Grangers Protest Dimout Rulings

GOLD SPRING — Protests against dimout regulations and air raid pignals as -they apply to rural Cape May County were voiced by Cape May County Pomona Grange at a meeting here

recently.

The Grange declared that the rule requiring shades to be drawn when lights are lit would be especially objectionable during hot weather. Supporting its poeitibn, the Grangers asserted that automobile headlights throw much more light than ceQing or table lamps in homes. The Pomona members also contended that the window shade ‘ itions are 'not enforced in county reaorta except in the case of windows toward the sea and that some Army and Coast Guard eetehlishmsnU do not require that shades he drawn. The Grange’s views were expreeaed by a special committee in a letter to David H. Agans, state ~ * , asking that the intercede in their

duct classes Under present plans there will be two classes a week for a period of six weeks. One class is held Thursday evenings, and another Friday evenings to assure all volunteers an opportunity to receive the instruction. Although the identification training is not compulsory for volunteers, the Army's First Fighter Command has requested that all who can possibly join the classes do so in order to increase the efficiency and interest in the work. The program is in conjunction with a recruiting drive to jibtain more volunteer plane spotters. Haslett urged the group to enlist new members and -to bring friends to the classes fn order to interest them in the work. In need of more observers to. distribute spotters’ shifts more evenly among the volunteers, Mrs. Ernest Corson, chief observer, this week appealed for new recruits. Anyone interested should call Bell phone Wildwood 2504-R-11, or Keystone Wildwood 840-38. The observation posts throughout the country are valuable not only for spotting planes in national defense, but in aiding pilots in checking on flight

courses.
