Abbo+i Reports Borough Steam Boilers in Good Condition— Maloney Joins Marines.

Belmar’s water department plant, which operates with Diesel engines, can be converted to steam boilers in the event of an emergency, it was reported at Tuesday’s meeting of the borough commissioners by Mayor Leon T. Abbott who is also head o f the water department.

The report was made in connection with receipt of a certificate from the Hartford Steam Boiler company which stated an examination made of the steam boilers showed them to be in satisfactory condition.

The mayor said that in the event of an acurate oil shortage affecting the water plant he wanted to be certain that the steam boiler esuipment would be ready for use and had ordered a survey. Whatever parts were needed have been obtained, some with j difficulty, and the plant is ready for j conversion. J

The mayor reported that Officer j John Maloney of the police depart- j ment had been accepted for enlistment [ in the Marnes and would be the j fourth police officer to enter military j service.

Sunday Designated "Go-to-Church" Day

Local Jewry Observes Fast for Nazi Victims

A day of fast and prayer was observed Wednesday by Jews throughout the world as a memorial to the 2,000,000 Jews reported killed in Nazi-dominated Europe.

Services were conducted at Congregation Sons of Israel synagog on Eleventh avenue by Rabbi Isaac Paru, after which a resolution was sent to President Roosevelt asking the American government to formally protest the Nazi atrocities.

time community nurse.Commissioner Carl W. Schroeder

said the Kelly Construction company planned to build 12 bungalows in the River street section of Wall township adjoining the borough line at Sixteenth avenue and the highway, and offered to pay the cost of extending a borough sewer line 200 feet to the property. The commission decided to consult Wall township about the matter in the hope that an arrangement can be made for collection of sewer rents if the extension is made.

Commissioner Schroeder asked what plans the borough would adopt this year for Christmas decorations on F street. No lights will be permitted, which rules out the usual display, and after a discussion it was decided to erect appropriate signs or decorations at Fifth avenue and Sixteenth avenue and in the center of town, but the principal display will be at the Honor Roll at Memorial field.

Mayor Abbott said the borough would places a Christmas greeting advertisement in next week’s edition of The Coast Advertiser in order to extend holiday greetings to Belmar. men in service who receive the paper each week. The Honor Roll will be reproduced in a photograph in order that men away from home can see what has been done in their honor.

The commission expressed its thanks for a Christmas greeting received from the Rev. John Welsh of Mana- squan, former pastor of St. Rose church, who has sent the commission a Christmas greeting card every year since his transfer from Belmar in 1935.

Council Balks on New Liquor Hours

South Belmar Retains 10 A. M. Sunday Opening, Citing Clean Record.

South Belmar council balked Tuesday evening at a suggestion of Alfred E. Driscoll, state alcoholic beverage commissioner, that Sunday opening hour for liquor sales be changed from 10 a. m. to 12 noon when some members observed that South Belmar had practically a spotless record for liquor offenses, and had adopted earlier closing hours before other communities had taken similar action.

Councilman Richard Riggs expressed opposition to any change in the opening hour, and declared that “when others were staying open we were closing on time.” Mayor Frank E. Herbert supported him, stating that “we have never had any trouble because of our opening hour, and in fact we haven’t had any trouble at all.”

Acquisition Includes Former Yacht Club Building and Piers for Berthing Boats.

Belmar Marine Basin, the borough’s: $300,000 harbor for small boats, was. converted to the war effort Tuesday,, it was announced by Thomas Procter,, lessee of the basin.

The announcement was confirmed! by the New York office of the Coast. Guard, which said that while final approval of the basin lease was awaiting, confirmation at Washington the details- were expected to be completed soon.

Mr. Proctor said the Coast GuarcS had requesitioned the former Belmac- Yacht club building, which was converted into the Anchorage restaurant:, last summer, and “expects to take' over Piers 2 and 3 and portions of the basin extending from the easterly line and in a northerly and southerly direction approximately 950 feet.”

He said the Coast Guard “may wishs: to enclose the basin in order to keep, civilians away from the docks where they expect to berth a number of: boats.”

Reports have been current for some time, Mayor Leon T. Abbott said, that the Coast Guard would requisition the borough-owned property which was leased to Procter in 1939. Piers 2 and.’3 are the center piers where boats are now docked, including part of the.- Coast Guard reserve fleet. The outer* piers would not be affected. One is occupied by Pat and Sandy Breslin, rowboat concessionaires at the basin, and the other is used to berth craft, belonging to Procter and the catboat. of the Monmouth Sea Scouts.

The .basin was opened in 1936 but not completed until 1939. In 1941 the former yacht club building was moved down-stream to provide restaurant facilities. For two years the basin was the scene of the Atlantic tuna tournament. It is ideal as a small boat harbor, ranking with the state’s yacht

Reports Police Pension Fund in Good Condition

Belmar’s police pension fund, established in 1929, is in a good condition, Borough Clerk James A. Joeck reported to the borough commission Tuesday.

Mr. Joeck said that since 1929 a total of $30,499 has been paid into the fund and $25,283 has been paid out.

The $30,499 is made up of $19,588 paid by taxpayers in the form o f annual budget appropriations, $8,462 paid by members of the police department in the form of salary deductions and the balance in miscellaneous revenue.

Under a new state law regular members of the department who are eligible for pensions and who enter military service will not have their pensions jeopardized, since the law requires the borough to pay the share of the police officers while they are in service.

The borough has also followed a practice o f adopting resolutions granting leave o f absence to regular members of the department when they enter service, thereby protecting their tenure sights and restoring them to the department upon honorable discharge from the army, navy, marine corps or coast guard.

Kiwanis club is again sponsoring this excellent project. The date is this Sunday, Dec. 6th, and every citizen in Belmar is asked to cooperate in the fine American tradition and “attend the church of their choice”.

During the two years of the “Go-to- Church Movement” the Calvary Baptist, First Methodist and First Presbyterian churches have all installed new chancels. The Catholic church has a very beautiful edifice and together with the fine synagogue, Belmar presents one of the finest opportunities for worship along the New Jersey coast.

The chairman of the “Go-to-Church Day”, I. Newton Williams, urges all citizens to appreciate their privilege of freedom of worship, for which American boys are dying in this very day, by attending the church of their choice. If this and other freedoms are worthy of the very life blood of American boys, then they are worthy of full home front support. Our nation is one of the very few places in the world where this freedom may be exercised. The greatest eri-emy of our freedoms is our neglect of them. Let the people of Belmar show to the enemies of freedom that we can exercise our freedom of worship, even in time of war.

The government employes, both civilian and in the armed forces, in the community, are especially invited to join in this grand American privilege on this “Go-to-Church Day”.

The various churches and their locations are as follows: Calvary Baptist, 11th and E, 11:00 and 7:30; First Methodist, 7th and D, 11:00 and 7:30; First Presbyterian, 9th and E, 11:00; Roman Catholic, 7th and D, 7, 8:30, 10, 11; Colored Baptist, 9th, 11 and 8, and Synagogue, 11th and D, Saturday 9-11, 5. The churches join in a cordial invitation to all to join in this great day.

practice which hampers snow removal, had met with good results except in one or two instances. Police have been posting notices on cars parked on the streets all night asking owners to abate the practice in order that snow can be removed from curb to curb in the event of a heavy fall. Councilman Riggs said one man told him he wouldn’t move his car, and Mayor Herbert suggested that the law be enforced in this case.

Reports of Mrs. Belle Woolley, collector and treasurer, showed adequate balances in all budget items for the remainder of the year. Mayor Herbert said the council should have a surplus for 1942 and declared a conference would be held soon on the 1943 budget. The financial outlook for next year is favorable, he added.

Owen Dunfee, borough superintendent, was advised to start the flushing of sewers this month, a job which will be undertaken now while funds are available. The borough system will be checked throughout.

Councilman Charles Schulz said a drain would be installed at Lake Como with cooperation of Spring Lake officials, the latter community furnishing labor and South Belmar the materials. The work is part of the plan of beautifying the head of Lake Como.

The council voted to purchase five units of blood plasma in the civilian blood bank sponsored by the Kiwanis clubs at a cost of $25, the plasma to be available in emergencies for South Belmar residents.

Mayor Herbert commented on the successful test of civilian defense workers last Friday by state officials, saying the officials found South Belmar had an organization “second to none in the state.”

Councilman Fred Schuler offered a resolution of condolence in the death of Freeholder Joseph Mayer, which was adopted, and a copy was ordered sent to Mrs. Mayer.

THE COAST ADVERTISER, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1942APPROVE FUEL O IL O N CREDIT

NEWARK—With the fuel oil “coupon credit” arrangement extended to December 10, all householders who have not received their fuel oil and kerosene ration coupons from rationing boards may continue until that date to purchase needed fuel oil and kerosene upon promise to turn over to the dealer sufficient coupons to cover such purchases. This was announced here by the office of James Kerney, jr., state director of the Office of Price Administration.

All “credit” purchases made from October 1, when fuel oil and kerosene rationing went into effect, were made with the agreement to surrender to the dealer the proper number of coupons as soon as the coupons were issued. Most householders have received their coupons, OPA declared.

On and after yesterday both Period One and Period Two fuel coupons, each worth 10 gallons, may be used to cover all credit purchases since October 1.New Ration Book Due

With coffee rationing in its first week, state rationing officials notified consumers who have not registered for War Ration Book One to register by December 15 with the local rationing board. War Ration Book One, it was pointed out, besides being used in coffee rationing will also be used to issue sugar Ration Book Two and may be used to ration other commodities. It is therefore essential, OPA pointed put, that every individual have a War Ration Book One regardless of whether or not he buys sugar or coffee. Nobody will be able to obtain War Ration Book Two unless he has War Ration Book One.

Among those who do not have a copy of War Ration Book One, it was explained, are those who have not registered, those who have registered and have not been given books because they had excess supplies of sugar, and those who have surrendered their books to local boards for one reason or another as required by the regulations.

State OPA headquarters also issued a bulletin of instructions to guide motorists in the opening phase of m ile-1 age rationing which went into effect this week. Outstanding among the changed gasoline and tire rationing requirements are the compulsory periodic tire inspection provision, broadened tire eligibility rules for passenger cars, compulsory transportation committees to handle gasoline applications in all industrial plants employing 100 or more workers, and substitution of “T” rations for “S” ration books for commercial vehicles, with ODT certificates of war necessity controlling mileage of all commercial vehicles. Also, ecective as of last week, is the “write-in” provision which requires the motorist to enter in ink on the back of each gasoline ration stamp the license number of the vehicle and the state of registration.

In outlining instructions for mileage rationing, state officials pointed out that the official OPA tire inspection stations would comb out those tires which need replacement or recappisg and would send the owners of such tires to the rationing board to make application for the proper replacement or recapping service. Instructions were outlined as follows:

1. All passenger car owners, who have not yet done so, must register with a rationing board and receive a

M O R A L E FO R H E A L T HDid our pioneer great-grand

mothers grumble when they strug- gled to make tempting dishes from the limited food available in their locality? If they did, their neighbors failed to report it. Perhaps they lived too far away.

The grandmothers of tomorrow are faced with a similar problem today. They, however, are not in n,e. helpless predicament of solving their problems alone as the earlier •settlers did, for everywhere you turn ideas are being offered. The nutritionists of the country are doing their patriotic duty in suggesting ways to make Victory Foods into tempting, thrifty, nutritious dishes.

It is said morale is an intangible thing made up of a combination of what is in men’s hearts and minds, —and in their stomachs. This is considered by the Government an important factor in building morale in the armed forces and no less necessary to the healthy well being of the civiban population.

Your GardenBy A. C. McLEAN N. J. Extension Service

With most outdoor planting operations now finished for the year, the main job in the garden now is to get plants ready for winter. This might be called “putting( them in cold storage, for that is what properly applied protection really does.

Although bulbs and perennials, as every gardener knows, can be adequately protected by mulching, woody plants—both deciduous and evergreens sometimes need more than a mulch. Evergreens, for instance, are subject to winter-burning on cold days when the sun is shining. This happens when the wind draws moisture out of the leaves faster than the roots can absorb it from the soil. One of the best ways to prevent this is to surround the plants with burlap or any other course material which will provide protection from wind and sun. In the wild, this protection is generally provided by surrounding trees and shrubs, for most evergreens of the North Temperate zone grow naturally

on a north bank or among

must be buried in soil and a mulch applied afterwards. This is the safest way to handle fig s .

For really hardy shrubs, of course, a mulch of some coarse material five or six inches deep is usually sufficient winter protection. It does the principal job of keeping the ground from freezing so deep that the plant roots cannot get water.

Donahay Lead Cut in Half by Recount

Freehold Reports Say Interesting Developments Can Be Expected.

Counting will be resumed today at Freehold in the recount of the Nov.3 election between E. Donald Sterner and Joseph L. Donahay for surrogate, when the final districts in the city o f Long Branch will be checked, but reports current about the county ■court house indicated that the most interesting developments of the recount can be anticipated next week.

With approximately 100 ballots in Dong Branch districts referred to Judge John C. Giordano for decision the net result of the recount hangs an the balance pending the ruling by Uhe court. As of yesterday Donahay’s lead of 84 appeared to have been cut in half, with one fourth of the 80 districts in the recount order -completed.

No one connected with either politica l party involved in the election would venture an opinion as to the outcome of the referred ballots, and neither would any one confirm what -developments are anticipated next week. Reports were current, however, | that the Sterner forces anticipated favorable breaks as the recount ad- ! vances but there was nothing to in- \ dicate what created the basis for this j optimism.

■Sterner’s hopes of upsetting the ver- j diet soared Friday when a recount of the third district of the third ward in Long Branch gave him a net gain o f 42 votes, half the 84-vote margin Donahay had at the start of the recount. His counsel, J. Victor Carton, ■Intimated that for the first time fraud would be charged in the election when lie appeared later before Judge John *G. Giordano to whom 100 ballots have ! been referred for decision.

Judge Giordano thereupon ordered I ^Prosecutor John J. Quinn, who is a 1

member of the Democratic candidate’s ' array of counsel, to investigate the district returns in his role as prosecutor.

The district returns failed to tally in several respects. Some ballots, which observers intimated were marked by the same person, bore erasures. Until the court rules on referred ballots any attempt to tally the net result of the recount will be pure speculation.

Course Given for Nurses Now at Camp Evans

The Monmouth County Organization for Social Service has made it possible for the group of registered nurses now employed at Camp Evans, and who are engaged in health program activities at the camp, to be included in a series of lectures on public health nursing. It is believed that through these series of lectures they are able to better acquaint themselves with agencies and methods existing in Monmouth county.

Miss Harriet B. Cook, education director of the M.C.O.S.S., is acting as instructor for the group. Miss Cook is interpreting Monmouth county to the group and is also giving them a background in the techniques of public health nursing so that they may become more proficient in this specialized field of generalized nursing.

“By giving this service to the nurses at Camp Evans”, said Miss Evelyn T. Walker, director of health and welfare of the M.C.O.S.S., “our organization is continuing its 30 years of building up our country a generalized public health program of which we should all feel proud. We have always worked in close harmony with all existing agencies and we are anxious to assist this new agency in our country to understand us and work with us in this all-out war effort.

Nurses attending the course are: Mrs. Gwendolyn Ward, supervisor; Miss Katherine Schultz, Mrs. Helen Peck, Mrs. Selina West and Miss Ruth Schadt.

council is sponsoring a scrap drive. As every one knows, there is a great need for scrap and ’Squan is reacting eagerly.

There is a large scrap pile in back of the school, and if a student has any particularly heavy piece of scrap, he may contact his homeroom representative and it will be picked up by a truck which has been donated for this purpose.

The scrap brought in is weighed and recorded in favor of the student’s homercom.

Each homeroom has a Student council representative on the committee for the scrap drive.

What you can do when you"BLOW OUT A FUSE"

1 TRACE THE CAUSE. W hen a fuse “ blows out’ ’ a faulty appliance or a frayed or defective cord may be the reason. Trace the cause and disconnect the lamp or appliance.

2 • REPLACE THE FUSE. Replacing a “ blown out” fuse is as simple as replacing a lamp bulb. Simply fo llow the directions below. Better get a supply o f extra Underwriter Approved fuses and keep them handy. Be sure the faulty cord or appliance is repaired before it is put back into service.

your meter box, and standing on a dry surface, turn off the electricity.

Unscrew the “ blown out” fuse, touching only its top. You can tell it by the burned patch in the window on top o f fuse.

Replace with one o f the same size as clearly marked on fuse. Turn on main switch.

FIX FAULTY PLUGS AND CORDS

WRONG WAY

Wrong. Wires not put around the prongs first.

RIGHT WAY

Right. Wires put around the prongs. When cord is yanked or jerked, pressure is put on the prongs.

Clean away the frayed or crumbled part.

Tape up each wire separately, using electrician’s tape.

Then tape wires together. Adhesive tape cakes and cracks very quickly.

Reinsert wire in plug, and screw in place.

CORD FRAYED NEAR PLUG

Unloosen screws and pull Cut off frayed part o f the wire,wire out.

Where “ A” doesn’t fit snugly into “ B,” plug “ B’sy springs may have lost their “ tension.”

Bend plug “ A’s” prongs apart with your fingers. Just enough to get a snug fit.

Or bend out the ends o f the prongs with a pair o f pliers.

Hagaman Speaks at Men's Club Dinner

One of the finest men’s meetings ever held in the First Methodist church took place Tuesday evening when 60 men sat down to a delicious dinner, prepared by the ladies of the church.

C. Lyle Hagaman, of Lakewood, known thruout the eastern states as an outstanding after dinner speaker, was the speaker. He reminded the men that the greatest things in our present existence should be the nation and church interest, looking forward through these to a great world brotherhood. He recited his own experience of revitalized church relationship, when his oldest boy reminded him “ that if it was essential for him to go to church, then dad should go with him.” He challenged the men to take their sons to the church, and help the church build the type of character that is needed in this compler civilization.

William T. Drew, president of the Men’s Fellowship club, was the toastmaster. He introduced Mayor Leon T. Abbott, who greeted the men. G. Edwin Parslow favored with selections on his solovox, and Mrs. William Franklin, violinist, accompanied by Miss Margaret R. VanMater, church organist, favored with violin solos. The minister, Rev. Lawrence G. Atkinson, spoke briefly of the program o f the club, and led in the group singing of “Marines Hymn’ ’and several other songs. The meeting closed with the “Pledge of Allegiance” to the flag. Games followed.

These dinner meetings will be held the last Monday in each month, and on December 28 Dr. William Stanley Carrick, world-wide traveler, will be the speaker. Among those present were: William H. Hurley, HowardHayes, John N. Garrabrandt, Herbert! Haberstick, Harry L. Cleaver, Austin | Heyniger, Mayor Leon T. Abbott, El- merLottes, Harold D. Webb, James A. i Jarrett, Leon Apgar, John A.

Bohlers Receive $2,500 For Accident Injuries

Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Bohler, 102 Curtis avenue, West Belmar, were awarded $2,500 by a jury in circuit court at Freehold Tuesday for injuries received in 1941 when their car was struck by a bus of the Manhattan Coach Lines on Route 34 north of Colts Neck. The jury awarded $1,500 to Mrs. Bohler and $1,000 to her husband.

The Bohlers were hurt when the bus hit their car and forced it across the road into the path of southbound vehicles. Arthur Birdsall and Thomas Madigan of Belmar appeared as counsel for the Bohlers.

Enemy spies like to report exactly what fighting men are where and what equipment they have.

At first thought it might seem harmless to say that Willie Jones was with the Nth Field Artillery in Australia. But by picking up such items here and there an enemy agent could piece together the whole story of General MasArthur’s manpower, his equipment and what special training his troops haveh ad.

Anyone having this information could make a good guess how the troops would be used, and how strong a force would be needed to defeat them.

Guild Has Christmas PartyThe Women’s Guild of the Presby-

erian church, meeting Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. A. Downey Osborn, 519 Sixth avenue, held a Christmas party at which time members exchanged gifts. At a business meeting it was voted to fill a stocking for .a needy family.

Those present were Mrs. William T. Lins, Mrs. Edward C. Broege, Mrs. Neil Denise, Mrs. Clarence Edwards, Mrs. William F. Murray, Mrs. Mellvin Harris, Mrs. James Pierce, Mrs. Chester Davison and Mrs. Norman Miles.

Belmar commissioners wrestled with legal problems involved in the case of George Hayward, operator of a tap- room at Ocean and Third avenues, when they were asked Tuesday in a letter from Alfred E. Driscoll, state alcoholic beverage commissioner, what action they had taken on charges that Hayward permitted the sale of alcoholic beverages to minors last August 25.

The commission has taken no action, having reserved decision October 30 when a hearing was held. The reason for the delay in the decision is that Hayward’s license expired the following day, Nov. 1, and he has not applied for a renewal since he operates [ under a seasonal license which is effective only in the summer months.

Mayor Leon T. Abbott pointed out that if the board finds Hayward guil- j ty and suspends a license which no ■

Commissioner Carl W. Schroeder said the delay was “negligence on the part of the ABC. This case was in the office for two months. It looks to me as though everybody was on a vacation.”

Mayor Abbott said the commission would have to impose some penalty if it found Hayward guilty or the ABC would criticize the borough. He said he was told the ABC was short of help and this accounted for the delay “but if we held a case up two months they wouldn’t accept our explanation if we said we were short of help.”

Commissioner Schroeder said the case was inefficiency on the part o f the ABC for waiting so long when they had evidence last August “and We shouldn’t take the rap for them.”

longer exists the penalty is meaningless. If no application is made by Hayward for a license in 1943 it would be unfair, he said, to invoke a suspension against, any other person occupying the premises.

As a result Borough Clerk James A. Joeck was instructed to write Driscoll J and ask his advice in the matter.

Chief cause of the dilemna is the j fact that Driscoll’s department waited j two months before instructing the i

THE D EM O CRAT SUSPENDS . . .Conditions related to the war have forced the suspension of

T he M onm outh Democrat, a weekly newspaper established at Freehold 108 years ago when Andrew Jackson was a candidate for president. Thus another of the pioneer journals of New Jersey passes, its presses stilled by the encroachment of war and the increasing trend toward one-newspaper communities.

In the days when newspapers were distinct party journals T he Democrat exerted an influence on Monmouth politics as well as journalism. In later years it, like others, acquired a more objective viewpoint toward the news but it always retained the party masthead as a reminder of the motive which governed its founding.

Newspapermen are a sentimental lot when a paper suspends.The public senses this when papers of large circulation, such as the old N e w Y ork W orld, write the trade’s symbol “30” for the last edition. Though its circulation was small T he Democrat survived eight wars and as many periods of depression. Its passing is mourned by those in the newspaper field who were acquainted with the era of personal journalism which it represented.

THE STERN ER-DON AHAY RECO U N T . . .Enough evidence has been uncovered in the current recount

of the vote between E. Donald Sterner and Joseph L. Donahay to warrant the observation that fraud exists in some election districts to a degree warranting public scrutiny.

Regardless of the outcome of the recount there are ample indications that more than honest mistakes have occurred. Whether there has been fraud in past elections which was concealed because recounts were never undertaken cannot be determined, but if the current checkup of the vote serves no other purpose than to discourage fraudulent voting in the future it will have justified the action taken by Mr. Sterner.

Fraudulent voting smacks at the heart of free elections. It weakens public confidence in the sanctity of the ballot to the extent that it discourages many from voting, since it creates the cynical belief that elections are dishonest anyway.

Neither Mr. Sterner nor Mr. Donahay would condone fraud at the polls. If misguided supporters of any political candidate Axis are progressing favorably, Sec- stoop to such low tactics it remains the obligation of political mari'ed the sUuation as follows; (1) leaders to publicly renounce such deviltry, and serve notice on the offenders that if the law doesn’t see that they get their just dues at least public respect will be denied to them.

FEDERAL SUBSIDY FO R JERSEY C ITY . . .T he N ew ark E vening N ew s is performing a distinct public

service by disclosing the practice of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in connection with Jersey City bank assets taken over by the federal agency. These disclosures, coming at a time when the credit of Jersey City is questionable in view of the high tax rates already imposed, warrant congressional inquiry.

T h e N ew s has shown how lots and improved properties which were practically worthless because of confiscatory taxes were redeemed by the F.D.I.C. with federal funds in order to keep Jersey City solvent. Huge amounts were paid in taxes to Jersey City by the F.D.I.C. at the same time that another agency, the Home Owners Loan corporation, was appealing assessments. In an objective manner T he N ew s reports that John Milton, counsel for Mayor Hague, is also New Jersey counsel for the F.D.I.C.

If the Jersey City deals were above the table the F.D.I.C. should welcome investigation of these tax payments.

Army furloughs will be granted between December 12 and January 12 to no more than 10 per cent of the enlisted strength of .any camp or station at any one time. Mr. Stimson said many young officers have been transferred from Washington jobs to combat duty, and they will continue to be transferred until at least two- thirds of the officers on duty in Washington will be men more than 35. The Federal Communications Commission announced that after December 1 members of the armed forces and persons sending money to them will receive a 50 per cent rate reduction on domestic money orders up to $25.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOREDITOR, The Coast Advertiser: Sir—

It is only through enforced absence from one’s home .and one’s home twon that one can really appreciate the old saying: "There’s no Place Like Home.” If we leave of our own volition, that is, without some definite and urging necessity, we can of course always come back when we feel a bit homesick but the boys in the service are not so fortunate. They cannot come home When they feel lonely and blue, and dispirited by enforced absence which, although seemingly unnecessary, is none the less founded on necessity. Therefore it is with genuine pleasure that most of us look forward to the day the ‘Advertiser’ arrives. There is a vicarious pleasure in reading in its lines the daily life and happenings we s much miss. There is a sense of awareness about it which it seems to impart to the reader, an awareness not only of home but of cur friends and neighbors as well. For while a letter may be, and usually is, more intimate it is far too limited in its scope, too personal, adequately to satisfy our desire for all those intangible contained within the one word, ‘home.’

I have been intending, for quite j some time, I must ask you to accept my apology—to write and thank you for this pleasure which you have so

being what it is, well—I’m just getting around to it now, although we are as yet not ‘on the line’ they keep us rather busy and we have very little time to ourselves. I hope you will accept my apologies, and my thanks, and may the ‘Advertiser’ continue to cheer up others as it now cheers me.

Sincerely,PVT. L. C. MORRIS

The Germans have failed in all their main objectives for the year in Russia and will have to withdraw from wide areas unless they can stop the Russian counter-offensive. (2) The Allies are building up strong assult forces in Tunisia to oust the Axis, but the enemy there will “offer strong resistnce.” (3) American .and Australian troops have cornered substantial numbers of Japanese troops between Gona and Buna in New Guinea. (4) Although weather conditions make extensive activity difficult in the Aleutians, American fliers are doing everything possible to harass the enemy.

Communiques during the week reported Allied forces in North Africa destroyed 100 Axis planes and 21 medium tanks at the cost of nine Allied planes destroyed and four damaged. The War Department estimated U. S. Army .and Navy casualties from the initial landings in the North African operations: Army—killed, 350;

killed, 10; wounded, 150; missing, 150.

TransportationThe Public Roads Administration (

said its surveys show the average speed of passenger cars on rural highways since the institution of the 35 mile-an,-hour speed limit has been reduced to 37 miles per hour and trucks to 36 miles per hour. Another survey showed that in 12 war plants in six States the majojrity of the employes travel to work by automobile. Office of Defense Transportation Director Eastman recommended that buses and street cars space their stopping places in cities at distances ffom 600 to 1,200 feet. He said any distance less than 500 feet would be wasteful of rubber, gasoline and equipment.

RationingRubber Director Jeffers stated that

unless tires are conserved the U. S. by nation-wide gasoline rationing until synthetic rubber production gets into full swing in 1944, the United Nations’ rubber stockpile will be reduced to “considerably below the point of reasonable safety.” In 1943, there will only be 30 million tires, including recaps, available for automobiles, compared with a normal demand of 48 million tires. “If all goes well,” Mr. Jeffers said, “we should be able to allocate important quanities of rub-

Sharp Drop in Auto Deaths in Jersey

TRENTON—New Jersey will finish 1942 with less than 750 traffic fatalities, the lowest in 19 years, according to an estimate by Motor Vehicle Commissioner Arthur W. Magee.

The nearest approach to the 750 figure was in the year 1923 when 759 casualties were reported. In that year, however, there were but 427,000 motor vehicles registered and 501,000 drivers licensed. This year, vehicles in use exceed 1,100,000 and the number of drivers well over 1,300,000.

Commissioner Magee makes his estimate on the basis of reports for the first 10 months of the year which Show a total of 628 deaths. November will finish with less than 50 deaths as against 109 last November and this game downward trend should continue through December which last year recorded 112 fatalities.

October, which was the first full month of the 35 mile per hour war speed, had a 35 percent drop in deaths, 85 to 55. ■* j *)

Although fatalities decreased 16 percent on a statewide basis during the first 10 months, there are still nine counties which have failed to reduce their traffic casualties. They are Camden, Cape May, Essex, Hudson, Mercer, Passaic, Sussex and Union counties, all of which report increases while Warren county showed no change from last year. The greatest numerical decrease has been in Middlesex county where fatalities dropped from 68 to 36, or 47 percent. Bergen county ranks second in the reduction column with 28 fewer deaths and Monmouth third with 21.

Jews Observe the Festival of Lights

The following is reprinted from Synagogue Life, the publication of the Congregation Sons of Israel of Belmar:

C H A N U K A H (The Festival of Lights)

Beginning Thursday evening, December 3, 1942, corresponding to the 25th day of the Hebrew month Kis- lev, and for eight days thereafter is the Jewish festival Chanukah. Chanukah, otherwise known as the Festival of Lights, is based upon the following Talmudic story;

When Antiochus Epiphanes became king of Syria and Palestine, he began to persecute the Jews. As an enemy of both Jews and Judaism, he wanted to destroy our religion and exterminate our people. To accomplish this vicious purpose he forbade our forefathers from studying the Torah and the practice of its commandments.

He inflicted the penalty of death upon those who disobeyed his evil decree. Greek idols were placed in the Holy Temple (Beis Hamikdashi and our ancestors were ordered to worship them. Fortunately, the majority of our people remained loyal and faithful to Judaism. Many of them hid in caves and secretely observed the laws of our Torah. Many openly defied the oppressive decrees of Antiochus and publicly observed the precepts of the Torah at the risk of their lives.

When Jewish suffering marked a climax a bright star appeared. The aged and venerable head of the Chashmonean, “Matishyahu” , the High Priest, and his five sons urged the Judeans to fight the alien oppressor. “I and my sons,” said Matishyahu, “will never give up our faith. We will fight against the enemy Antiochus with all our might and means.” His slogan was “Whoever is for G-d shall go with me”. Thus he organized an army of brave men. Gradually this army grew in number and strength. After the death of Matishyahu his third son, Judas, named the Macabee, became the leader.

Fighting with the ferocity of lions the Judean army won one battle after another, overwhelmed the Syrian forces and recaptured . Jerusalem. Soon they removed from the Holy Beis Hamisdash all Greek idols and images.

On the 25th day of Kislev the Judeans rested. They no longer had to fight. But a new problem arose. Upon entering the temple they found only a small flask of oil, enough for just one day. However, a miracle took place and the limited supply of oil lasted for eight days. It is for this reason that Chanukah, the Festival of Lights, is celebrated each year for eight days, during which we light an appropriate number of candles each night, say special prayers and sing songs for this joyful holiday.

Dim-Out infractions At Camp Evans Cited .

Violation of dim-out regulations at Camp Evans was called to the attention of state defense authorities at a meeting Tuesday night in Freehold called to outline means of enforcing the new dim-out regulations. Military ■authorities at Fort Monmouth said any violations at the Wall township post would be corrected.

Police Chief Vernon Shibla, chairman of fhe Wall township defense council, said that visible illumination at the camp had been reduced but that some lights can still be seen for a considerable distance. He said the matter was brought up because it is difficult to enforce regulations among civilians outside the camp unless lights on the post are properly dimmed.

Local officials were told .at the meeting how to measure candiepower from show windows.
