ICE MUST BE RATIONED
FOR TWO WEEKS MORE
Committee Urges Continued Re-
strictions to Prevent Waste
- of Reduced Supplies

The present rate of reduction in
supplying ice to householders and other
consumers. as fixed by the commission
appointed some time ago by Director
krusen to avoid a famine, will be con =
tinued two weeks. as result of de
cision arrived at by a committee of the
commission. of which Jay Cooke. the
former food commissioner, is chairman.
The committee. gave out the following
statement.
THE ice shortage in PHILADELPHIA
July 10 is approximately SO 900 tons,
as compared with an estimated stock
in storage as of July 1 of so 900 tons.
Sales of ice have increased for the
period of July to Is, as compared
with the same period of last year.
approximately 30 per cent. and this
increase even with the conservation
methods employed since the signing Of
the agreement on July ..
The committee believes the large
increase due primarily to the extremely
hot weather during the first week in
July, when there were no restrictions.
The committee further decided that
it would continue the present rate
of reduction for a further period of
two weeks, unless extremely hot
weather should be experienced. when il
may become necessary to take further
action.
1T is the desire of the committee
to give the largest possible supply of
ice to the people of Philadelphia com :
mensurate with the situation, as it may
develop, and wishes to express its
thanks for their co operation up to
date and to ask for a continuance of
the same"

The resignation Of Bishop Frederick
Kinsman, of the Episcopal diocese of

received here with varying views.
The Rev. DR.. Samuel Upjohn. rector
Of st. Luke's Church. Germantown

the bishops liking

'"wiIl regret exceedingly to learn of
Doctor Kinsman'S rcSignatiOn
Bishop Kinsman. as nm Oxford
man. has proved himself scholarly and
we'll learned. and he is one who would
be greatly missed from active and off e.
cial participation in the affairs of the
church.
I'VE hope he may be called to post
Of learning in the church where his
services would be of great value His
resignation. of course, has still to be
acted upon by the House of Bishops. -
The Rev. David Steele. d. H., rector
of the Church of st. Luke and the
Epiphany. said
Il do not know Bishop Kinsman. but
the reasons he advances ,or mis- resig =

using them as a very weak shield for an
ultcrior purpose or else he is very un
familiar with terms and phraseOlogy

''As far as I know the Protestant
Episcopal Church has never tolerated
denials of the faith in any degree. nor
