New Dim-Out Order Issued For Shoreline Major General Irving J. Phillipson on Monday issued regulations covering the dimming of lights along the Atlantic seaboard within the Second Corps Area. General Phillipson issued these regulations under the broad powers conferred upon him by Exec- ' utive Order 9066. “Attempts have been made to dim this shore lighting on a voluntary basis,” the General said. "This has not been entirely effective. It is now found necessary to control shore lighting along the coast of this Corps Area, first through the enforcement of definite regulations for the dimming of lights; and second, if this does not prove efficacious, then to enforce a complete blackout in a locality which fails to meet the provided requirements; or, third, to enforce a complete blackout along the entire coast.” The new dimming orders cover the entire Atlantic coast from Long Island Sound to Delaware Bay, extending up the bay to Deep Water Point. The 'regulations cover an area 16 miles inland from the coast. (Regulations follow: All exterior lights used for illumination of streets, roads, highways and parkways will be shaded so as to prevent their direct rays being visible from the sea or shining at an angle above the horizontal. Exterior lighting that cannot be so shaded sljall be extinguished. Public street and highway lights adjacent to the coast'and normally visible from seaward shall be reduced in number or candlepower to the utmost extent consistent with traffic safety and shall be so screened by paint or other material as to prevent their direct rays shining in a seaward direction. Exterior lights along boardwalks, places of amusement, hotels and commercial establishments along the shoreline, jiot necessary to highway traffic, shall be extinguished between sundown and sunrise each night. The windows of all commercial establishments shall be so screened or shaded as to prevent direct rays of lights being visible from the sea and in such manner that an excessive degree of indirect illumination therefrom is avoided. Windows and other outlets of a 11 commercial establishments, hotels or dwellings, adjacent to the coast, shall be so shaded or darkened that direct lights therefrom shall not shine to seaward and illumination therefrom shall not be visible at a distance greater than one mile from shore. Automobiles parked, or imwing where their lights are visible from seaward, shall not use their bright lights. Nightly inspections from the sea will be made to determine the effectiveness of this dimming out.

Job Bureau To Help In Study Of Skills For War Industry

—

Every-ship the Navy launches offers opportunities for men to learn trades which will earn them a livelihood the rest of their lives.

The Wildwood office of the U. S. Employment Service for New Jersey will cooperate with the Selective Service local boards in the area served by the Wildwood office in making. an inventory of manpower and skills for war production purposes, according to Harry W. Hepning, manager of the offioe located at 3313 New Jersey avenue, Wildwood. Each man who receives a Selective Service occupational questionnaire may secure assistance in filling out his quefipnnaire from his employer, laiy union, any member of the Selective Service local advisory board for registrants or from any office of the U. S- Employment Service. No fee will be charged for this

service.

Employers and local unions are urged to provide facilities for assistance to workers in completing the questionnaire. Local offices oj the Employment Service will, be glad to confer with representatives of volunteer assistance groups so that the information contained in the questionnaires may be of maximum value. The offices are open from 8:30 a.m. to 6:16 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, and from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays. A questionnaire will be mailed to every man between 20 and 45 years of age who registered for Selective Service on February 16. They must be filled out and returned to the Selective Service boards within ten days after they are received. The local board keeps one part of the questionnaire and sends the other identical part to the local employment office in its area. The employment offices will examine the occupational questionnaires which it receives to determine which men are already qualified or can be quickly trained for work in essential war industries. These men will then be asked to come to the local employment office for a fact-finding interview. Workers possessing skills important to war production, but who are not working in war industry or in essential civilian activities, who are willing to be trained and transferred to such work, will be given an opportunity to do so.

TUte purpose of the occupational' registration is to provide the government .with a complete occupational inventory of its manpower, in order: 1. To avoid the induction into the armed forces of men who are urgently needed In war production. 2. To replace workers who are now deferred from military service on occupational grounds whenever possible, with vocational trainees or other qualified persons who, because of age, sex, or other reasons, are not suitable for military service. 3. To speed up war production by promoting the transfer of workers from non-essential to essential work. Following the first occupational registration, the same questionnaire will, also be mailed to those men who registered for Selective Service during 1940 and 1941 (except those already inducted into the armed forces), and later to those men from 46 through 64 who were registered this week. Eventually the government will have information on the occupational skills of the entire male population between 18 and 66

The Selective Service System and the Employment Service will work closely together in carrying out the objectives of the regis-

tration program.

The Employment Service will provide the Selective Service System with current information on the need for workers for war production so that these needs may be taken into account in classifying registrants for deferment or induction into military

rvice.

In any individual case the Em ployment Service will be in a position to provide the Selective Service System with factual information as to whether or not the individual possesses a skill urgently needed by the war d us tries. The Selective Service System will be guided by this information on war production labor needs in
