Canvassers To Start In All Areas Shortly

ing of money to help finam staggering cost of the war. - in urging small investors to buy as heavily a* possible, the government also has other thoughts. •The government,” Mr. Barnbridge explained Monday night,

“is interested in selling a large ’■number of bonds of the smaller

denominations, rather than a relatively small number of large

denominations.

Tt hopes, in this drive, to reach practically everybody, with the thought that bonds in the hands of small investors will help fight inflation, and provide a backlog against unemployment after

the war.

"Obviously, it will be impossible ta find a job for everyone immediately after peace comes. Bonds purchased now will help tide over the unemployed until they again find work. "Investors who are financially able to retain their bonds can use them to buy new refrigerators, automobiles and radios, thus ‘priining the pumps of industry, and hastening the country's return to normal conditions.’’ Chairmen of local committees throughout the county endorsed the thought of Eugene L. White, chairman for Ocean City, who said he hopes to conduct a whirlwind campaign and raise Ocean City’s quota within 10 to 12 days. John T. Hewitt, chairman for Cape May, declared that “if we could open the safe deposit boxes in the county, we could fill n » r quota in ten minutes.”

COURT HOUSE—Permission to include an (80,000 item for bond and interest retirement in Cape May County’s annual highway work program under finances allotted each year by the State Highway Department will be sought by the Board of Freeholders, it was disdosed yesterday.

The board had included the item in its work program budget, but State Highway Commissioner Spencer Miller, Jr., disapproved on the grounds that only (43,000 of the funds were used for that purpose last year. He held that' the new amount could not be in excess of that figure.

Freeholder Ralph T. Stevens, director of revenue and finance, pointed out that inasmuch as no extensive ' highway improvement work could be done at this time due to war conditions, he felt that the money could best be used to reduce the bond and interest obligations of the county.

Acting on his motion, the board instructed its clerk to communicate with the commissioners, axplaining the board's position, and asking permission to carry out its original plan.

They said eastern gasoline inventories were not improving and added that eastern motorists have been using more than their allotted quota of gasoline for the last month.
