■“I feel that our commercial fishermen should be permitted to fish and to help in reporting unusual occurrences off-shore,” Scott

de-lared.

“If there is any foundation to the rumors that some fishermen are aiding enemy craft, the Naval intelligence bureau should prosecute those who are guilty and lift the cloud of suspicion which now hovers over all those en-

creational facilities.

The sum of $203,887,000 spent in New Jersey by tourists and vacationists during 1940, from a report of the U. S. Travel Bureau, and it has been estimated by the same bureau that there was a 20 per cent increase

The Travel Bureau timated that $7,000,000,000 will be spent by tourists and vacationists in the United States during 1942, even though the war continues in

progress.

Ingram, widow of a former Dennisville missionary, who was slain in China eight years ago. Mrs. Ingram, the former Myrtle H. Brough, of Harrisburg, Pa., died of typhus, relatives were told. She was 75 years old and had been in China since her marriage in 1895. Her jiusband was killed in an attack by Chinese bandits when he attempted to shield her and three grandchildren.

for commercial fishing craft from all South Jersey ports, Scott said the fishermen were willing to take their chances against enemy action in coastal waters if they should be given an opportunity to resume fishing operations. "All the commercial fishermen in this area resent the implications that they are participating in subversive activities,” Scott said, "and I feel that we should do everything possible to have

this ban lifted.”

The commission expressed the view that it would be comparatively simple for local Naval authorities to check on the fuel loads and cargoes of out-bound fishing boats before they leave the harbor, if there is a suspicion of boats aiding enemy craft.

Basis of the movement is that more houses are needed in - this communitv to provide adequate housing facilities for the officers and personnel of the armed forc-

es stationed here.

The OPM recently conducted a survey and reported unfavorably on Cape May's request because, the report said, “it was found no considerable number of defense workers were employed in The commission pointed out that the need for housing is particularly acute among the officers and men of the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Army and the Coast
