Denver, Colo., April 28. (United Press) Colorado, early to act when the importance of the bread basket's part in the war became known, has virtually completed organizing the administrative machinery for the biggest "food drive" in the history of the country. Immediately following the declaration of war, Gov. J. C. Gunter anticipated the national movement by naming a ASK FOR MCCARTHY'S IMPERIAL CIGARS MBPBbSM 3 J V ways and means committee, headed by J. K. Mullen, presi dent of the Colorado 'Milling and Elevator Company, and Ex-Gov. Amnions, one of the state's largest farmers. The committee already has completed organization of a subcommittee in every county of the state. Working on the assumption that money, or its equivalent credit, is the greatest need of farmers to meet the crisis, the com mittee has assured farmers capital with which to finance their food-raising operations. . The home gardening movement was given tremendous momentum by the outbreak of war. The Civic and Com mercial Association of Denver is urging a movement whereby employers will agree to pay full wages to em ployes, but allow them one working day off each week, provided they work their gardens on that day. Under the auspices of the Denver Mothers' congress, 50,000 packages of seeds are being distributed without cost to school children. - Mis. Cecilia Ward Shea, a prominent civic worker, has inaugurated a project, advocating that the state itself turn farmer, and lease or rent approximately 15,000,000 acres of tillable land in the state which has never been cultivated, sub-letting this to families who would come into the state, she believes, if they were assured of ground to farm, at a low rental.
