Fires Under Control

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. All
forest fires in the state are under
control except two reports received
by the conservation commission to-
day indicated. One of these today
was raging five miles north of
Sullivan county,
and the other was blaze at Robb
Creek, Fulton county. which was
brought under control Sunday night
but broke out again yesterday.
District rangers reported four new
fires which they have succeeded in
bringing under control.
Ranger Ferris of Cold Springs re-
ported that the fire on Mount Bea-
con had been brought under control
after a 36-hour fight. This fire
burned over 1000 acres.
Weather forecasts today failed to
hold out any hope of relieving the
dangerous fire hazard which still
exists in many sections. No rain has
fallen for five weeks. Snow on the
tops of the Adirondack Mountains
has materially lessened the hazard
in that locality.

NEWARK, Nov. 4.-Forest fires
which were driven fast through
timberlands along the Raritan river
at High Bridge and Washington on
Sunday and Monday were practical
ly out today and entirely within con-
troll after burning over ESQ acres.
Although the timber in this area was
entirely destroyed it was unmarked
able second growth of the ordinary
mountain hardwoods.
A great loss is believed to have
resulted in the destruction of small
game, the territory being the free
haunt of thousands of rabbits and
recently had been heavily stocked
with English pheasants. Most of the
latter. however, are believed to have
flown before the approaching flames
to safety.
Only a few men are patrolling the
district today, engaged in subduing
small blazes which spring up and
guarding against a renewal of dam
aging fires.
Reports reaching North Jersey
points of the fires which, climbing
the Ramapo mountains near Suf-
to that town on Sunday. said that
the Ramapo fire is practically out to-
day. After burning over an area
nine miles long and destroying val
liable. marketable oak. pine. and
cedar, only a few small blazes re-
NAMED today, necessitating the use
of only half of yesterdays freight
ing force to watch 1t.
Other small forest fires which
sprang up in three North Jersey To-
calities on Sunday are entirely out
today and are reported to have
caused little damage.

Forests Until Grave
Danger Is Passed
RAIN GREATLY NEEDED
Urges Cooperation of All
Citizens with Forest
Fire Service
| RAIN GREATLY NEEDED

TRENTON, Nov. 4-Governor Sill
zer today issued a statement enJoin-
ing the use of state forests for recre-
ational purposes until the danger of
forest fires, due to the unusually dry
weather, has passed. The governor
pointed to the highly infiammable
materials now in wooded lands. with
the cunning season, opening Novem-
Der 10. as adding additional hazards
to forest fires.
The executive statement said:
Whereas, New Jersey has two
million acres of forest which are
commercially of vast potential value
and are necessary for the well-being
recreation and enjoyment of all
citizens, and
Whereas, due to a long period
of unusually dry weather and to the
seasonal fall of the foliage, the forest
floor is covered with highly infiam-
mable material, and the danger of
forest fires Is imminent, and
Whereas, at this time of the year
many campers, motorists and Others
seeking recreation are in the forests,
and
whereas, on November 10 the
cunning season will open, bringing
some seventy lHOuodilQ uIHCtS
into the forests. and
Whereas, the resources and ener-
gies of the Forest Fire Service will
be taxed to the utmost to prevent
fires from becoming serious,
Now, therefore, I, George s. Sill
ger. governor of the state of New Jer.
sey, do urge and request all c.tizens
of the state to cooperate with ward
ems of the, Forest Fire Service by re-
porting all fires discovered and by
rendering every possible aid in ex-
tinguishing them.
"I further request that motorists
campers, hunters and others who
use for pleasure or profit the forests
of our state, carefully refrain from
making fires where under-brush, dry
grass, leaves and decayed vegetation
abound and from throwing away
lighted cigars, cigarettes and matches
in such places.
"In view of this weather condition
all persons are enjoined from the use
of state forests for recreational pur-
poses until the emergency is passed.
