Church Marks Anniversary Next Sunday (Continued from Page Oner Members and friends of the Cold Spring church are planning to attend Sunday’s service in large numbers; and many who formerly resided in this area are expected to return for the annual Rally Day. At the evening service on Sunday, a service flag with 13 stars representing men of the locality now in the armed forces will be dedicated. Chaplain Cyril E. Bentley, of the Cape May Naval base, will be the principal speaker at the dedication service. The (Cold Spring Church is one of the first churches established in the Presbytery of Philadelphia. The first structure was built in 1714 and has been succeeded by two other buildings. A landmark in this vicinity for more than two centuries, the “Old Brick Church”, as it is widely known, has been attended by descendants of the earliest settlers who migrated to Cape May County from New England. On church records today are family names which may be traced directly to the early 17th century when the first colonists arrived in Cape May County to pursue the whaling industry.

Governor Approves New Fishing Limit TRENTON — Governor Charles Edison, acting under his wartime authority, last week issued a proclamation relaxing offshore limitations on fishin|: boats trawling from the bottom. Licensed bottom trawlers, heretofore kept two miles from the coast, were permitted by the decree to operate up to one mile from shore. The commercial bottom trawlers had sought easing of the state restriction on the ground that the farher offshore they went the greater the menace from enemy craft. They also contended they would be able to provide more and cheaper fish to help the war

effort.

The Governor's war cabinet- and the State Fish and Game Commission had studied the request for several weeks. A movement to have the fishing limit changed was started here several weeks ago by commercial fishermen who pointed out that the change would result in fuel savings and increased production of fish.

Explains Curtailment Of Electric Service Due to acute shortages of copper and other critical materials, especially metals, the War Production Board has found it necessary to turtail still further the extension and addition of distrb bution lines of the nation's utilities. This was brought out today in an interview with R. E. Swift, vice president and general manager of the Atlantic City Elec-

tric Co.

The general effect of the new restrictions is to deny the electric utilities the privilege of making any line extensions or making any additions to existing line facilities for any customers or establishments which are not directly a part of the war production program of the country. Mr. Swift stated that the new restrictions affected electric service to not only new buildings, but to existing dwellings where additional or newly • purchased electrical equipment is being added. He stressed the fact that in order to avoid misunderstandings it is suggested that the electric company be consulted before any major electrical appliances are purchased and before customers with such appliances move into another home.
