Conserve Wool, WPB Suggests In responRe to numerous inquiries, R. R. Guthrie, chief of the Textiles, Clothing and Leather -Goods Branch, explained today the official position «f the War Production Board on the question of women knitting sweaters for soldiers and sailors. “The War Production Board,” said Mr. Guthrie, “does want wo- . men to knit sweaters where absolutely needed by the armed forces and where the commanding officers ask for the supplies. “It is our opinion that the average soldier or sailor is adequately clothed by the government and doesn't need additional clothing. However, there are exceptions. Our boys in Iceland are such an exception. They can make good use of additional clothing. The same may be true of soldiers sent into the field on long campaigns,” Guthrie continued. "On the whole, we don’t want a broad wave of knitting that will consume millions of pounds of wool that is needed for more essential ^“fhis^s the system we have set up with the Red Cross. _ When a commanding officer desires such additional clothing as sweaters, he will apply to the Red Cross, the Red Cross will then arrange foi* the sweaters to be knitted. "In this way, every sweater knitted will serve a purpose and there will be no waste of material, to say nothing of the labor of some patriotic woman. We welcome the cooperation of women in knitting for the armed forces the things they need, after the commanding officers have informed the Red

CARGOES INSURED

THE CAMDEN TRUST COMPANY

In the midst of war travail The Camden Trust Company discontinues its Cape May Branch, having served the people of this area for three-quarters of a century. It was in the eyes of many a symbol of Cape May traditions, rendering a modern and timely service. It is regrettable on many counts that the earnest efforts of Officers and Directors and a loyal staff failed to develop conditions under which The Camden Trust Company could continue. The trend of business conditions, in so far as it tends to decrease the number of banks in any community, is not altogether wholesome. .The passing of any important institution devolves a new duty upon its survivors in the same field. Such a duty now falls upon The Merchants National Bank, which sincerely regretting the withdrawal of The Camden Trust Company, will endeavor to the best of its ability to meet its enlarged responsibility. JOHN T. HEWITT, President.
