yale University, president of the Econo mists' National Committee on Mone tary Policy, has come to Washington to establish headquarters for an or ganization to be known as the Income Extension Institute. The institute, according to Prof. Westerfleld, is to be extended to a Nation-wide basis for the purpose of opposing the present trend of de pendence upon the Government for charitable relief and security against old age and the time of need, and to restore a popultr belief in thrift on the part of the Nation and of the in dividual. State Charity Inequitable. The Yale economist declared that "State charity is inequitable, every industry and institution being morally obligated not only to pay wages that afford workers a decent living, but to provide for old age security and the other ills of life." His plan to meet the problem is a system of automatic saving and the conversion of the savings into safe annuities that will provide for retirement at the age of 60 with an adquate income for the average person To do this. Prof. Westerfleld said, the Government should provide for the sale of savings certificates and annuities in which wage earners and others skeptical of present insurance companies could invest. He believes also that present pension schemes are deficient and should be extensively revised and overhauled. Number of Associations. Associated with the professor here will be Herbert N. Fell, veteran in surance man of New York, and a number of persons interested in social legislation and welfare. The Economists' National Com mittee on Monetary Policy, which was organized by Prof. Weatfrfleld, was active in a campaign to influence Congress and the Roosevelt adminis tration to follow a conservative mone tary policy. The new Income Ex tension Institute likewise will be a propaganda organization.
